      They don’t discuss specific speeds, but this is from the last paragraph:

      This jigger, according to the manufacturers, makes you handily quicker than an equivalent swimmer with fins on.

        What’s “handily quicker”? A lot quicker? A good phrase for selling a novelty product?

        I have to wonder how the Seabike, as shown exclusively in a swimming pool rather than any of the many seas on the planet, actually performs.

            Yknow, I don’t think anyone’s ever made a bike powered version of those insane £200 electronic masturbators there are memes about these days… Eco wank anyone?

        I’m very skeptical about that. It’s an expensive augmented swimming device that says it’s faster than fins but doesn’t prove it with stats or even just a side-by-side video…?

      Why would I want this as opposed to an electric one that I hold in my hands, that can zoop me across the ocean without consuming extra oxygen from physical exertion?
