Can this be for real? (1 Viewer)

The concept seems plausible, but that rope looks awful thin. Anyone know about this? Lots of Cruisers in the video.

It's real. But you'd have to have a perfectly straight line or the wire would come off. Or what if your hubs where burried in mud or under water? Or if you where in a tight rocky area where this would get ripped off when you slid on a bolder.

I think it's made in Australia, hence, lots of Cruisers.

I remember ads for wheel winches back in the day. Adding the “fairlead” at the other wheel does straighten out the line a bit. I’ve also seen pulleys attached to a bumper to direct the line to the wheel.
