Indian Motorcycle, one of the world’s oldest motorcycle companies, has heard the complaints about motorcycles taking up too much space on the road. Their answer? The Indian Scout Bobber. To the untrained eye, this two-wheeled vehicle looks just like any other bike ridden by hooligans. But upon closer inspection, you’ll see all of its features have been stripped down in  a design that’s squashed together to bring riders closer to the asphalt. It’s a beautiful design. Simple in the execution and appearance.  With its shorter fenders, gentle curve, prominent exhaust lines and even more prominent V-Twin engine, it’s a sight to behold, especially the blacked-out version. With everything about the…

There’s one question I often ponder. What could I stick on a rabbit to make it look more like a robot? You too? Oh, I agree, a bear… yeah, a bear could be robotically accessorized really well, granted he’s not eating you instead. Maybe you don’t have an animal to stick robot part on, so here’s another option. The 3D printable RevoFrame chassis system. Xian Brock, aka WuLong Toys, has developed a wonderful articulating 11″ robot frame with attach points for all sorts of armour, weapons, gear, jets, blasters, blades and whatever other robot accessory you can churn out of your 3D printer. The RevoFrame Chassis system provides you with…

That’s not wordplay. This thing REALLY shocks you. STEER, a wearable armband designed by Creative Mode now on Kickstarter, aims to save countless lives by waking drowsy drivers on the road. The bracelet isn’t meant to shock drivers into submission, but rather monitor their vitals and deliver a gentle reminder that sleeping should be done in bed, not while barreling down the highway wrapped in a metal box. According to some pretty convincing stats, a whopping 25% of vehicle accidents are caused by drivers getting unsolicited shut eye. This isn’t due to their car being comfier than a La-Z-Boy on a rainy day. Nope, they’re just tired. Whether at night…

The curtains opened. If it wasn’t for the flames, the only light would have been 50,000 watts of hamster-powered light waves hitting our retinas off the strange ball of mirrors. The sounds were a warm, slow roasted lamb shanks of rhythm and funkadelic chord progressions sizzled in the oniony juices of these links. Lorenzo Lanfranconi – Simply superb set of colorful environments of waterfalls, mountaintops, steams and sea, some peaceful, some foreboding, all incredible. Card Slicin’ – I’ve seen trick card throwing, but nothing ever like this. Pin point accuracy by magician Rick Smith Jr. on Dude Perfect. Wow. Nunchuck Larry – My new favorite TV series action drama. Honor…

If you thought that skateboarding with a board made of LEGO bricks or a smart A.I. was weird, then you clearly have no idea of how crazy the human race can get. One look at the Onewheel+ and you’ll know where it gets its way-to-obvious name. Held together and powered by A GIGANTIC WHEEL, this upgrade to Future Motion Inc.’s 2014 invention is a marvel of simple design. With a built-in Hypercore motor inside the tire, the board can reach a speed of up to 19MPH without having to slow down–even if you’re launching a rocky crevasse (which you really shouldn’t be doing), the motor doesn’t scrimp out no matter…
