Wouldn’t be caught dead on an honest-to-goodness Segway? How’s about this creature? The Legway, an appropriately dubbed steampunk‘d Segway, ditches the electric motor in favor of Fred Flintstone-esque motoring techniques, and it also relies almost entirely on recycled materials. The crazy part? Its creator even took the time to hand craft a step-by-step guide to building your own, which undoubtedly foreshadows the real human transporter revolution.

Vid’s after the break, and it’s absolutely hilarious.
