No flimsy derailleurs, gears, cranks, or chains to go wrong. No sore ass either.

Here's my Kickbike City G4

Thinking

"Nice upright position asks to be ridden without sports outfit. Kick with style to the nearby market. Your dress will thank the absence of saddle and greasy chains. As you glide along city streets you trim your legs and buttocks, improve your overall fitness, while spicing up your daily routine. You simply don’t notice the strain because kicking is so much fun! This model is also handy for employees at large warehouses, airports and such."

The pictures say it's not for blokes.

If ever a vehicle was asking for a velosolex-type over the wheel mounted engine, this is it.

I'd give it a go for round the town centre, but would prefer a slightly wider platform.

I'd kick it over. If I want to get fit I'll go up a gym and ogle the fit birds not mince about on some sort of bike wannabe. Razz
