@@B.Zee... yeah, that happened to me and I ended up having to pry/ push it out by slight force. Just brace it against something and push. Hope that makes sense. You may have held/ engaged the brakes before hand. It’s fairly simple once you get the mechanics. Goodluck bro. 👍

@Gino. i got it. Just had to loosen the wire clamp next to it

@@jarellhaygood it’s a ModiLens Helios 44m

@@justonbrazda3846 I don’t have any Sony camera but tech specs states, “44.1 lbs vertical load capacity.” I tested it but only using a DJI Action 2 so far. It’s sturdy so I imagine the claims to hold up. I’ll be testing other cams in the future. 👍

I'm not 100% sure but I think I may have a vid of it, I have to search for the footage. If I find it, I'll upload it but it's pretty easy man. My intercom just clips in a crevice between the helmet and the padding, then I use the same gap to run the wires for the speaker and mic. No adhesives or any of that. It's pretty snug and have had no issues or slippages. Thanks for commenting.

@@Gino. i wann try to put my intercom on but need guidelines, hope you will find the footage if yes pls tag me

Feel free to check out the links I’ve provided 👍

@@Pivot_Media_TV because the cameras I’d want are between $5-9 grand and I like BeastCage and their products. Why do people care what others do with their money?

@@Gino.I never said I cared I asked a question. Maybe I could have worded it better but never the less I don’t see how it made you think I cared. Furthermore since you are making content about it. It seems like you kinda want people to care? Anyway….I am trying to understand how this is beneficial? I get you want an expensive camera. I do too. Currently I have an iPhone 15 that I use sometimes as my b cam. My main shooter is a lumix s5iix and where I can make the iPhone footage match. When I pixel peep. I can definitely tell a huge difference between the two with the iPhone being the worst. Not terrible just worse than the lumix. I guess I am just wondering if you think this iPhone setup is better than a camera like the s5 or a73 or a gh5? I’d much rather use my phone since that is something I already have than to buy a new camera. But if I am just going to add a lens and it increases the poor picture quality then that wouldn’t be an option. I hope we can move past the initial misunderstanding..

@@Pivot_Media_TV I guess we both coulda chosen a different route. I’ve just been seeing more and more of people questioning me why? Like I owe anybody an explanation. I honestly can care less what people think, not everyone has to have the same purpose for sharing content/ for memories/ hobbyist/ for practice/ for professional content/ who knows? You sound like you know your cameras, I’m definitely no professional, this is just a hobby. I love tech, visuals, form, function, knowledge, features, new technology, brand, etc. And to answer your question, I don’t think this iPhone setup is the be-all-end-all, cameras are still going to be far superior but that gap is getting somewhat narrower, and it’s modular so you can add accessories to it, why the hell not? This setup is definitely a niche’ but I think it’s pretty awesome. When’s the last time a camera shot a video, edited it, uploaded it, emailed it, then surfed the net and watch KZbin? To be completely honest I’m perfectly satisfied with the stock iPhone 15 Pro Max quality. I just wanted to add cool shit to it. If we all did things the same way, it’d be a really boring world I’d want no part of. At the end of the day, I shoot things for me. If you like it and enjoy it, cool. If you don’t agree, then I just did you a favor by being your guinea pig. Thanks for clearing the air.

@@Gino. I hear you man just remember engagement is engagement. Whatever your reasons are if you put stuff out on the web people are gonna have an opinion on it. Getting bent out of shape will be a full time job. KZbin doesn’t care what kind of engagement you get as long as you get it… As far as the phone goes it’s definitely interesting. I’d like to see a smart phone with a real live camera sensor on it or better yet maybe a way to add one by connecting it to the usb c port. That would be bad ass…

@@Pivot_Media_TV That is true, I haven’t been looking it at it as engagement is engagement. Lately, it’s been engagement is en-ragement, where people will criticize how crappy my videos are (and I agree with them, again, not a professional here), then I go to their channel to get some pointers (to get better) and they have zero vids. That’d be a great idea, hopefully they can make it small/ thin enough with all the features because I would rather have a thin camera than a fat phone.

@@hahahahahahahahahahahahaha11 if budget/ price and compact size are your concerns, then yes, otherwise, I would probably go with the regular full size tbh 👍

@@Gino. Bet thank you so much love your videos

@@hahahahahahahahahahahahaha11 You got it man. I appreciate the kind words!

Yes I believe that is correct 👍

Do you know if it works with the DJI RS3 Mini? I’ve been searching but I don’t think the DJI RS3 Mini supports Raven Eye. I am currently looking into the Tilta Nucleus II but then I have to figure out what battery to power it.

Doesn't work like that. You a rather use the Tilta Focus via bluetooth connective for follow focus system.

Hey @ap-sport , it’s actually a Smallrig Follow-Focus and I bought it separately. It’s not necessary but it is convenient 👍. I hear ya, the DOF MK3 is definitely sought after, I’m sure a next batch will be needed.

@@Gino. Okay, have to look into that. In the kind of videos I shoot (rally cars) I often need to zoom in and out quickly and maintain focus. Do you think this follow-focus could help me with this or what’s the upside with it?

@@ap-sport it is convenient and may help ya but it’s really all subjective. Having the follow focus with the rods/ baseplate will add weight so I don’t know your setup, do you use a tripod/ monopod? Because that will determine whether the follow focus will add value for ya.

@@Gino. It differs a little from time to time. Sometimes gimbal, sometimes tripod and sometimes completely handheld.

@@ap-sport ah I see, so then you definitely seem like the flexible type to at least try a follow focus. Again not necessary but convenient at pulling focus. 👍

I appreciate that @david4563 👍

@chriskimpele859 Yea man, not sure if their KickStarter campaign is still open or if they still have any stock but chances are it’s all sold out. You may wanna try there and ask or wait for the next batch. Goodluck 👍

@Ayethatsty naw bro I don’t work for or with BeastGrip but I wish 👍. I received mine mid/late April (approx.) thru their KickStarter campaign. If you are in similar boat, ping em and get a status on your pledge. I did not receive any shipment info, it just randomly and pleasantly showed up 👍. I’m sure it’s just delayed with so many that pledged! I’ve never had any issues dealing with BeastGrip and I’ve been supporting for ages now since I’ve known about ‘em! Good luck bro!

I hear ya bro. I was trying this lens and it has such a shallow DOF and I needed a third hand lol. I appreciate the feedback tho.

Sorry bro, I don’t know what language that is, Spanish maybe? I only understood, “Friend” and “Job/ work” and “Long Distance.”

@neilwilliams4312 I’d love to work for/ with BeastGrip, but I unfortunately do not 🙂. Thats what happens when these innovative products are sought after. I’m sure they’ll restock but it’ll just take them sometime. This DOF MK 3 Kickstarter campaign started last year and was just recently fulfilled. Thanks for the comment! 👍

Yep, and for a long time. Don't know how they stay in business.

Yeah man, I feel for ya. I wanted so badly to be able to balance the cage rightside up as the upside down BeastCage logo just irks me. I haven’t been able to balance it rightside up so this is how she sits. I changed the baseplate to a quick release and it still doesn’t balance properly. This setup is the only way I found it to balance. Thanks for your comment bro.

@@Gino. figure out any way to use Bluetooth with iPhone, for at least record?

@@Boness_Ice_360yes, for mic, the new DJI Mic 2 will be my solution. It’s Bluetooth capable 👍

@@Gino. What about for recording or zoom. Do you know of any bluetooth solutions for that?

@@Boness_Ice_360app recording wise, I use Filmic Legacy, BeastCam, or BlackMagic Cam. These 3 apps have Bluetooth connectivity (some may be limited though). Hope that helps ya. For zooming in, I’m waiting for my ordered BeastCage iPhone 15 w/ the BeastGrip DoF mark 3 to come in 👍.

Yes it is possible for vertical orientation, I just don’t prefer that style is all and never attempted but I saw it in the manual somewhere. Good luck man.

Thanks for reminding me bro, I've updated my links in the description. Feel free to check it out for more info and quicker access. 👍

Yeah, I was planning on it. Stay tuned.

@@Gino. thx mate

You're welcome. Installing the Sena is extremely easy! The Shoei Ex Zero's helmet shell has about 3-4 cm of space to accommodate the Sena. It clips right on the helmet very snuggly in between the cusion and helmet shell. I don't know how your Cardo clips on but if it has some flexibility (plastic clip) and 3-5cm of space, it should theoretically work. I should have created a video installing the Sena 🙂 (maybe in the future). Hope that helps.

@Gino It was easy to place the intercom headphones?

I appreciate the kind words. I know you’re aware of how challenging it can be to record these types of videos. I’m def not an expert but just a dude wanting to help people and hopefully explain it to like-minded learners👍

Thank you for the additional helpful info. Funny you mentioned it, I bought Sintered ones, I may have read that somewhere, prob from you lol. Can’t wait to replace my brakes and see. 👍

Do you guys know what material does the stock onyx rcr pads uses?

I hope you know that shooting, ‘how to’ videos is not the easiest. Also, I can’t go back in time to change this. I appreciate the feedback but please practice gratitude, it goes a long way man.

@@Gino. No offense intended. Thanks for your effort.

Thanks, I appreciate the kind words. As for the handle bars, aesthetically, I think it looks better than stock. Comfort-wise though, that’s where it differs. I get wrist pain from riding on distant rides. I feel that risers may help alleviate this issue. The limited angle of the bars in conjunction with the bike is just lacking. I’m actually still editing a video of the handlebar install that I may upload in the future, so please keep an eye out for it 👍.

Full disclosure, I ride an Onyx Motorbike (so no highways for me) but it terms of wind noise, it’s ‘semi-open faced,’ it’s not going to be quiet. Which is probably why I personally love this helmet. The ambient sound is calming to me, besides, I also have a Sena Bluetooth blasting music when I ride. Bottom line, it just has that unique profile and aesthetically beautiful silhouette, you’re not going to find too often.

@@Gino. thanks for the reply! I'm definitely gonna grab one, just make sure I have a regular "sensible" helmet for longer highway trips/shitty weather days!

@@jakflasdick no problem. Also, just an FYI but this helmet is not DOT approved which is why we don’t have this helmet readily available in the US (I don’t know where you’re from but you may want to keep that in mind, just in case you were not aware of this). Happy riding bro!

@domcan24 bro, it’s been awhile but the rims were 16x9 Rota Slipstreams and tires were Yokohama ES100 (tire size was I think 215 45?). Hope that helps man.

Bro, I hear ya. I love my previous peak visor and it’s so much more affordable: It’s a Biltwell Smoke Visor: $9.99 amzn.to/3QE0OJ0 But I go back and forth with my preference. Having options is never a bad thing to have 👍. Thanks for the kind word man.

@@Gino. Thank you! I plan on putting this on my off white Ex-Zero

@@vincentperez3160 dude that off white Ex Zero is clean! Cop-mode 👍. But that peak would pair well, and at $9.99, you can even pick up a white Biltwell visor and still spend nowhere near the Shoei peak visor!!! Post vids of your Ex Zero bro! (if possible) 👍

Certainly McFly, I also made a vid about this for reference: kzbin.info/www/bejne/nHWcqoepp6qbidk

@@Gino. so I can even use the front break pads for the rear break pads too as well or they can only be used for the front ?

@@martymcfly4434 you haven’t watched my rear brakes replacement vid I take it? Short answer is, it’s a different brake pads bro.

@@Gino. the front break pads I was going to get which I think are the ones you recommended in the links you provided were GOO FIT front disk break pads but when I went to order it on Amazon they said it wouldn’t come till October and I wasn’t trying to wait that long to get since I’m still trying to ride my bike till summer ends. Would I be able to get those same ones at a regular bike shops or no?

@@martymcfly4434 I see. That is quite a wait. I’ve updated the links. I’ve also tried these to hold me over awhile back: amzn.to/3pif1zh But I think they became squeaky after some use (but it could’ve just been me using it hard or a bad batch?) I bought a bunch since the price is not too bad. As for buying it in bike shops, I couldn’t tell ya as I’ve always ordered mine online. I imagine a moped store would make more sense.

Marty, I’m glad this vid helped you. Just remember, you can always go back to the future to rewatch this for reference. 🙂👍!

Naw man, the rear brakes are a 5mm Allen bro. Watch my other vid for the rears! :)

@@Gino. thanks appreciate it

@@nkay95 You got it bro :)

Damn bro! That’s some story. That is unfortunate and I’m happy to be able to help. I could not find a video either so I just wanted to help out. I’m glad you’re safe man as it couldve been worse. Hope you have a quick recovery and get back out there with fresh brakes (front and back), with the speed of these bikes, you’ll eventually need to stop 🙂👍. Ride safe bro.

I took a fall too hit my head pretty hard was luckily wearing a helmet but I'm thinking I might have lost some brain cells might affect down the road in life.

@@FreddyD177 damn, that’s unfortunate. If you’re that concerned, it prob wouldn’t be a bad idea to get checked out for any concussions bro. Best of luck and stay safe man.

That’s a great question, and I’m probably the wrong person to ask this only because I cannot stand the squeaking sound on these bikes and since the brake pads are fairly affordable and it’s pretty easy to replace. I replace mine as soon as I can no longer tolerate the squeaking lol. You also have to take into consideration how much you ride, how spirited you ride, weight, elements etc. but theoretically it states 500 to 1,000 miles. As for signals, you’ll pretty much know when your brakes are losing their ‘grab.’ The squeaking is not really a tell only because mine still had a bunch of life on them, I just couldn’t put up with the squeaking, and I’ve done the whole CRC Brake quiet stuff and it does not help tbh. Hope this helps ya man!

Thank you much

@@B.Zee... you got it man, glad I can help 👍

@@Gino. was it just the back or are the fronts squeeky too? I have the same problem with the noise when riding below 7mph. Sounds so bad

@@nkay95 Hey Kayani, to be fair, I did go on a spirited uphill/ downhill Onyx group ride so that prob wore the brakes some and if we’re to be honest, these bikes are so silent that we’ll prob hear the brakes before anything else. But with all that being said, my bike does not have any noise issues at 7mph. Maybe your rotor is bent Or alignment issue? Maybe reach out to confirm with Onyx, I’m sure they’ll be able to help you better than I could. Good luck 👍!

I have very low miles man (~400 or so, if that). I barely ride it but I did go to an Onyx group ride in the mountains (still need to edit that vid) and when I got back it was squeaking, unbearably. And since the brake pads are fairly cheap, I just replaced them :)… also instructional content for the community.

@@Gino. I’ll be using it when I do mine… I also didn’t see any out so glad you did… I’m almost at 500 miles and mine also squeak… but it’s bearable so I won’t be changing mine anytime soon lol 😝

@@mr.e_from_nyc I hear ya (pun intended 👌) hahah.

Did the front brake become harder to press after this? Mine has. Not sure if that’s normal from the newer pads being more thicker?

@@Gino. Ha Haaaaaa Good one ☝️

Thanks brotha! I gotta catch up on your vids man. Been busy but thought I’d just add to the community like you :).

I bought 1ft x 5ft but it will not be enough to do both sides unfortunately, unless you get really creative lol.

I have no background with videography or anything like that, I just try to convey somethings as visually appealing to me but that completely made my day. Thank you for the kind comments.

@Gin You're a natural then! And it's our pleasure 💛

@@SteAndRach You’re very kind, I’ll take it :) .

I’m definitely no professional, and was not looking for perfection, just good enough for my needs. I appreciate the feedback though man. I will look into it next time. Thank you. 🙂👍

Thank you! Just been busy with work. I do have to edit a vid though, stay tuned bro! 👌

Thanks man. I hear ya but there’s always customization/ mods. I hear ya on the weight though but it’s really a give and take. The weight helps with stability but you do sacrifice, ‘portability.’

You could start pumping iron like Arnold “ I’ll be back “ 😂

@@retro93277 Bwhahah I imagined Arnold time travelling into an Onyx meet and hijacks an Onyx naked wif a shotty! lol

Bro, much appreciated as always. Thanks for checkin in 👌!
