Mountain (Gorilla) Bike

Now for some reason one of the Blogs that I peruse on a regular basis (Wired Gadget Lab) seems to have something of an occasional pre-occupation with bikes. So when I scrolled through the recent posts this morning I wasn’t surprised to see a post about a bicycle, until of course I saw the image below. (courtesy of Photography Bay)

The more eagle eyed amongst you may notice, just as I did that rather than a rigid frame made from the usual bicycle friendly materials, this one is made in the same manner as the feet of one of our great Gorilla Pods, and indeed upon reading the article, it became apparent that this was part of a recent Joby (being the good folks who make the Gorilla Pod) display.

Although Gorilla Pods are certainly sturdy enough to support and fix any attached camera in place I would not imagine that this was intended in any way to be an actual functional bicycle, at least not without a lot of extra padding and somewhere soft to land one would assume! This is certainly one of the more interesting display items I have seen, and would certainly have me giving their stand more than a second glance, and I guess at the end of the day that is the whole point really!
