Very impressive. This is the way forward for inner city travel/commuting.

we got the general idea that since it has wheels it will roll. how about some info about what powers it, what's the construction like, is it pedalled or electric, is is home made and if so from what? you know,answers that quell curiosity.

ITS A FUTURE ELECTRIC WHEELCHAIR!

I have a Mini 40 Mile Busettii bike and it runs 50-55 miles on one battery charge. I also tried my friends Vortex Mountain bike by Busettii. It ROCKS ! Can get up to 32 mph top speed, and on one charge that bike set the new record of 86 miles. Hope it becomes a big hit. In California many people like Busettii because they cost around $1700 but can go 50--86 miles on one charge depending on model. Maria in Cali
Nifty idea building "Frameless" but knowing my lard butt, ill need a nice steel frame to support me. If working carbon fibre were cheaper and more forgiving, and i had a great local mentor i would be all down on this for my future build.

The plywood structure is very strong and I'm certain a glass/ carbon fiber unit would work well. The suspension system is the key.

The Bricycle prototype is powered by a Crystalyte 404 hub motor with a 16" rim, pedals for a backup. It is made almost entirely of 1/8" marine plywood covered with fiberglass and has no frame. The front fork assembly and rear suspension are bonded to the wood structure. I have logged more than 1000 miles on the prototype and have has only one structural failure which loosened the front fork carrier but the Bricycle was still able to make it home. I have reached 38 mph on the flat.

Sorry it took so long. I don't recall the title or artist. I selected from the list that YouTube offers.

Ohio law does not require a "bike" to be made of a particular material. The structure of my prototype is 3mm marine plywood covered with one layer of fiberglass cloth. I have logged over 300 miles since last September, driven when the temp was 12 degrees F, and today 91 degrees, I have has no structural problems.
