    Thanks for addressing the braking wobble issue. My third ride on the V 13 resulted in an uncontrollable speed wobble which ended in a yard sale on the pavement which kind of made me wary of riding this wheel until I figured out what happened. I have about 3000 miles on my V12 ht and it actually happened last week on that wheel and I figured out that if you are going down a steep incline on pavement the contact surface of the road moves way back on the wheel so any uneven braking inputs actually push the wheel sideways instead of downward at least relative to the angle of the pavement axis of the machine.

    13:44 “you should be like a ghost riding this thing” best advice. It is so stealthy and silent many don’t see it coming. Find a way around people. Let them notice only when you are gone.

    Chooch,
    Excellent advice for urban riders. I worked for UPS for one winter and their training was spot on to your advice regarding anticipating traffic patterns in front of you to avoid stopping and traffic flow. Was great training I thought I'd never use again until I started riding an EUC.Great vid! How's the cat?

    Best advices for a crowded city. I have learned the hard way what Mr.Chooch is sharing here. Urban trafic could sound like nothing serious to some and that's because they didn't got run over by drivers that simply don't pay attention to nothing else but what is in front of them.

    Awesome tips my dude! That twist as you're stopping really helped! When you told me to do that it pretty much eliminated that braking wobble for me. Awesome tip in looking ahead. That's so true. Coming from the motorcycle world, I've always heard you go where you're looking. Target fixation is real. Look where you want to go not at the thing you're trying to avoid is a tip I'd give there. Sweet riding Chooch! You're my hero. ❤

    @BruceWayne15325 Год назад

    Great advice! I especially appreciated your comment to always over analyze other drivers. I think this is the number one key to safe urban riding. As a truck driver I was trained to always assume that everyone else on the road is a complete moron, and to believe that they all want to do the stupidest thing imaginable at any moment. Sadly, more often than not, that ends up being exactly what they do. Learning to make an escape plan in real-time for every stupid thing you can imagine cars around you doing will go a long ways towards keeping you safe. Keeping your distance from other vehicles is also key. The idiots can't kill you if they aren't near you.

    Carving... You'd mentioned in a previous video about that sensation and compared it to snowboarding and it was that suggestion that made it click for me.
    When I realized you were a lightweight rider I realized that I can be pretty aggressive on my EXN and honestly need to be to make it work under me like I needed.
    You've been the best teacher I found online to learn how to ride this thing. There is barely any kind of PEV community here where I live and no one that rides an EUC. I feel self taught, but you have a lot to do with my riding style and confidence...

    Thank you so much for makin this video, I recently bought a v13 and have bio Clark power pads because I saw you use them and like them, and I have loved everything about the wheel except havin issues with 45-55mph high speed wobbles. I message you on a couple of video ago about it, and then you dropped this video answer my questions, thank you 👊 You rock! I have a whole new respect for your riding capabilities, you make it looks so easy but you can tell how extremely experience you are by how easy you make it look, especially after riding to work (40miles) everyday myself. Keep on shredding & posting & thanks again for all the solid advice 🤙

    Great advice bro! I got a V12HT and only been on a EUC for like 3 weeks. I've learned real quick that you need to have your head on a swivel, keen anticipation, be ready to make split decisions and ride with confidence. Just wish someone warned me about getting whipped by the peddles. Happened twice and wow I wrap my legs up! lol

  • @7even285
    @7even285 Год назад +2

    Great description of carving to tame wobbles, great advice on courtesy and reading the situation (traffic parkour), and I definitely vouch for not moving your pads. Put in 1,000 klicks on my SS, then accidently moved the pads too far forward. Now I'm back to square-one trying to reconnect to the wheel. Nothing feels familiar so I just have to keep adjusting and putting in the miles until it starts to feel tight again. I won't do anything at speed until I know for sure I'm back on my game.

    Great vid/advice. Its funny.....I tell the many people that talk to me and ask if it's hard to ride. Its like skiing and ridding a bike at the same time. I own a Master. It's only a little over 80lbs with my current set up and my idea of high speed on it is 35-38 mph. I have yet to break 40mph haha. Your breaking advice is spot on. It's about the only time I really get wobbles. I get them from time to time when I'm tired and have been ridding all day....that's true of us all tho haha
    I ride in Boston from time to time. Normally I am on a group ride so traffic is less of worry. At home (I work second shift) I mostly ride at night. At 2am the roads are DEAD around here so I can have a little fun. I try and hit the trails but the good ones are .5 - 2+ hour drive away.
    You hit the trails a lot......any advice for dirt track racing? I'm going to have my first taste of it in a couple of weeks. It's a clinic kind of event....practice/training....qualifying....race. Ill be happy if I can qualify HAHAHAHA

    Yup, giving yourself time to get used to a new wheel is important. I hated my Master when I got it. My other wheels are non-suspension. But once I got it out on dirt roads and Jeep trails, I could never go back to non-suspension wheels. My knees hurt for a week after a rough dirt ride on the Sherman, but even much longer, harder rides don't hurt on the suspended wheel.

  • @garretblair94

    I know you talked about breaking and acceleration percentages… What is your pedal softness/hardness at? how does it affect your acceleration and braking?

    • @JohnWilkieJr
      @JohnWilkieJr Год назад +3

      He was using 100% on both. On the V13 the braking at 100% will tilt you back 15 degrees and helps a lot with the weight of the Wheel but takes some getting use to. Wish all the heavier wheels had that. Be great on the ss but only minimum tilt back is built in.

  • @GalacticalAmbassador
    @GalacticalAmbassador 2 месяца назад

    One of the easiest ways to remove nearly all wobbles is reducing the PSI to 10-15. It will risk damaging the innertube and rims but at least you won't have to worry about wobbles

    • @JohnWilkieJr

      I own both so range is the question. If you ride conservatively I can get 90 miles out of the ss and 70 miles on the V13. If I ride all out at faster average speed of 35 to 40 both wheels get 45 mile range. 100 volt with less power on the ss and 126 volt and more power on V13 is about even. So riding style has a lot to do with it. It's hard to compare wheels side by side because the specs are so different.

    Guy in Queensland, Australia on an escoot (EUC governed by same laws) is on a footpath cause he is not allowed on the road as it does not meet the criteria for the type of road he is allowed on. Going past a school. Group of maybe a dozen kids blocking the path. He does a quick on the road and back on the path. Cop got him. Pedestrians have right of way. Road did not have a bike lane and had dividing lanes so he not allowed on it. Got a fine. He Should have dismounted and walked past them. Such are the rules in that state. So peeps, while Choch can do it, Know your own state and city laws.

    • @JohnWilkieJr
      @JohnWilkieJr Год назад +3

      I own both and like the stability of the V13. I get feet and knee pain on long rides on the ss. The extra range does no good if you can't use it unless you ride multiple days between charges. Also to be fair I have the street tire on the ss which makes it very responsive but gives up some stability. Both wheels are great. Can't go wrong with either one.

    I really admire you for your riding skills, it's amazing!
    However, anything you're doing, and you would get an instant ticket where I live :/

    Very ballsy to ride EUC in car traffic at those speeds. I’d never risk it with your body as the first impact zone

    these videos are why EUCs are having hard time getting legalized

      You don’t buy something like this to follow traffic laws. Legal or not this is how these WILL be ridden. What would legalization even look like? 25mph speed limit? Registration and insurance? Turn signals?! Yea sounds like a blast and everyone will def follow those rules.

    And that's why they banned EUCs in Europe. :( Imagine 1,000 riders like you in Denver. Statistically 5-6 will make a lethal mistake each day. It would be mayhem. Your video should be labeled how NOT to ride in the city. I loved the advice though about breaking and how to progressively get used to a high speed EUC. Thanks!

    As I always say to myself, is to ride it out when it gets hairy.
