The gas powered Wheelman has a center mounted 50cc engine on its sturdy aluminum frame and is supported at each end by a spokeless wheel into which your feet can be inserted while standing upright enjoying the ride.
Our Wheelman has a 50cc 2-stroke engine which takes a mix of gas and oil just like most weed eaters. The tank capacity is one liter of fuel and will give you a run time of over one hour or 30 miles and speeds up to an exhilarating 22 MPH.
The Wheelman is also referred to as a Bushpig, G-Wheel, Xcite Bike and G-Motion. It was named one of Time Magazine's "Best Inventions of the Year in November, 2002" The Wheelman gas powered skateboard has also been featured on television shows like: The NBC Today Show, Ripley's Believe It Or Not, Livin' Large and X-Corps TV.
How it works:
There is a bit of a learning curve on the Wheelman which very similar to the learning curve of skateboarding, snowboarding, or surfing. If you have some experience riding one of those you will be surprised at how quickly you can get the knack of riding on this gas powered skateboard.
At a cruising speed you use body movement to steer and at low speed (and you can ride a Wheelman at an extremely slow pace) you can angle the front wheel from side to side with your foot. The speed is controlled by a cable type controller held in your hand, the more you squeeze, the more faster you will go. Slowing down is as simple as letting off of the throttle for a slow and smooth deceleration. When you need to stop quickly, simply pull the brake lever on the hand held control. Once you have the hang of it you'll be tearing up the grass, slidin' in the dirt, cruising the sandy beaches which are all part of the good times to be had on your new Wheelman skateboard.
