dude do the brakes even work?
you spent $20,000 on it when you could have spent $500 on a K-trak that only adds about 5 pounds onto the weight of any bike..
oh lord, that ride is so funny^^
perfect for posing but i wouldn´t never even think of riding it, cuz it would be quite a shame

so, its not like your going to need a mega strong bar if your riding in the snow... its not like concrete hard.
I think the brakes work by pushing the cylinder connected to the skiis, down, and by that having the skiis slide on an edge. Am I right?
no, the wheels stick down slightly below the skis. so when you pull the brakes the wheels stop turning and dig into the snow slowing/stopping it. at least that what it looks like.

I'm saying "bull" as well! I pile lots of $$$ parts on my projects, and even my Karpiel has around $8500 with a custom paint job.
go make a custum sky bike with custom 4 piston cylinders, titanium hardware, custom hand made titanium brackets, etc... and then tell me how much it adds up to.
Metro 04, I bet your Karpiel doesnt have custom fab'd parts either. Props to you neukita! this is dope!
that can't possibly cost $20,000. the bike alone with all the parts probably cost maybe $4000. i'm highly doubting, 4 brackets, 4 ski mounts, and 2 seat stays of titanium cost $16,000. I don't see why you would waste your money on "custom 4 piston cylinders" when there are already a few on the market, or you could have easily used any brake from any type of motorcycle if you needed that much power. even if you built the hole bike out of titanium it wouldn't cost $20,000.

i think thats SWEET!!!. love the idea, and hate all the shit coming from the chavs and cocks on pinkbike!
guess it's worth the $20,000 and 400hrs if it does biking and skiing together (my two best sports) and i would recommend to try and show some different bike/ski companies that (especially NORCO). love it!
