Even though I like the look of spikes on bikes, I would never put them on.

+1 on what they said

they look cool and all but all but ide be worried about getin into an accident and winding up with one of the spikes stuck in your face.

ive seen quite a few accident vids of where the riders head makes contact with the handle bars.

yep, goto agree with everyone, spikes could impale you or impale a very unlucky pedestrian.

that spike would go straight through your helmet on impact.

The spikes look great and would be cool for show use, but to ride with them that close to my body-NO WAY! There are tons of way to get hurt on a bike and we don't need to ad to them LOL!
