This is a special kind of magic to make an One wheeled electric motorcycle not terrifying to ride, and Ryno Motors has pulled it off. The motorcycle, which has a single 25 inches tire and reaches speeds up to
10 mph, uses a combination of gyroscope sensors and accelerator meters to balance
itself. That, combined with a strategic weight distribution and an intuitive
acceleration and braking method, makes this motorized unicycle from the future
actually feel safe.
It also
takes about six hours to charge up fully using a 12-volt DC charger. That gives
it a range of about 10 miles or an hour per charge at top speed.
The entire vehicle weighs 160 pounds, with the
wheel-and-motor portion accounting for most of that (140 pounds). That makes it
feel extremely bottom-heavy and rooted to the ground. It also makes it easier
to pick up. The lightweight seat and frame, which are made from a combination
of CNC tube benders and 3D-printed parts, rocks back and forth on the wheelbase
and absorbs shock.
