Am I just being paranoid, or does it look like there’s always a lot of distortion/noise around the unicycle? Might just be the also fairly suspect potato quality, but ehhh it’s hard to believe anything from video these days

Edit: I can’t seem to find one of these unicycles with a top speed over 60 (though some do mention users claiming to have hit 70), but seems a little sus. The manufacturers even state exceeding max speed will result in motor cutout, meaning a guaranteed crash at ~60mph

Could be something custom. Also, it is often possible to disable manufacturer speed limiting devices.

If it is custom, dude should call up Guiness to make it an official record.

As for the currently available ones, that limit isn’t software, they even advertise a higher “freespin speed”. You can use this article as reference, but I found similar from other manufacturers advertising high speed electric unicycles.
