New type of bike(ish)?

Have a look at this. Now to sure if it will be useful for the commute. Might useful as an alternative to a folding bike?

Is that a real thing or a Daily Mash-esque mickey-take?

I think the ''magic'' bit about the ''magic one wheel'' must be that when I look at it its actually seems to have 2 wheels.

Put a seat on it, and pedals directly onto the front wheel, and I think you will have just reinvented the penny-farthing....
