The Uno Motorbike–Preposterous But Cool

You know, I see all kinds of strange car stuff in my time here.  I’ve seen preposterous car gadgets and insane cars and everything in between, but I think that the Uno Motorbike may well qualify as one of the WEIRDEST devices I’ve seen for a while.

Basically, the Uno Motorbike is a kind of strange hybrid between a motorcycle and a unicycle.  Call it a unimotorcycle, or just a really strange idea.

The Uno Motorbike has a tiny chassis, with rear-mounted foot pegs, and the controls are linked to a handlebar on the front.  The speed of the device isn’t controlled by a throttle, but rather by leaning.  Lean forward to go faster, and lean backward to go slower.

The Uno Motorbike is definitely one killer cool device, even if I probably wouldn’t ride one on a bet.  But we won’t be able to ride them any time soon, as only one Uno Motorbike (double bonus irony points!) exists on the face of the earth.
