PowerKnobz - Ultimate Electric Unicycle Pads?

[@MathieuTechMoto]

Since i've tried Powerknobz a few months ago, i never used conventionnal front pads again

[@leetNightshade]

I believe one of the selling points of these pads for advanced riders is knees over toes acceleration. Instead of needing to lean your entire upper body forward, you can keep your upper body relatively over your wheel and lean forward knees first. Caveat you need strong legs and very durable knees. I've been meaning to try to find footage of the PowerKnobz racers to see if any of them leverage knees over toes to their advantage, or if it's not something for high performance riding. I mention it since you throwing on a shin pad defeats this purpose. I'm curious how a knees over toes rider does on steep inclines. I do not recommend people try knees over toes without progressively bulletproofing your knees/legs first. Cheers, thanks for sharing feedback on these! I've been eyeing them with curiosity.

[@whatswheelygood]

Exactly this, no unstable banana leans. Just a nice stable controllable stance. I don't race but I commute about 40 miles a day on the v13 and the powerknobs let you use more of your legs as leverage more consistently than a shin pad. I usually have mine pretty loose and then lift my dominant heel to lock the foot in to the knob and pedal and then use the knob as a leverage point when I need hard acceleration.

[@michaelganshin2017]

@@whatswheelygood also are your feet no longer feeling cramped after few miles of constant riding?

[@whatswheelygood]

@@michaelganshin2017 not at all, I regularly do 30-45 mi rides at high speeds and the knobs make it easier for sure.

[@kaijjukaijju2080]

Good review, I have a set of these as well. Only part I think you forgot to talk about is the seated riding with powerknobs. I found that as a front pad rider, seated riding requires a lot of fiddling with the powerknobs to get the feel right and if you ride a smaller wheel and require your foot to bend up, your heel lock will get in the way. Thanks Mr. Wrong Way for featuring these!

[@space.youtube]

I think he did hit on how much easier seat riding is.

[@CarsonMoncur]

I have a set of the og powerknobz on my Master and they’ve been great. Commuting, off-roading, seated riding, and now some jumps and they’ve handled it all just fine. Get a used set on the cheap if the price is too steep but either way you can’t go wrong.

[@CarsonMoncur]

Also, I have to put in a good word for the customer service experience with Powerknobz. They responded quickly to emails and all my questions were answered. Which currently beats the other pad manufacturers I’ve dealt with.😅 It’s a small thing but I appreciate businesses who go the extra mile for their customers

[@whatswheelygood]

I love my powerknobz, I rode for about 4000 miles on the v12 padless then tried shin pads and they never felt right. Then I got my powerknobz and they clicked immediately. I now have about 4000 miles on my sus delete v13 with powerknobz and I would never go back on a big wheel. Thanks for the vid

[@michaelganshin2017]

Woah, got the same v12 and thinking about buying these. Which one you got? What type of riding do you do? Any jumps?

[@whatswheelygood]

@@michaelganshin2017 I can't remember what they are called but I got a big pair up front on my v13, I don't have em on my V12 since I don't ride it much anymore but they are excellent for not getting bounced out of your pedals as well as the additional control. I commute at high speed on roads (see my channel to see me doin 40 on a padless V12) I would recommend not jumping on a v12 much unless you keep your tire pressure really high. Even then it's not really a jump wheel. Ride safe ❤️

[@stevenmichaelis]

I came here to see if you were talking about Powerknobz, and heres a full review. Sweet!

[@xaviergoudreault6572]

They’re made here in Montreal by a local rider, everyone in town now runs powerknobz , including me..

[@ligu0rien]

To cut them defeats the purpose of the big ass velcro patch. But probably still holds better cut than a bunch of options out there. I ride the Fusion with steel toe work boots on my Lynx 👌

[@TheSkyHive]

52 seconds in and I am sold!

[@EUCme]

Wrong Way, I want to thank you and @ElectrifiedRider for helping me understand PowerKnobz. PowerKnobz offers several options and I couldn't figure out what I was looking at, what the differences were, what I would get, or fundamental placement. This video helps so much. I used your code and I bought two pair of the 2 Piece Voidcore Prime V2 full pad kit (no Powercore). ~maverick 😀

[@mr_wrongway]

Cheers mate 🏆 I hope you’ll enjoy them!

[@misubisu]

Another excellent review... that covered all the bases 🥰

[@simteksplays]

I've got the cohedron with the brake extension on my Falcon and it's a bit overkill, which I absolutely love. On a wheel that tiny I don't find myself missing the shin pad of the stock pads at all. I feel very in control and able to manipulate the Falcon however I see fit. After making a fairing for some extra surface area, I feel very locked in. That being said, these are my first set of aftermarket pads so I really don't have a frame of reference to other styles other than the stock pads.

[@Killpocalips]

Little bit annoyed that I paid extra for expedited shipping and they sent them standard shipping. STILL waiting on my order even thou they charged my credit card the day after I ordered them and then didn't ship them for two weeks with the wrong shipping.

[@CaptainJacksIsland]

To me, pads are best as indicators so you know where your body is in relation to the wheel, and to keep you from falling over if you lean too far forward or back. Too many people use them as crutches to get leverage on their wheel, rather than learning proper body positioning. These pads give a little extra freedom, so I'm sure they'll scare people who've relied on other pads to make up for poor technique.

[@HungrySpinz]

8:44 and that is why it's better for the flat shaped hum block

[@alonzohappnze375]

Great video! I'm undecided on purchasing a set. This video was helpful. They look awesome and sturdy. Question...are you able to close your pedals? I like to close my pedals when I'm walking through the markets.

[@avatarKuza]

They close about 45 degrees only

[@mohammadomari]

I don't know if something's wrong with the ones I received or if they've changed the velco quality. I ordered mine after watching this review but the velco on mine is really bad, they come off the wheel way easier than my Grizzala pads

[@stephenj2014]

Meanwhile I've been riding my EX30 with the stock pads since I got it a year ago lol

[@MAD.IN.LowerSaxony]

Which one of the knobz for a kingsong s18?

[@xaviergoudreault6572]

S18 has no surface for pads, the only ones I’m aware that fit are the Clark pads especially for the s18

[@MrTheJoem]

Or get one of the one piece variants. Should work fine.

[@dagainsta6253]

Vs grizzlas big pads ??

[@lililililililili8667]

Can you buy the STL files?

[@jingbuger700]

[@mr_wrongway]

Cheers!

[@NemoEUC]

I printed these, but they're too big and wide (what she said), making it awkward to throw your leg over and uncomfortable for seated riding. The front pad of the Cohedron has a gap between the pad and Velcro, causing it to come loose during hard acceleration. I wouldn't recommend the Cohedron for the Lynx-it doesn't fit comfortably due to limited space.

[@wheatdevon]

[@MrTheJoem]

Anyone else have issues with the velcro on their Powerknobs pads, or just me?

[@mohammadomari]

Yes, I just got mine and the velcro quality is really bad, definitely not like what Adam is showing in this video, not sure if they've changed their velco to cheaper quality ones. The velcro on my Grizzla pads is 10X stronger

[@theoneondonlyeverette]

Mine stick like glue

[@MrTheJoem]

When did yu get them? I recently got another set that stick much better, but they still come loose when I need them. I struggle to get my Grizzlas off at all.

[@theoneondonlyeverette]

@@MrTheJoem I've had them for over a year now.

[@stealtherider3008]

Good video!

[@dtsubera]

So many words about seated riding with those fusion knobs but no examples? It’s not only about your knees. Even on stock lynx jump pads that are much smaller you should move your leg to the side while riding seated otherwise you can not lift your heel. And without lifting your heel your ankle is bended too much into unnatural and even painful way. Do you really keep your heel grounded flat on the pedal while riding seated on the wheel?

[@mr_wrongway]

Yeah I should’ve included a clip. I just didn’t have anyone record me ride seated haha. My mistake

Not even gonna watch this. I am about 6,000 miles (9,700 km) into my EUC journey. And, I am on my 3rd wheel. My first 2 wheels were wheels Wrongway recommended. My 3rd wheel is a wheel he does not recommend. ... As I look over my riding gear, at this moment, I have discarded every item ( and there were several items ) that Wrongway recommended. All those items have been donated to my local Goodwill store. And, this 3rd wheel I am riding is "by far" the best wheel I've owned (best for me). I gave away the first wheel. I've tried to sell the second wheel for one/sixth of what I paid for it, but I am still storing it ... Take what Wrongway recommends with a grain of salt. ... Watch at least 5-or-6 different EUC reviewers. ... You are on your own journey. Beware of the used-car salesman that is Wrongway. ... I have literally spent 1,000's of dollars following Wrongways advice, and I honestly do not use a single item he recommended at this point in my journey. ... Good journey to each of you. "Question everything. Think for yourself."

[@eslachance]

Sounds like Adam is living rent free in your brain if you feel like you have to take time out of your day to comment on every video he makes with a long winded whiny paragraph about how you're not happy about what your purchases. You're right - people should definitely make their own decisions based on their own research, but also, people should own up to their own mistakes and take responsibilities for your actions. Sounds like you are trying to avoid that by blaming Adam for your own lacks in judgement!

[@GunnrMan]

Can’t speak on the other things, but I myself own Powerknobz and have had them for the past 500 miles. They are definitely the endgame in pads for me. They’re more of a do it all pad, less restriction while still giving leverage needed for any terrain. Your call at the end of the day, thought maybe my input would be appreciated
