Electric eniCycle: the Segway for geeky circus clowns

Ever since the dramatic debut of the Segway years ago, inventors have been emboldened to step up with their own transport innovations, the latest of which is called the eniCycle. Created by Slovenian inventor Aleksander Polutnik, the unicycle-like vehicle is powered by an electric motor and features a self-balancing gyroscope system, allowing even those of us not trained at the circus to easily ride the contraption.
