Title: Cool Little RC Bikes
Post by: Bogan on May 01, 2009, 03:58:29 AM

was watching a thing on youtube or vimeo yesterday, cant seem to find it again :-[ , but ill post about it anyway, somebody else might know the link.

It was a bunch of mini RC bikes hooning round a wee track, musta been doing bout 60, at full lean, looked pretty impressive, (will try and find vid again later) and they have little electric motors in them, with lithium batteries. So with enough dosh, should be able to make bike perform just as good on the road, just scale em up a bit!

found the video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jM27fujbiXs&feature=related (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jM27fujbiXs&feature=related) though it looks like they may be nitro bikes, but they have electric ones as well
