   This is cool. I have always removed the pedals and let my kids learn by gliding down hill. This low tech method works well enough, but this gyro looks even better. As long as it is not too expensive.

   My question is this. Could this be of use on a unicycle? Learning to ride a bike is easy, but a unicycle is hard. I’ve love to learn but don’t have the youth to put up with falls. If this could be a big help with a unicycle, then I see this having even more value.

   I could see many people who ride a bike ride a unicycle instead. A unicycle is much lighter and smaller. It is just that they have a harder learning curve. Something like this maybe could help lower that learning curve.

    [...] Being the fine physical specimens that we are, even from an early age, we of course had little trouble learning how to ride a bike without external help, but we’re sure **some hapless child out there will welcome the Gyrowheel as salvation from the embarrassment of training wheels. The 12-inch wheel (a 16-inch version is in the works) replaces a standard front tire and has an adjustable-speed spinning disc inside, powered by a rechargeable battery. The idea is that you get the kid started on a high stability setting, and step them down until they’re not using the gyro at all. It goes on sale this December and should retail for around $100. Video of it in action is after the break. [Via Bike Commuters] [...]

    This is really good but are we going a little to far to make our children getting habitual to this much technology??
    place a motor in it and why make them learn bike if they are going to drive amazing cars in future??

    I’m an adult that never learned to ride; last time I tried I was a 13yr old that got laughed at my some pretty girls I desired. No attempt since. So, ah…where and when can I buy one of these for a 19″?

    Damn, gotta wait.

    From “thegyrobik” site:

    As for adult-sized Gyrowheels, we are in the process of developing it. We are also working on partnering with a bike manufacturer to have a full Gyrobike for sale in stores, but again, we’ll let the wonderful folks on our email list know all the details.

    Very interesting bike. But where is the fun when you fall and scratch your knees?

    Please let me know when and where I can purchase a 16inch gyro wheel in the UK for my balance-challenged deaf son. We are struggling with a normal bike and are fast outgrowing kids’ stabilisers……
    Please help! Thank you.
