Are you a fan of the Segway? Well that is no longer necessary! This is all thanks to the new EniCycle created by Aleksander Polutnik. This machine is able to balance just like a Segway, only without the other wheel. Using an internal gyroscope that cycles around 100 times per second, the machine, and whoever is on top of it, is kept perfectly balanced. Lean forward and you go faster, lean back and you get the opposite. How the hell do you turn? Simple, just fall over. Everything operates off of an electrical motor that is built onto the cycle. All the cool technologies of a Segway, only now you don't have to stand!
