Headline: YX One: The Ultimate All-terrain Board Launches

Caption: The daily commute is about to get a lot more exciting – thanks to a three-wheeled scooter-type vehicle that can go off-road. The YX ONE has a 37-mile range and a top speed of 25mph, but unlike electric skateboards or scooters is claimed to be all-terrain. The YX ONE is available at a limited time launch price of $1,099. It will ship in time for Summer 2020 when the expected retail price will be $2,290. Currently being crowdfunded, and already over its funding goal, Dublin-based company Moby say: “A fully electric, all new design, combining the best of electric one wheel, all-terrain & eSkate technology. Power, control and exhilaration, all perfectly balanced. Responsive hand-controlled acceleration and powerful disk braking. Go where your electric skateboard won't. Do what your one wheel simply can’t. Tackle hills, trails, race across sand dunes or cruise to work. Proven off-road and designed to provide an exhilarating experience on any terrain. The YX ONE is more mountain bike than electric skateboard in its capabilities. The YX ONE’s rear powered wheel & front positioning wheels ensure awesome ride manoeuvrability and control at any speed. The rider moves body weight to control, shifting weight front to back, toe-heel to dictate direction. The rear wheel at 13’ is the biggest wheel yet used on an electric board. This single point of powered contact with the ground, is what makes the YX ONE a truly unique ride experience. Lean into turns with confidence. The rider controls speed and the disk brake via the boards connected control handle. Ensuring a safer ride experience and supporting balance and directional control, at higher speeds or short turns. Providing a level of ride agility that is simple unmatched. With a monster 37-mile range (depending on weight & conditions), you’ll get tired before your YX ONE does. You can quickly swap out or charge the battery to go even further. With a top speed of 25 mph and three power modes to choose how you ride. YX ONE has been engineered and extensively tested on harsh off-road environments. From inception we’ve focused on build quality and durability. The YX ONE’s steal frame, toughened outer shell and expansion springs, make for a solid all terrain ride experience. The wheel hub, rear mud flap and skid plate, provide additional board and rider protections.” YX ONE HIGHLIGHTS · Up to 40km/h (25mph) - top speed · Up to 60km (37-mile) range · 1500w max output · 48v / 13ah battery · Swappable / extendable battery · 3 power modes · Hand controlled disk braking
