Nice sensible review. I’m new to EUC’s. Been riding for 2 months. I learned on the MTEN4 but now have the A2 750 W/h. I really like the A2. It is a well made wheel and the waterproofing is essential for the UK because it rains most of the time. I’ve switched both speed alarms off and set the PWM alarm to 70%. It starts beeping at 21-22 mph so I ride between 18-20 mph which is fast enough for canal towpaths and is still fun at that speed. I will keep the wheel for a year and learn all the riding skills with it, including backwards riding before I get a faster wheel. I like the T4 but would prefer Begode to offer a waterproof version of this wheel.
I like the way you are learning EUC. You are not rushing it. Back in 2015, my first wheel Fastwheel Eva Pro’s max speed was 12 mph. I sold it 3 months later since it was so underwhelming. My next wheel was KS14C with max speed 19 mph. I rode that for over a year. My next wheel was KS18L with max speed 28 mph. I had that for 1.5 year. Next wheel was the Nikola with max speed 35 mph and now I have the V13. I really did not have a choice but to learn slowly. 😂 I learned so many nuances in riding and appreciating the wheel as well as preventing a fall during my slow progression. I know some usually go straight to the greatest and fastest wheel ever. They then encounter a wobble and crash. You are doing the right thing in acclimating gradually to EUC. I am hoping Begode or Leaperkim will make a more waterproof and powerful wheel too. Enjoy the A2 and have safe rides!
I ordered the A2 when it first came out for my first EUC, then before I had even taken delivery, the Marty debacle made headlines and I found myself facing the EUC learning curve on "The Assassin". I did manage to get over the hump and have grown to like, (but not love), the A2. It is super maneuverable, I can do figure 8s in my Livingroom, and it is a surprisingly good hill climber, but any speed over 20mph and it gets quite squirrely. Of course I am plotting an upgrade but I plan to keep the Little Bull (as I call it), because it really is a great little low intensity cruiser.
It’s easy to outgrow the A2 as a first wheel. My first wheel back in 2015 had a a max speed of 12 mph. lol. I sold that wheel 3 months later. My next wheel was the KS14C with a max speed of 20 mph. I really loved the power and the speed (back then it was powerful and speedy). That same portability and nimbleness made me want to get the A2. The KS14C and A2 are about the same size. You should definitely keep the A2 despite the limited speed and power. It’s a great backup portable wheel and is awesome for mellow riding. The A2 is perfect for me when I want a different type of ride versus my V13 where it requires more legwork and upper body mechanics.
I started last May on the mten4.. ordered approximately a week before the a2 was announced and I was livid. I upgraded to a commander mini (mini bull) :3
Great review. I really want to get into the EUC world. I am looking hard at the A2 (I guess the A2+ is the one with the 50S batteries). I want something as a beginner that I can ride for at least a couple/few years, thinking 20 mph is plenty for me. What do you think about the Mten5? That is the other wheel I am looking at. They are both very similar it seems to me. Any input would be greatly appreciated from you or anyone else reading this. I was also thinking of starting with the Inmotion E20 but am scared that it would be a waste of money, starting with that and having to buy something else within weeks. I also like the Falcon but the cost versus it being my first wheel, I don't know. Thank you and safe riding. (I'm 52 by the way 🙂)
I have one of the early 600wh A2's from eWheels, I'm guessing it has the 50s batteries, I also paid $1350 for it, it is rock solid and fun, I use it primarily as a yard/parking lot wheel, sort of wish I had the newer 750wh 50e street tire version but happy enough with mine. I also have the Nik+ with replacement molicel upgrade so I'm covered, now, I need another suspension wheel, I've had a few, the Lynx is tempting but I'll be holding off for later versions, too many times I've been an early adopter...
Before the 50s was standard for the A2 at EWheels, they used the 40T batteries. Those batteries were better than the 50e batteries with regards to voltage sag. The 40Ts are known to have decreased capacity though. For what we use the A2 for you should have no problem. I have had the Nikola also before and also had Litech installed by me through the battery replacement program of EWheels. I am no stranger to being an early adopter too. I bought the first batch KS18L as well as the first batch V13 too. So far I have never had any issues with either wheels. The price certainly has dropped by $200 on the V13 now though but at least I was able to enjoy the V13 sooner and in all its glory. I was lucky that the motor bolts were already replaced before receiving my V13. Price has also dropped by $200. Wheels are constantly refreshing. That Lynx sure looks very promising but I agree with waiting it out until more iterations of it get produced.
@@AdamU1016 Yeah shortly after typing that, I checked my box, 40t it is, so not bad but I would like to have the extra capacity but I'm happy. I do like the looks of that street tire on yours, my knobby is good on grass but not great on road. I did the molicel's in my Nik+, cost $500 for the upgrade even with the credit for my replacements, I guess it's worth it, I plan on keeping that wheel. Yeah, you gotta pay to play I guess, no one said this was a cheap hobby, I'm just going to try to exercise a little more patience on the new shiny stuff.
I've had the King song 16s for a couple of years and I love it it's so comfortable. I ride it to work everyday. And otherwise I am usually with my dog when riding. I've had the Falcon for about 5 months and I don't hardly ride it.16S 10 xs more comfortable
@@arieswaters Even with suspensions on the Falcon, you still feel more comfortable on the 16S? I have ridden the 16S and it certainly does feel very stable on it. At a certain speed the smaller wheel becomes sketchy too.

Thanks for the kind words. I am glad I was able to give you some useful information about the EUC. It really is a great activity. I find it relaxing and exciting at the same time. It is also a great stress reliever. If you’re from NJ you might see me on group rides. We post rides on our FB Garden State EUC group. I have ridden with eskaters and Onewheelers and I have learned from them too. Have safe rides!
My first wheel was the v12 hs and I have mastered the wheel now. I have a onewheel pint x but I can’t go back to the surfer stance after being spoiled by the euc. I’m really looking at getting a a2 because it’s cheap as a second wheel.
The A2 is a great second wheel for my huge V13. The A2 allows me to just have a mellow, slow ride anytime. Whether it’s downtime at work, end of work, during vacation, chores around my house, learning backwards riding which I still haven’t learned after 9 years of EUC 🤣, etc. the A2 fills all those needs my primary wheel would not be able to. It’s also a cheap wheel. 🥳
@@AdamU1016thank for your reply man. Have you ever had any cutouts or issues with your a2. I ended up ordering the a2 standard (50e) from Jason at ewheels.
I drew the same conclusion with Marty's incident and labeled it under occupational/hobby hazards. To reduced risk, it's better to master fewer wheels, know it in and out and specific usage. Sustaining power to the wheel is essential to EUC, therefore, I would never get small wheels.
Since Roger found no faults with Marty’s A2, the only possible cause was an overlean cutout. Marty has tons of EUCs and he just overestimated his A2’s power. I overtorqued my MTen3 before and at 200 lbs. it was not that difficult. I was lucky I had wrist guards or else I would have fractured my wrist on the hard pavement. My first EUC was a 12 inch wheel and I loved the portability and nimbleness of a small wheel. My use for the A2 is to take it to work and ride when I am free as well as on vacation when my humongous V13 would just be too impractical. The A2 is perfect for doing tricks such as backward riding which I still have not yet learned. Slow, mellow cruising would be another great use for the A2.
I own an A2, rode 300km and no issue for now. My only complain is if you have the knobby tire (noisy, makes the wheel a little wobbly) and the weight. My top speed is around 21-22mph (fully charged battery) but it tends to be lazy and stays at 20mph or less. Get the trolley, it will help !
Who is the Assassin 2 for you ask? Well in my case, its for the Great Canadian Winter Wonderland. Its my snow sled play toy. I figure if it can survive as a sub, it can survive snow sleet & freezing rain. I gathered its also quite well protected with stock pads & a steel frame so I have confidence its gonna live thru a few icy situations. Being a Canuck, I identify as a polar bear in winter 😅
@@AdamU1016 I'm also in the Falcon preorder line, but I'm having a hard time deciding what tire to get. I prefer the feel and silence of street tires but I fear slipping on wet pavement after the treads wear out. My 18XL has 6000km with the stock tire and 1/8" tread left which I only ride on dry roads. The only knobby I own is on my mten4, which I use 99% for low speed sidewalk crawls and yard work. Logically in my head the knobby offers more grip overtime, but the tire noise is what worries me most as I commute through elderly residential streets a lot. Falcon will be for my wet weather commutes, but staying 95% on asphalt. How has that 3.5" street tire on your A2 treated you , and which option would you recommend? Thank you

as a first time learner with 230 pounds i will probably turn off the 1 and 2 alarm...what pwm should i tturn on with my weight...80 or should i go with 70...?i was lean to t4 but my country passet a new law that i need crash insurance after PEVs with 25kmh and 25kg...i think the a2 is the only unicycle below the mten series that i can buy with the bigger wheel....which would transition me into biggers wheels then...
@@FarkyJ I love my A2. I weigh 200 lbs and it can move me around with ease. I don’t go more than 32 kmh (20 mph) just to be on the safe side. You can set the PWM to 80% and you will be fine. Between the A2 and T4 you will have more buffer with the T4 before reaching cutout. The T4 has a bigger battery and stronger motor so it will move you around better as well as less chance of cutout if you decide to be aggressive in riding. Can the A2 handle you with your 230 lb weight? Of course it can. However, in terms of safety, you will have more buffer capacity with the T4 as stated earlier. You mentioned about the 25 kmh and greater than 25 kg weight as a limitation before needing insurance so with that criteria the A2 will fit the bill. With regards to the speed limitation by your country, the greater speed capability of the T4 just means it will be safer and your country doesn’t have to know that it can easily go over 30 mph. However, the T4 is heavier at 32 kg so you won’t be able to hide that spec. The main caveat with the A2 is just to stay under 20 mph and don’t be too aggressive in your riding. The A2 is very portable and can easily fit in a regular gym locker too. So if you want a wheel for mellow rides, then the A2 is perfect. I have the InMotion V13 when I really want to ride aggressively. If you want something you can be aggressive with and not spend too much, then the T4 would be for you.

RUclipsr experienced that too. If I understood his video correctly, he concluded that the right-hand button was occasionally sticking in the "down" position and that that turned off the wheel.
If the wheel was on for the fire incident that is user error. What happened to Marty I'm not so sure. A nice topic to cover and get the facts and opinions to justly judge.
The fire issue was definitely user error. I spoke to Marty and he insists the A2 randomly just cut out on him. Roger’s inspection showed no hardware issues. Roger has ridden that same wheel under bad conditions with no cutout ever. Therefore, my conclusion is just get the best battery possible for the A2, ride within the speed and power specs and always gear up. I love my A2 and recommend it over my previous MTen3 or the current MTen4.
Smaller wheels have their place. The portability is a big plus. One just has to change their riding style in switching between different size wheels. As a 200 pounder myself, I try not to push the A2 too much. As a wheel for mellow rides and for doing tricks, the A2 fits the bill.
I for one think the falcon will put a2 and other small non suspension wheels to rest. I have crashed due to mten 3 not having suspension and not having an area for installing pads. You hit something and the wheel stays behind and you go flying off. Not cool.
Yeah that Falcon looks really tempting but then it will be wider and will definitely not fit in a gym locker anymore. The portability factor is just not as strong. Despite that, the Falcon is a sweet wheel.
Marty is unfortunately what is refered to as a "goober" and on top of that he is a completely awful rider. What happened to him was rider error not some mysterious technical issue. I would not worry too much about what he said, or even his opinion on wheels in general given that he can't ride to a level anywhere approaching the limits of basically any wheel.
Yeah I think it was rider error that caused the fall. I once overtorqued my MTen3 when I was teaching my young nephew. Wrist guards saved me. Back then I had the Nikola and MTen3. It’s easy to sometimes overestimate a small wheel’s capabilities. Marty has over 10 EUCs. I honestly think he just overestimated what the A2 is capable of.

The fire issue was definitely user error. I spoke to Marty and he insists the A2 randomly just cut out on him. Roger’s inspection showed no hardware issues. Roger has ridden that same wheel under bad conditions with no cutout ever. Therefore, my conclusion is just get the best battery possible for the A2, ride within the speed and power specs and always gear up. I love my A2 and recommend it over my previous MTen3 or the current MTen4.
Smaller wheels like this are always a risk, especially if you are at a higher weight
Smaller wheels have their place. The portability is a big plus. One just has to change their riding style in switching between different size wheels. As a 200 pounder myself, I try not to push the A2 too much. As a wheel for mellow rides and for doing tricks, the A2 fits the bill.
I for one think the falcon will put a2 and other small non suspension wheels to rest. I have crashed due to mten 3 not having suspension and not having an area for installing pads. You hit something and the wheel stays behind and you go flying off. Not cool.
Yeah that Falcon looks really tempting but then it will be wider and will definitely not fit in a gym locker anymore. The portability factor is just not as strong. Despite that, the Falcon is a sweet wheel.
Marty is unfortunately what is refered to as a "goober" and on top of that he is a completely awful rider. What happened to him was rider error not some mysterious technical issue. I would not worry too much about what he said, or even his opinion on wheels in general given that he can't ride to a level anywhere approaching the limits of basically any wheel.
Yeah I think it was rider error that caused the fall. I once overtorqued my MTen3 when I was teaching my young nephew. Wrist guards saved me. Back then I had the Nikola and MTen3. It’s easy to sometimes overestimate a small wheel’s capabilities. Marty has over 10 EUCs. I honestly think he just overestimated what the A2 is capable of.
