How could it make money?

Didn't even know these existed.

prolly make that in one weekend at a decent bikeweek, I would guess.

I looked heavy into them several years ago. His products are LEGIT. I just looked again and the $19k one used to come with a bike. Doesn't look like it now. This company also comes with a contract. The cheaper ones back then said you weren't allowed to use them to make a profit. You had to buy a higher priced one to be able to use it for profit.

Again, this was a few years ago. Not sure how it is now. I started a new business so I'm not to up to date with everything going on in the stunt scene now. Haha

Check out iwheelie.com. Guy named Vincent Price has been in the business for a long time now. He's on the East Coast.

The videos of those things on youtube make me sad... some poor bike, chained down while posers hop on and off thinking they are so boss while they rape the throttle for tiny pow pows.

Because they charge people $20 to ride it for 2 min and at bike events and shows, people who can't wheelie just think they are plain cool. Saw one at starboys stuntfest in 07 and that thing was going all day!
