LeaperKim

LeaperKim, also known by its official name Guangzhou Veteran Intelligent Technology Co., Ltd., is one of the most dynamic players in the rapidly growing electric unicycle industry. Despite being founded relatively lately, LeaperKim has proved how dedicated and innovative their team is in bringing out new unicycles. That has earned them a reputation as one of the most popular brands among advanced riders. All five founders have some background with Begode – another innovation oriented developer of EUCs.

Currently (2024) LeaperKim’s production site in Guangzhou, is number 2, after growing out of the first one.  The breakthrough was called Veteran Sherman – not to be confused with the American tank M4, that was named Sherman by the British during WWII. Sherman  sold more copies than was ever anticipated. Later it was followed by Sherman Max, that is still available in stores and offers consistent quality and a very pleasing riding experience.

Naming their electric unicycles after famous tanks, reflects the company’s commitment to produce products that are solid and with robust structures that can withstand tough conditions.
