A unique, one-wheeled scooter is going into production soon.

Motorized scooters serve as an easily maneuverable vehicle. Tight parking spots…not a problem and traffic jams are easy to get around.

So imagine the ease of a one-wheeled electric scooter. The company RYNO is introducing a one wheeled vehicle that is a cross between a motorcycle and a scooter. Production on these innovative bikes is slated to begin in January of 2013.

There is a wide wheel. The seat and handlebars reside directly over the wheel.

The designers state “To satisfy the need for efficient transportation, RYNO Motors has designed a multiple use, self-balancing, one wheel, electric scooter that’s adaptable to wide range of uses including urban individuals, government, and industrial customers.”

The RYNO can reach speeds of 12.5 miles per hour while driving through the city, but off-road it can cruise up to 25 miles per hour. Given its compact size, the vehicle can easily be driven right onto an elevator or train as well.

What do you think of the RYNO?
