I'd feel happier riding it with rear rack on, just in case of the small chance I slid off the back of the saddle......
Re: Circular saw wheels!
The risk assessment must have been interesting.
Re: Circular saw wheels!
Wonderful. Thanks for posting.
And as PT1029 and hamster imply... what could possibly go wrong?

PS: Obviously workshops across the land are already buzzing (!) with replicas. A little more eye protection during the metalwork would also be wise.

And just to complete the scene he needs a chainsaw chain for those difficult logs. 
Peugeot 531 pro, Dawes Discovery Tandem, Dawes Kingpin X2, Raleigh 20 stowaway X2, 1965 Moulton deluxe, Falcon K2 MTB dropped bar tourer, Rudge Bi frame folder, Longstaff trike conversion on a Giant XTC 840, Giant Bowery, Apollo transition.

Re: Circular saw wheels!
reminds me a bit of ice speedway;

insane lean angles and mahoosive danger, even with the long mud(ice) guards and body armour. A bicycle with similar hazards....? No thank you!
cheers

Re: Circular saw wheels!
Chris Froome is reported as saying the technology is “not quite there yet”.
Re: Circular saw wheels!
Very entertaining and well made video. However, a pair of spiked bike tyres would have worked just as well and been a lot quicker.

Re: Circular saw blade wheels!
Reckon the ride quality might be a tad harsh, and the rotating weight would be hideous.... If you rode around in a circle you could cut a hole in the ice and go fishing 
Re: Circular saw blade wheels!
The front "tyre" is the wrong way around and the brake discs will turn the flange on the hub when the brakes are applied. Apart from that it looks like a straightforward solution to a problem. 
Re: Circular saw blade wheels!
Makes the debate in pro cycle racing regarding disc brakes a bit lightweight.
