I don't. Looks cool, though, and not a bad extra to have for the rider who wants to extend the useful life of one's shoulders, elbows, wrists, and hands.

I hve one and think it is what kept me riding. My shoulders are pretty well blown out but with the powerpod I can work as hard or as easy as I want while going at a fair rate of speed. As one said in the video, it took me from being a disabled rider going less than 10 mph to passing most a/b riders I see on the road. Love it and am thankful it came about when it did.

Wow! I want one! Too bad my "real" handcycle was stolen, and I only have a clip-on now.

Mine was stolen too, first day in a new pad. Had it on my back deck in a secluded neighborhood. Didn't think to lock it up that first night, too busy, and I wasn't really worried. My bad.

Mine was locked up (two locks) inside a bike cage at my housing complex (graduate student housing). I wish I'd had it listed on my renter's insurance, I'm not sure when I'll ever have that much money again!
