The “Magicwheel” has no handlebars or brakes, can turn on a sixpence and reach speeds of up to 20mph.
“This is an ideal alternative for people who are used to riding skateboards, scooters, and roller blades,” said Kevin Johnston, of Magicwheels.

“It is much faster than a skateboard due to the sports wheel and it also goes further on each push of the foot. It will certainly get the user noticed.”
Mr Johnston said the £120 wheel is easy to ride and even easier to manoeuvre.
“It would take the average person a few hours of practice before they are able to ride with both feet on the board.
“To execute a minor turning you just adjust your weight or if you want to change direction completely then put one foot down and spin around.”
He added: “We experimented with having a brake and we found that it works better without one. To stop in an emergency you simply jump off and grab the handle or let it fall on the floor.”
