    OK, annoying Aussie bloke aside, I've never seen a wheel do that...

    I can confirm it is not possible to fit an effective motor inside a Cervelo!

    I can also confirm that video was subject to extensive discussion here at the time ;)

    If he had tipped over going uphill and the wheel kept spinning furiously I'd be suspicious. Wheel keeps spinning after slipping over on a quick descent? Not unusual. I think the video quality seems to indicate that the back wheel had stopped at some point, but this clearly was not the case.

    I think the wheel stopped spinning when the motor bike ran over it

    All assumptions are out the window on this one, if conspiracy theorists are to be believed!

    All this film has done is reminded me how much I really hate listening to Aussie's.

    Beastly is the only one with the motorised Cervelo I think
