How Would You Like a $20 Bike...

It could be pretty good actually. One big problem with cheap bikes (sub $100) is that they're usually made from steel alloy, which rusts really badly if you leave it out there for any length of time. This solves that problem whilst reduces the price by a ridiculous account. It doesn't look like it'd go off-road and I'm skeptical about shock-absorption but $20, wow.

Any news about international availability? If this is available now I'd probably buy it right this instant.

I'll take two! I have a really nice bike already, but I know some people who I could give them to!

But what if it rains? I'm still not clear on that.

Organic sealant makes it fire and water retardant. They apparently put a cross section of the material in a water tank for a month and it hadn't degraded so rain shouldn't be a problem.

Okay but what if it REALLY rains. Like, so much. Torrentially. How 'bout then? ;D
