12mph does sound like a good top speed. You don't need to go that fast but you can if you want to feel the rush of speed.

The Minipro just feels like it is at a quick jog to me at the speeds I am going (not maxed). Cruising while enjoying the sights. It doesn't feel like I would fall down if it suddenly caught something and stopped. I remember my skateboard days and what if felt like if a rock jammed the wheel enough that you launched. Oooone giant step with lots of flailing arms.

It is interesting that the models are coming fast and furious. You would think that they would sit on their butts longer since they now own the patent. The kids version seems cool. I bet a lot of parents wind up trying it.
