charlesrg Posted December 27, 2016 Share Posted December 27, 2016 Is there any updated info about Rockwheel EUC's ? I e-mailed them multiple times but no answers. Even this forum section here only has old posts. I can't find any info on new models neither places to buy besides only one place in NYC that charges $1600 for a GR16. Is that normal price ?

Planetpapi Posted December 27, 2016 Share Posted December 27, 2016 I don't know about the pricing but wondering what is the compelling reason to go after Rockwheel now that you have a lot more options from reputable players like Gotway, Inmotion, Segway, KinSong etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It reminds me of Uniwheel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaxLinux Posted December 28, 2016 Share Posted December 28, 2016 A clue in the Rockwheel mystery: Rockwheel electric unicycle re-branded Pinwheel. Quite recently, Pinwheel rebranded their company as Rockwheel electric Unicycle. Right since then, the leading Pinwheel Cycles came to be known as the Rockwheel cycles. The collaboration turned out to be massively successful as Rockwheel came up with products that were tad more elegant and powerful. Since its very first inception, Pinweel became quite a rage because of the superb performance and power driven motorized unit. You will totally love this unicycle, if you love riding at high speed without any possible glitch. Rockwheel Electric Unicycle, now named as Pinwheel came up with some of the best and the most affordably priced unicycles you’ve ever come across. http://www.pinwheelonline.com/News/Reading/rockwheel-airwheel-ips-kingsong-pinwheel-rebrand-oem.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to Urban360, Rockwheel GT16 680Wh 60V - The return (preorder - delivery Feb / March 2017). Will it happen?? The legendary Rockwheel is soon back in the ring of the mono-electric wheel after a long period of absence risking to relegate the brand in the category Dinosaur. This return will be done with a 16-inch model, the Rockwheel GT16: 60V 680Wh, 2000W of nominal motor power ... the positioning will remain "BRUTE FORCE". https://store.urban360.com/produit/rockwheel-gt16-mono-roue-electrique/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LamNg Posted December 30, 2016 Share Posted December 30, 2016 It is not dead. And I got no news about the re-branded, mostly a fake company using RW to get some eyeballs. I've joined the crowd-funding of GT16 and we are receiving the first batch of this new EUC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
