I like the idea. I hope he actually brings it to production.

I like it more for Art (and I am NOT one of those guys) than as an actual bike LOL!

Well, time will tell.

The Segway, for all the hype, hasn't really panned out in terms of revolutionizing anything.

Now as for treating cardboard for use in some types of aircraft, I think that's an idea that could actually fly, especially for sailplanes and ultralights.

Interesting.

Looks like it really stands a chance of taking off in some poorer countries.
