Incline-Scaling Electric Unicycle

This Unicycle's Motor Lets It Climb 45-Degree Inclines With Ease

— September 4, 2023 — Eco
InMotion, a Chinese electric mobility company that specializes in innovative products such as electric unicycles and scooters, has unveiled the 'Adventure' unicycle, a single-wheeler that offers a surprisingly high-performance motor as well as added amenities such as the ability to tune one's suspension.

The 'Adventure' electric unicycle is equipped with an off-road motor that is claimed to be able to touch 9,000 watts, a degree of power that means that riders can go about scaling inclines of 45 degrees without breaking much sweat, due to the fact that their single wheel is capable of enjoying up to 147.5 pounds-feet of torque.

On flat ground, this electric unicycle can attain speeds of 110 km/h and zoom from zero to 50 km/h in only 2.5 seconds. With battery-saving 'Comfort' and proactive 'Sport' modes available and manipulable through a smartphone app, it's apparent that the 'Adventure' is looking to redefine the possibilities of unicycle performance.
