Great idea, but it seems to be severely over engineered. Simply vibrating the left or right side of the handlebar should be enough.<p>The two things I really don&#x27;t like about this are<p>1) creating friction at the steerer. As a cyclist, we&#x27;re steering around obstacles and want to have instant reaction. Adjusting the expected force necessary to turn the wheel can be dangerous, or just inconvenient. Even if it is just a small amount, we&#x27;ll need to oversteer that small amount.<p>2) mechanically move a heavy piece of steel to the end of the handlebar. Similar to my issue with friction, we&#x27;re introducing an inconsistent feel, but here you&#x27;re also moving a weight. What happens when the mechanism breaks and the weight falls to the outside of the handlebar. That &#x27;natural&#x27; feel isn&#x27;t so natural anymore.<p>For a first generation at least, I&#x27;d like to see them do something simple, then if they feel it needs these extra bells and whistles, then add them in.
