Hi all, I'm James

I've invented a no-spill cup holder, much needed for taking to-go coffees and drinks on my Ninja around the city.

https://www.blueshiftmounts.com/

Was hoping to get your thoughts and support if you find it useful.
This is my full-time gig, preparing to ship soon.

Hopes & dreams - thanks for the help!
Cheers,


In here? All you are going to get is an arseraping

Come.up with a way to clean my visor and you'll get my attention.

Not sure how a cup holder is useful on an motorbike.....

How does the Cup Holder® perform in the rain?

Does it come supplied with a bluetooth steering control that allows the Cup Holder® to be controlled via a wireless steering control with your thumb, even whilst wearing gloves?

How quickly can it be fitted and detatched?

Is there noticeable wind drag?

Have you considered attaching the Cup Holder® with tape so strong that even trucks are being made from it?

Have tests been done to find out if interior fogging is a problem when using the Cup Holder®?

Are you on LinkedIn?

Do you have a UK distributor yet? Thinking

How exciting. Oh wait......

What about this mug?

Non spill, insulated, and cheap as chips, (French fries to you).

So, it doesn't keep the cup upright or anything? It's literally just a non-spill lid (and a ring mount)?

Found the ad on youtube. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IesSF4JgBoI

First shot of a bike is someone riding in trainers...

I'd rather have a Contigo mug - absolutely water tight (not just spill proof) - can be chucked in top box or whatever and used when you reach destination.

https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07TRV5RM4/ref=twister_B089LBGJ7N

Slightly pricey, but excellent - no lids to unscrew or remove in order to use, just press the button, drink, release button and it's sealed again.

Literally the best thing I've ever seen. So you keep it under your seat, and when you buy a coffee, you fiddle to remove your seat, set it up on your bars and ride off with your coffee in its Costa paper cup now being wind blasted cool, eventually stop and drink it and then take the whole 'invention' off, take your rear seat off and put it all away again?


Or you could just drink your coffee and then get back on the motorcycle.

It's weird how people can create a problem that needs solving.

I just use a stainless-steel flask for hot or cold things, oe a plastic bottle for ordinary stuff like squash. Flasks are only about a tenner for a litre one, or even less. I think my Lidl one was a fiver, and it's excellent. You can get smaller ones, and "food flasks" too. Lash 'em on all over.

But apart from the uselessness of The Thing, you joined just to flog it? Why aren't you already a bike-loving and supportive BCF member? Where are your contributions to the common weal? Where were you in the BCF earthquake of '05? During the '17 chat-room tsunami? Fucking tourists, coming here to rape and plunder, fuck off.

If it had a mini nuclear reactor fitted that kept the coffee warm that would be nice.

Or maybe a cheap version the had an Ammonium Nitrate pellet dispenser to blow the temperature back up. Thumbs Up

It's good this inventing lark. Dance!

Actually I'm going to temper my comment slightly by saying it's not as utterly pointless as something I found whilst searching for an accessory for my R Nine T. This one's a peach:

But yeah, that 'invention' is going some towards it, for sure.

Bit late for the show. Ram have been making a gimbal cup holder for a decade or so that's considerably better than your offering.
Yours doesn't have a gimbal so isn't self levelling, holds the cup too high so is more likely to have spillages, because of this it requires you to fit a silly condom type thing to your cup but finally and this is the real killer, yours costs more.

Video footage of the cup holder in use can be seen if you scroll to the bottom of the list of files on the google drive page to the file called "Video Riding Iace Tea.mp4": https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1sMK1ZgaGaifEXvSgOIMEjwUtKW9Xgsqh

A perfect example of what's mentioned in this. Utter shite made by parasites.

" There’s nothing they need, nothing they don’t own already, nothing they even want. So you buy them a solar-powered waving queen; a belly button brush; a silver-plated ice cream tub holder; a “hilarious” inflatable zimmer frame; a confection of plastic and electronics called Terry the Swearing Turtle; or – and somehow I find this significant – a Scratch Off World wall map.

They seem amusing on the first day of Christmas, daft on the second, embarrassing on the third. By the twelfth they’re in landfill. For thirty seconds of dubious entertainment, or a hedonic stimulus that lasts no longer than a nicotine hit, we commission the use of materials whose impacts will ramify for generations.

Researching her film The Story of Stuff, Annie Leonard discovered that of the materials flowing through the consumer economy, only 1% remain in use six months after sale(1). Even the goods we might have expected to hold onto are soon condemned to destruction through either planned obsolescence (breaking quickly) or perceived obsolesence (becoming unfashionable).

But many of the products we buy, especially for Christmas, cannot become obsolescent. The term implies a loss of utility, but they had no utility in the first place. An electronic drum-machine t-shirt; a Darth Vader talking piggy bank; an ear-shaped i-phone case; an individual beer can chiller; an electronic wine breather; a sonic screwdriver remote control; bacon toothpaste; a dancing dog: no one is expected to use them, or even look at them, after Christmas Day. They are designed to elicit thanks, perhaps a snigger or two, and then be thrown away.

The fatuity of the products is matched by the profundity of the impacts. Rare materials, complex electronics, the energy needed for manufacture and transport are extracted and refined and combined into compounds of utter pointlessness. When you take account of the fossil fuels whose use we commission in other countries, manufacturing and consumption are responsible for more than half of our carbon dioxide production(2). We are screwing the planet to make solar-powered bath thermometers and desktop crazy golfers.

People in eastern Congo are massacred to facilitate smart phone upgrades of ever diminishing marginal utility(3). Forests are felled to make “personalised heart-shaped wooden cheese board sets”. Rivers are poisoned to manufacture talking fish. This is pathological consumption: a world-consuming epidemic of collective madness, rendered so normal by advertising and the media that we scarcely notice what has happened to us.

In 2007, the journalist Adam Welz records, 13 rhinos were killed by poachers in South Africa. This year, so far, 585 have been shot(4). No one is entirely sure why. But one answer is that very rich people in Vietnam are now sprinkling ground rhino horn on their food or snorting it like cocaine to display their wealth. It’s grotesque, but it scarcely differs from what almost everyone in industrialised nations is doing: trashing the living world through pointless consumption.

This boom has not happened by accident. Our lives have been corralled and shaped in order to encourage it. World trade rules force countries to participate in the festival of junk. Governments cut taxes, deregulate business, manipulate interest rates to stimulate spending. But seldom do the engineers of these policies stop and ask “spending on what?”. When every conceivable want and need has been met (among those who have disposable money), growth depends on selling the utterly useless. The solemnity of the state, its might and majesty, are harnessed to the task of delivering Terry the Swearing Turtle to our doors.

Grown men and women devote their lives to manufacturing and marketing this rubbish, and dissing the idea of living without it. “I always knit my gifts”, says a woman in a television ad for an electronics outlet. “Well you shouldn’t,” replies the narrator(5). An advertisement for Google’s latest tablet shows a father and son camping in the woods. Their enjoyment depends on the Nexus 7’s special features(6). The best things in life are free, but we’ve found a way of selling them to you.

The growth of inequality that has accompanied the consumer boom ensures that the rising economic tide no longer lifts all boats. In the US in 2010 a remarkable 93% of the growth in incomes accrued to the top 1% of the population(7). The old excuse, that we must trash the planet to help the poor, simply does not wash. For a few decades of extra enrichment for those who already possess more money than they know how to spend, the prospects of everyone else who will live on this earth are diminished.

So effectively have governments, the media and advertisers associated consumption with prosperity and happiness that to say these things is to expose yourself to opprobrium and ridicule. Witness last week’s Moral Maze programme, in which most of the panel lined up to decry the idea of consuming less, and to associate it, somehow, with authoritarianism(8). When the world goes mad, those who resist are denounced as lunatics.

Bake them a cake, write them a poem, give them a kiss, tell them a joke, but for god’s sake stop trashing the planet to tell someone you care. All it shows is that you don’t."

This worthless cunt most likely knew full well there was a better product at a cheaper price but didn't care, he's just playing the number's game with one sole intention, to free-load off the morons, retards and cretins and fuck the impact it has on the bigger picture.

Turds like this need flushing.

Lol, "Build the future". If that's the future I'd sooner come back as a fucking whelk, you sad sack of blather-drivelling shite.

Hello, James, let me inform you that it is against the law in many European countries, if not all of them, to drink, eat and smoke while you are on a motorcycle. Which means, there is no point in having a cup right next to your face while you ride.
