I know what you’re thinking – NO WAY! But hypothetically, this idea is pretty cool. The Flying Bike concept uses a complex combination of advanced lightweight structural elements and high-precision propulsion and stabilization technology to give lift to the rider for brief periods of time; 5 minutes or so to be exact. You might not be able to weave in and out of traffic, but you might be able to fly over it!

I don’t even want to call it a “design” or “concept”, nice rendering though
Even if it flys, the user could only go short distances. They would get too tired pedaling.
Maybe for superman but he doesn’t need it.
The energy you need to fly is amazing and even with battery it’is so difficult.
Personnaly to pedal has nonsense
@Jack, I agree wholeheartedly, but I wouldn’t even go so far as to say they’re nice renders…
