- Onewheel or electric unicycle, what best urban elctric vehicle to choose ? Onewheel devices 100% are leaders in urban personal electric vehicle industry. Electric unicycle is lightweight, portable and very fast. You can easily take it on the subway or bus, as well as take euc down the stairs. But if you do not want to use city transport for moving, the electric unicycle has an excellent power reserve and can travel on a single charge from 30 to 150 km, depending on the model. You can often get to a certain point in the city faster than by car or public transport. Onewheel or a electric unicycle is not of primary importance. But the urban personal transport of the future is definitely behind the electric devices and EUCs.

Onewheel or EUC let the Holy War begin !!!
Heads up my Onewheel is for sale. I need new pedals for my EUC as fifty mile rides hurt my feet and since I have 40% battery left after that 50 Miles I need new shoes too.
Honestly, EUCs are infinitely more versatile than pretty much any other PEV. How many PEVs can you take from pavement to forest paths or grass with speed? Or even riding on winter?!!? An off-road scooter might come close, but you'll get a better range with the same money as an EUC. Not to mention those scooters weigh ass-ton and aren't nearly as manoeuvrable.
And there's also one MAJOR pro EUCs have for commuting against these "sk8r stance" PEVs: No blind spots. Skating stance = Blind spot on your backside. That's major traffic hazard.
Only the real reasons EUCs aren't super mainstream is that they're pretty spooky. Not only is the learning curve quite intimidating, but the whole idea of "one-wheeled segway without the steering handle" sounds dangerous as heck.
You are damn right :)
You know what's more dangerous. A dangerous women.
Bro your comment is fair and much more helpful than any video in youtube
I just got into PEVs and only have tried Onewheels and scooters. I think all of your points are very valid and I definitely want to try an EUC next.
Onewheel is something you take to go show off at the skateboard park. EUC is something you take to travel places.
Can not agree, you can use Onewheel for travel purposes, but for sure it has less possibilities
Well, I have the Veteran Sherman, I am all about speed and range.
Yes, no doubt Sherman is the king
EUC hands down beats OW but what most EUC users are forgetting is that, most OW owners are not using it for daily commute but as a recreational device. Also third party company is doing a great job bringing the experience to the users such as float fest, where a lot of OW users converge for the week and just ride together. Just my personal opinion.
I am using OW for daily commute, but the truth is that you can do that only if the distance is not long (up to 10-15km max.)
I think that it would make sense compare same price cattegories in that case would end up result probably more on the EUC end. Problem of One Wheel is that there is not so many options like in case of EUC. You can buy nimble EUCs, fast EUCs, torque EUCs, small battery, large battery, suspension, whatever you desire (if you have money for that :)). In case of One Weel is there basically just R+ or Pint so range/speed is simply enough for you, or you have to look for different device where is more diversity and options. I formerly wanted One Wheel and found EUCs through channels which are covering both, at the beggining I considered EUC as toy (like hoverboards) but when I have seen what these things can do I knew I need one - btw Veteran Sherman owner here and I love that thing.
Oh and one more comment, Unicycle seems to have more natural way of standing on it. I am skiing and snowboarding and with more years I found that snowboarding posture is just tougher for my back and hips and it can hurt after some time. On EUC you have very natural "straight standing" posture, so maybe one thing to consider as well :) but I understand that this is not valid for everyone.
Thank you for your comment. The main topic was best commuter electric device. So main specifications were weight and acceptable range. For sure EUC has much more options but it is not for everyone the same as Onewheel is also not for everyone
Good video and review. I have both the OW Pint and the Inmotion V8F. I really like both for different reasons. I absolutely love the Pint for fun and excercise but I would not wish to commute on it. I like the V8F for trips to the store or I could see it being very comfortable for commuting, the form factor, especially the trolley handle, makes the transition from being a rider to being a pedestrian almost seemless.
Yes exactly, thank you for comment :)
Do you just take it to the store with the trolley handle or lock in the bike racks?
@@jesustyronechrist2330 I just roll it in with me using the trolley handle, no one has complained yet.
I was about to pull the trigger on a onewheel, until I realized you can get twice the performance on a euc for the same price, now I’m looking at a euc but is the learning curve as hard as people make it out to be? My biggest thing would be side to side balance
If you look at mileage that people are doing at such type of devices (thousands miles per year) learning curve for 1-2 hours on EUC is nothing. It is much more easy that learn to ride roller skate or snowboard. Regarding comparison EUC vs Onewheel it is not about performance but about feelings and flow if you will have change to test or rent both devices it will be the best option
@@ekolkacz but it is about performance when one wheel charges that much for a xr, it’s like a slap in the face, until they step up their game and make a better one that justifies that price then maybe it will be worth it, at this point it’s an overpriced toy
@@truek1ng7 Agreed. Onewheel pricing structure is trash and price to value ratio is horrible. They really need to update their pricing structure and the onewheel models themselves to be competitive in the market.
Below 1500$, AT wheel electric skateboard beats both, weight, speed, range. Average 11kg/45kmh/30-40km range. Above 1500$ those high power EUCs are incomparable.
Unfortunately esk8te is useless in city conditions, even with AT wheels, too bulky and impossible to ride in crowded areas
At what terrain again? I think it's fair to say electric skateboard below a certain price is the most valuable in terms of performance, if we are talking mostly flat and unobstructed riding that is.
My Begode Tesla T3 is small and portable, not crazy heavy nad cheap. But the speed and range is from another universe :D.
Great review. Your English is very good
Thank you ☺️
With less money you get more range and a bigger wheel with the EUC, you didn't made a proper driving security comparison, take a road whole with both devices and see the difference.
Классная картинка и ракурсы!
Спасибо :)
@@ekolkacz Было бы круто если бы ещё озвучку делали на русском
Если будем выходить на рынок СНГ то обязательно :)
Honestly, kind of a terrible EUC choice for comparison, budget determines what you're gonna buy. I ride a gen 2 mSuper v3 from 2016, Onewheel newest XL product is STILL BEHIND it in specs after 5+ years. Ride style is great, and to each their own fun wise, but who are you kidding when it comes to an actual commute. The reason I can't justify purchasing a Onewheel is because my EUC costs me as much as the basic pint, and that thing is a glorified a hoverboard. Look I get it, its not all about specs, but ignoring how woefully out classed they are only contributes to the lackluster improvements you guys get every year. You should demand more for the prices they're asking. I know this was 2021, but that's v12 price, or a s18, or even a gotway RS. Those blow my old girl out of the water. I've been waiting for something like the s20 to make an upgrade.
We compare personal lightweight urban devices with similar specs. It has no sense to compare it due to price, this is different class of devices and feeling and joy from them is not the same :)
Comprehensive and Clear. I subscribed.
But how can the battery score be only one point difference when one device has almost 3 TIMES more???
Agree :)
Чего сравнивать аппараты из разных классов.
Моноколесо - ТОП.
Оневил - для фана и покатушек. Может быть модно как транспорт на мизерные расстояния использовать. Вобщем старший брат гироскутера.
Для России только колесо подойдет.
Оно проверено зимой. Ездит нормально.
Можно зимнюю моторезину ставить.
А вот на этом слике с низким клиренсом - далеко не уедешь.
Каждый день 40км проезжаю на OW, да ощущения другие, но гироскутер тут вообще не при чем
@@ekolkacz как замена скейту, как переходный вид транспорта от скейта к колесу - вполне возможно.
Но колесо, это совершенно другой уровень по всем направлениям.
Там и пространства для модернизации несравненно больше, и прыгать через препятствия на нем гораздо проще и свесы у него просто минимальные - заедет почти на вертикальную стену (народ в скейтпарках по рампам катает).
ОW далеко до возможностей моноколеса и его эргономики.
Возможности колеса ограничены только самим райдером.
This is actually really misleading in my opinion
Why not step it up a little and go up in price range?
For example, I bought my USED Kingsong 18xl for 800 bucks. Top speed 32mph/50kph. Mileage: 30-40miles depending on weight and riding style
I don't think I need to bring up the equally priced onewheel. They don't exist. They are extremely overpriced machines that over very little bang for the buck.
NOTE I am talking about city riding and cruising. If you got your own thing that you need a onewheel for, do your thing. But we can't say that the devices are comparable when it comes to bang for the buck
Mten3 vs Onewheel ... price,faster,brake,performance,portability... No real comparsión, sorry ,no like
Thanks
Not even close. OW overpriced with lesser performance and maximise the worth of money pay for it.
Something to keep in mind... KingSong 14D is from 2016 and Onewheel Pint is from 2019. As you know a lot has happened in the EUC world. Good comparison using Android vs Apple. Two different feelings and styles. Apple is more price but they are constantly evolving. Future Motion have a innovative product but is not evolving there Onewheels. The are only afloat because of there community and the third party products. I own both a Onewheel+ and a KS14D including several other EUC's and I dont agree with your evaluation. I wish you could have chosen a better comparison. Gotway/Begode, KingSong and InMotion have all newer "smaller" wheels/modells that all outperform Onewheels in every way. Onewheels are fun but they need to keep up if they want to be relevant and comparable to EUC's. There community, especially outside of the USA is increasingly switching to EUC's. Great channel and cinematography!
Hello thank you for comment. The task was to compare two riding styles sideways and streigh position. It was not comparison between KingSong / GotWay / Inmotion and Onewheel.
Now compare an EUC that costs the same as the Onewheel.
The EUC will eat the Onewheel for breakfast.
My EUC goes over 70kmph and has a range of over 100km and it's STILL cheaper than a Onewheel.
Yes but not every body need 27-35kg electric device, you compare only speed and range but if we choose crowed city street or a lot of stairs you will be deadly tired in 20 minutes
@@ekolkacz I live in a crowded city and I commute 40 kms a day on my EUC. I don't get tired at all and I don't ever have range anxiety. I can go on 4 hour group rides and still have 30 percent battery left when I get home.
None of this would be possible on a Onewheel. If I can't commute on it it's a toy and not a fully realised vehicle imo.
@@Simonisms I generally agree that EUC is more for you money and gives you more battery, range, speed, etc. On other I can fully understand why people buy smaller and more practical wheels. I own Veteran Sherman and when I have seen how easily were guys walking up stairs with that Kingsong wheel I was like "man I have hard time put that thing into car". So different wheels, different scenarios to use, that was also main point of my comment above, One Wheel have literally Pint or R+ and thats it, it is what you are looking for, or you have to get different device. On other hand in EUC world there is wast diversity of good wheels for different purposes, for example for yours :)
Is it? Which EUC is this.
