Well, what I read IN the article was a range of 60 miles, and a top speed of 87 mph.

Scuba tanks are pressurized to around 3000 psi, IIRC.

Hooligans ping, por favor

Me either.......

Air devices require CFM. A tank small enough to fit on a cycle can’t deliver many cubic feet.

You can extend the range by towing one of these
