EMBRIO: A Unicycle With A Motor

Unicycles aren’t commonly used unless you fall into a certain demographic. Usually 17-year-old dice-rollers (and we don’t mean gambling.)

Laziness in return for luxury is becoming the norm around the A-List teeny-boppers, and a Hummer night club couldn’t make that any clearer unless then Hummer fell flat on your head (which would also hurt pretty bad).
