Sod New York. You can get one built in old York:

My mate Dylan, (
@spandex on here, but not sure he's around here any more) builds them. I haven't ridden one, but NT has, says it's a super smooth ride, just swallows bumps - you just have to think ahead on turns, because the wheels are giant gyroscopes and it tends to want to stay upright.
They are certainly eye catching, and very cool!
