Let's have a thread about weird shit
the Can-Am Spyder was released in 2007, is not even the first such tricycle, and it had actual linked steering that worked properly Why are bicycle "engineers" so fucking retarded?
>>2073746Buddy engineers are just fucking retards. The competent ones are few and far between.
>>2073746Are you blind?
>>2073746It's more like a Niken. The Niken works because it has independent suspension on each wheel and motorcycles are heavy and fast enough that the suspension actually works in normal riding though (as opposed to just hard bumps like MTB shocks), not sure how you'd do that on a bicycle.
>>2073728>my heavy shitty bike isn't heavy enough and has too little rolling resistance, how can we solve this?
>>2074770>>2073728use case for a second wheel in the front when they're only a few inches apart?
>>2074770The niken also has one handlebar instead of just welding two bike front ends together and joining them at the handlebars with a mending plate off of Harbor Freight
>>2074770looks like slop lmao
>>2074780Wider tires and bigger wheels actually help rolling resistance. Look it up.
>>2074770This is so fucking cool. Post prompt?
>>2075117>when you're so far into npc territory that you can't even guess or come up with a prompt
>>2075118Imagine being so poor that you think of your own prompts.
>>2075119Imagine using AI instead of your own skills.
>>2075121Imagine being so poor you can't afford Data Center Tokens.
>>2075122>thinks using cheap online services is a sign of wealthIf you had money you'd use your own hardware you larping unimaginative faggot who takes the bus
>>2075123You're such a poorfag it's insane. The DOW went over 50,000. Try doing that at home with your chinese ram, lmao.
>>2075125>posted from the bus
>>2075125>he doesn't have a 2nm photolithography plant for his personal usengmi
>>2075117>PROMPT?>YOU GOT A PROMPT FOR THAT?!
>>2073728
>>2075122I buy photography equipment instead of renting cheap server time like a fucking poorfag.
>>2074783grandmas who cant lean. seriously. there was an italian moped that did it first and that was the stated use case. it's basically a high powered mobility scooter
>>2075392the niken and the piaggio mp3 do lean, though. they're only stable tripods with the steering column locked, because unlike the retarded monstrosity in OP, those bikes have complex suspension linkages that allow the bike to lean over while maintaining both front contact patches
>>2075585>bikeforce of habit, call it a reverse trike or whatever
>>2074783No wobble. You are locked in for the width of the shoulders anyway, why not use that as the wheelbase maximum?
>>2075145What's weird about that? That's how I step off my bike every day while rolling the last couple meters to the bike slot
>>2075779it's a meme because people who don't ride don't think it's possible and is a photoshop. that post was almost certainly ironic unless it was a train guy posting or something.
>>2075801>because people who don't ride don't think it's possible and is a photoshop.I refuse to believe people are that dumb
>>2075805you see it posted on all the boards on this site and normies invariably respond saying how obviously fake it is. or they did anyway, when it was first going around.
>>2075902Examples?
>>2075585yeah the piaggio locks automatically at low speed though (at least its supposed to, its not a perfect system). I tried to get my aunt to buy one since she has trouble with cars these days. she can't actuate the brake and accelerator pedal, but her arms are okay.
some dude near me owns a piaggio and while it still looks gay in pictures and sounds gay in concept, it's actually pretty neat to see in person. and they still lean quite a bit. probably more than an equivalently sized gas scooterwould never, ever buy one though
