Slipper Bike Rolls on … Slippers!

Designer Sergii Gordieiev made special wheels with slippers at the ends of the spokes to create the world’s first slipper bike.

Some slippers are so comfy that you wish you could wear them all the time, be it to work, a wedding—or on your bike. Sergii Gordieiev took that idea literally (not metaphorically) and made a bike that rolls on—you guessed it—slippers!

In his YouTube video, Gordieiev adapts wheel hubs with the addition of steel rods and plates to sandwich the slippers (which feature the face of Jake the Dog from the cartoon Adventure Time). After welding everything together, he mounts the slipper wheels on his mountain bike and takes off.

This isn’t really a practical form of transportation, but it certainly has style.

Aside from the creativity and obvious fabrication skill that Gordieiev exhibits, we love how whimsical this idea is. What we love even more is how it sounds, which is a bit like how a cartoon might depict cheeks flapping in the wind.

No word yet on whether it is as comfortable as walking in the slippers.
