The hoax people are calling surround the fact he somehow fabricated a motorcycle from his car with a broken swing arm, but couldn't simply fabricate a new or fixed swingarm.

- nicholassmith 14y agoFrom the people who've read the French that's not the only thing that was broken. GitHub is littered with people who came up with crazy solutions rather than fixing the problem in the existing. Hacking is not limited to just software.
- saraid216 14y agoI wonder how many otherwise intelligent people died reinventing the wheel before before they were able to do it from the safety of civilization.
- nicholassmith 14y agoPossibly thousands, with the propensity of wheels for exploding. In a more serious note that's the benefit of living in our civilisation, we can experiment and do what we want to even if it has no measurable long term or commercial benefit. Or if someone got there first, why not have a go, could pay off (for example, SpaceX had a go)
- ktizo 14y agoI wonder what the hoax people really are.
- lloeki 14y agoThe swing arm was bent, while the subframe was dead broken. That's not especially easy to fix.
