I will probably never buy a one wheel, but I find myself subscribing to channels like yours because I'm so fascinated by the skill and the passion you riders have for them. I really enjoy your channel. You're well rounded and impart good information to the public. Take care and stay safe out there.

    As a raving fanboy for this company, and this great wheel. I love the review. I'm so glad the company is hearing all the complaints, and suggestion to making the next batch a better one. I just can't wait till I can afford mine so it could replace my dead gas guzzler that I use to use to go around town with. Since now that it would cost to repair my truck more than the Sherman's price tag, I'm focusing all my efforts first to get the wheel. I don't know how long I could hold my patients in saving for this because I really need it now to replace my truck. Again love the review, and I'm so happy you have one.

Feeling that ultimate end level speed and range as a road cruiser. Going to keep an eye on Veteran as I save up money to see if the rumors of their soon to be announced suspension wheel come true this year.

    • @AlienRides

    Great video mate and an honest review, I received my Sherman a few days ago and I just look the military hardware looks, in terms of acceleration try it in soft mode, way easier to get moving quickly :-) also if you loosen the front headlight so it's still tight but able to move it by hand if you do tumble it the light gets shoved back instead of getting broken. Enjoy the tank!! 👍

      Here's an alternate point of view. It's a horrible wheel for a first one. First of all you're going to pretty much beat the shit out of it as a first wheel, everyone does. Better to do that with a used, cheap wheel you don't mind damaging. Next, this is a wheel you can get in big trouble with fast if you don't know what you are doing. I rode motorcycles for 25 years before buying an EUC and it was pretty much no help. Different skill set. Start with something used and cheap, learn on it, beat it up and then consider going to something more powerful.

      @@AlienRides I definitely want to be able to cruise at 40 mph feeling safe and I heard the Sherman with it's extra weight and being very balanced makes it feel more stable at that speed if you have the coordination skills and are willing to learn. But would you say a scooter is better when hitting a pothole as you can grab the handle for stability or the EUC for its larger wheel to roll over (in the Sherman crash video I think it cutout from a small bump he hit so the scooter is probably safer)?

    • @AlienRides
      @AlienRides  4 года назад

      ABC 123 it’s interesting, the closer you get to the cutout, the more dangerous it becomes on an EUC. You do make a good point about the tire though. I’d say that cruising at 40 is maybe safer on the Sherman, but 45-50 is safer on a scooter.

    • @asdf1234_.
      @asdf1234_. 4 года назад +1

      @@AlienRides Yeah I figured the Sherman is safe for keeping up with 35mph traffic where it's likely going faster like 40mph but not on roads faster otherwise cutoff is an issue especially on lower battery. And it would not be the best for sustained speeds but on a scooter I'd be willing to sustain 50+mph if I found a place and me and the scooter could handle it.

    if this things had suspensions, it would be undoubtly the best all rounded wheel on the market.
    but you can DIY yourself, the suspension would have to in the exterior, and the pedals moved up more above ground level to allow
    compression from the pistons for shock absorption which gets the pedals closer to the ground.
