It was a wide trail.. relax. I hit the 55 tiltback during the short street section in the Marty Fullerton Loop video :) Felt more solid than my Master at the same speed.

[@russellzauner]

[@AvecPasdMains]

I love that sincere laugh man. I remember thinking "this is not something I should be doing" while riding the east river drive in NYC with the biggest smile on my face. You know it makes no sense but it's such a thrill.

[@Curtish8892H]

I respect someone that has the balls to admit his limitations. I also respect the people that can ride at speed that are considered crazy for the common person (as I am one). Great vid as usual.

[@CaptainCandycorn]

I have had the Sherman S for about 1.5 months now, and even though it has a top speed of 55ish it seems due to air resistance the sweet spot for cruising is right around 40mph. I found it interesting that the same seems to be reflected in your video. I think we are at the point where having 55+ top speed doesn't really matter as the wind blast we get when riding at those speeds just makes it an unenjoyable experience. After all, we are literally standing straight up and down trying to shove a massive surface area through the air at high speeds.

[@a.d.h.dn3d461]

Your reactions are so genuine bro haha. Thanks again for another great video!! Your reactions coming out of tunnel was hilarious, that adrenaline rushes real!

[@thenotoriouseuc]

My man exited cutout tunnel like he ran it🤣😂. I love your content! Thank you.

[@AdamU1016]

Thoroughly enjoyed this video. I don’t think I will have the courage to even attempt 50 mph on my upcoming V13. I actually felt your fear when you were at the Cutout Tunnel. I was hyperventilating with you Bro. You are the best storyteller. Period.

[@cfrankfly]

Totally hyperventilating with YOU!

[@Gideon-300]

Great episode! Loved the cutout tunnel giggles! This is why I always recommend eucs to my motorcycle friends. You get a nice adrenaline rush while going at "slow" speeds according to motorcycles. Take in also the technique and skill required for curves makes them a blast to ride!

[@RCDevotee]

Thanks Hsiang! I am fine in the 35-45MPH range. I really don't want to go faster on a single wheel device.

[@MrIrrationalSmith]

I currently own 5 EUCs and have been riding since 2017. I'm loving our golden age of unregulated, unlicensed riding. If these things get fast enough to ride on freeways (60+ mph), we're gonna start seeing a lot of deaths and subsequent regulation. I really hope EUC companies start limiting their speed so that we *don't* have to deal with regulation.

[@matthewearl9824]

I agree and they should NEVER be able to be on the highways anyways. The wind resistance is too much to go over 50 anyways.

[@vtran1082]

​@@matthewearl9824 exactly right about the wind.

[@jonwall4994]

The wind force to overcome gets exponentially tougher and tougher to get through. At 45mph I'm leaning much more than I could standing on the ground and above 50mph look like a full Kuji launch. 58.7mph was the fastest I have done on my Sherman s and that was almost full sport bike featle position on my toes and all the trust in my pads. All while hoping the velcro pads hold! I can't see braking much past 60mph anytime soon. Much more fun under 45 anyway

[@slidersgliders5516]

@@jonwall4994 do you have any proof of doing that speed ? I don't think Sherman will do that mph

[@OWGAC]

Honestly short of some sort of tech breakthrough I am not sure if it'll ever be feasible to cruise comfortably at 60mph on an euc, and even if wheel have enough power to do it, with the amount of wind force you have to deal with, it'll always be a brief touch rather than sustained long ride. Maybe someone will figure out a way to attach a windshield to an euc?

[@zomniscient]

I haven't even pushed my V12 past 36mph, but I relate to your trepidation here so much - great vid!

[@Bodoczky]

I did push it to 69 km/h, but on a 16 inch wheel with no suspension, it's sketchy to say the least...

[@matthewearl9824]

I ride my v12HS above 39+ all the time. It is super fun. Can be sketchy though. You need to be aware of your environment. I had a tire blowout at 37. Wear safety gear.

[@bepriceless]

I got my V12 going 37.7 and luckily no wobbles.

[@jdbergan]

@@EUCvibes I ride mine up to pushback all the time. Especially when I'm seated

[@OWGAC]

as in all things I think with practice it'll get better. Although I really doubt I'll get much practice to ride an EUC at 50+mph!

[@Vince4343]

Your fast breathing and evil laugh coming out of the tunnel cracks me up so much every time I watch this video. I would never have the guts to go that fast !! you are brave!!

[@ThaBlackCobra]

Great job, 52.6 mph is very respectable Hsiang. I was hoping to get the chance to do some speed runs but wheel issues are holding me back for now.....

[@HumbolSkitso]

Did it turn out to be the bolts? That sucks either way. I wonder if thats what happened with chooch also, i feel like he shouldve dropped a video already.

[@phmiii]

Sweet Ride! 40+ MPH is still very fast!

[@lubokanev7436]

He did 53

[@phmiii]

@@lubokanev7436 Yes he did! And that is still Amazing!

[@ChrisH0Y]

This video has valuable data for me. It shows a nice section of speed information when an experienced EUC commuter travels in big city traffic. I find that as my own experience progresses (now more than a year) that the speed ninja sneaks up on you. What used to be 15mph comfortable speed now is touching 30mph - all this is subconscious. It's not until the end of the ride that I see how fast my average speed is getting. I feel this is dangerous in tight traffic for obvious reasons. By seeing this video, I set myself a benchmark that I can use as a speed guide to help me avoid a disaster in the future.

[@OWGAC]

for normal every day ride I don't really intentionally trying to ride faster or slower, instead I mostly stay at around the same speed as traffic and do whatever I think is the safest. for longer distance rides I did noticed that my average speed was up with the v13 since I am able to keep up even with 45mph traffic vs on other wheel I may pull over to ride more slowly on the side, which I actually think is more dangerous to have cars flying past you.

[@ChrisH0Y]

@@OWGAC I do agree. I sometimes get put in a situation where there is a narrow bike path with parked cars along the side. It's either travel at speed with the traffic, or risk getting "doored". In that instance, faster with traffic is better for me, and I use a helmet mirror to see what's going on behind me when I merge.

[@MmmhMarky]

@@ChrisH0Y me helmet mirror too.

This was awesome. I have yet to ditch my electric skateboard for a unicycle. But I feel like I have ridden one every time I watch your videos.

[@jltplease]

Cool, it can do 55. No need to go faster. Inmotion now needs to focus on updates to their current line up. Hardware and software. Like cars

On Every speed run I’ve held my breath entirely through! Awesome! Wish I could ride my expectant V13 with you (on calm traffic-less roads) lol The best storyteller for Sure!!!!

[@FabienMathey]

You need space and perfect ground to do this safely. And looking and the quality of the road in that tunnel, it is dangerous to go that quick there! Nice job though. And 52mph! Damn!

It didn't. The GPs stopped at 38ish

[@CameronMassie]

Awesome video! Yea just like the v12 high speed I bet you can push past the firmware tilt and beeps by a lot but it’s not comfortable. I’m still really sad about the axle bolts shearing. I really wanted the v13 to pull through.

I have crashed and I understand the problem with going fast it's scary. Going 25mph on a euc may seem slow in a car but on a euc it feels like you are falling 25mph towards pavement

[@astambl]

Awesome work man

[@InsanitiesBrother]

As someone who rides motorbikes, I can confirm. An EUC is to a bike, what a bike is to a car. It's a whole extra dimension of freedom. I say this as someone who routinely used to clock 150mph+ on idiot runs. EUC is just more fun.

[@Txgsync]

You never waste 25 minutes of my life. You waste 12.5 because I always watch double speed :)

[@EUCme]

Hi Hsiang. Love your content. Two Questions: How accurate is the speed information on the video? My understanding is that manufacturers pad the displayed speed. Also, what do you believe is the first and second fastest EUC currently available as of June 2024? Thanks.

[@GeorgeWaltzer]

I feel your breath and fear! You were awesome! It was very pricey a year ago, but now I am contempting... Should I do the move? (I had monster, monster pro and Abrams) or I should just give up and jump de bandwagon of 16" wheels, like patton, v14 ?

[@kaygee1623]

Nice Video as always, The Orator.............🙌🙌

[@Rocksaplenty]

I think that by changing your aero profile you totally could have hit it! Most of what it fights is its own internal abilities, plus our forward profile. With a sorta longboard looking pose, you can go about 4-6 mph faster on Gotway/Begode 3kw motors, not so sure on innmotion. About to pick this wheel up this week!

You took it up to 52MPH that was good alone, I took my Sherman only up until 43MPH great job

[@soonny002]

You can ride back to the future if you hit 88mph!

[@lensref]

I see that this was the v13 from the New York demo rides where we had seen a video from another creator where we heard discussion that the original pedals had broken. Indeed, I see both original and v12 aftermarket pedals on this wheel. Is there any information you can share on what happened to the original pedals and how exactly they broke?

[@OWGAC]

Ronin was the one who was riding when the pedal broke, so I don't really have the detail. the only thing I know is that it wasn't high speed and the pedal snapped. but hopefully he'll talk about it in his video.

[@lensref]

@@OWGAC Thanks much, I hope more information about this comes out as that is a very unexpected and concerning type of failure.

The Master Pro, RS 134v and possibly the Sherman S with the High speed mode on are wheels that are capable of 60mph, The EX30 I'm not sure as it's just getting in the hands of riders

[@OWGAC]

I think the sherman S even with the high speed mod beeps at 50mph, 60mph is "feasible" but very risky

New York looks very empty compared to my place, we dont have bike lanes and EUC are maxed at 6km/h since you can only use sidewalk. Thats why owning E motorcycle are better since you can use it without speed limit or E bike if you want maxed up at 34 km/h. I still want Z 6/10 since its the only EUC that handle well at low speed and hope they release another secret batch this year.

[@OWGAC]

yes we do count ourself lucky that euc are not much regulated here in NYC!

[@yulusleonard985]

@@OWGAC It still rather unregulated since nobody will stop and if they do it only ended up with fines but you will 100% die if you use it on our roads. Its 3-4 times more crowded than in your area and people already start to complain about bike and scooter added to the traffic.

Even though you’re a failure, your videos never disappoint. Great stuff!

[@Loqque]

if Escooters are capable of reaching 60+ mph, its a matter of time before so is EUC. Technology race never stops.

[@legyroquoi]

As the french KZbinr Bonheur sur Seine sais about the v13, it's harder and harder to see the micromobility aspect with the newest faster wheels.. they become heavier and made to compete with motorcycle and a moto is not really considered micro... I love the idea of the v13, but I would only ride it under 50kmh, so maybe not suitable for my use. I'm still using my 18xl very often, which is still the best overall wheel ever made , small, light, portable, decent speed (yes, 40kmh is decent in my opinion) Do you know people in NY that are NOT speed demons or is the majority are riding at cars speed?? I often wonder.. Cheers.

Did you set your pedal softness to %100? Marty and dawn and Roger found out that the softness setting was kinda setup backwards. %100 is the stiffest pedal. %0 is the softest pedals. Soft, meaning the pedals tilt extremely on %0.

[@JuggaloNY]

Great video homie. But we need Chooch back! Inmotion needs to understand this. As somebody in the market, the fact that they took Chooch out of the game, Makes it that I can't trust anyone's review regarding Inmotion as we know they will yank the wheel away if you're too honest about their wheels. That being said I think you did a good job getting the important information across. But imo to newbies, they're going to miss important safety things.

[@ericgarst7882]

My first real unicycle!(first one was a cheap plastic one as a kid kzbin.infoUgkx4e2fa6x27dF7shCelntq0ZIKt4N0jELI I never learned to ride)So, this is a true learner, and for a C note, exactly what was needed. After a few weeks, I'm able to easily ride up and down the street. The Good: Solid frame. Has absorbed numerous spills through learning and still solid. Look - great looks, after 6 weeks of bashing Weight - it's really all tire, but as I fall I can easily grab the seat so it doesn't slam the ground. Size - Very adjustable. I'm 6', 33" inseam. I put it mostly up, but could go a bit higher if I needed to. The Bad: Not sure if it's out of the norm, but seat got scraped up quickly. Pedals - they are a bit uncomfortable and I can't get the right feel on my feet. But, they are solid and haven't been damaged at all as I've seen in reviews on other cycle's.- To address one comment about the seat connection not straight. Huh? Seat is on a round pole, you just turn it and it's straight. Either of the bad I expected to replace once I improved. I'd recommend to anyone else in the learning phase.

wear a dolphin suit next time like the speed swimmers, maybe that will give you your extra few MPH on the top end. you could also try wearing a wind tunnel proven helmet, like my Bonehead Dynamic (skydiving helmet, but whatevs), which should allow you to slip pretty nice in the air along with your dolphin suit. Also arms forward probably scrubbed a bit of speed off you as well, again, from aerodynamics...if you went 51 with all that against you, I think you should have hit the 55 limiter no problem.
