There is no shifter, there are no brakes, there are no gears, there is no speed. You tilt forward to go forward (slowley) and backwards to stop (slowley). It’s very cool, but as I just said, it’s a sit on Segway with styling.
Not safe for the guy who invented it, but give him a break, despite (or perhaps because) making a brilliant lookin thing he’s an 18 year old techno geek. I’d give it a bash downhill, but then I ride a motorcycle on a daily 45 minute commute in the rush hour down London way, so danger’s relative.
Screw more than one wheel.
It’s got two wheels, side by side. It’s essentially a sit-on Segway with motorcycle styling.
“Screw pedals.”
You obviously don’t need a rear brake pedal. Maybe the shifter is on the handlebar?

Yeah 40 mph, really slow.
It doesn’t go 40mph, in theory it can currently go 25mph, but he’s not taken it over 15 because it’s not safe. And yes, that is slow, really slow.
Vampire Hunter D anyone?
What the fuck do you mean not safe? The whole purpose of having stupidly useless technology like that is to do not safe things! Lame bike is Lame.
