    The Begode EX30 is the most powerful EUC we have reviewed to date. With its powerful 134-volt system paired with a C40 high-torque motor, the EX30 can reach speeds of 55+ mph and tackle slopes as steep as 45º. The wheel isn’t perfect but Begode has listened to consumer feedback and improved on a lot of its drawbacks in the past.
    In this review, we put the Begode EX30 through its paces and tell you what we love and hate about it.

    Aight guys, surprisingly I agree with everything you guys say. Being an owner with ~300miles on it, I've mostly solved the issues you guys mentioned. 1stly, early beeps are a function in the alarm settings (not just wheel settings) on EUC.W. 2ndly, I got 2x 12x16" ABS sheet offa Amazon ($20), wiped cases with alcohol, heated velcro to 150f in oven for 5-10min & pads sticking are no longer an issue. Softer knee protectors angled inwards under Leatt Dual Axis for the chaffing issue. All solved, mostly. Wheel felt like a tank/locomotive on 1st coupla rides but adaptation & aggressive fwd ped tilt angle solved it. This ex30 is very deceptively torquey & climbs as steep as well as a RSht but not as nimble ofcos. With suspension dialed in for weight & ride style, this ex30 is growing on me. I'm fraid its gonna spoil me & make other wheels feel mehhh to ride. Good review guys 🤘

    Thanks Andrew and Jimmy! I hope to have my EX30 by the summer. I will put the Grizzla fairing system on it like I have on my Master. I am fortunate enough to try most of the wheels and the EX30 is in a league of its own for asphalt shredding.

    No issues with the kickstand going down any stairs on my ex30, didn't have issues attaching velcro to battery casing (just use a hairdryer to heat up velcro adhesive), (I added a sheet of lexan from Home Depot with velcro on each side which acts like a fairing with more surface area to attach my bigger kinetic pads to), I added kinetic pads straight away for control (stock pads on any wheel suck comparatively) and modified/ painted stock pads around kinetic pads for wheel protection only.. couldn't be happier with my ex30.. best all round versatile most powerful wheel you can get in one wheel imho.. just about can do it all in one wheel and for a long time with great range.. (maximum power equals maximum safety imho with regards having maximum headroom before cutting out/ overtorquing)..don't really need another wheel as it does it all but will only be getting one other wheel to complement my ex30 specifically for highly technical trails/ winding single track demanding the most agility and that is the begode Extreme...Definitely won't need another wheel for a while with only the Extreme and ex30 in my arsenal.. need to sell my rs ht asap as I really have no use for it now

      @@VECTOR_Coasters the sherman-s bms does not communicate with the motherboard. Its just the charge port goes through the motherboard first before going towards the battery. Begode wheels the charge port goes directly to the batteries, skipping the motherboard. But the begode master and beyond, those wheels have a separate charge distribution board.
      Cant really say which is safer. I know someone who plugged in a bad charger on their master and it fried the charge board rather than the batteries. So the separate charge board did its job

    I also live in Colorado. I was wondering if a euc can be good to use for a daily commute. I'm looking at the in motion 12 HT and my family keeps on telling me that it's a mistake and that I need to get a car. They also bring up winter alot. I believe that I can save money by not having to pay insurance gas and upkeep at least until the winter starts. Then I can get a vehicle but still have the euc for fun and as backup and for summer. As a person who owns them and is experienced with them what is your recommendation?

    This is a fantastic and extremely durable ruclips.net/user/postUgkx4e2fa6x27dF7shCelntq0ZIKt4N0jELI unicycle. This was my first unicycle and I have really thrashed this thing for the past eight months or so and it has stood up very well. The only thing that has broken are the plastic pedals, they take a beating as you learn to ride, but an upgrade to metal pedals is fairly inexpensive and pretty necessary for most any unicycle. I have since acquired a 36 inch Coker for commuting and having ridden that I realized that the saddle on this unicycle can be a bit uncomfortable after a few hours riding, but still it is a great unicycle to start out on.
