Children Love It, Parents Commit Suicide 2 March 2011   Author: Mike Werner   Location: Travelling Here's a great toy for children, and a nightmare for the adults. It's a motorcycle exhaust for bicycles. You know, those things that make a motorcycle sound when pedalling. In the "old days", we used to put playing cards attached to the frame with clothespins, and the spokes of the wheel would make a nice sound. It was fun for kids, and a bit irritating for adults, but you could live with it. But you can't stop progress, even in children toys. Now you can really turn a quite day into an adult's nightmare.... The Turbospoke is a complete motorcycle-style exhaust for your bicycle. The kit comes with 3 "cards" that each supply a different sound, so in total, you can chose between 6 different motorcycle sounds. No batteries, since it's pedal powered, and you even have decals you can put on the exhaust. Watch the video below, and imagine first you are a kid, and then imagine you're an adult (or neighbor). US$ 14.17. On Amazon: Turbospoke the Bicycle Exhaust System. (Thanks Ian R.)
