"All the rad messengers and hipsters are riding "Flintstone" (or "Flintsie" for short) now. Pedals, cranks, chainwheels, chains, and cogs are for wimps and consumerist sheep who don't dare to dream. Flintsie is where it's at."

Hey, don't forget to vasiline up your bare seatpost!

Sidetrak made a bike back in the early 90s with no seat. It was supposed to be a techical trials type bike. I don't think it sold well.

I actually saw a seatless bike last week in the mountains, I regret not taking a picture of it now. But damn, here's a similar model online:

I know a few trials riders back in Tahoe and two of them have seatless bikes. One kid was sixth in the world at the time.

i saw a green one of those on campus this spring, hopping around at red square. something like a 20t chainring, it was ridiculously small. no saddle and low tire pressure but the guy could hop around on it like a pogo stick.
