8 THINGS to KNOW BEFORE YOU BUY AN ELECTRIC UNICYCLE !!!

[@souIsynapse]

1. Is it legal 2. How hard is it to learn 3. 5:00 What protection do you need 4. 8:00 is it safe 5. 9:45 are they robust 6. 11:30 why should you get one 7. 12:15 which is best for you 8. 13:10 new ot used

[@Lucaslfm1]

The best point of the EUC for me: Integration with public transport. There's simply no other vehicle that I can take with me in a train or a bus as easily as the EUC. It's the perfect "Last mile" vehicle. You can even use it as a portable chair when train is full. =D

[@frederickoparah1669]

Exactly, im a massive scooter fan but you just cant beat the EUC, on public transport or entering shops.

[@godless9010]

You don't integrate with motorcycle gear on a train with An dingy wheel tbh

[@Lucaslfm1]

@@godless9010 I don't need a high speed/long range wheel since the main part of the commute is done by train, my v8 is more than enough. I don't wear any protective gear as well, since I don't need to go over 35km/h. Any how, it would still be easier to commute in train with a V-Sherman and bike gear than with a E-bike or Scooter. I'm looking toward to get a V11 with a seat, It's so tall, would be great to use as a chair in the train =D.

[@cargentiusg5289]

Lucas Montenegro the portable chair part sounds invaluable, and I've also ordered a V11

[@c2thew]

The only problem with euc’s are the significantly higher price point to entry vs a scooter. A nine or max can be had for $800 with a range of 24 miles at max speed, or even a high powered 60v 30ah Samsung powered scooter can be bought off of alibaba for $1400. Eucs start above that price point for the most part and the learning curve is much much higher. You can pass a scooter off to anyone and they will be up and riding in 5 seconds. The mastery of learning to ride an euc is where the risk/reward is at.

[@fredford7642]

Being a motorcyclist for 60+ years, I wish I could have one, but now can'i afford a fall. I really envy you younger people. What a wonderful opportunity to enjoy the outdoors and urban transportation. I honestly don't believe they are viable on unprotected roadways, like unlit roadways at night. Drivers in vehicles may not be able to see riders well enough.

[@SlimMichaelSpaghetti]

I would trade my youth for all bases with a hot chick

[@fredolives5853]

I think EUCs are a lot safer than OneWheels also. I love my OneWheel, but the sideways stance makes it much harder to run off falls and the nosedives are a constant threat which can't be completely eliminated by rider skill.

I’ve been riding my orb wheel x2 for 6 years and when I got the wheel it was the cheapest EUC for its time. But it still goes! It’s a really good form of transportation.

[@frontier9142]

I've had a knee replacement due to a motorcycle accident, but I was wondering if this would be too much for my knee?

[@old_guard2431]

Very informative, well presented (as expected) - I particularly like the emphasis on developing your own exoskeleton - even with experience you will part company with the vehicle from time to time and you want to bounce, not crash. I think it helps to know how to fall, and I think you pick that up early or not at all. With me it was sports like skiing and soccer ("football" in EU, but even American football helps). Something like gymnastics or martial arts would be excellent. You seldom have the time to think or plan your landing, so it has to become instinct.

[@StarrDust0]

[@smallratt]

i think its not good for bearings in wheel :D

[@paveltroev8221]

grow a pair )) sorry for that. you have to mod your wheel for solid grip to fully utilize it, put some Kuji pads or cut yoga mat and glue it on hard edges, replace bolts in pedals with set screws. I had ks-14d which weights ~14kg and put neoprene pads following Kuji guide in "How to jump with any electric unicycle", I was able to hop on 23cm curb every time (watch Sidestreet Reny for ks-14 tricks, he is really in to jumping), after 2500km I turned it and got ks-16s v2, which I really love, I learned to idle and reverse with it, it weights 17kg and I can travel 20-30 km not getting too tired, i glued some eva pads and able to jump on 33cm curb like 9/10 times now if I'm not too tired, that's my physical limit - I weight around 70kg and do more sitting (coding) then walking.

[@Kenwaldek]

Triple8 downhill longboard helmet are more open to see around and reasonable light have a look at it, great Chanel

[@Kenwaldek]

In Belgium you are allowed 25 on an euc the question is can you set that speed and how you know you are on the speed you want to be example if the wheel is doing 45 but you want to limited it to 25• I assume it’s with the footpedals the give feedback?

[@ggbiz6679]

@wrongway I say EUC is the KING when its comes to portability & space management... I have an electric kick scooter w/c weight 30kg... it's a problem lifting it 'coz i have stairs going to our house that's why i've bought MCM5 340wh yes speed & range sucks but enough for commute going to work & home also i have abit play time before going home... Portability 17kg easy lifting it going upstairs & space management easy to put on a car compartment of in-between ur leegs... Not in a hurry to upgrade but waiting for your review on RS HT 'coz its a very hilly place here in my place... Gotta love that water crossing wish all euc can do that...

[@chrisgibson2268]

It's actually bad advice to wear wrist guards if you have bad or awkward slam you can actually end up with worse breaks that take longer to heal gloves with leather inside the palms would be better. I've played ice hockey and been a aggressive inline skater for a couple of decades also mx rider so have some experience with bad and awkward falls haha. I've seen some real bad breaks and fractures that wouldn't of been as bad if wrist guards had not been used, not to mention when you land on wrist guards they slide too fast so it's quite common to put both hands down and your hands slide apart wide and you slam your face. This wouldn't happen with gloves with some material protection indise the palm instead of hard plastic etc. 🤙

[@anthonyvargas9463]

This was an Amazing video 👍🏼

[@PerryBowden]

Which EUC were you riding in this video? There are so many qualities and cons with each EUC, I can't decide which one to get. But I do like the foot stoppers on the one you are riding, and the sharp turning radius it appears to have, without peddle bite. Edit: Never mind, looks like the Inmotion V11. I didn't know you could add those foot stoppers to it. That certainly helps narrow down my choice. Early videos I saw of it, it looked and sounded like it was difficult to speed up on or to jump with because of a lack of contact and grip with the device. Doesn't seem like an issue with those. I just wish it had a speedometer and odometer without needing to use an app. Otherwise, it might be perfect.

2 more things I would like to know! 1. What to do when a wheel gets punctured? 2. Can I go to office in a professional attire, and without safety gears, when I become ride-safe ?

[@monowheeling]

1. Either use Slime which with some luck fixes it or you need to change the tube. Depending on the wheel and your skills this is a 20-120 minutes job. KZbin is your friend on how-to. 2. I bought some gear 6 years ago and used some of it maybe a few times. I haven't been wearing any gear since in more than 20,000km of riding (same for cycling). I have taught quite a bunch of people without using any gear. Learning to keep your knees flexed and how to let go and step off rather than be sent flying when something goes wrong is more important than any gear. However, if you want to ride the EUC like a motorcycle or above 25km/h, I guess you better keep using gear.
