Tony Harrison Posted October 25, 2006 Report Share Posted October 25, 2006 I think he's just a 'man down the pub' that invents stuff.For one thing, how can a hole flex? That alone doesn't make sense. Secondly, why would the front of the bike significantly deform when 'on the back wheel' - there isn't much force on the front at that point - the handlebar is just being used to help maintain balance.Go and give him a slap and tell him not to be so bloody stupid...
