Wooooow!!!
Years ago I designed something similar and I always wanted to have one in real live :3
The only issue with this design: How do you break? You'd just keep on rolling - but the pilot is rolling with the wheel :S

Interesting, just don't stop fast or you roll over.

I had never thought of that before. Vehicles like bikes and cars have the leverage of their frame's weight to counter their wheels' rotation, but a monowheel has no outside mass to provide the torque necessary to stop the spinning. You'd do somersaults every time you tried to stop.
Maybe this is why monowheels aren't popular.

Yup, I tried to find a YouTube video of that problem I saw a few years ago, but no luck. Did you know that a German company made one of the first ones back in the late 1800?

I found a monowheel crash here: youtu.be/cM3fVXsPyUE?t=46s ...but it doesn't show the wheel rolling over. Instead, it shows it wildly wobbling back and forth before twisting to the side and flipping like a coin. It doesn't make monowheels look good, I must say. I'll have to see if I can find a good roll later.
And I had no idea that monowheels went so far back. Crazy! I'll have to research these things to learn more about them.

It might have been the one I saw, thanks.
Actually it was 1894 French motorized unicycle displayed at The Auto and Technik Museum Sinsheim, Germany, that I saw a video of on YouTube.
