Haha yes! In the description he says the bike could go up to 150kmh. Can you imagine?

It's an expensive way to kill yourself. I couldn't think of a worse bike to strap a jet engine to, small wheeled folding commuter? Stable at high speed?

Up next on this year's Darwin awards, the person who decided that the laws of physics didn't apply to them......

but first, here is a clip of a boy who concreted his head into a microwave, which we still think is far less daft than strapping a jet engine to a Brompton.

I love the eccentric genius behind it. That is one heavily customised Brompton - and thank goodness, he's replaced the stock brakes. Bromptons are surprisingly stable rides, but no, not my first choice for a bike doing 100mph.
