The Fliz Bike is a concept bicycle designed without a pedal, chains or seat. The bicycle is designed to be rode using only the rider's feet. The arched frame has a five-point harness hanging off of it that works as a seat. Small pegs in the rear wheels act as foot rests.
It's really tough to nail down the idea behind the Fliz Bike. It's certainly not designed for speed. The Fliz Bike also looks to leave a few things to be desired in the safety department. All safety concerns aside, the Fliz Bike seems to provide a comfortable ride with virtually no effort involved, at least on flat ground anyways.
