OK, it's not Grassroots, or at least I don't know many people on here that could build it in their garage, but it's kinda cool.

It's definitely versatile and easy to store. But it would take a long time to go from point A to point B. It wouldn't be the driving time, it would be the talking time.

that is pretty cool.. and a lot less geeky looking than a segue

Pretty sure there are laws in some places that require at least 2 wheels, but cool otherwise.

I like it, but I can't help but wonder what happens when you hit the brakes really hard. Then there would be the chaos if the thing ever got truly popular. Imagine any big city with around a hundred or more of these things.

Was wondering what wheels you guys were talking about... I was kinda distracted...

it would probably react better than a segue.. at least you have a bar in front of the wheel and something between you and the ground than a flimsy handlebar

You forget it has a stabilization system to keep it from pitching forward.
