How to choose a unicycle 2021: rating of the best and fastest, review - Setafi

Recently, electric transport has flooded the cities. This is justified by the low cost of use and the small budget of the devices. Particularly stand out against the background of the rest of the new unicycles of 2021. The device is an electric unicycle, on the sides of which there are steps for riding. Equilibrium is maintained by built-in gyroscopes. The device is small in size and suitable for our roads: from new asphalt to hackneyed primer. In this article, we have compiled for you a rating of the best unicycles according to users for 2021.

What to look for when choosing a unicycle?

We consider only a few characteristics to be the most important. Without their correct analysis, you will get something that is not the best unicycle:

1. Speed
2. Battery capacity
3. Weight
4. Transmission diameter

Speed

All unicycles can be divided with respect to maximum and running speed:

- slow, about 13 km / h on average. More expensive models can give out more than 15 km at maximum;

- medium, for which the optimal indicator is 16-20 km / h. The maximum starts from 20 km / h;

- fast, which, during acceleration, can show 30 or more km on the speedometer.

Battery power

It depends on how much your transport will travel through the settlement. Manufacturers produce models from 99 Wh to 1000 Wh. The price of the wheel and its weight also depend on the strength. For beginners or those who are afraid to buy a "pig in a poke", the recommended power is from 240 Wh to 340 Wh. Such a wheel is not very heavy and will give out about 20 km / h on asphalt.

Device weight

The bulk of the weight is the battery. The average weight of the battery alone is 10-12 kg. The less the drive weighs, the more maneuverable and faster your unicycle will be.

Chassis diameter

Wheels come in different sizes: from 5 to 18-20 inches. Large ones are characterized by high speed, but low maneuverability. Light options are well controlled, but you won’t ride much on the primer. Take something in between - 14-16 inch wheels will be plenty. It is also worth choosing a device according to the weight of your body, because it may simply not withstand the driver:

- for a weight of less than 60 kg, a 14-inch wheel is suitable;

- up to 100 kg - 16 inches;

- from 100 and above - 16-18 inches and more.

So, for an average device, the optimal ones will be: a 16-inch wheel, a speed of 30 km / h and a weight within 20 kg. The rest depends on the individual needs of the buyer.
