Begode T4. Is it the Apprentice or really the Master ?

[@skobuffs7]

i really like my T4, it's just so zippy and nimble and fun! i do have concerns about being a first batch owner with the reported ZX motor issues. i noticed that your T4 has the yellow plastic rings at both the top and bottom of the suspension. mine came with rings only on the bottom. one of the Begode guys mentioned on a FB T4 group that even the bottom ones could be removed. that seems like it would free up even more suspension travel with those things gone. nice review!

[@scottdaviesyoutube]

My top rings were in the charger box (all ours have the second 2 included)

[@MisterGames]

I am a fair weather rider on my escoots even if they have water rating, but i occasionally come across water going across a path like when there is water when someone is washing their car or it rained earlier and some is seeping out of the adjacent grass. Is the T4 ok going through that surface water on paths?

[@SergeTarkovski]

Please review the Ex30 and Sherman S once they are available.

[@scottdaviesyoutube]

Sherman S coming soon (about weeks away)

[@DaleClark1000]

Nice editing, love the hot-takes with the music/vid. Oh yeah... and the T4 sounds good too (surprised to find myself considering a Begode).

[@scottdaviesyoutube]

Haha man I was the same I’ve tried older generations and wasn’t a fan, these new ones are night and day for ride quality,

[@xvaldez3284]

Definitely pulling the trigger if they get those motor issues fixed

[@scottdaviesyoutube]

They have already been addressed new pin solution and they have moved motor factory’s, 1 thing they did that really impressed me was give all batch 1 owners 2 year warranty

[@rengod1404]

Ordered my T4 second batch aswell, yesterday they arrived at poland customs cant wait :D

Awesome.. this could be my first suspension wheel.

[@scottdaviesyoutube]

Mate, you’ll enjoy it if you do !!

[@fujmon]

Great review, Scott. I’m ride a Nik AR+ and am sold on 16’s for their nimbleness and torque compared to larger wheels in general. A T4 v2 certainly looks like a natural progression should I (n)ever decide to part with my Nikki. 😂

[@Rasputin.Bogard]

Hey Scott, have you ridden the T4 with the new batch knobby tyre? Was hoping it still goes well on the street?

[@scottdaviesyoutube]

Mate I’m about to tomorrow ! Heading out for a “fun day” then I’ll hopefully filing the difference next week

[@Rasputin.Bogard]

@@scottdaviesyoutube Appreciate the response mate. I'll look forward to it. Just moved to Brissy from Perth and left my MSP there. Looking forward to coming in very soon and picking up a suspension wheel.

[@Dave-cf4vd]

The knobby is a fantastic tire, and has nice turning characteristics on the street. It is a legit 12-3.00 motorcycle tire, which means it is quite a bit bigger than a so called 3" you usually see on EUCs.

[@steveslife9889]

Great review, thanks Scott

incredible review! would you say that this is like Nikola with suspension?

[@scottdaviesyoutube]

Hmmm not really, has a lot more torque more like a RS

[@keithmurakata5359]

Yes great video production and enjoyable video--just one thing --you mentioned the C30 as a torque motor --well actually the torque motor is the C38, which a lot of the community was puzzled as to why they made this wheel with the high speed motor(since the obvious application is off-road/trail riding)🤷🏽‍♂️🤷🏼‍♂️--otherwise great video

[@scottdaviesyoutube]

Thanks and Yes C30 was traditionally a high speed, apparently even though this has a c30 name its been "re worked" and does in fact deliver more torque. This is just what I was told from Begode I used their term "super torque" lol Cheers and thanks for the great info

[@Mac_N_Cheez]

How well do these operate going up hills? I'm sure the large tire really makes things much nicer relative to long boards. Great review.

[@scottdaviesyoutube]

Mate these are amazing on hills, This one can go up 40-45deg, literally no street in Australia it can’t fly up. The torque is next level

[@Mac_N_Cheez]

@@scottdaviesyoutube Wow that is amazing.

[@JD-qo9wk]

Does it have a mount/stand?

Not Standard but there is a nice aftermarket one (red steel) About $50 Australian

Been wondering what you are using for your action cam. Are you using a gopro mounted to some sort of gimbal?

[@BunnyslippersEUC]

T4 is a fun affordable wheel. With the prices of some performance wheels skyrocketing.

[@JimmyCrackCorn_RA]

Is it a 3inch tire?

[@Catamount19]

Woww.. congrats on the job. I guess I need to come over to the euc world.. lol. That learning curve tho....

[@scottdaviesyoutube]

Yes man it’s no super easy, that said I had a guy come into the shop today, never been on a EUC and within 15 minutes he was ridding unassisted in the carpark

[@sh.e_rides4091]

Thanks for the review Scott 👌 I had actually been looking at this wheel for a while and thought it would suit my riding style and body weight really well. Love my ks s18 but if anything happened to it the T4 looks like a similar wheel that is potentially an upgrade. I have concerns over safety and begodes reputation for batteries.... But the faster speed, knobby tire and honey comb pedals would be nice to have 😊

[@sh.e_rides4091]

What's breaking like btw? I find the bigger heavier wheels too hard to break at 50kg in weight.... There's too much weight to ratio for me 😅

[@WorldwideDarts]

Never ridden one of these. Never even seen one in real life. How hard are they to get the hang of?

[@scottdaviesyoutube]

Takes about 2hrs and a few sore legs 😂

[@freeforester1717]

Don’t be like the reviewer, wear stout ankle protection (you’ll thank me later), wrist protectors and knee and elbow guards as well as the skid lid. Not too hard to learn, but easy to come unstuck on if you’re not as careful as you should be. Safe riding!

[@scottdaviesyoutube]

Totally agree, new boots arriving this week and a new set of gloves with wrist protection that will hopefully let me hold my camera stick.

[@WorldwideDarts]

@@freeforester1717 Yep, I'm an old as dirt eboard rider. I learned the hard way when it came to safety equipment. Now I wear knee and elbow pads any time I got out. Although it's a safe bet I'll never get one of these.

[@DonovanWert]

Little bit of a learning curve. But well worth it! It’s been the most fun I’ve had in my 53 years on this planet!

[@NeoVdV]

What about the waterproofing ?

[@scottdaviesyoutube]

Not the best unfortunately

[@NeoVdV]

@scottdaviesyoutube did they made it better in batch 4 ?

[@stephanebertrand-pellisson5206]

Hi ! Thanks forbyour review ! Did you try the master ? If so, How would compare these two wheels ? Especially for trail riding, ride safe !

[@scottdaviesyoutube]

Yea man, I ride the master most days especially to the cafe for lunch. It’s 100% a lot faster and feels more solid, But the T4 feels more exciting and a lot easier to carve etc

[@maneeoocho350]

Do you have any issues with your lcd screen when your wheel is in cold environment?

[@scottdaviesyoutube]

I don’t but I’ve heard there is a few issues and Begode is working on a fix

[@patrickmckowen2999]

Looking like everything I need in a wheel. Cheers

[@scottdaviesyoutube]

Mate I tell you, we fight over the T4 at the shop when it’s time for a lunch run, it’s a great wheel 🛞

[@macgrillsmacgrills901]

Is this the same one I got from you? Also, you’re flying at 50 in this? How do I stop the wobbles? I got them at 35 and smashed myself. I am riding on a dirt road though. Is this why?

[@scottdaviesyoutube]

This is a smaller one, the Master is the one you got that’s even faster Wobbles is just a practice thing, takes time for your body to adjust

[@esk8unity]

this is probably my next uni. definitely want a suspension uni in the arsenal. good stuff bud 🤘🏼 am i crazy for liking basic grip tape peddals over the metal spiked ones?

[@scottdaviesyoutube]

You just need to try the right set, try the inmotion honey comb, they are beautiful and not too harsh on your feet 🦶

[@NeoVdV]

What is changed in batch 4 ?

[@scottdaviesyoutube]

So many things New board New charge board New low voltage board New tyre New pedals Metal battery cases Probably a few other things I’ve forgotten

[@DangaWaT]

Scott, how come i never see ur wearing wrist guards?

[@scottdaviesyoutube]

To be very honest, it’s hard to hold a camera stick. When I’m not filming I wear them. I have a new set arriving this week to test out hopefully and work.

[@kutvis]

Thank you for the video! Begode motors are ranked as C30 = high speed, C38 = high torque and C40 = very high torque. T4 got C30, but it got lots of torq because of small wheel size even though it got high speed motor, but the motor is not high torque as you comment.

[@scottdaviesyoutube]

Begode has apparently reworked the C30, so they claim for the T4

[@scottdaviesyoutube]

Yea I had the same question, when I was talking to Begode they told me the below:

[@sevenfloorsdown]

It's petty but I'm never getting over how 'Begode' sounds like.

[@KK-ol5ov]

What does it sound like?

[@Dave-cf4vd]

The cold hard truth is the T4 has LESS starting torque than my modded 84v Nikola, with same diameter tire, and same height pedals. You heard that right - it requires more lean to get the same "go", almost like a bigger wheel. There is a hill I can make up with my modded Nikola, and so far cannot make it up with the T4, because it requires more lean, compromising traction. My old T2 is significantly more zippy from a start than the T4. Makes me sad that the old wheels are still better in this regard.
