I can just see the first lawsuit now

I was riding down the highway with an unopened beer in the holder. I got to some lights and needed a drink so i opened it. the resulting explosion of beer out of the can meant most of it landed on me and the ground. So i bent down to the tarmack to hoover up my beer.

Thats when the truck hit me.

And thats why i wanna sue Bearfootwillies, if it wasn't for their damn gadget i wouldnt have wasted a beer!

The only way you could use one of those in the UK is wearing an open-face lid (in the states, lids are mostly optional!).

If anyone is considering wearing an open-face lid, they clearly haven't seen what can happen to a person's head in an off when wearing one!!

all depends on how fast your going through said bends, as centrifugal forces willl keep said liquid in the cup.

But in the UK it's against the Law to drink and Ride.

Excellent idea for a cruiser. Drink just needs a lid for accelerating and braking mostly, take it easy and cornering would be fine due to centrifugal force.

When the Soho massive get moved on from Frith Street this occasionally causes a problem with full cups of latte / tea and other substances.

All of which are now solved.

Genius.

P.S the genius solution may well not work on faired bikes with clip ons, but I like the general creative direction we're going for.
