    Does it have a hand brake on just one wheel for cool spin outs/tooth removal?

    I'm certainly not an engineer..so how do you counter the rotational inertia when its time to stop on one of those one wheel contraptions ?

    Most likely it's the same design as a Segway. Lean back it slows...lean forward it speeds up.

    How many loops will the rider do in a panic stop?

    Exactly. And highly unbalanced loops.

    They stop pretty easy, basically like a Segway or those 2-wheel hover board things that were popular. The electric drive is very responsive.

    I rode one at RRR (I'm sure the same one someone saw at Tally). It is sweet not gonna lie, and can go pretty quick considering what it is. The price about blew me away but otherwise they're pretty cool. I'm sure you could hold on to a tire cart while scooting around.

    It's called a Blart-way for officers not clever enough to operate a Segway safely. :D

    Sounds like they sell quite a few.

    Looked like it needed a better steering damper

    Was this where Rossi got the idea for the leg dangle?

    I pride myself on having always been able to tell peer pressure to go EAD.

    Unfortunately, thanks to Ted f@#$ing Cobb, I now own a OneWheel. I'm hooked, these things are bad ass. :D:cool:
