WOWWWWW! That is one serious pile of bikes. I wish we could see how wide and long that pile of junk IS. It's China,, so, if there is a pile of junk like That, I wonder if it's visible from space?

Saw a similar thing with Chinese electric cars, manufacturers are building them to appease some government target and them letting them die with littloe or no use.

I think those were just the ones not running off the assembly line.

Sorry to drag the topic off a bit - but China tried the Shared Bicycle and Shared Electric bicycle programs, and it has resulted in a lot of "extra" vehicles. This is a quote from one of the articles:
But the two-wheelers soon took over pavements and spilled over into bike lanes and streets, parked haphazardly by users who sometimes simply tossed the bikes into shrubbery, creating a headache for urban authorities and pedestrians. Many bikes suffered damage or were stolen, while some were even repurposed into makeshift barricades when Covid-19 broke out last year.
The article says that the number of bicycles has been limited to correct the problem - so the excess bikes have been removed from the cities and taken to these storage sites.

My as$ , just add a bolt action rifle for each bike and you have an invasion force. Wave after wave after wave , time to sharpen my Ginsu knife. That would give Rambo night sweats !

svartpilen: 2 wheels, engine. seat, tank, sounds like my S40! A true minimalist bike, bet it's a hoot on a country road!
Cheers!

I almost like the Svartpilen and Vitpilen. I think there might be some untapped potential.
There is something there that keeps me looking at it. It's like a futuristic 80s crotch rocket crossed with a modern naked bike.
I think it needs a fender or plate on the tail and maybe a little cleaning up.
