Guy replaces bike wheels with saw blades so he can ride across the ice

What could possibly go wrong with this?

Um… OK. Just don’t pedal in a circle too many times.

Also, don’t slide off the seat backwards.

This … just seems like a bad idea no matter how you look at it.

Or you know you can get bike tires with studs on them so you don’t have to go through the effort of welding or having a very dangerous ride.

If you watch the video, he had to weld lateral tabs on every tooth to keep the blades from cutting into the ice. So he literally just reinvented really terrible studded tires. :roll_eyes:

Great editing, though.

Papercuts happen every day. As for a circumcision, gulp I don’t even like to consider either instrument being used for that.

Texas remake.

It looks like it would be incredibly heavy to pedal. But hey, have fun, I guess.

That’s what YT is for.

Now, what’s next? Oh, I know. Someone will put a saw blade on this device’s “arm”.

I remember, without ever having watched that.

This will get interesting when BD is entering that arena…

It seems like I just posted this the other day.

They do require modifying how you lean a bike into turns when on dry pavement, but they are outstanding on glare ice.

Yeah, but actually useful things don’t get views on the intertubes.

“Why not both” Gif anyone?
