BETTER THAN AN E-BIKE? EXTREME OFFROADING (GOTWAY ELECTRIC UNICYCLE)

[@Goldarrow.89]

lmao @ 3:01 started sounding like the old days putting coke cans on my bike to make it sound like a dirtbike

[@supercurioTube]

You're so so good at falling. I mean falling the right way, rolling over, not hitting your wrist/elbow/shoulder, not breaking any bone, all that while preserving your camera! It's truly impressive!

[@kannonbrixton9771]

a tip: you can watch movies on Flixzone. Been using it for watching a lot of movies during the lockdown.

[@zahirzavier1780]

@Kannon Brixton yup, been watching on Flixzone} for since december myself :)

[@westleyben6980]

@Kannon Brixton yup, been using flixzone} for months myself :D

[@nashmartin5197]

Super video! I applauded for $10.00 👏👏👏

[@choochtech]

Dude thank you so much! This helps out big time right now. I sincerely appreciate that!

[@euc_sharkman]

Love the idea of being able to adjust pedal heights for future wheels for road and trail riding, or even having different heights for each side for oval tracks. That would be a game changer.

[@joekershner117]

Chooch! I got a wowgo 3x electric skateboard today in the mail it's not an euc but it's a super fun PEV!

[@a.d.h.dn3d461]

It's about time you got hip to off-roading tire bro! Haha I knew you would love it! I love my shinko 244 tire and spiked pedals on my MSP-HT!

[@MikieSWE]

Where I like to be. your trails are awesome. Here still getting out of the winter so everything is slushy ftm. Just loved the video. That tire have to be tested, for sure.. cheers. :)

[@urthpainter]

I think there will be smart EUC suspension at some point - that moves the pedals, in real time, with road conditions (using an array of drone type camera sensors on wheel). I figure suspension like this would allow a custom choice of pedal height, within a certain margin. this could also allow for a staggered pedal height, like you suggested for rolling around a track. I rode my S18 around with the right pedal higher than the left - I was trying all pedal positions and figured why not? I didn't hate it - made for an interesting ride. I did end up just putting both S18 pedals at the highest position for max ground clearance

[@marksac5080]

Don't know if you noticed but just as you hit those ruts in the road before you tumbled... a truck drove by and the ruts were in the trucks shadow. Looks like the shadow made it difficult to judge the actual depth of the ruts. I've had a few close calls hauling ass going under roadway over passes, you are in the shadows you think you see a dark patch that's flat but it's really a frikin' pot hole. I guess that's how we learn to stay focused.

[@oldretireddude]

Do you think that a mud/snow scraper frame wrapping around the back of the tire, would be of value? Something that would keep the thickness of the debris building on the tire to a thickness less than the gaps between the tire and housing.

[@choochtech]

yes, I think it is an absolutely brilliant idea!

[@oldretireddude]

@@choochtech I was watching a OneWheel video the other day and they rode them through slush and snow then stopped riding long enough that the wheels froze up and the couldn't continue.

[@urthpainter]

6:55 - really impressive that clean, stuck landing at 7:00

[@gareth5000]

Great work as usual Chooch.

[@adventureswithtbird8087]

Look at how much cleaner Fort Collins says then Denver. There’s trash everywhere in Denver.

[@choochtech]

absolutely it's incredible what a city can do when it's not run by blatant backward politicians

[@rayge]

Oh snap! That crash! That's why gear is so important. Question : how fast were you going at 6:20? Looks like 30+

[@Biketouring]

Enjoyed the video! Keep it up :)

[@NoProGoPronto]

Damn! Where did all of the snow go? It seemed like just a week ago you were riding in a blizzard. LOL! Either way, you are impressive 🤙🏼😁

[@choochtech]

Coloardo weather is normal to be snowing and the next day warm. Last year it was 95 outside and we got snow the very next morning

[@robertnaylor6119]

That looks like an instant ticket to the E.R.

[@caseyodonnell55]

Dude I'm sold I gotta try one of these out.

[@AlpineDividends]

So cool man. I want one

[@HeKpoMaHcep]

You have a lot of links, but I do not see a link to this reflective jacket in this video.

[@marksac5080]

the amazon link to the tire does not work. can you repost link, thanks for the great review.

[@choochtech]

yea it may be sold out

[@thuggooch1776]

Hey Chooch I love the handle lol. I've been known as "Thuggooch" myself! Love the videos man. I've never considered one of these but because of you the gearz are turning. What is your opinion on the One Wheel XR?

[@igorgoga7985]

lazy rolling protection ok? and level 2 is better?

[@choochtech]

yes its surprisingly phenomenal for this type of riding, prevents cuts scrapes and bruises!

[@nobiden3134]

Thats probably a harder tire? Can ya lower pressure a bit? Seems to slow down wobbles...

[@choochtech]

Yea it needed to be a little lower. It was a little to solid

[@nobiden3134]

@@choochtech your videos are my favorite.. I live in northern California in the mountains. Just got a V11.. you make me want a MS pro.. im looking at the kenda 270 dual sport tire. Nice lean radius.

[@Ronin_Ryder]

Nice video

[@Dirty-D]

I think you need more keys on your belt. Lol

[@bobrob8827]

So if I actually went about buying my first wheel I’m deciding between the king song 16x and the s18 with the suspension which would y’all choose even if you weren’t new to riding and wanted the best between the two which would you choose?

[@bobrob8827]

@@grb1969 Yeah you make a good point, but I guess my plan was to buy a protective cover while I’m learning hopefully it would do enough to protect it I’d think.

[@urthpainter]

imo - between those two wheels, I'd go 16x. it has a lot more battery and range, and more battery also means a longer time spent in the 'safe zone' where you can get max performance from the wheel. 16x is many generations into manufacturing, and has less moving parts that can go wrong. It is very easy to transition from a non-suspension wheel to a suspension wheel. It is not easy to transition the other way around. Lastly - I own a S18, and while I like it, I do not consider it a performance wheel. It's battery is too small to ride it hard for more than 15 miles, then you really gotta back off (below 50% battery). The 16x can easily double that range before having to ride with more caution at low battery. While I do not own a 16X, I started on the 18XL - and it has similar ability to the 16X with the same motor and battery size. I went 18XL as more of a road cruiser, where as the 16X is a better off road wheel with the wider tire and more available torque.

[@flemball797]

Like Hsiang said, your most important safety gear is between your ears,

[@zaxmaxlax]

Crash at 5:36

[@rainbowwarpig3536]

Yup, that just about raps it up.

[@artgreg2296]

People never fall from that thing? And what happen if they fall at high speed?

[@choochtech]

yes, but same as anything else if it's fun enough like this is you learn from that mistake don't do it again and improve. Same with skiing, biking, skateboarding. driving or even walking.

[@artgreg2296]

@@choochtech I need to try this thing before saying if I feel that could put me more in trouble if i fall at high speed from it than an derestricted ebike

[@choochtech]

@@artgreg2296 wrist guards knee pads and a helmet. a major benefit is you can wear the best gloves and wrist guards you want and finger dexterity is no problem. no throttle or remote clutch or brakes to fool with. Ine guy made pvc pip protectors that fully cover his arms for hard trail riding lol

[@dankehrig3419]

Hey man would you suggest a noob getting a decent used Electric unicycle or buy new? And if used where’s the best place to find them? Not Facebook there’s literally one in CO. Craigslist you can forget about too. There seems to be a flood of new stuff but no ones selling??? Anyway thnx for the great videos

[@choochtech]

I would suggest the black 420wh kingsong 14d we have at ewheels right now. I had a unicycle much slower and had a ton of fun with it. I think starting slow with a 14 d or 16s new will satisfy you for a long time, you can beat them up like crazy and they will keep going. Getting something brand new for under 1k is also nice

[@choochtech]

only buy used if you live somewhere like nyc or LA where you got options because shipping these things is ridiculous unless you have a company deal with a shipper like fedex.

[@dankehrig3419]

@@choochtech thnx, there’s some awesome riding/trails on the western slope! Fruita, Grand Mesa, Palisade. Then you hit Moab, just another couple hrs. And thnx again!

[@benjaminbbrown]

Is this MSX your main off-roading tire these days? I'm considering an RS High Torque or a V11 - with an interest in off roading. I found the RS to be more wobbly than the MSX I rode a few months ago. Friend recommends a Sherman. Maybe I should be looking at an S18? Who knows. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[@khakimzhanmiras]

Needs a bigger wheel. Higher foot pegs and better off-road.

[@davidrossmiller8349]

May be better then a ebike to you I will stick to my Sondors fold X fat tire.

[@philipcabezas4522]

Is this a good work out?

[@choochtech]

yes, but you gotta ride it hard and not just like zombie

[@juki0h391]

I would say the EUC is the most versatile PEV out there. You can do so many things with it, like a Jack of all Trades.

[@TheseusMinor]

Lord baby Jesus, please send Chooch a Begode EX to review so we can get a unique perspective 🙏

[@TheseusMinor]

Thank you Jesus!! Well, it's an EX.N 😂

[@Kay0Bot]

I don't if it's better then eMTB. Definitely more convient to take to areas. A 1000w motor eMTB rips up and down trails and capable for road riding. The way you ride EUC is a inspiration!

Better than ebike? For shopping - sure.

[@ettoreUKP]

@@choochtech I like your movies, you're shredding nicely. But capable ebike rider is able to do so much more up and downhill... I have MSX, assisted ebike, had 13kW ebike too, so I am well informed.

No I don't know... ya know?

Love your videos. A suggestion, can you turn down the original audio because the wind noise drowns out your narration.

[@choochtech]

yea man, appreciate the feedback!

[@noelxxx1007]

Test drive dummy. Thanks for taking the fall for us, waiting for your final judgement " (1) EUC that rules them all"

[@dd-ow6pe]

i like your ebike alot.. but let me ask your a serious question, i'm interested in your answer.. what kinda of society will we have if hundreds or thousands of people are driving are so chaotically.. your are willing to bring motocross to the public park where people are seeking a peaceful walks .. you are inspiring new tech or chaotic transport? .. you haven't thought about it?.. you'll wait till Gov't post signs everywhere at public school areas.. saying no ebike riding.. this is a serious question or take it as a joke and blow it off.

[@whitecloudmountainminnowpr6353]

Im not going to watch this because you are wearing safety equipment 😳. I did see some guy fly past me on one of these today tho. I was on a public e scooter and he flew past me like a glorious angle lol. But he was a real bro he was riding it in the streets with no helmet and no fucks givin.
