MODERATORS
The onewheel is inferior amerikrakkker technology the EUC is superior Chinese technology.
The onewheel has a weak little motor because they built it to comply with state of California ebike motor capacity rules for some reason, which means that it's totally possible to just outlean what the motor can put out at which point it will drop you directly on your collarbone.
My EUC has a much stronger motor, an emergency power reserve and software to keep me off the ground no matter how hard I lean.
Also it has an easy handle that pops up from the top so I can wheel it along beside me, making this guy's doodad totally unnecessary.
