Cool gadget this Bike-Eleo However its got my head scratching with me wondering how you would steer it. Seems like the front fork is fixed on center.

    I would say that the front wheel assembly twists to rotate the front wheel left and right.

    I dunno...
    The three chrome rods look to fix that twistability, although it could be constrained within a collar, nevertheless that could only affect camber(lean pitch) not rotating direction of the front wheel axle as necessary for a turn. Cant figure if the chrome rods are shocks/bumpers or hydraulic pistons one on the dorsal that kanks all mecanical logic for me.

    I'm not saying it would work, but the bike has 5 dials. The helm does this:

    Motorcycles are primarily steered by leaning. As for turning in tight spots, lock the front brakes, throttle up and skew the back end around. Studio need a good particle project function to make the smoking tire effect.
