Wonderful World of Scooters
We have seen a lot of wild and crazy bikes come out and this may be the zaniest yet. We have seen electric bike based on adding motors, some working on kinetic energy and just yesterday, a rental bike concept the helps hybrid buses. Now we have an out of this world concept, a bike called Fire Trick Bob, which may be dangerous if you are not the risk-taker biker known today.
It is a bike that runs with a turbine engine and spins at a rate of 120,000 RPM and produces the equivalent of 4.4 horsepower. The 1 liter fuel tank is good for about 7 minutes of continual thrust which should be a problem since you may eventually find yourself going back to pedal power.
The price for this crazy bike? 1,000,000 Yen. Now who in the world would want to buy something dangerous and expensive like this!

Hi, interesting topic - I have just bought an electric bike that I use to get to work everyday. I Just plug in at work to recharge it and then cycle home.
Absolutely love the bike, it was cheap and simple to use. I got it from http://www.elecbikeco.com they seemed good but I am sure there are many other companies out there too.
Good luck
Ahmet
