“Uno: a Unicycle-Motorbike-Segway Hybrid”

When I first saw the pictures, I figured — if they’re going to be inspired by the Segway, why not have two wheels next to one another for better stability, rather than only one? Turns out it does have two wheels, which sounds like a very cool geeky toy.

But it’s one thing to trust your walking stance to gyroscopes on a Segway, and another at 200kph on an open road. Not to mention that the electronics might act against the driver’s instinctive reactions to emergency situations.
