OK, well, this is undeniably awesome. This motorcycle suit is a detailed replica of Batman's suit from the Dark Knight, and it's pretty badass.
Sure, you'll be a pretty big geek if you wear this in public, but you'll certainly be the toughest-looking geek around. And really, people will be just as impressed with your dedication as they will be amused by your geekiness. I'm sure there's a happy balance there that you'll strike.

Why change it? Remember playing Road Rash?
By Underdog007 at 12:21 AM ON 07/18/09
I want this AS IS! You can't lose the spikes! I hope the launch off so I take out punks trying to pass me!

Now, wouldn't those spikes be dangerous?
By Bond, James Bond at 11:15 AM ON 07/18/09
I doubt those spikes are really that sharp. In fact, I would never wear that in public.

LOSE, not loose, you morons. Jeez! World full of morons, I tell you.
By Instant_Armaggedon at 1:12 PM ON 07/18/09
I can see a use for those spikes-- when your bad motorcycling skills send you on a road rash road trip, you can dig the spikes into the pavement to slow yourself down.

man.....all this is missing is a cape?
By Surak at 8:39 PM ON 07/18/09
that'd look bad *** driving around on a black segway

The whole [ product ] [ verb ] [ object ] pattern for titles is getting tiresome.

those spikes must be made of rubber or something like that, theyd be silly if it was metal, its a proper motorbike suit

It's "lose."
You lose something.
You set something loose.
By x at 3:09 AM ON 07/19/09
I'm guessing everybody that said "loose the spikes" was the same person.
By washout at 11:48 AM ON 07/19/09
geez.... one extra "o" and you guyzez are ready to crucify me naked and upside dawn. I'm sory I'll cut back on the "o's". Your right, I shuld read a bok or sumthing.
By anna at 2:54 PM ON 07/19/09
Does this material BREATHE? It looks like a LOT of plastic/rubber material. ANd go with flat black and lose the silver....

i want more & longer blades!
By KC Technology Blog at 10:59 AM ON 07/20/09
Oh yes this maybe a winner, and not just for posing on your bike! I can see other opportunities for wearing the Dark Knight suit! nudge nudge wink wink

I'm going to buy TWO! That way I'll be ready for the coming post-oil/gas "road-warrior" apocalypse. With my Batman gear stashed away, all I'll need is a cool motorcycle...lessons on riding...lots of weapons...lessons on shooting...hmm....
At least I'll look cool when well-armed bike gangs gun me down for my petrol! hehehe
By jay trini at 9:30 PM ON 07/22/09
Man!!! I gotta have at least a dozen. Does it have kevlar 5 or better? And what about the utility belts? and, and what about helmets...I gotta have helmets. And the bike and the mobile (the Jay mobile) and the plane and... and... I can't take it any more.... I wanna fight crime when i grow up!!!! HoooWaaaH!!!
By jay trini at 9:38 PM ON 07/22/09
Geek by day, geek hero by night... it's Blankman!!!...Ooops that's taken..... oh well, I'll find a name between now and when my shipment of suits and utility belts and the vehicle and the bike and other stuff comes.
By Kreyon at 12:36 PM ON 07/23/09
it's the first truly cool looking suit I have seen and while riding my CBR it would look Awsome! get a matching helmet and make sure that it's made in both summer and winter designs and they would sell these, at least a few. make sure that they are not too hot for florida, but able to add a liner for northern areas and make the shaped body pads out of a kevlar or similar material so it actually does protect the rider and this is a winner! anyone who says they wouldn't wear it is a "Loser" who probably rides a Scooter or Moped, or is afraid to Ride at all!
By DirectorWho at 1:19 PM ON 07/23/09
Yeah, I wish the pic was lighter, I lose (hee hee) half the detail to the dark background.
On the negative side, think of all the accidents caused by drivers whipping around to take a second look: "Did I just see what I think I saw?"

LOSE = get rid of, misplace, fail
LOOSE = your mom
By PeepsMcJuggs at 1:55 PM ON 07/23/09
This suit falls in line with "The Matrix" theory of costume design: stuff that looks really effing badass on the big screen makes you look like an emo idiot in real life.
By please at 2:23 PM ON 07/23/09
Needs a bigger cod piece
By addict at 3:07 PM ON 07/23/09
if you look at the other products they have this will most likely be a grand or more. :(

A most awesome halloween costume!

You are all idiots, making it out of the standard cycle uniform and making it an icon is easy, I think of the idea of the spikes as speed brakes when needed is a great idea. And a kevlar mesh underneath with pockets in the outer panels and inflatable bladders to cushion an impact in the upper and mid areas would also aid in avoiding road rash, like airbags. I think the suit is geek, and I love it, if i had the materials, I would make it better. We all have the need to look like a hero sometimes.
By fallsheadfirst at 3:21 AM ON 07/24/09
mgt.... You are thinking Guyver, head out of anime and Matrix, most suits DO look like this.
By Quidam at 12:11 PM ON 07/24/09

I want to wear this while riding a moped.
By kentuckyranger at 1:41 AM ON 08/01/09
I'm going to make a prediction.
I see in the near future Number 8 on Smoking Gun Presents, a Man wearing this Suit, attempting to jump a Row of Galactic Storm Troopers with a Dirt Bike and failing, taking half the Troopers with him...
By Northie at 1:26 AM ON 01/13/10
