I'm assuming that the robot can only ride a bike and can't walk on its own.

The point to some of these crazy creations might not be the object itself but rather the technology behind making that object. Instead of putting out some boring press release that says "we invented a new method to do (insert something here)", they made an aesthetically pleasing little gizmo to display their new technology. Who knows, with such a powerful little self-balanced thing like this, we might be seeing some Japanese competition with the Segway soon!
