Is there any advantage to a penny farthing bicycle other than to get people's attention?

can't do a wheelie

Van did nothing wrong, literally every other vehicle than a fucking fixie could stop in that amount of distance.

It's probably the most efficient in converting leg power into speed. With no chain or gears to eat it up.

>have to use short as all hell cranks to maximize wheel size because your feet will lose contact with the pedals halfway into the stroke otherwise
