Riding my v11 unicycle one last time before I sell it because I own too many EUCs
It's a great commuter. Relatively waterproof, durable, goes 34mph, 30+ mile range.
I really just ride my mten5 or ex30 or motorcycle 95% of the time though
That's a great looking bike man
That's awesome, you should share a pic of it too!
I haven't heard of anyone crashing due to hardware failure on any EUCs in the past year, so they've gotten pretty reliable.
Personally after a couple thousand miles I've never had a crash that wasn't caused by me running into something stupidly, and I've never had an injury. Just wear kneepads/helmet/wristguards and you'll be fine.
Bell Super Air R is such a good helmet, great choice
I have a similar helmet that I wear when going from 20-30mph from Smith, anything faster and I use my sedici motorcycle helmet
I'm sorry to hear that! So the front locked up and you had a highside crash? That's my greatest fear on my ebike (heybike ranger s) and my motorcycle (suzuki gs500). I hope you heal up and can get back to riding soon, and I'm glad you're still alive and coherent
And that really sucks that Engwe didn't care
Much love, thanks for running this place, it's the only good PEV community outside of reddit
I have to go to "edit" and then "crop" during upload, if you're using Sync for lemmy. Otherwise the image is too big
I love those! Drop through longboards are so comfy, but the maneuverability of a kick tail cruiser is nice too
I own this. It's pretty fun, but the 12mph speed limit kills it
I ride onewheels and EUCs and everything else. Onewheels are fun. A pintx can take you around town for a decent price.
My main issue with my onewheels has been how annoying they are to carry. My EUCs have trolley handles and can be pushed around in shops.
And if you want to go faster than 18mph you have to look to EUCs. For the price of a onewheel GT-S you can get this https://youtu.be/UsQtRVW3hs4?si=ZujSsjm0d7HFTEFw
Or for the price of a pint-s you can get a T4-pro which will cruise at 35mph, have tons of torque, and easily go over 30 miles.
Also EUCs are safer. I can get into why that is if you want.
