Probably a repost but I was quite shocked to hear that a friend of mine backed this project. Quite stunning to see that people pledge over 10 million $ for a POS project like that. The indiegogo page is pure cringe gold...

Yeah pretty sure we've seen that before. I could never ride something called The Babymaker. What were they thinking with that?

Sig_Arlecchino in reply to @Jonny69

The german term "Fremdscham" seems apt in this context.

Crowdsourcing successes have apparently nothing to do with the bike itself (SpeedX, Mate, Babymaker...).
This article is pretty good if you're interested on the subject.

https://cyclingtips.com/2020/07/meet-the-superstrata-a-3d-printed-carbon-bike-thats-blowing-up-on-indiegogo/ The superstrata is another interesting one. Looks like it's still getting updates so it might actually be a real bike, but when it launched I was convinced it was a scam. Still a weird bike and campaign though.

Entertaining read, cheers!
@boredom I've seen that one before but (luckily) had already forgotten about it.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

> Quote text by starting lines with >

Mention another user by @username

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

```
Your code goes here
```
Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.

If you upload more than 5 files we will display all attachments as thumbnails.
