Tired of that same old, straight-ahead bicycle that just gets you from point A to point B with predictable reliability, you say?

Well XnTrick Cycles’ Wobble Bike may be just what you’re looking for. The bikes feature a pivot point, located about 7 inches in front of the seat tube. In other words, in addition to the bike using handlebars to turn at the steer tube, as most bikes do, the Wobble Bike bends, flexes, and wobbles right in the middle.

Here’s a video of Wobble Bikes in action:


The British group XnTrick has also developed some other perfectly impractical (but very cool) designs including the Velocino and Ebik (backwards bike!), pictured below.


From XnTrick Cycles:

This website shows projects that we have worked on. We do not sell any of these products. We are here for your interest and to inspire creativity

We appear at cycling events and perform impromptu silliness, encouraging audience participation:- i.e. If you see us pratting about ask for a go! If you need to know why - you've missed the point.

Should You Get a Carectomy?

Cars are the most inconvenient convenience we have. We're required to have them, but increasingly, we dislike them. At Carectomy, we're trying to figure out how to extract cars from people.

The operation is a little bit painful, but life afterward is much more awesome. If you're interested in carectomies, sign up to our newsletter, or subscribe our RSS feed below.
