Forks?!? Who needs 'em? Here's a bike that rides without one

It uses a couple of rods that go from the handlebar to the seat and then down the frame and forward to the front wheel to accomplish steering. It looks like it's inspired by a car's steering system. Video of it in action here:

No forks (as such) on this either

Looks motorbike inspired like seen on Italjet Scooters or a Yamaha sports tourer of the past, also similar to how a reliant robin would be set up :lol:
 
Apparently it's a 'di-cycle' which can be used on road and water due to the hydra-foil type wings on it.
