Begode Master the first 55mph Electric Unicycle!!

I test out the fastest Electric Unicycle in the world the Begode Master, is this the dawn of a 134v EUC revolution?
This week I get to ride the Begode Mast for some initial impressions, a wheel I have been waiting for ever since its announcement just a few month ago. Does it live up to all the high hope everyone had for the next level of speed and power and what about that suspension??
Episode 106- Begode Master; Fastest EUC in the world!
Shoutout to Ronin for letting me burrow his wheel!

There is no way I would ride this thing at full speed ahahaha. My v11 don't even push to it's limits. I don't wanna die.

[@dannyien1]

I ride my v11 comfortably at 40-50kph(same route over and over). My only concern is getting a cut off. I would argue the master seems like a reasonable upgrade for increasing cruising speed without worrying about getting cut off. I too don't like to push euc to its limit.

[@astyn3117]

Just want to put it out there, I’m a beginner, my 1st wheel of all wheels is a “Gotway Nikola plus” didn’t know it wasn’t the type to start with but I’m HOOKED only 3 weeks in, I’m a Bus operator in the city currently driving the M86 crosstown bus, so I can’t wait to see you around … LOVE all of your stuff, I’m catching up to your older 2-3 year ago content … you’re pretty much the “Donut” to the EUC world with all these historical facts and deep information, hope you keep doing what your doing because we’re watching and listening!!

[@euc_sharkman]

Hey Hsiang! Great video on the Master! Mad props to the Ronin, the man of faith haha. I considered the Master and my trail riding crew all bought in, but that smaller battery won’t cut it for a heavy rider like me. Probably would only get like 20 miles on the Master. I opted for the EX20S C30 which actually feels higher quality than the Master, or perhaps the Master had to cut a few corners that they didn’t cut on the EX20S. Seat, pedals, kickstand, even the stock pads are pretty decent and I don’t see myself buying Clark’s or Grizzlas to compensate even with the heavier wheel weight, though I also think heavier riders don’t rely on pads as much. Keep up the videos and would love to hear your thoughts on the EX20S if you get to ride one!

[@stealtherider3008]

[@OWGAC]

The Master is faster, mpro 80% beeps at 47mph? And Master is at 54mph

[@mongi4435]

No. Thats all about battery care.

[@mongi4435]

Question is how long can it sustain 54?

[@facinerosu]

I understand that some people are annoyed by high pedals, but for me who use the wheel in the mountains, it is a great feature to avoid hitting the pedals on stones and roots and I love that it has an offroad wheel, as you can see it is very different depending on the use that you want to give, for me perfect comes like this.

[@privileguan9127]

This is not about high pedals, but rather the lack of an adjustable system to lower it.

[@flashyflash7152]

5:58 -Commander- Master* is the fourth Begode suspenion wheel

[@bkanegson]

No doubt, new higher current output battery packs (Molicel, the new EWheel higher flowing packs) are allowing Begode to leverage up the performance game. In the past, Begode/ Gotway outperformed the competition partly via a willingness to take risks/ cut corners. By allowing unfettered current draw, potentially crossing safety lines. I'd like to know Begode is concurrently improving other aspects (BMS, fuses, software, cable management, etc.) along with the battery tech, to make their wheels (far) less inherently combustible. Great video and thank you as always! I'll be looking forward to a tear down style vid to see if Begode has really upgraded the safety of the guts. I'd not trade the potential to burn down my house for the smile of going a bit faster. If they've changed to up their safety game, I'll change to considering to bring one inside to live with me. At this point, have (finally) learned to watch the market for a good while before leaping.

[@OWGAC]

No body knows really and even a tear down will only tell you so much. Unfortunately with EUCs the only way we know for sure is with actually usage history.. so we’re the guinea pigs..

[@mikelove6842]

Beautiful wheel sir

[@jabringmann]

good video. Music is a bit loud and distracting in the first 2 minutes. hard for me to hear you.

[@makatron]

Way too loud, I've mentioned before. Dialogue too quiet too and volume keeps going up and down. Needs normalizing the overall sound output for constant volume.

[@bigbadboogie6842]

Agreed, loud (and bad 😖 like an old commodore)

[@ivanmorales3265]

I think the first two minutes, he considers the intro, so he intentionally does it for the hype at the beginning, to excite the viewers and trap them for another 15 minutes. lol His style really turned me off at first, but then I realized we don't have that many people putting this much effort in to make these type of videos, so I think he's doing pretty dang good, we can't all be perfect

[@bravedave90]

Hopefully, you can get your hands on the Inmotion V12 soon and review that for comparison. But, FWIW as I'm sure many already know. Jack Song has left Kingsong and now recommends the Master.

[@duluncheyilai]

Oh no! I hope he goes to another wheel OEM. He seems to have helped raise the game for Kingsong.

[@howiedune3099]

The exn is such an underrated euc

[@Dennymolv]

So far I am loving the Master! I too put a street tire on it right away. As you said the torque and the speed are obvious instantly. The wheel feels very tall. I am 6'3" and become a sail at speed. crosswinds are the worst. I feel this wheel is much better suited for street/paved bike trail then it would be for big jumps. The suspension while very comfortable lacks the travel and compression rate of the S22

[@Ronin_Ryder]

Yep, 6'1 here, the wind gusts at speed suck on this wheel. Im looking at finding a way to get lower pedal hangers

[@Mpower31]

@@Ronin_Ryder Yeah, They are absurdly high. I'm under 6ft but still it's just ridiculous imo

[@scottsum1319]

Gotta say, heaping praise on GW is like a root canal trip to the dentist for Hsiang or at least that what it sounds like to my ears. I can imagine a vastly different "review" if said Master had a KS or IM stamped on it. Regardless, GW brought us another milestone in the EUC game so like it hate it or ambiguous over it, I for one am glad GW stepped it up both in performance & build. A fairer 'review' would be icing on the cake but I guess its a bridge too far for some.

[@OWGAC]

LOL, its really a love hate relationship. I do love to ride their wheels, but the many misses, the poor QC and communication all drives me nuts!

[@deridionentertainment]

Great video I don’t even have an EUC and don’t plan to get one because I’m a scooter and bike guy but I respect the wheel and person personality behind it plus the community. I’m getting a Rion so I’ll still be faster than the best and fastest euc but still much respect. I’ll be posting on my channel once I get it.

So hsiang how much is a 30 mph, over the speed limit, speeding ticket in your city???

[@pnut3844able]

So how are the regulations with these? I don't see blinkers and the like, so I'm assuming the DMV doesn't regulate these.

[@rolleverything]

I'm leaning toward the EX20s but man, this makes me want a Master.

[@OWGAC]

Haven’t had the chance to ride one but given the weight and lesser power, the only reason you’ll get the EX2S is if you want to do a longer range slower ride. Which is just fine but I am almost certain that gotway will eventually make a larger battery pack Master, so the EX2S will likely go outdated very quickly

[@rolleverything]

@@OWGAC Good insight. Thank you. I’m a big guy, so the larger battery pack of the EX20s is what I find so appealing. The Master with more battery is really what I want. I’ve been asking myself, how much range do I really need?

[@privileguan9127]

I'd say pick a city map, find the spots most appealing to you, measure longest distance multiply by 3-4 ??? profit

[@greenwave819]

You may want to note that the EX.N holds the current speed crown, not sherman, having won the first 2 annual grand championship at AVS. as well many other national invites.

[@pR-cv4iu]

How do you feel it will handle larger riders? There have been some questions about the shock and general durability.

[@OWGAC]

It’ll have more than enough power to handle more weight, but the shock? Probably not, there are less adjustability and I have heard many instances where it bottoms out even with regular weight riders, so if you’re a bigger guy then you’ll probably have to swap the shock

[@pR-cv4iu]

@@OWGAC Do you know if anyone has successfully swapped the shock yet? I have seen a few failed attempts and some reports about the general suspension design not allowing a standard 190/200mm rear MTB shock to fit. I think that the S22 may be a safer bet for me until the shock issue with the Master is resolved (but I am still keeping my Master pre-order).

1:17 "Higher performance even in comparison to hi perf electric scooters" Uhhhh, I did 64.2 mph on my Dual motor Kaabo Wolf King GT today.

[@federicomagnolfi5848]

In my opinion a EUC faster then 30 mph is a flying coffin..the braking distance is bigger, because you have to move all your body backwards in order to communicate at the EUC that you want to break and braking is smoother to prevent you from falling. So in general with an EUC is quite certain to crash at higher velocity and you don't have any protection... At 40 km/h (25 mph), almost all crashes result in severe injuries for a pedestrian and roughly half are fatal; and at 64 km/h (40 mph), fully 90% of crashes are fatal.
