When people say rideable, the IO Hawk is one of the first things I think of. It’s what you would use to get around at a conference, mall, and maybe even your workplace. It can be compared to similar products like the ACTON rocket skates and even some self-balancing unicycles. It self-balances and uses your body movements to speed up and slow down, while leaving your hands completely free. The IO Hawk has a top speed of 6.2 MPH, which people have criticized, but when moving indoors you don’t want to have anything past 10 MPH. The range from the small 36 V 4.4 Ah battery is a bit better because it will last for about 12 miles. This is a good amount for moving around inside all day or lightly traveling outdoors from a bus/train stop to work. As you can see from the video above, you have lots of control over the vehicle and can make some very sharp/precise moves.
The IO Hawk has a small built in display to give you information on the battery life, power, and its status. You even get a small remote with your vehicle so you can remotely lock and unlock it when you’re not using it. There are also weight sensors under the IO Hawk that quickly calculate the weight distribution and control how fast to speed up and slow down. Lastly, you have the built-in lights that help for night riding and let others see you better. The whole thing is wrapped up nicely in a slick design that will make people look twice when you roll by!
We really like the IO Hawk, but there is one problem with it. When you compare its price to vehicles of similar specs, it’s much too high. For example, the ACTON R10 skates are under half the price and provide almost the same stats. This just means the IO Hawk isn’t for everyone, but still serves a great purpose for short distance commuters and professional events. It has the advantage of lots of stability and a much smaller learning curve compared to other self-balancing vehicles. Tell us what you think of the IO Hawk by leaving a comment below or tweeting us!
