Gentlemen, the future of bikes is here. It looks like something from the Flintstones cartoon

This is the new bike of the future as reported by The Daily Mail. With a built in harness that dangles the rider from the frame of the bike, the feet are used to accelerate and brake the bike. No pedals. No seat. Just the harness and your feet.

FLIZ comes from the German word “flitzen” and means speeding… with your feet.
The concept is to provide healthy, ecological mobility in overcrowded urban spaces.
The frame has a five point belt which is said, despite appearances, to provide a comfortable, ergonomic ride between running and biking.
The belt replaces the saddle and adjusts your position. [source]
