I saw this and had to share. Guess what? You dont have to sneak around quietly in your EV anymore. Now you can add that throaty growl of an ICE to your ride. Using the same idea as cards flicking on the spokes, you can amplify that sound through a muffler/ tailpipe shaped megaphone.
Advertisement reads as: "Vroom! Vroom! Turn a regular bicycle into a MEAN MACHINE! Tomax Turbospoke adds growl to any ride! Ever put cards in the spokes of your bike as a kid? The Turbospoke does one better. It uses specially designed replaceable cards that flick in the spokes of the bike. The sound is then channeled through the chrome acoustic chamber to create a GROWL people will notice. Of course, the Turbospoke isn't just for fun. It's also a valuable safety accessory. Besides the added noise, a red reflector on the end of the cylinder gives a visual cue to drivers and pedestrians of the presence of your child. Set includes all this: Acoustic exhaust cylinder Reflector cap Clamp Turbospoke custom decals 3 replaceable Turbospoke cards All necessary assembly hardware. Some light assembly required. Ages 3 and up." http://www.sportsmansguide.com/cb/cb.asp?a=231325 __________________________________ Yahoo! FareChase: Search multiple travel sites in one click. http://farechase.yahoo.com
