Mten4 an insane combo of SIZE and SPEED!!

[@dennisowenby1208]

I’m 52 and got this wheel about a month ago. Took it to a trip to Chicago and it zipped me all around the city and suburbs. I don’t push the speed too much because I frankly just need to keep getting more confident and stronger in my skills. I live in the mountains of NC and this thing takes me everywhere I want to go with ease. Steep hills, trails, almost anywhere. My biggest challenge is mount and dismount. I’m not horrible at it, but I’m not super graceful either. Anyway, for me, it’s a great wheel. Super portable and more capable than I am.

52 huh? When did you start riding? I really want to give it a try and I'm 51 heading toward 52 myself. Are you a former skateboarder or anything like that which would have made it easier for you? I would just hate to put $1000 on a wheel and then end up selling it because it just too hard or too frustrating. Thanks for any feedback you may have.

@@MichaelHollandOne My kids got two Inmotion V5Fs about five years ago. So I learned to ride some with them. I will say it seems really difficult until all of a sudden I understood what to do. There is much better info online these days. I’m not a super confident rider. I don’t take risks like I would back in the day. They are fun but a learning curve is going to have to be overcome. I agree. It’s a lot to spend for a happiness risk. I haven’t ridden in about 3 years, but it came back pretty quick. This wheel is a little different than bigger ones. But not in a bad way. It’s much easier to ride slow in heavily crowded areas.

Love the mten4. You describe many great reasons everyone should have a mini wheel! The 40T cell is rated 35a discharge vs 9.8a on the 50E. The 300wh 20S1P 40T would have a higher discharge rating than the 750wh 20S2P 50E. 20 less cells is a 3lbs weight savings. I am 220lbs and get 12-15km range on the mten4s (300wh 40T).

[@EUCXR]

I love my mten4 i have it hooked up with a pmt street tire, spiked pedals, russian cushion pads and a God mod for safety. I ride my mten 4 everyday around the bronx. I even took it on a 30 mile trip and it worked like a dream 1000 miles later and Iris is running like a dream. Top speed before a pedal dip for new at 190 pounds is 28mph going up hill so power is there just add a Godmod to it and it's great paired with the 50e cells

I’ve got 170 on mine. Hard to imagine a better way to begin with the EUC journey. I have the 300 watt and definitely want more range. If inmotion would offer something like this, just an instant yes.

[@Dennymolv]

Love this wheel. The first wheel I owned was the Mten3. I quickly graduated to the 16X but I have always had a fondness for the form factor and have the MTen Mini on pre order. I bought the MTen4 when it was released and ride it every day! I also own the ShermanS, Apollo Phantom, and Roadrunner Pro but the one I ride the most is the Mten!

[@georgieman1910]

I will never understand why people think mten3 and mten4 are too small and too difficult to ride compared with a much larger wheel. Boggles my mind. I learned to ride EUCs with the mten3. Everything from mounting, balancing, turning, carving, pendulum idling, etc. When you have a small wheel it's very easy to learn all of that because it is a much much lighter and agile wheel. Once I got the hang of it, the transition to V12HT or Sherman was a shock to me. These are gigantic and bulky between the legs. All the agility I enjoyed like turning on a dime was significantly stunted. Sure the huge wheel helps negate defects on the road and make things much more stable but if you ride the mten4 responsibly and at the prescribed speed it was meant to be ridden, you should never have any issues. I reach for the mten4 over 90% of the time over my other wheels and that's a testament to how practical it is.

[@OWGAC]

it is a little bit trickier to mount and dismount with how short these wheel is, but I def agree that once you get on its easier to actually learn how to ride because its easier to "micro-adjust" to keep your balance.

[@georgieman1910]

@@OWGAC Yeah it's all or nothing when you get on or off. But I'll give you one better. I don't even dismount from the Mten4 (or any EUC) for that matter now. I like to hold onto a light pole, a car, a fire hydrant, etc. Especially with it being so small it's a hassle to do that and supporting yourself saves a lot of time.

[@Killpocalips]

I have the 300wh, got it as my first wheel early this year. Was riding to/from work around 15mi round trip 5 days a week. The 300wh has a really hard time doing the 25mph that it says that it will. I have mine set to tiltback at 19mph and I'd ride the tiltback the entire 7mi. Thing bassically lives in my trunk of my car now so whenever I have to drive I always have a wheel with me. If I'm somewhere why drive across the street or down the block to the next stop. It's perfect for that so I would recommend it to a rider who has anxiety when away from their wheel. That being said I rode it to work 6+ months, its got 1600mi on the clock, it's a capable wheel. I ride a mini bull to work now and it's great.

[@OWGAC]

nice! happy to hear, just curious, what sort of range are you getting out of the 300wh pack??

[@Killpocalips]

@@OWGAC only about 10-12mi but that was pushing it hard. They let me charge at work so I never got the opportunity to try making it there and back (14.8mi) but I imagine it would make it about 15mi if you were conservative because it'd be at 3/5 bars when I'd plug it in at work.

Now I’m 40lbs lighter and can hit 25 and only on fresh charge. Also without the extra lbs I’m getting 19 miles mpc. I didn’t list to you either about getting for my first. I mean price obviously plays the bigger part when it comes something I’d never even tried. I could ride manual unicycles so I figured it would be something close but, that really are nothing alike!

I’m 76 and a “scooter-head”. My fav scooter in my collection, is the OG DT Storm. I bought that machine because I live 2 flights of stairs UP, and after removing the battery AND using a, REALLY cool SLING, I can, gruntingly, transport it. I’m thinking of going to an EUC because my stairs STEPS are spaced very close together. I’m thinking I can push the wheel, up these stairs. I’m thinking that the KS S16 will fit the bill, as a “grocery-getter”. For crazy fun, I’ll use the STORM. Thoughts?😊

[@OWGAC]

you can push a wheel up stairs but you need a grippy tire (offroad) and a grippy stair surface (wood bad) its easier with larger diameter wheels 18 inch + and you probably won't be able to do it with th s16, but then again that wheel is light so you can simply carry it up probably.

Not having ridden any other EUCs, I purchased the MTEN4. I ride Onewheels proficiently, and skateboards awkwardly. Mounting the MTEN4 is the hardest part. Once you're up and running, the wobbles will get you, but you learn where they happen. When comparing the amount of mileage ridden and proficiency between the MTEN4 and the Onewheel, they're pretty much on par. The MTEN4 may need a little more time (miles) to learn. The skateboard, on the other hand is in a league of it's own, as far as time needed on the board before becoming proficient.

Begode should consider keeping the same battery capacity, upgrading to 134V, and suspension in the next version Mten. The current model is marketed with a top speed of 28 MPH. With speed correction it will cutout at GPS 25 MPH. To ensure optimal performance and safety, it’s best to maintain speeds below 22 MPH with the speed correction.

[@OWGAC]

well, they'll have to do 100v first! I doubt they'll put a 134v since the component cost for higher voltage will likely push the price up and being relatively cheap is a huge plus for this wheel. But at higher speed it is pretty sketchy cuz of its tiny wheel so I am not sure how practical a 134v mten5 would be!

The edges are rough and can easily catch and injure your hands. Additionally, the transparent cover arrived with permanent, glue-like stains that necessitated a complicated replacement involving disassembly.
