Weird Bike Wednesday - Schiller S1 Water Bike

Schiller S1 Water Bike

Do you realize that if your bicycle can only operate on land, over 70% of the planet is off-limits to you? Judah Schiller has come up with a solution to this problem. With the Schiller S1 the rider sits upright just like you would on a standard bicycle. The front sprocket is attached by a gates belt to a smaller rear sprocket that drives a propeller. The propeller can be flipped up out of the water (as shown in the photo). Price for the S1 starts at $4.500 and you can add accessories such as a fishing pole holder. It comes in three different frame sizes. Here's a video that shows it in action.
