Thanks, I hate it!

@jbaggs @ai6yr And a screwdriver!

Those are in part why I hope it’s an art piece xD

@ai6yr @moira Lol, look how the belt goes in and out of the rear wheel. If it does work, it certainly does not work well.

However, if it is a working bike that someone uses, I applaud their ingenuity. This sort of contraption is born of necessity and limited resources, and if is great if it gives someone greater mobility.

@nickzoic @moira This is really just a machine for removing your rear tire quickly without having to fiddle with tire levers.

@moira AI slop given form, circa 2026.

@moira Sweet Jesus, @MLE_online hate-welded a bike and dropped it off in W. WA.

@moira

At least there are no safety concerns...

[moira@mastodon.murkworks.net]

@thefathippy Not after it kills the rider, anyway xD

[mle_online@social.afront.org]

@moira yes!! fuck yes!!!

[moira@mastodon.murkworks.net]

@nickzoic @jbaggs Yes, exactly, there is an extra rim on the back wheel for the belt.

@jbaggs @nickzoic @moira And/or a machine for removing your pants quickly without having to fiddle with…anything!

@moira @nickzoic The picture made it look like it went under the tire. So the spokes go into the "normal rim" and there is a secondary on the outside (welded, brazed, or whatever) for the belt?
