First of all, it looks like the SBU riders will have to let go their fear and try to get used to the self-balancing technology. According to the inventors of this amazing unicycle, this process only takes 20-30 minutes to learn the way of the bike and then everything becomes natural as walking itself.

The SBU will also learn the way riders use it and will help them ride, being able to add an even more natural feel with maneuvers such as Turn Assist, Push back, Smart Sense and so on. These features are quite helpful as the SBU has no handlebars or steering wheel and no throttle, the body positioning being the only way to control and steer it.

Made from 6061 billet aluminium, the SBU can carry riders up to 145 kg (325 lbs). It can do almost 25 km/h (15.5 mph) and a single charge can last for 12 to 16 km (7-10 miles), depending on the riding style. The SBU will go up slopes up to 30% and comes with regenerative brakes which restore energy to the 53V 2.5AH 122Wh battery pack.

With a 3-axis gyro and similar accelerometer, and 1,000 calculations a second the SBU V3 also sports a lock mode and LED alert system. The international charger is supplied with the 12.2 kg (27 lbs) unicycle and included in the $2,070 (€1,960) price. Noob wheels available at EddyLine, the inventors of the SBU V3.
