Here's the non-fullscreen link. Looks like a sit-down Segway unicyle. They're making a lot of the same hype/claims that Segway did.

Wandered off somewhere...

They are battery powered and don't seem to go very far w/o recharging. Also pretty slow. Also big bucks for what it is...

looks pretty cool.
If there was some way to add a rear wheel to that, and maybe a small gas powered engine, for additional stability, cornering and speed, they'd really be onto something. |

yeah, that'd be even better.
You could even connect that front wheel to the handlebars with some sort of tubes, so that it could steer it. |

Cool ideas but I'm trying to understand why you'd actually want one?

Also... When I see stuff like this it reminds me of just how good a bicycle is.
