High car prices have pushed people towards to the micromobility sector, where much smaller vehicles offer greater flexibility for a fraction of the cost.

interesting, yeah having to lug it around inside is a big turnoff for me. is there a good way to lock them up and leave them somewhere? that’s sort of an open question.
there are definitely large communities for one wheel enthusiasts. i think they’re often less about tinkering and more about meeting up and riding together. from what I’ve seen they are largely organized through message groups and discord.
from what I’ve seen, my friend doing the open source one wheel isn’t alone in his efforts, but the group around it isn’t nearly as big as the cousin euc guys. i think he’s like 90% to “completion”, though I’m sure he’ll never stop tinkering.
another big appeal for me is their use as filmmaking tools. I’m a videographer, these go great with a gimbal. i wonder if an euc would be similarly useful.
