STOOPIDTALLVideo: Point of view from the tallest of tall bikes
There's tall bikes and there's tall bikes but this is the tallest we've seen. Check out the amazing POV footage from this hacked Huffy beach cruiser. At over fourteen feet to the saddle you need a real head for heights and some climbing skills just to get up there. And once it's rolling through the streets of LA there's no putting your feet down at the lights. Enjoy!

Stoopidtall...says it all really
I've mentally logged it that he had some outriders ready to steady the ship should his route be compromised. I've had to do that else I'd have nightmares.
Jeez. That took guts. I worry about falling 6 foot off a normal bike. Amazing.
OMG when he was filtering... scared me half to death.
Thank god there were no traffic lights!
I'd need a cutout saddle and cutout shorts because I'd be crapping myself the whole time.
awesome!
More like insane!
