This would be great if they used a planetary gearbox in the hub offering several ratios and that new Solo Harley seat

I saw that and instantly thought engine in hub
ie. electric engine. Just like the cars are moving to.
Motorcycles could really benefit from that technology,
I think.

yes – i like this – i ride a pedal bike (when i have been drinking and need to collect my car) and this would fit in the boot (trunk) nicely. Not sure how it would handle with my hangover though.

Interesting idea. It looks like the cranks are short in length because of the location of the foot at 270+ degrees of rotation. Never thought of that similar problem a unicycle faces until seeing the above picture

Same size tall skinny tires front and rear? check,
Really uncomfortable looking seat? check,
No effective suspension? check,
Uncomfortable riding position? check
Triumph of form over any real world function? check

stick a little engine on it and it will be a strong contender for next years AMD world championship.

A unicycle with a forward wheelie bar!
