Giving danger a whole new meaning, this Bryan Walsh Avtomat Hydro-Static Bicycle was inspired by the automatic AK-47 rifle.

Sleek in its design, this Bryan Walsh Avtomat Hydro-Static Bicycle incorporates the dynamics of the rifle into its construction. While looking stylish and smooth, the bike is also powered by [hydrostatic drive](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/otter-bike-explorer), ensuring more use can come out of this vehicle than the standard [chain bicycle](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rcyl-bike).

**Implications** - As society continues to move towards an environmentally conscious and eco-friendly world, the importance of bicycles and [alternative transportation devices](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bike-car-hybrid) increases. Corporations seeking to capitalize on this increasing market of cyclists can do so by creating specialty and luxury designs targeted at upper-class riders.
