Yep they are really weeding out the true enthusiasts with that tire change
Nothing wrong with the original tyre in the first place 🙄
@@afms-jo2de not the point...🙄 eventually the tire has to be changed.
@@Kay0Bot Have multiple wheels and you will be in no hurry to do a tyre change.
@@afms-jo2de yea , 50 wheels sounds like the right amount. No more tire change ever...😏
@@Kay0Bot if you can afford it, why not 😛
Overinflate the tire so the bead seats properly. You hear it pop when it seats right. Then deflate. Usually about 60-75psi to seat, then down to 30ish
Are you assuming the Tire fits? Why? My assumption is: The tire looks cool they choice it without adjusting the construction of the wheel according to the tires specs. Childish ? Yes... Dangerous ? Yes... Gotway like ? Yes also that
I love that you didn't cut that part out of the video.
Hell nah thought I wanted one but that tire change blew me 😂. I’m already lazy when it comes to changing my GotWay Tesla tire
Is it a big hassle to change them by yourself? I bought a Tesla last year and I’ve had to change the tire a few times, but I pay professionals to do it 😅😅
Sindre Valheim it’s like a 20 min process, u don’t have to disconnect any wires or nothing but it still sucks lol
I don’t see why you would have to disconnect all those wires... you should just be able to disconnect the xt connectors and be done
Now, this is what I call, “Entertainment Video”! 😂👍
New to these--but seriously, why the hells is it so complex to change a tire? Have the designers not considered how that might need to be a thing?!
Looks like a phone
You got to do all that to change a simple flat though? Damn!
I just had a flat on my KS18XL and I used "Ultra Instant Bike Tire Inflator Sealer" from Walmart and it worked great. It's basically a bicycle tire sized Fix-a-Flat. No disassembly needed...
Bridgeboy69 how long did that last for you? Sounds good...
@@AndreiPetunin So far just a few days. I just did it. But I have no reason to expect it won't last as long as the tire will last or until a new puncture develops.
I squirted it inside and then rode the EUC for about 3 or 4 miles to really spin it up in there while it was drying and to make sure it balanced out evenly.
You did all.that just to change out the tire!
I think imma just get another one.
I'm from India and I love your videos, they're so informative.
Recently I've been very stressed about the border disputes between India and China. As peaceful citizens of India and China we must ask our governments to work out our differences without fighting and bloodshed. 😞
This is ridiculously complicated, and even dangerous, in order to change a tire!
welcome to the world of eucs
Bad engineering. They wanted to rush production and didn't bother with long term maintenance.
@@Tiagotaf Yep!
I think que Unicycles are evolving. Kuji already did show an unicycle que have suspension. Maybe the next level will be a better way to justo replace tires. The Trolley Handle for example we can see as a default accessory, but the firsts Unicycles even had one
Fix a flat might work in most situations, but replacing a totalled tire would probably have to be done by an expert
That looked like fun!
When you pinch the tube slightly during install and just hope it goes away. It never does.
marsrover001 you can depressurize the tube until it’s barely rideable, then go around the block, sometimes that straightens out twists or folds. It worked for me on the recommendation of Jason from ewheels.
Thanks for the info on how to change it and on how hard it is ....LOL. Looks like I won’t be getting one in my hands for quite a while anyway so I’ll have to just enjoy watching others with this beast. Keep riding and.... Keep it Wheel!
just when I was thinking you would do it, you really did it!
I thought something was up when the video started and I saw 3:31😂 Mr Kuji I know part2 is gonna be worth the wait👍🏾
great video, love the twist
Loving it!!! So many dramas !!! 😆
Man I was waiting for it 🙌🙌
Great & well done (edited) videos! 👍👌👍🙏
Dealbreaker.
for sure
Great video, glad I found you.
Man they really need to find some way to make the wheel more accessible! Having to go through all that each time just to swap a tire or patch a tube is a huge pain!! Btw is the outside diameter the same as stock? As in this won’t affect the top speed will it?
Yeah, pretty much identical width and diameter
@@KujiRolls Did it go any faster?
Hope you have a tyre comparison review coming up so people can make the right choice when they order their wheel.
Dude you're definitely a risk taker.....but you make me believe I can take on every challenge before me. Thank you.
This channel is blowing up and its good to see. I subbed a week ago and since then you've gained 10k subs!! Grats man and keep on wheelin!!
He had less than 10k subs when I subbed a few months ago. (I think it was may)
I was one of those new subs! It hasn’t even been a full week yet and I already have my wheel coming in a few more days!!! I didn’t even know they existed prior to RUclips’s random Kuji recommendation.
Dré Gamer Welcome to the EUC community
Ace Ventuna yooooooo thank you Ace!!!
You did it! Hell yeah, make sure the tube isn't getting pinched between the rim and the tire and also make sure the valve is properly aligned with the rim valve port those might be the reason you popped
Kuji what a great video in showing the complexity of changing the wheel which really you don't have to, but customization, and comfort out rule the most. I really enjoy this video, but it won't deter me from wanting this awesome wheel. I hate to say it, but I'm a fanboy true and true. If need be I will learn everything about it to the point where I become an engineer specialist for this wheel like I did for the Monster when I was trying to get that wheel, but switched over to the Sherman. Anyways with these great videos that you make about all others . I'm sure the company will see that, and try to improve it in some ways. Keep up the great videos.
Thanks tang tang
That sucks! I feel for you. 🙁
With tube tires its good to semi-inflate the tube to maybe 10 psi after installing, then use your hands to fully work the tube and tyre because itsmsoft enough to squeeze.
That makes sure the tube is not pinched. And some talcum powder or chalk rubbed on the tube will help it find the natural position and get less abrasion.😁
I don’t know how I came across this channel but I watched every single video lol kinda sucks that he hasn’t been around for a year but I’m sure with having his own career it’s tough to make videos consistently
Awesome videos! I want one!
The next generation should have a better user friendly changing.
yes i agree, not user friendly to have to dissasemble powercables and stuff. it should have a joint on top so it opens like a waffle iron, and u can then switch out the wheel and rim superfast.
@@magnetmannenbannanen I doubt a design like that wont be very strong
agreed. This wasnt fun the second time either.
@@KujiRolls Do you have any technique changes go change the tire more effectively?
Looking forward to see how it rolls once you get the road tire on properly. I would definitely go for a road tire if I had a Veteran.
Nice final🙂👍
Ultra hardcore straight edge EUC bizarro riders reign, rule and long live!
Kuji....Can’t wait for you to do an Epic Vid riding on the street tire. You may now get up to 50mph...sick
its scary to think you can go that fast in a wheel. seems almost irresponsible from the manufactures. you practically should have a licence to ride this. just wait for the lobbyists, and definitely should not be allowed in sidewalks. imagine crashing into a pedestrian, body to body at 60mph
ORIGINS DECODED You bring up excellent points!
@@originsdecoded3508 Do you really think that will happen?
@@MikieSWE it depends how popular this wheels become. just have to look at the trends of what happened with the e-scooters that bearly reach 20mph. they even got banned in certain cities within usa.
to many people riding them in the sidewalk, accidents with pedestrians.
imagine this beast of a wheel used at 40+ in the sidewalks by hundreds of people.
But I think it won't reach all time popularity height giving the fact that they are very expensive, for now its not in the radar of all those policy makers and lobbyst's because hundreds, thousands, millions, of people arnt' yet riding them in sidewalks.
Hey when I’ve put my tube back into the frame of the tire I cover it with dishwashing soap and water so it can slide in the frame if it’s not seated properly, as well it seems to help keep the tube from getting pinched and staying pinched. I didn’t see you put any kind of lubricant on the tube for the tire. It also will show if there are any pinholes in the tube which sometimes happens before you get it or while handling it. Good luck and thanks for the post.
Okay so the thing that's hilarious to me is next (in way of progression and what we'd like to see developed on the NEXT new wheel) is EZ tire change 😂😂😂...and THEN to have to change it AGAIN after a tube POP, Damn, can I get at least a day out of it?! 😡😳🤷🏽♂️😂😂😂Good stuff! 👍🏽✌🏾🙌🏾👌🏽🙏🏽
Swapping tires and inner tubes is one of the big issues I have with unicycles. Both of Msuper X 84V (2 pairs) almost caught on fire due to wrongfully reconnecting the battery. And this was after I installed a brand new tire and inner tube on the wheel. Inmotion, Kingsong, Gotway, and Sherman have to make these changes: easily replacing a tire without taking the unicycle apart and make battery swapping easier and safe.
Really enjoy your Videos..... I WANT ONE OF THOSE!!! sherman tank things...too much money for me though...... looks fun! :o)
I use baby powder (talc) in my mountain bikes and dirt bikes before putting the tubes in. It acts as a dry lube and I never get pinch flats, even aired down to really low pressures. Just put some inside the tire before installing and roll it around to spread it out.
Now i think that tire change/flat repair/disassemble is a must subject to every unicicle review, since the DIY should be a simple thing (SHOULD)
I wipe around the new tyre, inside with a wet wipe just in case there are sharp bits or stones in there. Then like what others have said be ultra careful about making sure the inner tube is not pinched anywhere. What a bummer!
Damn, well at least you got the original!
Awesome brother.. I wish to buy it. Love from india.❤️
I’d say such awe full complex tire change calls for urgent development of Tubeless Run Flat Tire solutions! Ideally something that works without air pressure, like a strong/flexible Foam material stuffed inside the tire !? 🤔
Goodness. You a handsome dude!
True Deal Breaker For Me.
If you record a segment while in the shitter, I'll still watch! Lol coolest dude ever...
What a day !
a pain to take apart again😂👍🏻
The walk of shame
Hey how about swapping out the rolls bars with custom heat-treated stainless? Get that nice rainbow of heat treated steal look. 👍🏼
You first!
Use a lubricant on the tire bead and it should settle fine. I had the same imbalance issue last time so deflated it, made sure tube was not pinched anywhere, and lubed up the bead. Rode it for few hundred metres at 20 psi then inflated to full, no issues.
Wow, you got at least 5. I want one but waiting..... for one that will get me "WOW". Almost brought one with suspension but will wait. Wasting my $$$ on RC vehicles, planes and boats next. I wonder how you got a flat. I take my 10" inflatable hoverboard with 5 batteries and RC truck to the trails while I am buzz on wine and high on weed (Super Fun) No hardcore drugs. Can't wait to get my first EUC so I can catch up to the rc truck.
Omg I feel your pain rolling 35kgs for more than 2 minutes..... Yikes...... I love gotway😎🤙
Any chance of putting the whole video up for future reference.looks like a pain in the ass to do.
is there a more detailed Sherman Veteran tire change vid on YT? this shows the basics, but leaves out details (like actually seeing the tire being freed from the case for instance). I have a tire change ahead of me (mine came with a flawed tire), and I'd like a more technical video to follow
Wow that’s a lot of work for a tire change.
that's what I was thinking... knobby it is!
@Kuji I think new street tyre skidded and the inner tube did not had a chance to survive?
Kuji, Can you recommend a good tire for Gotway RS - I can't find h666, maybe I should mount a Sherman street tire, I am not sure what Michelin tire would fit either. Thank you!
Someone (maybe Marty?) Was saying he suspects the "20 measurement comes from the knobby tire being a half inch larger in diameter than the typical 18x3 tires. Did you end up installing the 18x3 H-666 or is it a slightly different measurement?
Does that tyre have more clearence then offroad. The clearence looks huge. :O
Does the wheel need balancing like a car wheel after changing a tyre? Thanks.
the tire it came with is specifically design for the gyroscope counter weight system, plus the thicker tires absorb more of the bumps in the road and provide better peripheral stability when leaning left and right. but then again, you can go window shopping for similar size, thickness, and weight tires with better
grip sutures or what ever you call the rubber protrusions in the wheel that help with traction on the ground.
I'm curious what would happen if you catapult forward crashing onto the ground at 60mph with this wheel. I'm sure you full body armor will shatter and definitely break many bones.
if it ever does happen, turn into a feetle position, and try to roll int the ground to absorb the impact.
I crashed on one going 42mph. You don't slam into the ground, you go sliding, just like a motorcycle.
Can you order this with different types of tires? I would guess not, but it’s seems like it would be a simple option to add.
How long did that tire change take? 3 hours?
Kuji, what are reputable sellers of EUCs on aliexpress, pls?
Hi. Im trying to get a photo of a cross section of a sherman nobbly trye?
From the standard 60mm by 375mm rim.
Thanks for any Help.
Sounds like the tube was slightly twisted (Binding) inside the tire, it didn't straighten out when it got inflated.
Recommend rubbing baby talcum powder before installing the tube. Keeps it from binding up.
Can you review the jyroball !!!
what is the easiest electric unicycle to change a tire
None
How can you balance a tire when you replace a EUC tire?
The inner tube must have some air in it when installing the outer tire. The tube ended up twisted or pinched between the tire and the rim -- and was chafed until exploded .
yep, i've learned this the hard way too.
Should have used a bit of talc on the tube to make it seat better
The first thing that poped into my mind was how balanced will this tire be. Given how fast that thing can go and how much work is involved in changing a tire shouldn't that be an important thing to do? what about going tubeless? wouldn't that solve a lot of problem? are there tubeless tires for these little guys?
It's like you take it apart and pray 🙏 it works after.....
Any success?
I recently ordered an IRC TR-1 tire (in size 2.75-14) for my S18. I'm looking for good videos other than Kingsong's official video, but having a hard time. I might have to review some dirtbike tire swap vids to get a better idea of what I'll be doing.
As others mentioned, I think the thing failed because you didn't set the bead properly.
hm, why not to solder some good connectors to quick release phase wires?
😆 I feel your pain......
Every time that I have to change out tires on my car, the wheels with the new tires need to be balanced? Do we need to balance out the wheel with a new tire change on an EUC, in general? Potentially, it can make the EUC less wobbly at high speed! Does anyone know?
Hope you fix it soon buddy.
What a raging pain in the bawlz...
Maybe some preventative measure could be made so you don't get a flat tire. Like adding lining and putting some self sealant inside the tube.
Bad luck my friend....😥😰
The Good Old Fashioned Unicycles Are Much Easer to Fix a Flat Tire,
Can i have a link for the helmet?
Where did you get the information for the tire change was there a Ikea how to build information packet of instructions or did u call a number. I don't have one! I'm just living vicariously through everybody who owns a Sherman!
PS. by doing this tire change to violate any insurance policies you may have on this???
No friendliness whatsoever indeed.
They need to put more thought into that design. Tyre changing is a standard maintenance requirement and you should not have to do that level of complex electrical disassembly.
need to check the tire balancing
What happened to the tire in the end kuji?
Was it punctured?
I think I didn't seat it well enough. I didn't pump it up to high pressures before riding
did you have the Chinese version plssssssssssss ?
Try putting air in the tube before install. Also put the tube inside the tire before you get the tire on the rim.
Like any tire change, just ride flat for a few meters before inflating it to get it seated.
Thats sucks man. Good luck with the next innertube
is there a way to ensure that you get a street tire when you order one of these? i realize that it's possible to swap a tire, but it's unclear to me if there's a way to request a type of tire when you check out online. the way i understand it now is that when you order a sherman, you're just gambling to see what type of tire you get when it arrives
e-wheels from usa will offer street tyre option. If you cant wait, Chickway will get you a model with one right away.
Use a resistor to discharge the current. It will avoid the spark.
Yep, thats better than metal tweezers. Im gonna guess that those who have through hole resistors lying around also probably already knew that.
Can you send me a weather report of that will if you have a spare part🤔
I'm surprised they don't have a tubeless setup on a spokeless rim.
When my preordered Sherman is ready from eWheels in about 3-weeks, per a recent update email I received from them, I will have the option to elect a street tire or the off-road tire. I think I will elect the street tire and have it come already installed straight from Veteran...
I find the knobby more stable and easier to turn at high speeds on the street. If your speeds are typically
@@KujiRolls So far my speeds have been
@kuji - have you tried both original tires? Of not, what tire did you try? Badly build tyres could have ovality/outrun and be prone to unbalanced rubber, needing balance weights. 😕
Can I make this bike by using 3000 watt hub motor sir help me
