Wow! Those look seriously cool.

They also look seriously sketchy, especially as various bits age. Sad

WOW, this Slingshot looks so out of this world. I had that reaction when I saw a friend's Cannondale Lefty. This Slingshot takes it to the next level. Not sure how many have seen a Lefty, so attaching a stock photo from the web. My friend loves her Lefty but that's not her only bike though. In other words, she's a small-level bike collector/a big time passionate rider as well.

I would love to see/hear from someone who's ridden a Slingshot. That would be something..:-)

Thanks, Jesper for pointing out their website. Sadly, their website seems a little neglected and doesn't have any videos of their "Slingshot" bike. I was hoping to see it in action. The only video shows their "conventional" bikes in action. I tried to check out various models and most have, "arriving soon".

Regardless, I would love to hear from an owner or anyone who got their hands on these machines. Truly perplexing design.

interesting design, was the road bike used as a time trial bike? it looks sort of effective for that since the string would produce less drag versus an actual tube. would love to hear from people who have tried this for that discipline
