The "Hoverbike", created by Jim Chalmers, is in it's own league and will most likely bring a whole new spectrum of "bike" gangs into the streets (To bad they aren't street legal).
Travelling at up to 50 Mph and available in electric and gasoline powered engines, this revolutionary form of transportation will have you hovering off into the sunset.
Implications - Designers are continuously looking for ways to create levitating cars commonly seen in movies. They may not be here any time soon, but once technology further evolves, the car industry will create ground-breaking vehicles that brings the imagination of futuristic cars to life, attracting consumers to a whole new world of transportation.
