The Uno
15hp
fully electric
no throttle/brakes

Some brakes, more power, remove that douchey looking thing on the seat, and I’d drive it.

thats pretty sweet. I just dont get the NO throttle idea. leaning backwards to stop seems like a dangerous thing in traffic. but it must be required in the gyroscope controls to keep you from toppling over.

id like to see it in action, it doesnt pass by me yet.

i agree. the idea of leaning forward and backward to stop on a major road might end in death.

More bravery = more faster

So it is a segway with a bodykit?

How do you turn? Good luck braking quickly…

and what’s with that crazy squid not wearing a helmet and leathers!!!

The fact that they found the biggest doucebag in the area to ride that thing for pics already makes me hate it.

Looks like one of those springy things at kids playgrounds.

yes.

OMG he’s such a douche bag and he’s not wearing full leathers and a helmet and looking at the camera. he’s a squid. is he ok? :mamoru:

^^He does have huge chick sunglasses and 2-sizes-too-tight clothing…

Maybe his cool is just too much for our untrained perceptions.

EDIT: “Ben J. Poss Gulak,” WTF is with that name? He has two middle names? Two last surnames?
