    We’ve brought you some pretty weird Kickstarter campaigns over the years.

    Remember the ‘Pizza Fork’?

    I just check in on their Kickstarter page. It opens to a very sad “funding unsuccessful”.

    We could have told you that, Pizza Fork people.

    Thankfully, the failed funding on that front means that we still live in a world where it doesn’t exist. It’s good to give thanks for small mercies.

    The Kickstarter campaign coming your way today is actually something I would like to see in the world.

    It’s called CLIP, and it’s an affordable and innovative way to turn any regular bicycle into an E-bike with minimal effort.

    Take a look:

    He makes a pretty compelling argument.

    Let’s break it down:

    By easily attaching it to your bike, any bike, CLIP will provide that extra push when you face an uphill climb or that last stretch of a long commute.

    It’s light enough to toss in with everything else in yourbackpack and compatible with both shared bikes and your personal bike.

    Finally, when you arrive, you’ll be able to simply unclip it from your bike, carry it with you, and recharge it fast on your desk for the ride back home.

    This could be a double win. Cycling to work doesn’t have to mean alienating your colleagues while you stink up the office, and maybe we’re one step closer to seeing the end of weekend cyclists in full Spandex scaring other patrons away from coffee shops.

    At the time of writing, the CLIP creators have raised $16 572 towards their project.

    Again, if we can get them to design a way to stop people from wearing full Spandex in coffee shops, they’ll have our blessing.
