The Schiller X1 water bike will appeal to those who love to cycle around, and have more or less exhausted every single trail that the surrounding neighborhood and even city offers. Perhaps it is time to look at the situation from a different angle – how about cycling on water instead? The Schiller X1 water bike will let you ride on open water, and with its high end anodized, powder coated aluminum cycling frame, proprietary two-stage 8:1 gear reduction with Gates Carbon Drive belt system, and twin rudderless pontoons, you can travel as far as 10 miles per hour.
It takes just 10 minutes for the experienced person to assemble and disassemble it, and tips the scales at approximately 45 pounds, making it easily transportable. It is not going to come cheap, however, as the Schiller X1 will cost you $6,495 for the vanilla version, while the limited “Founder’s Edition” (limited to just 250 units) will cost a whopping $8,775. Still cheaper than the operation bill though.
