so you wanna see what i'm seeing? this is what i'm seeing, unless someone else stole my phone. then you're seeing what they're seeing. maybe they'll even call you from my phone. would you answer? i wouldn't. who knows? it might be me!
WHAT KIND OF FREAKY SEX SHOPS DO YOU HANG OUT AT????
outstanding guess, btw. but wrong.
another interesting guess. i could see how that could work, the only problem is that bike seat posts don't have threaded ends, and there's nowhere for a seat to attach to it. good try, but nope.
It's that kid's whistle-thingy for summoning Godzilla. Threaded so it can attach to his dental braces.

hmmm it almost looks like some kind of dump valve for a turbocharger, but that wouldn't have the spring exposed, I'm guessing some kind of pressure actuated valve?
It's a Zebedee-Terminator.
Boing! Time for death.
I could turn it into something that you COULD shove up SOMEONE's ass (we know HOW I'm talking about...)
such outstanding answers i'm getting! all wrong, none close, but all outstanding! i like slinka's answer, rich's (why i don't know), joe is obviously a man after my own heart (an excellent venture), but wrong. And my dear Melinda. You might just win the best answer contest so far. Highly original. Continue on!
well then, it's quite clearly a thingymebob, designed purely for doing wotsit, to the doodaa.....help us out here!??
It's one of those egg whisk pedals that work with SPuDs.
Made by shimano
hanuman is pretty much there.. wrong manufacturer, close on the name, not sure what SPuDs are, but that's just about it.
Damn. I was absolutely sure I could use it to summon Godzilla. Maybe I was wrong about what orifice it could be threaded into....

It's not a shimano - I think it's an eggbeater, probably Crank Bros. Might even be the stainless version though I can't tell...they're good kit though I'm used to the more conventional models.
I believe it's a Sproket, manufactured by Spacely's Sprockets.
in that case, does it come with a free space-dog?
rednc2 gets it - Crank Bros. Eggbeater Stainless bicycle pedal. although he ran with hanuman's answer... call it a tie. i liked painloathing's answer, too, but unfortunately, i don't live in a cartoon, and could not give you credit. I think Melinda still gets credit for most creative for "smurf-hammer."
ooh, yippee! what do i win?
i did actually know it without help - i bought a pair for a friend recently. and bloody nice they are.
Thank you! *bows deeply* I am forever searching for something new that will surpass this one :)
bike seat thingy for comfort.... with the spring.
Bugger, I knew that one straight off cos I'd thought about them but the £80 price tag put me off to start with.
Maybe though they'd've stopped me eating tarmac the first time I tried me SPDs... You have to laugh when you're lying with your bike in the middle of the road at a traffic lights for the first time...
cool.
