French company Seabike has developed a swimming device that uses your own leg power to accelerate you through the water at superhuman speeds. This crank-driven pusher prop looks a bit like an underwater unicycle... We'd love to take one for a spin!
Yknow, I don’t think anyone’s ever made a bike powered version of those insane £200 electronic masturbators there are memes about these days… Eco wank anyone?
I’m very skeptical about that. It’s an expensive augmented swimming device that says it’s faster than fins but doesn’t prove it with stats or even just a side-by-side video…?
Why would I want this as opposed to an electric one that I hold in my hands, that can zoop me across the ocean without consuming extra oxygen from physical exertion?

They don’t discuss specific speeds, but this is from the last paragraph:
What’s “handily quicker”? A lot quicker? A good phrase for selling a novelty product?
I have to wonder how the Seabike, as shown exclusively in a swimming pool rather than any of the many seas on the planet, actually performs.
About 30 long bananes per hour.
Yo this device gives handies! Quick!

Yeah. I’m just gonna say it’s not quicker, and certainly not more efficient.
