The bike above is only $29 and can support a 300 pound rider. Would you ride one? Just hope it doesn't rain

Here's the awesome video: http://vimeo.com/37584656
as an avid mountain biker let me tell you that the bike is shit....you can not make a frame out of cardboard LOL...you have to understand how important frame rigidity is in a sport like cycling...its not about winning the "tour de france" its about understanding that a frame that flexes and soaks up all your energy is a complete shit ride...

its like making a bike out of glass...it can be done, but there is no good reason to do so....
