Jump Bike: Run and hop on to this green bicycle!

So if have some kind of a knee problem or you live on top of a hill and mostly need no pedaling on your way down each day, then this might be your ideal choice of a bike. This has no pedals and it involves something between running and cycling. Actually it is like one of those toys that we used to stand and push around when we were kids. Not that gets an extra wheel, a look of a bike and a seat to sit on. Nothing beyond that; but this still is an interesting way to commute around.

The ‘jump bike’ is a custom built bicycle which has no pedals and instead is powered by running. The rider simple sits on the seat and begins to run, pushing the bike forward in the process. Once they have reached the desired speed they jump onto the bike and sit. If you are not too fond of doing those kinds of acrobatics, then do not go for this. I still do not get the point in this completely as it seems to be not anymore green than a normal bike. In fact, now you have to carry your own weight and push the bike along.

In all logic ways, this looks more like a step backwards than forward. It is a funny little thought of the creator, but nothing you should be raving about. Unless you only need to go downhill daily and this costs a lot lesser than a bicycle, you would maybe buy this. If you ever need to go uphill, then just dump it in the nearest trash can and walk. That is way easier than this
