9 best monowheels

A monowheel is a compact type of transport that consists of a single wheel with leg supports and an ankle support on the sides to maintain balance and hold the device, a handle may be present in the design. The device is suitable for going to work or for a walk, its compact size allows transportation in the trunk of even a small car. The control is simple: the forward tilt of the body triggers the movement; shifting to the left or right changes the rolling direction of the mobile vehicle.

How to choose a monowheel

1. The maximum speed, which for different models varies in the range of 12-50 km / h;
2. Power reserve determines the capacity of the battery, the value shows the mileage, which can be calculated when driving before recharging;
3. Engine power determines both speed and power reserve, and the preservation of their values ​​as the rider's weight changes. Thus, the monowheel with a weak engine loses speed when the driver’s mass approaches the maximum or when the vehicle is moving on small bumps on the asphalt surface;
4. The wheel diameter should be larger, the higher the rider's weight;
5. The weight of the wheel does matter, it is important to choose it according to one’s strength: from 6 to 30 kg, preferably a handle for easy carrying;
6. Wheel type - single or double effect in part on the stability of the rider.

Top low cost monocolos

In the category of low-cost mono-wheels, devices of decent quality are presented, suitable for beginning riders of different ages.

Ninebot One S2

Rating: 4.8

The first in the ranking of a powerful device for weighty riders Ninebot One S2, capable of withstanding loads up to 120 kg. The 500 W engine accelerates the wheel up to 24 km / h, the battery travels up to 30 km, and full recharge occurs quickly - in just 2 hours. However, the wheel diameter of 14 inches for beginners is not very convenient, because you need to get up on the monowheel to start moving, to catch the balance. For safety, the Ninebot One S2 has neither a handle nor a safety belt, while its own weight is 11.4 kg.

According to the characteristics, the monowheel differs little from its analogs in the category, but its advantage is a recognizable brand that offers interesting accessories to the vehicle, such as interchangeable bumpers that often suffer during the device management development phase. Another problem - the lack of waterproofing, that is, riding through puddles can be costly for the owner to repair. An interesting feature is the possibility of removing the speed limit when changing firmware, but remember - the warranty period after such manipulations ceases to operate.

The average price of Ninebot One S2 is 33,500 rubles.

HOVERBOT S3

Rating: 4.7

The second in the rating is a monowheel with not the best design of the HOVERBOT S3: its body is made of colored plastic, which does not look very good, the supports are narrow and do not harmonize with the design, there are a lot of buttons. I am glad that there is a handle for carrying the monowheel, which weighs 10 kg. If you abstract from the outer shell, the device is not bad: the speed of 18 km / h with a more powerful engine (compared to the leader) is 800 W, the power reserve reaches 25 km when fully charged in just an hour, the manufacturer has provided good moisture protection for the motor. A wheel diameter of 355 mm in combination with speed indicators makes the HOVERBOT S3 a good option for learning to ride on devices of this kind. Moreover, you can buy it for 24 000 rubles.

Ninebot One A1

Rating: 4.6

The mono-wheel Ninebot One A1 is a mono-wheel with a futuristic cosmic design resembling a flying saucer: a white bumper flows into a white wheel with a led-backlight around the perimeter and two legs under the legs. The design is characterized by a weak engine of 400 W, capable of creating acceleration of no more than 24 km / h with a load of up to 120 kg during acceleration. The battery keeps the course only up to 15 km, good, the device can be recharged in just 2 hours. The diameter of the wheels is relatively small - 360 mm, but ideal for novice riders and young fans to ride a mobile vehicle.

The average price of Ninebot One A1 is about 25,000 rubles.

Airwheel Q3 260WH

Rating: 4.5

The monowheel is not quite mono in this case, because the apparatus has a whole pair of wheels, which increases the weight of the device for its stability. The 450 W motor accelerates the unit up to 18 km / h, the battery supports the rider up to 120 kg for 30 km, but it needs to be charged longer than the others previously listed - 3 hours.

The motorwheel of the Airwheel Q3 260WH is protected from water, therefore, puddles and rains are not afraid of it. The control is carried out by body movement, as well as by the application on the smartphone: change the driving speed, without being distracted from the screen or view the surrounding species.

The average price of the Airwheel Q3 260WH is high - about 28,000 rubles.

Ecodrift X5

Rating: 4.5

Like the predecessors, the Ecodrift X5 monowheel accelerates to 18 km / h, the battery holds a charge of up to 18 km and the headboard quickly charges for 2 hours, but its main difference is the smallest weight of 9.9 kg, there is a handle for carrying. The load is standard 120 kg, but the engine is less active with increasing rider weight and the speed with a power reserve gradually decreases.

Ecodrift X5 supports connection to a special application via Bluetooth, from which you can control driving parameters. Wheels with a diameter of 356 mm are suitable for beginner riders of different ages and height. The construction has no special protection, therefore we recommend rolling in dry weather, or at least in the absence of rain. By the way, the plastic of the case, though not scratch-resistant, does not break when falling onto the asphalt, and this is a plus.

The average price of Ecodrift X5 is 29,500 rubles.

The best monowheels in terms of price-quality ratio

In the category of "price-quality" are mono-wheels with impressive characteristics of engine power, speed, power reserve and possible load.The devices can surely be used for commuting to work, for walks over long distances, they are better assembled and are not afraid of water, minor off-road.

KingSong 16S SPORTS 840WH

Rating: 5.0

Mono-wheel KingSong 16S SPORTS 840WH of standard loading 120 kg is suitable only for a rider confident in his abilities, because it accelerates to 35 km / h, this speed requires attention on roads and sidewalks, as well as good balance on a wheel with a diameter of 406 mm. Power reserve is impressive - 80 kilometers on a single charge, which is replenished in 7.5 hours. The mono-wheel is equipped with a powerful engine of 1.2 kW, which shows a good course even when moving uphill with a slope of 30⁰.

KingSong can not be imagined without built-in music speakers - they create a loud, bright accompaniment while driving, the playlist is compiled on a mobile paired device that is connected via Bluetooth. The LED light is bright, but the headlight shines on "4."

The wheel weighs 17 kg - quite a bit for a device with a powerful engine and a capacious battery; for the convenience of movement, the design provides a retractable handle. The motor is protected from overheating, even +60⁰On the street, the devices are not dangerous, the water is also not terrible - deep puddles do not threaten the device. Footrests are opened by pressing the toe, they are covered with sandpaper type anti-slip. The body is made of aluminum and matte plastic, on which scratches are almost imperceptible.

The average price of KingSong 16S SPORTS 840WH is 64,000 rubles.

InMotion V8

Rating: 4.9

The second line of the rating went to the InMotion V8 mono-wheel not for nothing, it is only slightly inferior in performance to its predecessor: it reaches a speed of 30 km / h, travels 50 km and charges only 4 hours. The rider's weight is limited to 120 kg, it is inversely proportional to the driving speed being recruited, but on the whole the 800 W engine behaves adequately even on a road with a slight incline. Wheel diameter 406 mm is considerable, but for a comfortable ride on city roads is ideal. By the way, the weight of the monowheel is only 13.6 kg - an indisputable advantage over the leader of the rating.

Attention is deserved by the design of InMotion V8: it inspires the motifs of Spielberg's films - the futuristic backlight diodes on the sides resemble a flying ship, in the dark the device looks spectacular. But the parking light illuminates the road poorly, judging by the reviews, so it’s better not to ride in the pitch darkness. On the sides of the case, you can attach a soft lining, softening the support for the legs of the legs, especially at the stage of learning to ride.

The monowheel can be controlled from a mobile application, in which you can monitor driving speed, battery status and even the temperature of the controller to prevent it from overheating in hot weather over long distances. The program will detect other users of InMotion, track runs and compete, upload photos.

The average price of InMotion V8 is 53,900 rubles.

HOVERBOT X-6P4

Rating: 4.8

The bronze of the rating went to the practical mono-wheel HOVERBOT X-6P4. It does not differ in outstanding characteristics: it only accelerates to 20 km / hour, travels no further than 30 km, but it charges quickly - in just an hour. A wheel diameter of 16 inches will suit both beginners and lovers of unhurried driving, whose weight does not exceed 120 kg.

It would seem that the characteristics of the HOVERBOT X-6P4 are no different from the parameters of the mono-wheel from the category of budget models. However, unlike inexpensive devices, the design of the Hoverboat is more thoughtful: the motor is protected from overheating, reliably isolated from water, you can ride it in any weather at a temperature of -10 ... +50⁰S. The elongated wing will not allow water from wet asphalt to stain clothes with splashes, and this is also an advantage. The body design is ergonomic and comfortable, the sides do not rub the shins.The monowheel weighs 13 kg and is equipped with a carrying handle.

The average price of HOVERBOT X-6P4 is 34,000 rubles.

The best monocoliles of the primal segment

The most powerful and reliable mono-wheels cost a lot, but also serve for a long time, they have a large power reserve and develop excellent speed. Of course, driving licenses are not necessary for their management, but on the road and sidewalks it is necessary to observe utmost care and caution - a large overclocking can be dangerous for pedestrians and for the rider himself.

KingSong KS18A 1360Wh

Rating: 5.0

The KingSong KS18A 1360Wh monowheel is a real “workhorse”: it can carry riders weighing up to 150 kg at a speed of 40 km / h, while having an energy reserve of 80 km, or even all 120, if the driver's weight is small! All this is possible thanks to the powerful 1200 W engine, which even behaves with dignity and is stable. However, such abilities of the device require sacrifice in the form of a large weight of 22 kg, the benefit is that there is a handle on the case for carrying or rolling the device. Charging the battery lasts 5.5 hours, but it is replaceable, you can buy a second one and charge it one by one, changing the working battery on the road. Wheel diameter 18 inches.

Monowheel KingSong KS18A 1360Wh is interesting not only for standing, but also includes an adaptive saddle that fits into the handle-carrying place. For safety in the dark, there is a backlight on the case, operating in continuous light and blinking mode. The plastic used is an ABS / PC composite, resistant to scratches and cracks, it looks presentable and will not reveal the age of the device even after several seasons of operation. The device has built-in speakers that connect to the smartphone via Bluetooth.

The average price is 80,000 rubles.
