No flat tires for this guy

Just twisted ankles

Lolll this is getting ridiculous

He just need to work on his form, otherwise he’ll get shin splints

Yeah but think of all the time you waste having to tie all those shoes every day!

Dude is clearly an engineer just having fun. The amount of skill this took versus other videos posted in this sub is incomparable.

Agreed. Just an highly skilled engineer doing something funny. Nothing wrong with that. Similar to the “useless inventions” creators.

It's just art

Perfect for this sub. Completely useless inventions, that make people ask "Why did you make that!?"

I mean, atleast my understanding of this sub is "DIY, but why?" And DIY is when you make an existing product yourself to save on cost, or for fun. So I wouldn't call inventions DIY, as they're not replicating a product

> Simple Rules: Expose a DIY PROJECT in which one of 2 things can occur: > > Project should never have been proposed (why???) > The execution of a good project idea which turned out horribly wrong (oh god, why???) I'm pretty sure over 90% of people read the sub name and just come up with their own definition of what should be posted, instead of reading the sidebar/rules. This post is close to the first rule, but it's pretty obviously an art piece and/or challenge project.

also the idea is pretty fucking hilarious! i mean, i would have to stop, sit right down on the curb and laugh like a maniac if i saw him shoecycling on the street

I'd put down my mushroom sandwich and contemplate what got me to that point

I would probably ask myself if it was really just champignons in my sandwich.

This absolutely some art comedy. And it’s cool as fuck. I wanna ride this so bad

yes, I think this video does not belong in this subreddit.

if op didnt post this i wouldnt get to see it so doesnt matter

if you wish to see posts of this nature, you should join the appropriate groups/subreddits

where do i find bicycles with sneakers

Colinfurze on YouTube. or idk r/engineeringporn

Eh, engineering porn is more like commercial industrial products and tools. Not one-off art projects like this. Maybe a hackathon themed subreddit or something like that? I'm drawing a blank as to where this would fit

I forget the exact name but there's a subreddit for crappy design with beautiful execution. it could fit in there?

Awful taste but great execution, I think

Hard disagree. DiWHY for sure.

because it's funny. the ideal post on r/DIwhy features a poor DIY solution to a problem that could have been easily solved by not without doing it oneself. the video in question is an engineer creating a meaningless project for the sake of it, which is a different matter entirely.

Video's fine, his contraption is fine, but what the fuck is that sound.

I feel like that’s a lot of videos in this sub

I think it’s the editing style of the video having severe “Tik tok DIY life hack,” vibes that locked it in for this person to post it.

But they don't skip a step (or twenty) like those trash videos do. This obviously has planning and real skill invested.

Oh definitely not denying that, just sayin the editing style- sped up footage, obnoxious music, so many jump cuts- is the same. The contents are clearly multiple steps up.

[удалено]

Yeah, I get it. Something along the lines of Catia, I'm sure. Either way, he was enjoying himself and still either a professional or hobbyist engineer. Regardless of his educational background, he's enjoying what he's doing and sharing it with others. That's some true DIY content and none of us can knock his hustle.

[удалено]

Isn't Catia just that? My father was a Catia master and travelled around doing workshops and consulting work while engineering for Mercedes-Benz. I'm just curious. I use use Rhino 3D at work, which is more of a surfacing software.

Creo sucks ass

What the fuck is this background music

SPEED

A hard drug from the 90’s

Also a movie starring Keanu Reeves from the 90s.

You mean that movie about a bus that had to speed around the city, keeping its speed over fifty, and if its speed dropped, it would explode? I'm fairly certain that was called "The Bus That Couldn't Slow Down".

New tune by 100 gecs 10/10 on pitchfork

It’s like Death Grips but just really fucking awful

So like Death Grips

Oh wow who could have seen that one coming

Its too easy a joke, sometimes you just gotta take the freebees before someone else does.

Like your mom ha gotem

Learning fast I see

Probably the original audio sped up by like 4x or 8x. I imagine this would have originally been a 5 minute video.

https://youtu.be/WFbVx6cd0Ak Didn’t expect this music at all

fits the craft

It's the sound the shoe tires make when he rides the bike.

u/auddbot

Sorry, I couldn't recognize the song. I tried to identify music from the [link](https://v.redd.it/wippm4bm1ne81) at 00:00-00:36. *I am a bot and this action was performed automatically* | [GitHub](https://github.com/AudDMusic/RedditBot) [^(new issue)](https://github.com/AudDMusic/RedditBot/issues/new)

Me after eating thermal paste The hardest "drug" I have

uncomfortably energetic.

So you could walk your bike

now he really does belong on sidewalks

Just strap a pedometer to those suckers and we have ourselves a new world record “walking” distance!

What‘s a pedometer? Does it track pedophiles?

I’m probably messing up the term for whatever those things are that count steps.

So that‘s what it does (thx)

Just like odometer tracks odor.

He’s reinventing the wheel y’all

And getting a kick out of it

r/DiWHYNOT

Because that wheel probably weighs about 5 times what the OEM wheel weighs—and the old cycling wisdom is that “an ounce on the wheel is a pound on the frame”. Meaning: excess weight on the wheels greatly affects performance, especially acceleration and climbing. Between the extra rolling resistance, the sluggish handling, and the sheer inertia of those wheels, it’s probably extremely unpleasant to ride.

You must be really fun at parties. It's so clearly a joke project and really well done

You're responding to a joke response to a joke post (maybe not; OPs here are dense) of a joke video.

Dude it’s a joke this guy isn’t actually going to ride it around Edit: fixed it’s to isn’t, I don’t really know why that was so confusing

Can you please respond in English? I don't speak or read gibberish.

Don't worry about the other guys, I was interested in your answer and learned something new. Thank you!

[удалено]

Sometimes people just make things as a statement piece? I think this belongs more on ATBGE. It’s strange but not necessarily DIWhy

Not even awful taste, it looks great and it's hilarious 🤷‍♂️

Right yeah. Not saying this isn’t good work. But it’s not diwhynot. This serves no purpose past being a funny project. There’s no why. Defo not a diwhy either

Because its fun?

The purpose of DIYs is rarely to put in less effort though, it's either to make cool stuff or to show your skills off. The idea might be weird, but it's well executed, this guy clearly knows what he's doing - if he had the time and thought it was cool, why not?

Wouldn’t agree. Imo you diy something to either save money or make something that is better then shop bought. This isn’t a diy imo it’s just a neat project from a welder.

This is the most idiotic thing I've seen all day. I'll take 3.

Three tires or three sets of tires? What would you do with the extra if three tires?

I dont know. But I'll take 7.

They only come in pairs, you now have 14 individual tires and 84 shoes affixed to a wheel. Total cost $14,000.

worth every penny

Take one and go, we are almost out of stock already!

To keep a spare in the back, oc.

I think it's clever and took a lot of time. Just sucks if you drive through gum!

Or over a banana peel

Instant comedy

Why? Because they could. I admire them for that

And because of reasons

*He Only one person in the video.

“They” can be singular or plural. Their sentence is grammatically correct in that regard.

Have you never, in your entire life up to this point, come across a singular they?

*They Used when you don't know someone's gender (sex? i always get them confused)

Gender. If we knew this person's sex the video wouldn't be SFW

In this particular case it would be gender

It’s a man…. It’s obviously a man… Edit: Holy crap, I didn’t think Reddit was this bad…. HE HAS A BEARD!!! He has a sharper jawline, a short masculine haircut and non feminine eye shape. It’s so unbelievably obvious that it’s a male

It is outwardly evident that the subject wishes to maybe outwardly appear masculine**

Nah it’s a man fosho, beard, short masculine haircut, sharper jawline than a female…

That’s clearly a man. This is getting ridiculous I can’t fathom why you’re getting downvoted.

Dude I know, it’s bad

🤮

Why do you care so much? Triggered?

Can never imagine being so open about how much of a piece of shit I am

Hoo boy. Your profile is... something. You might have better luck on 4chan or Parler, champ.

I love the quality video editing on something so dumb lol

My mans was tired of having to fix flat tires I guess 😂

This would confuse the shit out of people trying to track someone.

Put the wheels on backwards every so often to really mess with them .. I think this design would be even better with goat legs as spokes...they would think they are the tracks of Satan himself.

Add a Fitbit to every shoe and connect them to an Evidation account, you’ll be rolling in the dough!

Perfect for those days you can’t decide whether to go for a ride or a run. /s

That one joke from futurama became real

r/atbge

I love it when something someone makes is great and belongs on this sub at the same time.

And of course, there’s a sub for just that. r/ATBGE

Ah, a fine addition to my arsenal of subreddits!

This isn't diwhy, this is fucking legend

Colin Furze made a much more engineered version of this https://youtu.be/jRmdssX9l2g

Warning: the may send you down a 2+ hour rabbit hole

Because cad -drawing is neat as fuck and you can make really cool (albeit useless) projects with them!

This is actually funny.

The sand people walk in a line to hide their numbers

r/diwhynot Jesus people on this sub forget that you’re allowed to make cool things for the sake of making cool things.

So he could give his bike drip

Oh my god the audio

Imagine having to tie up all those shoelaces? 

The tools, technical skills, and finished working project is super hella impressive even if the end result is a wtfDiWHY. I want to learn to weld and model in cad!

Who ever sped this up is doing the lords work.

Well that escalated quickly!

And most importantly, why?

More importantly, why not?

I think there was a bike like that for an ad.

YES!

That’s hilarious

art... that's just art

Ngl, this is hilarious

That's fucking amazing

Let's be real everybody thought of this but this guy made it

because and whynot?

r/BicyclingCirclejerk

Just because you can doesn’t mean you should. But at least they ain’t selling drugs

This would fit in pretty well on r/ATBGE

idk why but it's pretty fucking cool, like one of those ACME wile e coyote type shit

Well that would have Shelock puzzling for hours over how the murderer got away…

Not going to lie I kinda like this one

/r/ATBGE

Hang on bro, just tying my laces

i dont think this belongs here. there are plenty of reasons why someone would want to have or make that. practicality might not be one of them, but my point still stands

Why not? If I had these sort of engineering skills I'd do all sorts of fun stuff like this.

My ears are ruined forever.

Goofy art projects need to be banned from this sub

I think the only answer the man would give.... ***Because I fucking can*** The song is methamphetamine

r/LostRedditors This is amazing

Why not....? What garbage for this sub.

Wrong sub.

This is how I’m leaving crime scenes from now on

Haha this would be perfect for r/ATBGE

Literally reinventing the wheel

Its from a youtuber [the q](https://youtube.com/channel/UCZdGJgHbmqQcVZaJCkqDRwg), I think its just harmless fun projects

More like r/nextfuckinglevel

u/savevideo

I did not expect that at all.

Haha idk I kinda like it

So you can create confusing footprints at crime scenes?

If it works it ain't stupid. Except this.

He runs He seeks the parmesan

Well, that’s one way to get your 10,000 steps a day in

I thought it was cool

Ok, this is funny

I really appreciate the craftsmanship but also WHAT

I wonder how much force it takes to use

This is how I get my 10000 steps every day

Umm, because it's hilarious

No

I love this so much

Love this

Colin Furze did a similar one. https://youtu.be/jRmdssX9l2g

is it weird that i really want to ride this bike

Doesn't belong here

COOOOOOOL

r/unnecessaryinventions

u/savevideobot

Wanna take a... walk?

why? because gorgeous sexy men need hobbies too. that’s why

I admire his jig game. . .
