    I don't think I have a need for one, based on what it's designed for
    (low-speed, short-distance city-centre runabout bike, cheap and unattractive to thieves, designed to last 6 months or so)

    But if I did, sounds a decent prospect !

    Okay, I wouldn't want one for actual commuting, but I'd love to give it a go.

    I like it , pretty impressive . I'm not sure you could actually make it for 15 quid though could you ?

    He says it was designed to go slow and to last 6 months if it sat in a shed for 6 months like most people in Britain's bikes do,so what was the point in him making it? Is he just desperate for attention and if its so good why is there no pictures of anyone riding it, to show whether it falls apart the second you get on it?
