saw this the other day and despite the price ($30,000) it's actually a brilliant invention! Imagine if this became mass produced and affordable to all, the positive impact on c02 emissions etc would be excellent. And it's pretty much fast and free to run transport for the masses.

well impressed :)

Looks quite impressive, and a great idea, saw a vid of this on youtube last week but was in german.
I cant imagine this becoming too popular though with such a price tag but would be great if the price was affordable.
Plus you wouldn't wanna leave it anywhere, so it wouldn't be too practical lol

What a good idea, like all new products they cost a fortune, think plasma tv's when they first arrived on the scene they costed thousands. Once it goes in to mass production prices will fall substantially.

fuck me that's a good idea! I want!:D only if it was cheaper than a motorbike though!

No doubt the government would find someway of taxing the shit out of this when motorists do switch over to brilliant modes of transport like this...
