You know...I saw a dude carrying one of these last week on the train. Had no idea what it was until now. http://www.airebike.com/airwheel-x3/
I looked at the specs and you get 1000 recharges out of the it "up to" 10 miles on a charge. Is $0.11/mile decent? I have no idea, but why wouldn't I just get an electric scooter?
A good vehicle can get .08 cents per mile running on gas or diesel. The good thing about this is that it isnt intrusive quiet/small.
Holy shit a thousand bucks? It's cool yea, but it aint that fucking cool.
Yeah and also it's like paying to get obesity.
and also furthermore
how fucking lazy do you need to be.... jesus... I can't be bothered to walk in and get my coffee, here let me roll on in .... o.O
They see me rollin', they hatin'....
Looks like someone liked the comic Snake as a kid.
Jesus. There are knobs, and then there are knobs.
this is why you're fat America.
I would pay to see a fat person try and ride that thing.
I'm game how much?
About $3.50
...plus cost of the wheel thing I destroy and you have yourself a deal.
My only time seeing a Solowheel in public was in Beijing, China, interestingly enough.
I'm pretty sure England beat us at that.
It's a Mobbo, or a damn close knock off
http://mobbo.co/
I thought the Solowheel was the first of the electric wheel? Wouldn't that make Mobbo a knock-off?
Was it ever determined if Mobbo was a re-seller or a new product? And yes, Solo was 2 years or so earlier.
Interesting that their video never shows anyone 1. stopping, 2. starting, 3. turning more than a few degrees, 4. carrying anything.
Also empty streets and everyone looking at you
