Out of touch comment.

Handheld PCs are PCs.

 

and it is awesome, but good lord what a tank, and I'm like twice as high off the ground as my s18

 

alienrides, revrides, ewheels, inmotion direct and others have already started posting deals.

I just got an ex30 from ungerground on telegram so I'm set. (shout out to euc deals and next gen mobility as other good drop ship options too)

$460? That's a damn good deal

[–] [email protected] 1 points 9 months ago

It is a copy of a onewheel :) but fully customizable, as powerful as a onewheel GT S for half the price, and supports right to repair (each part is replaceable).

Futuremotion has tried to sue Floatwheel, but all they get is a middle finger. Floatwheel has no central location, and they only accept cryptocurrency. Patents can get fucked. They can't be sued. I think that's so cool that it's half the reason I bought it.

Congrats!! Make sure to join the discord, and use the floatwiki to set it up.

It's so powerful and stable

The point of the right to bear arms is to have some defense against an oppressive government if needed.

Yeah sorry, I meant that as two separate thoughts. I was saying that while that wheel size isn't for me personally the Patton is still a solid wheel in the commander mini size

But the mini is a great price on eucdeals too

Agreed, it's pretty dangerous, I just love it. I love that I can go anywhere and easily hop up and down curbs.

One of the best features for me is that I can ride on the sidewalk when the bike lane is sketchy, and if there is a pedestrian then I can easily hop off the curb back into the bike lane.

I also love bringing it in cafes and stores without having to lock it up. It feels almost like a skateboard, functionally. I hate having to park and lock my other PEVs.

The commander mini is looking cool, but I think for me I want a larger tire size for stability. Have you considered the Patton? I keep hearing good things

 

kingsong s18 for me, and next is definitely a bigger wheel, probably either a V13 or an EX30. I want more speed for roads.

I might just get a motorcycle though, or a fast ebike.

Good, they work great.

Yeah being angry at people buying homes is incredibly stupid.

How about being mad at the NIMBYs who push zoning laws that make it impossible to build dense apartments anywhere.

Gentrification is a word that smart NIMBYs made up to deflect blame.

Screw all housing related zoning laws.

Probably his cell phone spying on him and flagging him on key word searches and texting conversations and other precrime bullshit.

We'll never find out what the evidence was because it will never be made public

We know he had an AR15. That's it.

Hard disagree, he deserved worse. If you assault someone then expect to find out.

 

I love my ninebot g2 but it's too tall for my friend. Would you recommend the original ninebot max or something else?

Commuting in rain very often

This is not a paid ad, I'm just excited for mine to get here.

 

What gear and what PEV do you use in the rain?

Rainy season just started hitting here in Portland and I'm riding a G2 ninebot because I'm not comfortable with the water proofing on the S18 monowheel

 

I picked this up a few days ago after my V11 died (fried mosfet or fuse when doing a tiny hop up a curb) because it seemed a lot more durable in performance testing videos.

I've already crashed it once when coming up to an intersection curb too fast, with no damage to me or the S18. And I've already tried hopping a bigger curb than what killed the V11. So far so good. I've also dropped it a few times while practicing riding backwards.

However, the "feel" of it is inferior to the V11 in pretty much every way except for suspension, although the 10lb weight reduction is nice when carrying it up stairs.

I've put about 40 miles on it so far, and I'm finding it more "snappy" than the V11 but less "tight". It rattles and gets speed wobbles a lot easier.

Overall I'm happy with my purchase but I do miss my V11.

I think my next purchase in a year or so will be the V22 Pro, once it's on the final batch and the remaining kinks are worked out (water proofing and suspension slider/roller issues).

Oh and the inmotion app was way better.

S18: 5/5 durability, 3/5 ride feel V11: 0/5 durability, 5/5 ride feel

 

So I bought a V11 during the prime day sale for $1600, which I still think is a great deal. However I learned the hard way that you can't push that wheel in "fancy" mode. I tried to ride up a roughly 4 inch high curb at walking speed, and it fried a mosfet. Fully dead, can only get power to connect to the app while plugged in. It has rolling resistance, which means fried mosfet.

I returned it to amazon, no questions asked, easy-peasy.

If you have a V11, DO NOT USE "FANCIER MODE" (which lets you pull more power and hit 34mph), unless you want to fry your device. If you don't believe me, youtube "overheat hill V11" to see how fragile this thing is.

So I put a bid on a craiglist brand new S18 and after watching lots of videos on it (including overheat hill) I'm convinced the wheel will cut out before it allows damage to come to the control board.

This setback hasn't deterred me at all. EUC riding is the most fun thing ever, and I cannot wait till I pick up my S18 tomorrow.

 

For me I'm currently trying to push my way through elden ring. But gosh it sure gets hard half way through, especially underleveled and offline. I need to find that mimic summon.

Other than that, cycling through local coop games like PlateUp. Any suggestions?
