Ryno
I haven't noticed any posts here on this vehicle. I saw in Popular Science that it will do 25 MPH, has a 30 mile range, and charges in 1.5 hours.

Doesn't look like it's in production yet, so all that remains to be seen. Also, from what I've seen, it requires a significant degree of skill to ride.

Wow that looks absolutely fabulous. Between Segways, the uno and now this, our EV transportation options just got a whole lot better. 30 mile range, 25 MPH top speed, road legal from the off (probably), small footprint, cool looking fat tyre. Cheaper than a Segway, redundant systems, a seat but not sure about parking.

I bet our wonderful DfT would find something with which to ban it

So far, I don't see any videos showing evasive maneuvering, emergency stops, etc. Everything I've seen show it driving very carefully...
(and they need to stop referring to it as a "bike", for all the obvious reasons) Last edited by PeteInLongBeach; 01-16-2011 at 04:42 PM.. |

It seems fairly manoeuvrable. But I would also like to see more videos, more tests, especially braking like you say. Something like the test videos demonstrated for the YikeBike.

I think there might have been a link here awhile back about the Ryno, because I saw this YouTube video from an electric vehicle convention. Course it may have not been mentioned on here, don't remember for sure, but this video isn't listed with the other Ryno videos. Search "Walking with Ryno" on YouTube and it should come up.

Oh according to another video link at the last one, it's to be sold for under $4 grand and they are going after the police response market. Search YouTube "Ryno Motors - One Wheeled Electric Scooter" by wide angle studios

Here is a link to the You Tube videos...
http://www.youtube.com/user/rynomotors1 I didn't read all the stuff from the link in the original post but glanced through it and didn't see any pricing information... Where did you find that? I think it looks neat but will probably never go anywhere commercially... Just my opinion. |
