In the classic sci-fi film "Back to the Future", the protagonist uses a hoverboard to get around, which has left a deep impression on many fans. Among today's balance bike products, the hoverboard (generally called a twisting car in the Chinese market) category has also attracted a lot of popularity, becoming one of the most popular transportation tools in the European and American markets.
Hover-balanced scooters operate on the same principle as common two-wheeled hoverboards, but the market positioning is more towards toys. Hovercraft are usually not equipped with a steering bar, and the size of pedals and tires is very limited, so it has higher requirements for the user's sense of balance and proficiency, and is not recommended to be used as a transportation tool.
At present, the domestic market supervision of the hover-balance scooter market is small, resulting in uneven product quality and endless safety accidents, so it is not recommended that consumers buy self-balancing car products with low brand awareness in the Chinese market. Although most of the balance bikes in the U.S. market are also produced by Chinese factories, the market already has a complete quality and safety inspection system and reliable big brands, which is relatively more recommendable.
The SWAGTRON T1 is one of the first self-balancing bikes to be UL tested and certified, and the built-in aluminum battery compartment can effectively prevent the battery pack from catching fire and exploding due to impact. Priced at $299 and with a top speed of 13km/h, the SWAGTRON T1 has been recommended by wirecutter and Lifewire for its safety and price-performance ratio, and is currently one of the best-selling hoverbalance bikes on Amazon in the United States.
