Inspired by the armadillo, designer Marc Graells Ballve made this retractable armored shell for his scooter to protect it from theft. Do you think that it will work?

Only if it weighs 300#, because anyone can pick the scooter up and toss it in the back of a truck.

Hope it catches on - I need a new hobby and flipping dorky looking scooters on their back could be just the ticket.

Quick! To the Bat scooter! (Has to be painted black first)

But it would be really cool if you could drive the scooter while the shell is up.

um... considering how many of those things get on YouTube after getting hit by other vehicles... wouldn't it be better if... you know... if you could /drive/ with the cover closed???? Just maybe????
