When suburban sprawl means that the only way you can commute by bike is by drafting behind semis on the interstate
OMG the yoke is almost the entire chainstay lmao
ya I run 700c wheels with a 108-tooth 650b chainring
No flywheel... them pedals going to whip and na na your shin like a mother...
I don’t understand how bicycles work what would that do
Disclaimer: I only sort of understand the mechanics of bikes
I think this would be the equivalent of using a bike on a very high gear. Look at the two gears (the one attached to the pedals and the one attached to the rear wheel) and the chain, and think about what would happen if you rotated the pedals one full rotation. The wheel would rotate far more than once.
So I think the joke is that the rider has superhuman strength and they want to bike very fast
Ah yes okay thank you, I knew bigger gear meant harder or easier to pedal but I wasn’t sure which
i'd love to try this, but i suspect the hardest part would be even getting it to move in the first place lol
