Unicycles aren’t commonly used unless you fall into a certain demographic. Usually 17-year-old dice-rollers (and we don’t mean gambling.) The EMBRIO Advanced Concept takes the unicycle to the year 2025, when even one-wheeled transportation can be sexy.
EMBRIO uses sensors and gyroscopes to balance up to two passengers on a large single wheel, using the two smaller “landing gear” wheels to balance the bike at higher speeds.

“up to two passengers” ? ? ? LOL
Where does the other person sit on your shoulders?
Is that dice thing about dice-living? Because I’m almost 17 and I ride a unicycle and enjoy the occasional throw of the die and I just stumbled upon this. Pretty weird, huh?
