This is engineering at its best. Amazing concept!

very cool! Being battery powered etc, I wonder what its range and power is.
It would be really weird to get used to having no front, you would assume it would be hard to balance. He's done a great job on it. Be very good in highly populated dense areas.

At least its got enough power to do a mono!!!!!

what happens if you have to stop quickly?

Cool concept.

It's definitely an engineering feat, seeing as he's made a whole auto-balance feature etc etc.

But what's the difference between this and a Segway. To me they look equally ridiculous (the 1 wheeled motorcycle possibly even more so) and they look like they go about the same speed (which isn't exactly fast by any standard).

I'd rather walk
