The Solowheel is pretty straightforward. It's basically just a 20 pound wheel that is powered by a 1,000-watt Lithium-ion battery — good for up to two hours on a single charge. Using its hidden gyroscopes, riders can accelerate by leaning forward and slow down by leaning backwards.

Just like a Segway, the Solowheel isn't cheap. A single-wheeled transport costs about $1,500.

  • @DudleyaSetchellii You simply pick it up and carry it with you, plus it is weather proof. It only weighs 26 lbs, so its very mobile. Follow us @inventistinc for up to date information.

  • When it rains? What happens when the battery dies?

  • @music2012 You bad boy! :D
