I'll take one. If someone comes up with one for snowmachines, I'll take one of them too.

I would think up here you would have to drive real easy, seems you could tork it pretty bad if you got into thicker brush with a 7-8 hundred plus pound machine pushing it.

LMAO! Imagine sitting in a treestand watching a hydro line and you here a humming. Then you see trees and branches falling down like dominoes heading for you!

A few things to think about.It weighs 175 lbs they say,on the side of a bike that would be tricky on rough or sloped terrain.Sharpening all those blades would take some time.It looks like it only cut some of the brush and just pushed some aside.
I didn't like where the guy reached out with his arm to push brush away from the blades.I can also see the odd big brush getting jammed between those blades.
At the price I would have to try it out before buying.

Forget that fear of gravity-get a little savagery in your life.

Wouldn't all the off-cuts be falling in front of the machine ?

It is a novel idea for sure. as stated above, watching from behind the lower stuff is still there.
i guess price is all about how many buy it.

The lower brush wouldn't matter to me, it would be covered in snow by the time I needed to use the trail. Looks like it would be easy to put on a snow go too. I would imagine the teeth are replaceable but not sure. Ive got 50 miles of trail where it would be nice!
