VETERAN PATTON DURABILITY TEST

[@CopperSteed]

Anyone else obsessed with watching Adam's euc content? It's better then the best OF out there and it's free! Keep it up, sir! Best euc content creator and advocate!

[@mr_wrongway]

Lololol thank you :D

[@CopperSteed]

@@mr_wrongway it was your videos I watched to educate myself. Wife wouldn't allow me to get an S22 Pro, in case I didn't like the sport. 500 miles later on a 14S and I think I've convinced her that I'm truly into riding euc. Got my eyes on the V14, hopefully I'm selected as a product tester. 🤞

[@ragon747]

Yes, Adam is the best euc content maker

Better than of , what are you watching Adam for ? He is a hunk but it’s really a different genre haha .

[@milordas]

11:12 its Heidenau K38 tire, cant find K34.. and interesting does Heidenau 90/90-12 K58 Snowtex will fit this wheel?

[@sek3ymisek3ymi]

Adam this is another Adam . I turned my rebound all the way down , that was a great tip . It took away the excess bounce and I could connect with the wheel like my begode exn . Also I kept the front bumper but sawed off the toe clip . I put the kinetic pads and still have the front bumper and it all Looks clean . Peace brother appreciate you big time ! 💪

[@TaiLegend]

The trolley handle B roll shot was hilarious

[@yusufcanaktas6929]

I am "Extreme"ly hyped for your upcoming reviews :)

[@thetastefultoastie6077]

I'm looking forward to new "Adventure"s

[@EclecticWizard6]

Got a Patton for a first wheel and have been loving it. Super comfortable suspension, tons of torque and has given me confidence hopping around and bonking stuff and on trails and just learned to do stairs. Not looking forward to maintenance though.

[@CopperSteed]

So. Many. Screws.

[@EclecticWizard6]

@@CopperSteed for real it's like the Wii of EUCs

[@milordas]

depends on what wheel you rode before :) as for me needs to get used to it from KS 16s as is more then double in weight and as much as higher pedals

[@YourAubsome]

@2:55 I thought you were experienced at aligning things that require a tight fit? 😉

[@mr_wrongway]

Lololol Patton needed more foreplay or lube ;p

[@KaizenOz]

Wish the turn signals could be turned off

[@mathieucharroisaerialprodu6161]

How do you like then Heidenau K38 on the Patton, is it also good offroad?

[@oldretireddude]

I cut a piece of rubber tube 4"lg that is similar size to the charge cable, slit it along its 4" length and placed it over the charge cable, right up against the cable connector. This extra stiffness has made plugging in a non issue.

[@OneWheelTwoSkis]

Stock tire is great offroad, which is where this wheel should be ridden =)

[@SwitchUpYt]

Could you make a very thin rubber style sleeve to go over suspension before you screw in to remove the wiggle?

[@mr_wrongway]

I’ll first try to use a different clamp and if that doesn’t help I’ll try squeezing something in ✅✌️ thanks for the idea!

[@BruceWayne15325]

Which commuter EUC would you guys recommend that is water resistant, has sturdy construction, and allows for easy tire change (or is tubeless)? I'm not super mechanically inclined, and I always tend to have parts left over when I take things apart like this. I am impressed with the Patton otherwise though.

[@aammdd706]

MORE PATTON CONTENT MOARRRRR

[@gritred5500]

A lot of work. Thanks!

[@oldretireddude]

I really enjoy your reviews. I have to say that as a new Patton owner, a heavy weight urban street carver, I totally disagree with your criticism of the stock spiked footpads. I find them to be perfect, I can't imagine how my foot could be stuck any tighter to the wheel.

[@TheDownloader86]

Hey Adam, do you plan to test Begode Extreme? It has smart BMS and proper sealing, not like this one :D

[@mr_wrongway]

YES

[@vince7245]

​@@mr_wrongwayThat's great news, the Extreme is the first Begode wheel I may actually consider, and personally, I do value your opinion. I'm also looking forward to hearing more about what you think of the Patton, as that or the Extreme may well be an option for me at some point in the future.

[@gavinzooms]

How tight did you torque the suspension clamp bolts? I actually stripped mine from overtightening :(

[@extremedv6219]

Adam, you dropped reviews of Begode wheels right at the wrong time just before the excellent ex30 was released. This wheel is next level for Begode as you most probably well know, and the performance is something else... the ebc Mini and now the extreme are another two high-quality wheels, I don't know how the euc content creator can ever drop begode.. Just madness! I get with the quality, but no one was ever going to Begode to improve apart from themselves, but they have, and your reviews are excellent, so please bite the bullet and start reviewing Begode again!

[@mr_wrongway]

I made an announcement that it’s for half a year. I’ll be checking the Extreme out and it will be on my way soon! Biting bullets is bad for my teeth, won’t do that ;p

[@Richplaceholder]

If you do off road the tire is amazing. High torque and loads of grip. My patton is constantly drenched in mud, im more concerned with water tightness when cleaning it off.

[@jansvoboda9778]

My version patton not have removable fron "bumpers" is now integrated like extra battery holder!

[@kenspaceman3938]

Love these teardown vids.👍

[@BnanaMan]

can you provide a link to the tire pls, i cant seem to find it

[@tlgrimmy]

Thanks for all of the great videos! I'm about to purchase my first trail wheel with suspension and the Patton and the V14 are both on the short list for me. This would Max out my budget, so the Lynx is something I can't do financially at this point. In this price range, would you recommend the Patton over other wheels, or would you go another way? Really looking for a nimble, yet stable and comfortable dual-purpose wheel that can do great offroad and still do well on road. I'm not a speed demon, so the stability and nimble attributes rank higher for me. Would love to hear your opinion:)

[@mikeadventures335]

Hi! What's the vibration at the beginning of the video? My V8F did it too. It's worrying!

[@luwn00bz]

It comes when the motor is somehow loose compared to the motherboard. Perhaps on V8F loose motherboard screws or then loose 4 screws holding the plastic on the hangers.

[@ДмитрийЧайка-р6у]

Hey! So 90/90-12 is ok for Patton? it's hard to find 80/90-12 anywhere..

[@Phil4222]

I tried to share a link for a 3d print that solves the plug issue. Its on printables. Idk if it was deleted or blocked by KZbin.

[@oliverer3]

If the form factor and volume measurements are anything to go by that's no beeper those tend to be marketed as piezo sirens/buzzer sirens. Over 100dB is lunacy for a basic auditory alert. Imagine if that thing ever got stuck on... I might add a parallel resistor to mine when I get it, don't want my neighbors complaining.

[@Corn8Bit]

A parallel resistor is not what you want, and would allow more current through. You mean add a resistor in series. Not trying to be a dick but hoping to save you some work

[@electricguy109]

Wow, we could feel your passion for this wheel… Overall, you seem to be mitigated. I do follow you on IG and my guess is that the V13 has stolen your heart ;-) !

[@mr_wrongway]

Yeah I’m a bit tired of the issues on this wheel :/ I hate to love the V13 😂

[@gingerdude94]

The right way to do a teardown

[@bobelminero1427]

What happened at 6:49?!?! How the heck does the battery fall off?! Great wheel ❤

[@oliverer3]

Hitting the bottom of the case against something hard and cracking it then all it takes is a speed bumb and it will fall out of the bottom. Would take a very specific kind of crash to hit it there in the first place though I feel like.

[@critzlez8593]

There's a firmware update recently. They reduced the beeping volume so it shouldn't be as bad of a problem now. I have 1500 miles and haven't had any issues with rattling or anything i also don’t have the squeaking trolley handle issue. i have the production model so maybe that’s why i don’t have issues with

[@MaximilianGros]

Where did you find the tire? I am searching for ages and the only tire I can find is the original one that I would have to import from america.

[@jansvoboda9778]

What psi you ride this tire?

[@jamesChisena]

I would also like to know. Have the same tire and find it hard to carve. It likes to do its own thing.

[@jansvoboda9778]

@@jamesChisena 33 Psi i actualy ride still new for me i need adapt to patton.

[@Andre-Mostert]

Interesting I was keen to get a Patton as a second wheel to my s22 but I think i will hang back for now. First need to sort out the S22 before moving to another wheel.

[@dirt.surfer]

Great video 👍think the tire wear is diameter related, the small wheels will suffer from this. I think the biggest question I have on the Patton is, is it a good value as a dedicated off road wheel with no intention of street riding.

[@scottmorris7320]

From my experience off roading over two weeks of full on riding black MTB tracks, it’s excellent, took a little adjusting to as all new wheels do, but man this thing pulls, it eats steep inclines. The 66lbs suspension is really good, it encourages me to tackle bonks and rock climbs I didn’t on the S22 or T4. The T4 is much more agile, but you soon have the Patton doing the same fast response turns once you get used to it, it’s in between the T4 and S22 for agility imo, but that is a great outcome for me, it doesn’t jump around like a mad woman’s tongue like T4 and is not as straight line as the S22. The overall balance is excellent and that’s something the S22 is crap for, and I love the S22, but I haven’t ridden the S22 pro since having the Patton. Sorry got carried away a bit, I hope that helps

[@mmakid]

Hi Where can I get the tire that you use? Heidenau K34 12 x 3.00 ?

[@mr_wrongway]

Yes that’s the name of it. I bought it locally in Poland.

[@jamesChisena]

I was unable to find a k34 in that size. On their US website they list a k38 scooter tire in that size. If that helps. Tread looks very similar if not the same

[@milordas]

@@jamesChisena it could be in different metrics, 80/90(or 80)-12 should fit

[@teddyjoe6782]

​@@mr_wrongway Hi, Do you have a website where I can order in Poland? Thank you

[@jamesChisena]

@@milordas Looking at their US website it seems the k34 is not even offered in that size. This could just be in the US though. The size on the K38 which looks oddly similar is the same spec Adam listed 3.00-12. Not sure how it translates to metrics 80/90 or 90/90

[@Full-master]

Ok! But why was a vibration there? Tremor or something like

[@Phil4222]

The sounds from the bearings wpuld you deacribe as a kids tricycle going auper fast ?

[@mr_wrongway]

Absolutely

[@floyder99]

A week ago I ordered this wheel from china so for me this video is especially interesting.

[@TurboGlenn]

How much real life difference in cycle life between 50e and 40t? 50e rated 500 cycles to 80% and 40t rated 250 cycles at 35A to 60% but you average way lower than 35A and 50e runs hotter. Any thoughts?

[@razdwa8451]

00:03 First EUC with a combustion engine😅

[@mr_wrongway]

diesel lol

[@arevee9429]

Thanks, Adam. Many screws with many sizes to keep track of isn't fun - or even just 2 sizes. Does Veteran have all the variation between builds that Begode has? I thought the latter was the worst offender in that department.

[@Blackbird231...]

Awesome video! Ever thought of doing a giveaway?

[@ragon747]

The most sad for me is see how much the Patton cost for you. Here in my country a V11 cost more then a Patton....surreal

[@fizzenfilm5881]

Where are you located?

[@EdLrandom]

I'm glad you have the cordless drill to unscrew finally, I got one after I had to disassemble my v12hs 3 times

[@burkejohnson4539]

I did the same before my third disassembly of my v12HT 😂

[@milordas]

actualy you need 2 of them, impact wrench and drill :)

[@EdLrandom]

@@milordasoh yeah, impact wrenches are sick! but I'm not risking them on EUCs, threads are in cast aluminum at best and plastic at worst.

[@HungrySpinz]

Man I know you won't do reviews for begode but couldn't you check the cmini to see if they improved? All hype but not many videos about this wheel.

[@mr_wrongway]

I’m not planning to review this one (yet) I will get the Extreme tho

[@HungrySpinz]

@@mr_wrongway Extreme just looks like the master version321 with a circuncision handle on top, heard the Americans are keen on that 😂

⚡👌🏼⚡

[@jasonk6166]

Actually went off your rec a while back for a KS18XL which has been a fantastic wheel and my daily commuter, however NYC streets have been destroying my knees without the suspension. I was one click away from buying the patton about a week ago but reading up on the commander mini and begode extreme got me excited enough to hold off. I'm really looking forward to seeing your extreme review as that's the wheel I'm leaning forward to most right now (although a little wary about a batch one wheel)

[@mikicsek]

I am having the same issue as you. I was suspecting the shock clamps too, but i did not want to wrongly overtourque it, because it is easy to overdo it on one side and not the other. You say you still have the problem. Any other idea, what it could be?

[@MariusMuja]

I have the same issue and it's not the clamps, it's from inside the shocks, probably the bushings are loose/worn.

[@slidersgliders5516]

Way to much lock Tite on the bolts .

[@vitam1ne51]

RE: Lots of bolts. I use a dry lube stick on all steel / alu interfaces. This stops galling / stripping
