The Enicycle: One wheel, a motor, and balance assistance

By Rain Noe - August 20, 2009

This is so fresh: Slovenian inventor Aleksander Polutnik's motorized Enicycle is one wheel of fun, with gyroscopic stabilization-assistance helping to keep it upright. Watch as The Gadget Show's unicycle-challenged Ortis Deley learns to ride one in just under five minutes.

Polutnik originally built the thing for fun and to ride alongside his unicycle-riding girlfriend, but the popularity of the device has prompted him to seek mass manufacturing. via product design & development

I’m a lapsed industrial designer. I was born in NYC and figured I’d die there, but a few years ago I abandoned New York to live on a farm in the countryside with my wife. We have six dogs.
