Never tried one before, are they any trickier to learn to ride than an analogue unicycle?

[–] corm@lemmy.world 3 points 9 months ago

I've never ridden an analog one but I've heard people say that the electric ones are easier

It took me about 3 hours to ride it and about a month to ride it decently

Thinking of getting one but not sure when I would use it

[–] corm@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I use mine daily. I'd recommend the Nosfet Aero as a first EUC.

I usually ride mine twice a day, once to go get some groceries from walmart and once to some trails that I hike nearby.

It's a bike that you don't have to chain up

Yeah but I'd rather physically exert myself. I would only us euc if I want to get somewhere without physically exerting myself and I don't see that too often

Sure get a bike, I like my bike too, it's a different tool.

My EUC goes hiking with me, I trolley it while I hike, I got back from that a bit ago.

I don't like the trip between my house and the trail, and the EUC makes that part fun.

Anyway sounds like it's not for you, although I wonder if you also have a car and use it for trips under 5 miles ;)
