Wesley, a Tesla employee, has created a remarkable Tesla-inspired electric unicycle called the Cyberwheel. This innovative creation was inspired by the Tesla Cybertruck and demonstrates an impressive blend of functionality and design. Wesley’s journey to build the Cyberwheel began when he was captivated by the idea of creating a custom electric unicycle, and his determination led to the creation of this unique PEV (Personal Electric Vehicle).
The foundation of the Cyberwheel is a Gotway Monster V1, known for its stability and power, making it an ideal base for customization. Wesley’s meticulous design process involved numerous sketches and notes, covering every aspect of the wheel, from its chassis and battery configuration to control boards, cooling, and additional features like trolley handles, lights, and speakers.
Key features of the Cyberwheel include:
- Raised pedals for increased ground clearance and a different ride experience.
- A super-durable frame made from ABS sheet plastic.
- A built-in eWheels fast charger with adjustable charge rates.
- An automatic plug-less charging dock for convenience.
- An auxiliary 12V battery for various onboard systems.
- Automotive-grade LED headlights.
- EVA foam padding for comfort and protection.
- High-visibility reflective skin for enhanced safety.
- A trolley/lift handle for easy maneuverability.
- A non-contact motor cutoff switch for reliability.
- A removable seat attachment for comfortable seated riding.
- Full-body waterproofing to protect against water intrusion.
- Hub-cap-style wheel covering for improved aerodynamics.
- Additional heatsink area to enhance cooling.
- Neoprene battery cradle to absorb shocks.
- Tool storage for quick maintenance.
- Dual dash-cams for capturing rides.
- Waterproof Bluetooth speakers for entertainment.
- A convenient “kickstand.”
- Accent lighting for aesthetics and visibility.
- Undercarriage lighting for a unique glow.
- An auxiliary power port for future modifications.
The Cyberwheel offers a unique and exhilarating riding experience, combining the power of Gotway’s latest wheels with the comfort and planted feel of a smaller wheel. Despite its chunky build, it provides an unmatched sensation. Wesley’s creation represents a remarkable fusion of innovation and customization in the world of electric unicycles.
