NYC kids build the world's loudest bicycles

Sick of seeing their big brothers having all the fun with their pimped out car stereos, a group of kids in Queens, New York dubbed the Stereobike Crew, figured that with a little ingenuity they could put a thumpin' sound rig on their BMX bikes.

While the resulting sound machines aren't exactly easy to ride, practicality be damned, this is all about style and making an impression. With catchy names like Tinnitus Rex and Frankenbike, the rigs are built using car stereo speakers and amps with thousands of watts powered by car batteries.

The kids, all of whom are immigrants from Trinidad, have now had their story preserved on film in a short documentary called Made In Queens, directed by Randall Stevens for MTV2 Films.
