(Video) Incredible Custom-Built Hoverbike

Created by Jim Chalmers, this one-of-a-kind "Hoverbike" uses a large fan to lift the bike and propel it forward. It's capable of reaching speeds of up to 50mph. Pricing and availability have not yet been announced. Video after the jump.

Well, hopefully prototype is the key word. How's it do on curbs. It won't work on water long. The water will take her if she flounders for a moment due to the small size of the cushion.

Why not add a control system to control the direction fo the hoverbike and make the steering much easier for the pilot?

Oh yeah, And when I start to sell my hoverbikes, I will be pricing them at about 6, 000 dollars or so. I mean they have to be a lot of money or they'd be outrageously cheap. So....around $6000.
