You have the song title correct but the singer in this video is most defiantly France Gall. Although April March did do a version of the song.

actually I think James Roe originally performed it

That look like a bike that Steve Jobs would ride...

"The iBike... it is just... awesome."

It is nice, but it also looks sooooo weak...

Except that it WORKS and performs a useful function.

Is there an advantage to a forkless design that isn't apparent to me?

Hipster street cred.

The advantage is awesomeness.

Also, you can cause a forked bike to jam simply by shoving a stick through the spokes.

You can do the same to this bike. Unless you drive perfectly straight, the stick doesn't drop to the center of the spokes and is also short enough in length that it clears the frame in any position...yeah not really that much more effective.

I also would not want to be in a non-forked, lack of suspension bike, in any environment where a stick of that strength could find itself between my spokes without human aid.

Fun concept but ultimately a gimmick.

I question the awesomeness of this.

It's a cruiser. Cruisers don't have suspension.

Correct.

Although I actually prefer Elinore's - a good friend of mine - cover much better. Engines revving, surf guitars screaming, and her voice is just raucous.

In Soviet Russia Bike Forks You!

Ever take it off any sweet jumps?

This made me think of back when I was in 2nd grade. I don't know why, but we had a test where we had to name three parts of a bicycle. I had gotten a BMX bike for my birthday earlier that year, and I had to have the fork replaced because I'm rough on shit like that. With that fresh on my mind I put fork as one of the parts on the test, and the bitch counted the answer wrong.

I hated my 2nd grade teacher. I'm not the kind of person who holds a grudge and I don't let things get to me, but for some reason I'm still bitter about this teacher. If she's even still alive and I ran into her on the street, I'd probably punch her in the face.

Insanely great?

This is an awesome way to make bikes more susceptible to easy damage!
