For me I’ve been riding my new mten5 around a lot. It gets about 20 miles of range and will happily cruise at 20mph (max is somewhere over 30).
I also have an ebike, escooter, and 3 other electric unicycles (EUCs) but this little ripper has been my favorite this week.
how are these things safe?
I haven’t heard of anyone crashing due to hardware failure on any EUCs in the past year, so they’ve gotten pretty reliable.
Personally after a couple thousand miles I’ve never had a crash that wasn’t caused by me running into something stupidly, and I’ve never had an injury. Just wear kneepads/helmet/wristguards and you’ll be fine.
