I unfortunately bought those too thinking that they are mini segways and would be quickly adopted due to the ease of learning. But they are limited in use and awkward to transport. They are super easy to learn, takes seconds to a few minutes for your brain to figure out. -
I think people who are not familiar with EUC's the ones who see us riding around see it as a toy. Not the ones who look into it and start on the hobby. How would they know that the wheels we are riding around are so fast and have such crazy range. That is the number one shocker when they hear me saying 30mile or 50 miles of range. their eyes light up.

Yipee! Looking forward to your review. Gee, I wish I had a close friend like @Jason McNeil 😂 -
Price has dropped. You can't compare the price of the top of the line. The entry wheels are the ones we should be comparing with the initial wheels of many years ago. I remember the first solowheel i saw that got me hooked back in 2014 cost $2000. I instead bought a knockoff the airwheel that cost $1000. you can get a ninebot one for under $500.

65-160 means they expect us to believe 650Wh goes 65km These ranges are for the different battery sizes. @Kristof Willen That's very accurate! -

True. Especially young people (who tend to be less confident) will be more easily impressed/bullied into not riding if the legislation isn't clear. -
Hmm, i don't agree with you on the niche thing. Take the electric scooter for an example it blew up and people are all over it, is it safer than a one wheel - hell no , is it more practical- hell no , are the scooters cheaper - hell no. I think the problem why we aren't seeing ecus everywhere is because people don't know what it is and how much better of a transportation vehicle it is than a bike, skateboard, or a scooter (i'm talking about city transport) Not a marketing specialist maybe some company will figure it out how to get to the people, like airwheel is trying with their adds and newbie friendly features like extra wheels or the 2 wheel model. I still wanna believe that ecus gonna be the future of transport in the cities. -

I usually divide Wh by 20 to obtain a realistic idea of range : 650 Wh = 32km 1300Wh = 65km 1600 Wh = 80km That's for an 'average' western person (weight 80-90 kg). -
Over the span of ten years the cost of batteries has dropped quite a bit, I think to 1/5 the cost, so wheels should be getting cheaper. And the technology is more mature so the cost should be getting lower. Instead, wheels are getting more expensive and the number of people who ride wheels doesn't see to be getting higher very quickly. So what's happening? 1. The Chinese are taking our worthless dollars, with some inflation. 2. Automobiles are in the same situation; they get around it by offering sub-prime loans. The vast majority of cars, even five year old cars, still have loans on them. No such loans are offered to EUCs (although interestingly most eBikes do offer zero interest loans). 3. EScooters take the majority share of new riders. Hell, after riding a powerful one I'm tempted to buy one. 4. EBikes, see point 3. 5. EUCs are primarily bought new by well-heeled enthusiasts so the low and mid range wheels are getting ignored. Your more expensive wheel is much better than your older wheels. It's not just a cosmetic change. -

I have three in development right now, just getting back into the swing of things after my son's wedding out in Canmore, great time, but I had been dreading doing the father-of-the-groom speech for the past six months, nice to have that done. Super pumped to finish up on the first one after your having mentioned it though.
