Thank you, nice tips, this is the best euc ever.
I swear you drove past the science musuem in Cambridge lol, i just got my euc begode t4 hopefully i can master it and be out there soon
It’s deceiving how big some of these new wheels are, heavy and tall. I hope they are stable and controllable.
Really helpful thanks
I watch Uni videos only because I admire your passion, but I do not like those vehicles and that’s putting it nicely
@U-Stride Hey Bro, Hopefully we can talk-tech for a sec..
Last year, I grabbed a V13, but, also tweaked my back/neck/shoulder, so riding that was out..
Obviously pissed, I broke down and got a smaller wheel to hopefully throw around while recouping..
Sam Pacheco over at AI Rides Saved-The-Day [HE WENT ABOVE AND BEYOND!! - So BIG Shoutout to SAM P! You da' Man!]
Fast Forward: "Life" got in the way, and I've Only JUST NOW been able to bust em' out! Here's where the issue lies..
The 2nd EUC: Begode A2. Nice little rig. But No Way in it's OEM form..
I nix'd the OEM pads/shell and went as far as printing out some Very Nice Pads for it..
EVERY SINGLE TIME It is ridden forward - accelerating, trying to 'send-it', Whatever.. It has Terrible 'speed wobbles'!!
I've skated, biked, moto-x'd, trail ridden, you name it.. And I can ride regular Unicycles.. I know the drill.. haha
So when this happens.. I know something might be up.. I got the Begode app, already went through that..
No Change..
It doesn't matter if ya ride in a straight line, carve tight, carve wide.. It just starts to randomly wobble..
So get on it, start off, 'wobble', correct it, get going again, 'wobble'..
I've had it out in parking lots, bombed [tried to bomb] around town, had it out on state land trails.. WOBBLE WOBBLE
I'm pestering YOU because the Entire Internet Is A FAILURE Now A Days! ZERO Helpful Info Anywhere!
*Everyone just regurgitates about carving for forward riding and they bring up brake-wobble. That's NOT the issue..
So.. Hopefully we might be able to come up with some actual ideas about this one.
1 it'd be nice to know - to work on getting the wheel better-ridable
1 I'm sure that others are also dealing w/ it or TRYING TO, and it's very VERY Off-putting! I'm stickin' w/ it though..
Thanks a million for any time/help you throw into this, and know that it's Greatly Appreciated!
Sincerely,
The 'other Sam' aka Dirty Dovi 🤘🤣
[Edit]
*IMPORTANT INFO* to add:
After trying the OEM 'pads', and fitting it with some Real Ones.. I played with Both 'foot positioning' and 'pad positioning'
Feet center on pegs, then more Feet/Toes Forward - Literally hanging off the front of the pegs..
Nope. That caused MORE 'wobble'. Feet CENTERED / Feed positioned to the rear - 'smoothed up' a bit.. Nothing drastic.
So.. The 'wobble'...
We're not talking a regular wobble that comes on, shakes left/right..
We're talking a VIOLENT OSCILATION!!! ***Anyone w/o the balance/skills Would Be THROWN Off!!
It's actually pretty Ridiculous..
**I checked the app - no cutouts, not even hitting max speed..
It can happen going 10mph or 20..
- Tire has been inspected/addressed: Lower PSI, Recommended, Higher - Same deal...
- Firmware - Just updated to the newest: both APPs and EUC - No difference..
- Adjusted the fore/aft 'lean' - no difference..
It's becoming pretty mind boggling. I'd LOVE to get er' working 'right' though, cause a LOT of people are interested around here
I'm more upstate/western - Wayne County New York
So I ride up here, down in Central NY - stopping around the Binghamton area..
So it's Killin' me not to be able to hand someone a device that we can actually use properly..
***My friend's friend tried it, learned it FIRST TRY!! Ran it down a waling path, annnnd then it Bucked Him Off. Literally!
It spun, it went airborn and So Did He. Supermanned right onto the asphault path.. We All Laughed. Very Hard. *shrug*
But yeah.. 3 people have noticed this now, so, it's not just a 1 time deal w/ me.
- Slowing / Stopping: I've straight-line-stopped it, and I've carve-stopped it..
Both will sometimes work flawlessly.. Other times, "normal wobble" - relaxing/carving/etc will stop that instantly..
But I did also notice that Abnormally Hard Oscillation / Wobble, and can tell them apart..
The Hard Hitting Wobble *Would have bucked me off - If the EUC didn't have a toe-lock / jump-pad on it..
***It was NOT FUN!!! ***But luckily Saved.
Shutting up now. =D
5:00 "I don't lean". *GREAT EXAMPLE*
On the A2, I've tried both flat-foot-riding, and forward-leaning..
I can still expect and sure enough experience the wobble then..
And then Forward-Leaning, it's almost: fOrGet aBoUt iT..
I've tried both feet/legs even, left foot a bit forward [Right leg dominant / and I skate/snowboard ]
I tried left far forward, right too-far-backward: Like crank arms / pedals on a bmx bike.. NOPE,
the gyro Really didn't like that. =D
I'll try my best to get a private-video up and shared as soon as I can. "Life" is just preventing that right now.

@DirtyDovi I recommend starting with the lowest tire pressure where you get no wobbles, then move up. Also, since you haven't ridden in while, I recommend trying with a wheel you are already sued to. This is to make sure it's not your posture or setup.
@@UStride Wow! You're Lightning-Fast w/ the reply and advise! THANK YOU!
I only have the two wheels: The V13 is too heavy, so stays at my place..
The A2 is 'supposed to be' my bomb-around wheel - *That I keep in my vehicle at all times..
That's why I need to figure the A2 out 'specifically'!
Great recommendation though!
*I've aleady tried a vast tire PSI range. [We do that w/ our enduro and moto-x bikes as well..
I LITERALLY had the pressure down So Low that the tire de-beaded from the rim..
Once reinstalled and as 'balanced' as I could get it, I'd try incroments of about 5psi
til' it was about 20psi over the marked psi on the tire]
*I'm a photographer, and do a LOT of shooting out in the middle of nowhere..
So the wheels came into play as a way to move 'stealthily', while still operating all of my equipment..
Just like when I'm out w/ a motorcycle - recommended/+ PSI for street and -PSI [down 5-10psi for offroad]
YES, lower psi helps out and sometimes even BIG. Unfortunately, not in this case..
[and BTW, Sam sent the option/version w/ the off-road/tread]
Speaking of - I used the Begode App, and tried both "Off Road" and "Racing" modes..
While there was probably 'something' happening in the background, it wasn't really noticed.
Both modes / Oscillation still present
Thank You Again Bro!
I just can't wait to get this thing figured out.. Sux being 'grounded'
Can you do a video on or explain how hard you can accelerate off the line without fear of cut out (like you did on the RS19HS)?
Great info. I am seeing conflicting info on wobbles: carve, break, squeeze, and speed up.
On a motorcycle they say speed up if you can. I once had a wobble and did indeed fight it and regained control but carving should deffo work if you have the room
I started out with the M super V3. I was advised to go with a smaller wheel/less powerful wheel because I was a beginner. I was able to appreciate the value of a heavier wheel which is the MSP. MSP allowed me to appreciate how how the wheel stability increased with its weight. This is not to necessarily promote advanced wheels for beginner riders but one of the key factors was how costly any given wheel can be. So purchasing a wheel for learning is very costly... as well as ... crashing an expensive advanced wheel. Everyone please be safe because you can get hurt at even a 'slow velocity'
M super V3 still my first wheel after 2 years of riding. I just crashed it last week 49 kmh at night due to a pot hole. Lucky me the wheel went roll crashing in the grass but i slide on the bike path with my full gear that saved my skin. Still a great wheel but can't wait to upgrade next spring. Gear up people !
Great video. I applied your techniques, and I could feel myself getting more control over my wheel. There's something about the way you explain things that I really sinks in. Keep making these great videos!
Thanks man, these tips were actually helpful and the idea of using one leg to lean / drive forward instead of my whole body leaning forward has been a game changer for me riding past 20mph. Much appreciated!
you could really remove your helmet when talking (when sitting on a bench, not when riding, please)...it is hard to understand you
i was getting break wobble on the v11 and i thought i was doing something wrong, but nope! apparently you just get used to it and dont let it control you
You keep posting youtube videos.. Bravo..
perhaps a wheel collection vid or garage vid?
great vid and advice!!!
I've already broken my bones because I was too careless and inexperienced. And it is particularly important to check the clothing: to check whether the protectors are where they belong. If I had done that, I would have been spared major surgery and lengthy rehabilitation.
Yo! Thanks for the awesome tips bro! It’s helped me understand my style of riding. We can’t be like you. That for sure. Everyone has their own style of riding. But with. The advice you’re giving me helps me find my style of riding. Thank you
Il bello dell'EUC è la scoperta continua di nuovi stili di guida. Però le oscillazioni possono essere spaventose e pericolose, quindi è necessario capire come evitarle. Con il mio V11 le oscillazioni arrivano in frenata, specialmente se sto troppo avanti sui pedali.
I just bought an Inmotion V12 Pro (basically same as HT) which is my first wheel. I'm at a point where I can mount and get started successfully most of the time, and I can generally ride in control. Not super confident with hard turns (hope to be able to turn like you do in this video). I'm not trying to accelerate very hard yet. Just taking my time, acquiring the skills, etc. I've been riding for about two weeks, mostly short sessions. No power pads installed yet.
I find that I start to get the wobbles pretty consistently around 20mph. As soon as I feel it coming on, I brake gently and slow down a bit. Then I gently start to accelerate and get the wobbles again right around the same speed.
That speed threshold seems to have increased from roughly 15mph to roughly 20mph over the course of a week. So if it's just muscle memory that takes time to develop, that's fine but I can't tell if that's what it is, or if I'm doing something wrong. I can tell you I'm tall and heavy with size 15 shoes, and I definitely place my feet tight against the shell of the wheel.
the muscles take time to develop especially if you didn't do a lot of cycling before this. take it slow and don't crash, don't push the limits until your body catches up months later.
Great video 📹
Can you do a full tutorial video 📹
Of how to seat 💺 riding please?
Thanks for the tips! Could you do a video that explains the tight turning technique you were using when carving at speed? You mentioned that you could do it, but you didn't explain how you were doing that. It definitely seems like a nice trick for avoiding obstacles at speed.
What instrumental is playing at the beginning
Started with exn and omg it was heavy at start. Took me an hour a day for a full week to somewhat get used to weight and start driving with some competence.
Awesome riding tips as always, keep on the good work, cheers!!!
Nice work sticking with it and learning on a heavy wheel right off the bat. I did the same and it def took me a while and for a min there, i thought i wasnt gonna get it. Then it all clicked and everything changed. Now I'm glad i didnt buy a cheaper, less powerful, yet still expensive wheel. Lol keep up the good work
@@patc2515 that was a year ago and am at over 6k km of riding now. Wheel looks like it went through war lol. Best decision, money spent hands down, NO REGRETS!!!
that one-legged knee bend technique for acceleration looks pretty cool, gotta say! 7:25
Weird on the Sherman i get wobbles if i brake down like you do.
What's your weight? What tire do you have?
@@UStride same as you, knobby tire.
Same. Squatting down even with weight evenly distributed makes any wobble worse on my shermax. Stock kenda tire and happens at any pressure, but worse over 27psi. My weight with kit is 248lbs.
When wobble starts it’s usually above 30mph and the only way to stop it is to lean forward slightly and stand up as tall as possible with even weight on the balls of my feet. It won’t work with even weight on center or heel of each foot.
Nice tips & advice. I glad you mentioned weight because I feel so many riders focus on speed & range but leave the topic of weight on the back burner. Excellent video my Brother! Peace & Blessings!
Thanks man
@@UStride Your welcome! Good Times at the Wheel Life Rally.
@@senseivegan absolutely
Nice
I never got wobbles for ages but then I took the Sherman on track, hard braking from high speed for a corner was scary.
So starting on a smaller wheel didn't help? Asking because I started on a Sherman and can ride any wheel and almost no wobbles. I hear opposite experiences with starting with a small wheel
Weird, I started with the Sherman, and learning on that wheel has made riding any wheel super easy. Litetally was up and riding within an hour. Learn to control wobbles on a heavy wheel and it'll make all lighter wheels a piece of cake. So, I have to disagree with your opinion. Kinda hard to tell people not to start on a heavy wheel if you never experienced learning on a heavy wheel. It teaches you things a smaller wheel won't.
I hear a bunch of wobble stories with people starting with a small wheel and going bigger. But starting with a big wheel, I don't hear so many wobble stories when going to other wheels.
Who goes from a bigger wheel to a smaller lol
How does one know if thier app is synchronized? (Euc world is what I use)
We will have a live on that
Excellent video!!
To be honest it look like a toy on video , are all looks like toys unfortunately, that’s why children kids want them
Are your feet offset or even?
Offset
@@UStride thanks I’ll try it out! Having a hard time accelerating quickly on my Nik+
These are very great tips! Thank You!
Really good points it makes alot of sense
Guys, can anyone tell me why wobbles is occurs? Im riding not so fast, but its time to time this stuff is shaking, what im doing wrong? My height is 180 and i got V8F.
Just bc your muscles aren't strong enough/ used to it yet. It takes time for your muscles to adjust. It's normal
Nice video bro, I agree with what you're saying. Glad someone is lookin out for the next generation of euc riders, great tips.. Wish I had a mentor style breakdown when I was learning yrs ago. Would a saved a few crashes lol.
Take the helmet off, i can not hear you anything...
1month into owning my first wheel (RS19HS). These videos are really helping out
En France on est ranquille la vitesse est limitée a 25 km/h c’est stupide thanks for yours explication good
