Wtf that's like 70km/h. 40 starts to get sketchy even on 26x5 fat tires with suspension. On those tiny little shit pucks the rider will have numb wrists and a real shit time considering literally nowhere has perfect pavement.
26x5? Damn, those are some fat tires.
43mph on a scooter is incredibly fast. I have one that go 25mph and that is too much for me. 15-20 is my pref for urban riding.
With those tiny wheels I imagine this would feel scary as hell. I've been ~45mph on my ebike and that's quite scary even with big wheels. You had better wear a helmet AND a diaper if you're taking this thing up to 43mph on anything but a perfectly paved track. It takes 1 pothole to turn you into a quarter mile long red streak on the pavement.
TIL: Segway is still in business.
I saw two guys riding those monowheel things in 5 pm traffic on a 50mph road today, didn't know they could go that fast, it was crazy
"WITNESS ME!"
-50mph monowheel riders probably
Need me a 43 mph one-wheeled contraption.
Completely pointless as regulation is being brought up to limit them. My country already has limit of 25km/h in place and other rules for scooters.
Ebikes, bicycles, scooters, skateboards, longboards, eboards, motorcycles, skates, unicycles: Whatever floats your goat, this is all things micromobility!

micromobility is seen as a potential solution to moving people more efficiently around cities"
