Definitely looking better! But the mechanics of those front ends scare me.

But the wheels are on backwards for Alley...aren't they?
I know what you mean Lukester, the locking of the wheels at slow speeds, and the slant on the wheels during turns is controlled, to some degree, by the computer. That's a lot of trust in the ECU.

I'll be betting they handle pretty good for the videos I have seen. I will be waiting for the chinese to make that style affordable.

How does it do on rough surfaces?

From the region of cobblestones? I'm sure it does fine. On a motocross track it's a lot front heavy and hard to do a wheelie.

We have brick streets here and some cobblestone but I bet it does not do much better than my R-trike. When one front wheel hits an obstacle of any sort, pothole, crack, gravel, etc etc, -the scoot pulls to one side. It is just physics. The front track is narrower than mine but the same problem exists.
