Shuttle Buddy!
« on: April 22, 2010, 12:37:24 PM »
Have a wee gander at this little wonder:
http://shuttlebuddy.com/

Personal Shuttle device - wonder how much power it has. I know just where I'd use it.
They recomend using them with semi slicks. Guess they wear on the tyre a bit, so Dougs Ardent will be perfect ;)

Should add there's a vid of it on Pinkbike, search for shuttle buddy, see how you go.
The first comment is gold, something like" whoa, why is your hub so loud?"

Top speed 30-35miles an hour, it must have a bit of kick in it. Of course, that could be the speed you hit going down the hill with that in your backpack.

At just over USD$1000 you'd want to be using it a lot.

They should make derailleur hangers in the shape of a bottle opener, everyone would carry a spare.
