It would avoid the congestion charge being both a scooter and electric, its size would avoid those hugely expensive parking bays and security issues as you could take it into the office and onto the train home and it would avoid you looking like a complete moron standing on one of those loopy Segways.

I think Segways would have have flew off the shelves if their speed was as fast and safe as a bike.
