Bicycle ride on prejudices: the most unusual bike tuning

In the spring, the cycling season begins, and many are looking for a two-wheeled friend, and someone managed to rethink the concept of this transport and turned cycling into a shocking tool. Indeed, why not attach real horns to the bike instead of a steering wheel or make caterpillars instead of tires? The owners of these bikes seem to live under the slogan "Let's not let passers-by get bored."

Found on the streets of Copenhagen, this bike will appeal to fans of both American bison and carpeting, which was popular in the 1970s. We hope this two-wheeled comrade is protected from the rain, otherwise he may eventually begin to smell like a living bison.

Who wants to ride a dinosaur without going to Jurassic Park? This marvelous Tyrannosaurus Rex was recently listed for sale on Craigslist. The rider can even force this old pile of bones to open its mouth and twist its head.

One of the disadvantages of a bicycle compared to a car is the lack of storage and transport space. This makes it difficult to go shopping by bike. One of the users of the site Instructables.com, dedicated to various instructions, suggested a bicycle design that allows you to carry everything you need in front of you. Of course, it is quite difficult to get hold of a shopping cart without breaking the law, and after a while it will still rumble or constantly swerve in one direction. However, if you're skilled enough to combine a bike and a cart, you can probably fix its wheels too.

If you can't get a cart for a trolley, or if you'd like something to carry heavier loads, you can try building a bike with a loading platform. There are a lot of them on the Internet, but this three-wheeled cargo bike with a wooden platform looks very stylish.

Many people like to cycle through dense forests and spend the night in tents. However, full-size travel trailers are only available to motorists. Trailer bike by artist Kevin Cyr finally gives two-wheelers the freedom to travel with a decent bed, kitchen and entertainment nook.

Riding a two-seater bike is probably romantic, but still difficult. Imagine what happens if you unscrew one wheel and make a two-seater unicycle out of a bicycle. Either you have to move very smoothly with the second passenger, or you will definitely crash into something.

If the two-seat option doesn't suit you, you might be surprised to know that a nine-person bike can be quite stable. It's just that it is made in the form of a circle and cannot fall. This masterpiece of two-wheel engineering is built by artist Robert Wexler from refurbished bicycles. It can be taken apart and taken anywhere.

Do you prefer running to cycling, but still like to spin your wheels sometimes? Then a bike with a treadmill is what you need! In the end, you can walk in the park for a long time without getting your sneakers dirty. You can buy a professionally assembled copy on the Internet or assemble one yourself, as in the photo. The large weight of such a bike will be an excellent reason to add a sports load.

This incredible bike is like a scooter: you must first accelerate in order to ride it. However, it is more realistic than a treadmill bike.

Don't know how to encourage gamer friends to go for a bike ride? Try attaching a joystick to the steering wheel so that you can use it to control the bike. It is clear that the buttons will be just for beauty, but this is a good way to get gamers out into the fresh air.

In the world of bicycles, there is no real analogue of a long limousine, but a bicycle called Schlooooong is the closest option. This grotesquely elongated bike on the road looks both fun and intimidating. Unfortunately, someone stole it from the owners, so if you see it, shout that this Schlooooong is stolen.

If you think tires are for wimps, don't cross yourself off the list of cyclists. How about a combination of bike and tank? The caterpillars are driven by pedals, and you need to steer with the help of special levers. We don't know the name of this miracle, but we know that it was presented at the Tour de Fat Bicycle Festival in Seattle in 2010.

Instead of tires, this bike has running shoes that simulate running without your feet even touching the ground. This crazy creation was also presented at the Tour de Fat festival, but in San Francisco in 2008.

There are a lot of recumbent bike designs out there now, but most of them look a little underwhelming. Appearing at the 2009 Tour de Fat festival in Denver, this tricycle seems to be inspired by tricycles that look cool and fun at the same time.

It is unlikely that you would like to ride a bike into the lake, but if you ride on a comfortable sofa, then why not on the water surface?
