This video is totally fake.. very funny, but fake...

I had a go-ped that was pretty souped up, and it was capable of reaching about 45mph, and that was as fast as most would go.. the fastest I've EVER heard of a Go-Ped going is 60mph.. and at that rate of speed it is very dangerous, I will tell you the main reason.

The tires on a go-ped are pneumatic rubber, driven by a spindel that applies friction to the tire. When the speed of the ped reaches a certain point the tire will expand and come off of the rim. thus causing a gnarly accident.

Hope that clarifies a few things.. carry on.. hehe
