How to measure and track the tire pressure of electric unicycles
Posted by Tom Lee on
The measuring is done through the use of a manometer. A quality manometer is the only guarantee for a precise pressure measurement. Cheap manometers and pumps with such a meter are usually imprecise. Pay attention to the valve access as well. Some electric unicycles, such as the Ninebot, have a proprietary valve, which is small and can present a problem when trying to use a manometer without the necessary attachment. I recommend that you do a comparative test before you trust your manometer completely. Take a measurement and then check it with another one at your closest tire shop. Pay attention...
Why electric unicycle is better than other types of transport?
Posted by Tom Lee on
Everyone who uses public or private vehicles in a metropolis, has probably thought about changing transport to something more compact and modern. Technological electric transport, among which the first lines of popularity are held by electric unicycle will save you from ubiquitous traffic jams and restrictions . WHAT ARE THE ADVANTAGES OF THE ELECTRIC UNICYCLE ? Unicycle is a self-balancing scooter with one single wheel and footrests on the sides. Such a simple and, at the same time, ingenious design offers many advantages over other personal electric transport and, especially, motorbike and other aggregates with an internal combustion engine:...
How Difficult Is It To Ride An Electric Unicycle?
Posted by Tom Lee on
No matter how much time has passed and how almost common the new rideables have become on the streets of big cities, for most of us, hearing the word “unicycle” naturally takes us to a circus arena. Somehow, the guy riding it should still be juggling oranges to the applause of an excited audience instead of calmly riding through the crowd with a laptop bag. As our reality is changing, it is high time to let go of these ideas of the past and accept the new contraptions for what they are – just one more way to get to...

What Components of an Electric Unicycle are the Heaviest?
Posted by Tom Lee on
One fairly common misconception about Electric Unicycles is that they weigh what they do because of the weight of the battery pack. In a top-of-the-line Electric Wheel, like a King Song with a 840Wh battery, it’s true that the batteries are not exactly light; however at most, they represent at around 20% of the Wheel’s weight. With most Wheels, the motor constitutes around 50% (or more) of the total weight. This is because the components that make an electric motor work are intrinsically heavy: there are the permanent magnets on the rotor (the part that spins), a lot of heavy copper, steal cores...
