Very clever, but...

Hugely complicated and heavy and takes up loads of road space. So why not just build a bicycle?

The "safety bicycle" hasn't changed in any really significant way in over a hundred years, for good reason: it was almost perfect from day one.

Will this be ubiquitous a century hence in the was the bicycle is today?
