Didn't look none to safe to me. the sim ended before rider slid down front of car to be crushed under it.
safest bike I know is in my spare bedroom fixed up as a turbo (though I've crashed that a few times getting off)

In case it's not obvious, the designer is Clive Sinclair's son.

I can't see how being designed to prevent/reduce minor injuries at the expense of becoming more vulnerable to very serious ones makes it any safer. I hate stuff like this - all it takes is one smart arse politico - inevitably a non cyclist - to see it and think it's a good idea and we end up on the butt end of some stupid legislation.

Oh great they've re-invented the BMW C1, but swapped the engine for pedals and a leccy motor.

I'm sure will do for cycling what BMW did for scooter travel.
