    correction: mixed up 1:57 with 2:05. loosen the grub screw first before the rod removal! cheers
    Protip from MrMalaman: "I give up tapping. I simply drilled slightly smaller than the diameter of the studs and screwed them in directly, the aluminum is soft enough for the thread to do itself, it's tight, it holds very strong, no need for locite. it's a lot less work."

    If you want to get your tap started perfectly straight, you can put it in the drill press, and start it by turning the chuck by hand, and using the chuck key for more leverage until it slips in the chuck, then finish tapping with the wrench.
    Nice job!

    Considering mountain bike pedals with screw threw studs have been around for probably a while now, I cannot believe more studded EUC pedals don't offer that option, even amongst the "best" aftermarket pedals. The e-RIDES Wolverine pedals I have, have the smooth screw heads sitting on top, it's so dumb!!
    Cheers, glad to hear some sanity in the EUC world. I hope manufactures take notice.

    nice vidéo, thank you. I would like to contribute, I have already installed these studs on 2 wheels. First of all, I think grinding gently with an electric grinder is also a good way, maybe more easy. but above all, I give up tapping. I simply drilled slightly smaller than the diameter of the studs and screwed them in directly, the aluminum is soft enough for the thread to do itself, it's tight, it holds very strong, no need for locite. it's a lot less work.

      @@jonoeuc thank you. you did a perfect job! I suggest a shortcut that won't appear in any manual, but works in some cases. Because even if the thread is weaker with this method (because you have to drill a little wider than if you wanted to tap), it's enough: there is no tensile force on the screws.

    Glad to say I got the Michelin pilot street 2 installed on my lynx. Fair warning the street tire that came stolk had a wicked bead adhesive. Harder to break the seal than any other part of the tire change. Michelin went on easy after the 2 hour struggle with the adhesive... Still gotta test it out but it looks good.

      @@jonoeucI dont have the tracking as what I have before with stolk tire. I used a heat gun with no luck. I had 2 people i I sat on the wheel while the other just put all his weight 240lbs with the tire spoon and it all came off at the same time. I was trying just to dislodge 1 area but it seems it breaks the adhesive as 1 unit. If that helps anybody. Putting the micheline was a piece of cake. I do not recomend putting adhesive on the bead. I used the tire lube and its good on there.

    Nice job. I have seen another video where they just grinded the top of the studs with a drimmel to give them an edge.

    • @jonoeuc
      @jonoeuc  7 месяцев назад

      Yeah that's a nice quick option you can try. This option is far better for several reasons (except weakening the pedals).
      1 - They're now length adjustable
      2 - custom stud layout to fit my requirements
      3 - They're longer and grippier than ground stock studs

    Yes, much cheaper than buying replacements. I bought the replacements at a cost of about 180 USD. The stock pedals on the Patton are not great for technical riding. While this is not expensive for the parts, the additional tools, if they need to be purchased, are not a small expense.

    • @jonoeuc
      @jonoeuc  7 месяцев назад

      Absolute minimum tools are what's required for pedal removal.
      The pedals can even stay on the euc if you're only doing the outer studs.
      For the studs job. a hand drill, drill bit (4.5mm I'm guessing) and the studs. that's it!
      The idea as suggested by a comment here. Is to not tap the holes. Simply screw the studs in!
      Hope that helps.

    Hi, is it possible to make vidéo about your seat, how do you make it and little review ?

    • @jonoeuc
      @jonoeuc  7 месяцев назад +1

      yes! I'l be showing a super affordable version for $14aud (materials cost). Which doesn't require ANY sewing.
      Then I'll lead into a self promotion ad since I want to sell them in the future. The hold up atm is because I'm designing a 3D printed rear handle seat connector piece.

    Is it just those two little screws holding the pedals on?

    • @jonoeuc
      @jonoeuc  2 месяца назад

      not quite, each rod has a fairly hefty grub/set screw. The end caps also prevent the rods escaping to the outside but not towards the interior.

    At 2:35 what did you put in the front hole of the wheel? Is that foam?

    • @jonoeuc
      @jonoeuc  7 месяцев назад +1

      After removing the stock jump pads there is a big hole staight into the case. I made a little mold and filled it with silicon and a pull handle from a ziptie!
      3rd picture is what i'll be doing next. cut the jump pad along the teeth to fit the original plug AND your power pads. Replacement parts if you want them back $20usd @eWheels. credit @jon wall

    How much does this option degrade the strength of the pedals? I'm afraid that if I drill holes, the pedals will become brittle.

    • @jonoeuc
      @jonoeuc  7 месяцев назад

      Unknown yet, time will tell. I dropped from a height of 3 steps onto concrete as a first strength test.
      Also consider the rider weight. I'm maxing around 77kg (170lbs)

      I think that the hard pedal mode in the LYNX is much harder than SS and you have to make more effort, try to put it at 50%, make sure that the HS is activated and all lameterized just in case, also the configuration of the pads is Important, if you want to accelerate fast and easy you must put them more advanced, try this and please warn me
