We’ve always been jealous of those cartoon characters whose legs turn into blurry, rotating wheels when they run fast, so this new invention might be the closest we get. Wheel maker Max Knight created this bike for Intersection Magazine by replacing each tire with 8 sneakers (and socks!) and then turning each “spoke” into a sturdy, leg-like bar.
