Id suspect this device to be illegal. simple fact is the holding pin protrudes further than the wheel arc.. FAIL!!.. daft idea.

Says on the listing:

"Design includes special quick release system and overload prevention features to prevent damage from ploughing immovable objects (like kerbs and large pot holes!)"

overload prevention features ??? so what do they do pop off when they hit somthing hard like ice, you'd have to stop every 10 meters and reattached them if they didnt end up shredding the tyre and geting lodged in the front suspension

That really has to be the daftest thing I have ever seen.
It's a bit sad 'cos the guy selling them seems to think it's a commercially viable product. :o

Like its been said if it did come off it would be very nasty.

for the price of them you can get two good snow tyres, silly idea, feel sorry for the nutters that shelled out that kind of money on some bent pipe
