DTV Shredder By Ben Gulak

He put off attending MIT for a year to work on the project, raising funds and moving to Boston to open a small office in Cambridge. He started the company BPG Motors to develop the motorcycle. He enrolled in MIT in fall of 2008.
• The Shredder
At age 22 while at MIT, Gulak created the DTV Shredder, an all-terrain vehicle. According to Gulak, "In a recession it doesn’t make sense to have to buy an expensive snowmobile that you can ride for three months of the year and an all-terrain vehicle that you can ride for four months of the year. I wanted to make something small enough that you could fit it in the back of any car. And I wanted it to be something you’d be able to ride all year, whether in snow, sand, or mud." The small vehicle has Segway-like handlebars, wheels similar to tank treads, and can tow up to 400 pounds.
The vehicle became popular with X Games fans. In late 2010, Gulak posted some videos of a prototype online, which by the next day had accumulated 50,000 hits, and a million hits within a week. Some bloggers assumed it was a new military device, while Gulak claims it was also intended as an extreme sports vehicle. Dual tracked vehicle has the top speed of 30 mph or 48 km/h.
