    Nice video. Hoverboard is for fun while unicycle can serve as actual means of transportation

    very nice video! just some additions. you use a quite old unicycle, maxspeed of modern wheels are 12.5 to 19 mph. many wheels have now bigger batteries too, so a mileage of 30+miles is not uncommon, even 50+ is possible with bigger 18 inch wheels, which are nice for offroad biketracks. and one point you forgot (or i missed): electric unicycles get more stable the faster you go, with hoverboards its the other way round. but nicely done comparisson, thx

      +HowToLou nice, thats the time to put on a helmet, wristguards and good heavy duty protection. like with motorcycles, never without protection ;) and respect the beeps as most of them dont have pedal tiltback. im getting a kingsong 16 for my city rides and maybe later this year the new 18" gotway with an offroad tire... got some nice hilly montainbike roads near me :)

    • @HowToLou
      @HowToLou  Před 8 lety +3

      +muhkuh0816 - Totally agree. At 8 mph, you don't need too much protection, but when you start getting faster than the human body can run, you can get into serious trouble. My Airwheel has been a great first wheel and its speed limit has kept me from injuring myself. When it finally wears out, I will go for more power and off road tire.

    maybe you could compare to a double-wheeled Airwheel for example?

    • @HowToLou
      @HowToLou  Před 2 lety +1

      I have ridden a double wheel Airwheel. They are far easier to learn to ride than the single wheel, but are much heavier, so you can’t hop up curbs. The double wheel looks like an electric unicycle, but acts more like a hoverboard. People who want the electric unicycle, typically want the extra maneuverability, so there are very few double wheeled unicycles on the market.

    would the unicycle improve balance more,looking for something to help my dirt bike skills as I cant get ride my bike enough due to my work

    • @HowToLou
      @HowToLou  Před 7 lety

      +tubeyou123863 - yes it definitely improves your balance, but it doesn't feel anything like motorcycle. I think you would gain more transferable skills with a BMX bike. Take it to parks and bike trails.

      +khalid yousif - You can get an AirWheel for around $300 on Amazon. IPS is another good brand. The general name for them is Electric Unicycle

      I am still riding this same Airwheel EUC. I need to replace the battery here soon, like this:

    • @Rocksaplenty
      @Rocksaplenty Před 3 lety

      @@HowToLou I'm so glad to hear! I haven't heard of a TG before. I 100 percent recommend getting a Gotway Mcm5 (like 500 used) acmv2 (the blue one only) or a used msuper 84v! If you are better financed than me they're dropping some absolutely crazy wheels like the RS, EX and Monster Pro that are astonishing. If I had to pick just one for a 900 dollar budget? 84v msx. It's an incredible wheel. Add clark pads and you can catch serious air. I'd say get an RS if you're well off, but a used msx is an awesome choice.

    Unicicle looks cool but what if someone cross your way suddenly(dog,kid etc.) - you can not stop? Like in town - is it safe for others go near?

    • @Fenster134
      @Fenster134 Před 6 lety +1

      Mc Mc That's no problem, I drive with my Kingsong KS14 to work every day and can stop very quickly. But anticipatory driving is important because you cannot stop completeley (drive 2 km/h is possible with skill). it's good enough for right for left situations (if the other driver does not stop too because he is so fascinated from your vehicle 😅)

    • @HowToLou
      @HowToLou  Před 7 lety

      +mokokawi - yeah it takes much more practice to be stable on an electric unicycle. Yes, Ninebot has more power. Gotway M-Super is the most powerful and best for off-road. It will even go up steps.
