The site is for real, and they have some interesting projects there of varying practicality. This however makes no sense. Why not just walk?

?!?! if you want to go running.. why dont you just go running?

and if you want to go cycling.. why dont you just go cycling?


that thing makes no sense... i see it being a big seller.

That has to be a joke. Click on the bullet point that says "Take it off some sweet jumps" and tell me you think they aren't yanking your chain. I'm still chuckling.

I agree with Markz. The Treadmill Bike is a joke, albeit a funny one. There's some pretty amazing stuff on that site though. The Couchbike is a very impressive piece of engineering and their BikeCAD program is really amazing.

The dumbest thing I've ever seen!

I think these projects are for real. The dumb thing is the people who ride them.

From the video it looked like you could walk faster than run on the treadmill bike.
