A bicycle that is not part of the industrial revolution, does not depend on industrial roads, and can be repaired with local organic materials. Much better than a 'normal' bicycle.

That might be a cute thing to show to tourists from Las Vegas,
but the keen observer might notice that the 'wheels' will not
withstand any type of weight, and, heaven forbid, the unwary

A shocking (oops...no shock absorbers) experience, to say the least.    ;D

Right.  SO that is better than my carbon fibre racing bike then?  ::)

Can you cycle 80 miles in less than 5 hours on that?   ???
