Are you ready for a plague of Vantablack painted invisible bicycles?

It's your very own personal black hole. Other riders and drivers
won't see a bicycle, but instead will see a black hole moving across
the background scenery. Head and street lights won't light up the
bicycle because Vantablack absorbs 99.96% of the light that hits it
with little or nothing left that can be reflected. The VBx1 paint
isn't available quite yet. If you're in the custom bicycle building
or painting business, here's your opportunity to do something truly
dangerous and potentially quite popular.

The disgusted color should probably be very black. Fortunately, you
have some time before you can be colored, as the paint is not yet
available. I wouldn't call it "reckless stupidly". More like "wreck
stupidity" or more correctly "wreck stupidity" as painting your
bicycle with it would likely cause a wreck or accident of some flavor.
Please note that the success of new innovations are largely dependent
on how badly, easily, and often they can be abused. The Internet was
little more than a playground for "researchers" before it was
discovered to be a great way to distribute stolen software, music,
videos, information, viruses, and fake news. Canvasback would likely
be limited to military camouflage applications, were it not for the
efforts of chronic abusers, such as myself.

An Vantablack bicycle should likely be considered a "minimalist"
bicycle, which goes well with the minimalist trend found in minimalist
Fixie machines, and the "gravity bike" which is missing brakes,
pedals, and common sense. Such bicycles are judged by what has been
removed, rather than the more traditional, what has been added.

Warming up for when the VBx1 paint is available:

If anyone asks to see the bicycle, offer them the line from "The
Emperors New Cloths", that only the worthy are able to see the
bicycle.

Thank you, but applause is not necessary.

There was applause, but you'll never hear it 'cos it was vantablacked. -- AJ
