New ride-able, wearable bicycles at {what next}

March 11, 2012

Ever since we created the bicycle psoe prop, we”ve had so many requests to make the bikes rideable, that we”ve finally made them! They”re wearable, with custom animations, so you can ride virtually anywhere in Second Life. We”ve even made a set for the guys, as why should girls have all the fun and a two Shorties sets too, for youth/kid-sized avatars.

There are six sets to choose from – with little unique details in the baskets and the bike rack , but also a plain or BMX style set included in the adult sizes. Each bicycle has realistic animated wheels, and some even come with a little bell which rings on touch

The Shorties for Boys or Girls, as with the adult sized bicycles, include 4 colours of each bicycle.
