Jet Powered Bicycle

Robert Maddox sells jet engines. He attached a 50 pound pulsejet engine to a bicycle, and now it can go 75 mph! It makes a LOT of noise, and might not be all that safe. Gizmodo has the video. Link

    WOah, You’ve got to be kidding me. That is the craziest thing I’ve ever seen. What does it cost? Because you might as well just get a motorcycle….

    that is a beautiful bicycle.

    Not sure about putting a pulse jet on it…or indeed anything, but it’s a lovely ride.

    i hope he’s upgraded the hubs and rims on that bike – its a bit of a suburban cruiser…

    kid_icarus – is your comment an ironic joke involving your name,? please tell me it is.

    USOTD indeed! I wonder what happens to a helmet hitting the curb at those speeds….

    Helmet…Optional

    Signing your last Will and Testament before riding it…Mandatory

    If you need to ask what the point is, you will never get the point.

    Too bad this has already been done. The black label bicycle club made a jet bike from scrap back in 96 i think. Look up bike kill jet bike on google video.
