What are you trying to achieve? Keep weight/volume of the device low? Or is about training running but being bicycle-fast?

  I want to get somewhere faster with portable tools. Used to skate, but annoying to take skateboard everywhere. I live in SF, so bike gets stolen. Currently use Lyft e-bike rental but ideally have similar speed but backpack-able portability. Honestly, maybe I wear cooling vest and just jog to work. Walking too slow: 15+ min / mile.

    What about roller blades?

      I am an excellent ice skater and decent, not great rollerblader. Rollerblades are difficult to control and stop quickly (haven't mastered the sliding turn quick stop). They are much more sensitive to surface imperfections and slick surfaces than a bicycle. Finally, rollerblades are heavy and still require you to bring extra shoes, putting them on and taking them off takes about 5 minutes... All of this makes them impractical for commuting.
