Some quality work there!
Thank you kindly. Glad you liked it.
Looks like a perfect fit for Tim. Very nice and thanks for sharing.
The first time I saw the seat I also thought it was backwards. The reason is because it looks like a banana seat for bicycles.
seat looks wrong in a bike perspective, but it's obviosly in the right position man! I love when people costumize their things!
Very nice find on a quick release mechanism that’s off the shelf. Thank you for sharing links to the parts. Great production value in your video too.
Thanks for watching!
Dude! Flying RC while riding behind it! Genius!
🤙
what a great video production and sound quality... many other tubers just don't have the microphone down but you both have sound and content and topic learning.. keep up the great work
Amazing riding✌️💯👍
Great (skydio 2?) shots. Sherman sounds like beast coming down the road. Seat looks best I've seen.
Yep, those were taken by the Skydio 2.
great job man!
Thanks!
Love The vid! It looks like the seat had a lot of work done to it that was not mentioned.
Awesome 😎 thanks brother 🙏
Подушечки конечно, не упасть бы со стула от смеха.
Только я не увидел, как он подсветку сам подключал. САМ. А не снял видосик как ему всё подключили, а он ни в зуб ногой, нихрена не знает , но выкатываться сидя могёт и потому достоин мильенов 100 лайков.
I was thinking that you were using a Skydio2 Drone, I was very surprised that it was the DJI Mavic 2, WOW Great video, Best looking Veteran Sherman I have seen since I started looking at EUC 2 weeks ago, never rode a unicycle, always wanted too and now I am seeing EUC version, I really want to get on board now...
sick build
Thank you
Love the seat
Great video man. And great upgrades. I’m new to this and got got a used Veteran Sherman with 300 miles. It has the stock seat but I really like this seat. I may get it.
Cool seat
Thanks, it worked out quite nicely.
10:52 Fighter jet sounds on arrival!
Love the seat! Best one I've seen so far. Need a vid.. how to make ;)
Thank you. I’m working on a 3D model that I can share with the community.
@@BayAreaFPV that would awesome! Thanks
11:00 to 11:20 = Freaking awesome ! Have you ever experienced any wobbles on the Sherman ?
No real wobbles. The Sherman is rock solid. A VERY well built machine.
Amazing work. I love the seat. Looks more like a saddle. Now you just need some My Little Pony Decals for the side :) Genius design. You didn’t mention the stand pegs (maybe discussed in another video?) Those look brilliant as well.
Brig back the old sku banana set and rock that...lol.
My name is Julian Rilveria I got into a car crash in 2010 and really I'm thankfully to be alive. Wasn't supposed to be here being that my car smashed in to those steel octagon cement high wire poles and ripped in half. Next i woke up in hospital thinking everything was a dream having everything happened so fast being impact was instant.
Leaving me paralyzed from my belly button down.
Any how, I've been thinking in investing into one of these and I instantly thought if it had a seat this would work for me. Then bam I saw this vlog on the veteran Sherman seat and this would make a killing as an attachment for this specific E.U.C. electric unicycle. How can I get a hold of this seat and attachment for the Veteran Sherman. Another question if I may ask is whats the company name of the euc or can I get it off of Amazon
Thanks for sharing your design on thingiverse. May I know what filament did you use and the settings? thanks.
I like that a lot. I tried Marty's bike seat on the Monster Pro and with it leaning forward, it's just as you say, I feel like I'm going to fall off the front of it.
The designs of these EUCs are still not well done. Any seat that will come with these things should be close to your standing height, all a rider should do is fall back into the seat if you want to take a load off.
I would love to design one of these things but need to buy one 1st to understand the tech. I think a lot of people will love EUCs.
Fun video! Is that Santa Teresa park in San Jose?
Can I get that seat in EUrope? ...We have Batman but can we have the Sherman seat? Inspiring stuff mate.Kudos and respect.
Wondering how I could get the bar for the seat printed. 🤔
awesome mod!!! how do you cut the LED Light channels at angles? do you have black smoky diffuser on the angles path?
Yes, the diffuser is all the way around the bends. I will do a follow up video going over some of the items closer. It seems there’s a lot of interest in it.
How did you get the clamp on did you drill into the wood? I’m looking at downloading your file and doing this just don’t know how to get clamps on the base
🤘🤠👍
Hurry with the seat 💺 bro 😎

Cool
HI THERE, NICE VIDEO, THANKS. THOSE (RAM MOUNTS Torque Medium Rail Base) DO I HAVE TU BUY 4 OF THEM AT THAT PRICE? WHAT SIZE SHOULD I GET? CAN I PUT 8 OF THEM ON?
Hi, was the piece of ABS to cover the front of the tape printed?
love the design...is he operating a drone while riding because that is a great idea
What mount is the seat cushion attached too? 3d printed? I'm not talking about the cold shoe clamps. But what connects to the cold shoe clamps? Sick mods dude!
Thank you, and I have a follow-up video coming VERY soon that will cover things in greater detail.
I'd love to emulate this seat on my own sherman. Although it seems you may have left the plastic ribbled mode out that attachs underneath the seat together with how they would attach to this part of the seat? Any insight to this would be amazing if you care to share that is. Great video nonetheless 👏👍🏻..
I'm working on a model that will make things clear. If it all turns out well I will make a follow up vid soon.
Nice one 👍🏻
I would like a seat like this but I don’t know what to use for the clips
👍
The shoe mounts are a little loose on my sherman. Was there something to make it tighter?
**edit** I noticed you have tape or something wrapped around the bar on both sides and then have the mounts attacted. What's on there?
Correct, it's Gorilla tape. It serves a dual purpose. It protects the bar from scratches and adds a tiny bit of diameter so the clamp is snug.

That's a banana seat for a bike , you have it backwards but if that works for you it's all good.
I see a pic of the motor bike that it's on and the high part of the seat is tilted down and the long part is tilted up.
check out banana seats from the 70's.
It is a seat from a SurRon electric bike. The reason it looks like the rear is elevated in the pic is because there’s nobody on the bike. Add an adults weight to it and it changes slightly. The same goes for the Sherman. While riding, the Sherman will be slightly tilted forward, therefore making the seat closer to level.

@@BayAreaFPV If it feels comfortable for you That's all that matters.
It has to be comfortable for the rider and no one else.
Do you sell the base that lifts the seat higher?
Where is this in the Bay Area? Would love to take the onewheels out there
This was a combo of Baylands Park and Santa Teresa County Park.
Hola, that’s a pimped out VS looks amazing..
One question what are those ball mounts on the crash bars? I’m looking to set up my VS with something like that
Need to protect my investment as much as possible..
keep the vids coming .. keep safe.
Thank you for the kind words and I am glad you enjoyed the video. The links to the ball clamps and all other pieces are in the video description. (The ball mounts are the first link).
@@BayAreaFPV thank you for the info and I now have it saved on my amazon ready for orderting ... keep the vids coming keep safe brotha
Great job on the seat! Looks great. I'm planning to buy it and try to dyi a replica. It's not clear what is that platform you're using for the the seat to be placed on. Is it 3D printed? What is that? 🤔 Can you share please?
It isn't 3D printed, though I am currently working on a model that would enable this. More to come
@@BayAreaFPV Thanks man, appreciate it
I'd love to see a video on how you wired the l.e.ds in fact, I'd be willing to pay you for some of your time on the phone to walk me through it...
Did you make the piece of plastic that the seat sits on?
I did make it, yes. There is a video coming VERY soon that will detail everything.
Looks super fun! How fast is it?
People have reached speeds higher than 50mph on the Sherman.
@@BayAreaFPV man that is realy fu*#in fast 🤪... Need One😁
HI THERE, GREAT VIDEO, THANKS. THOSE RAM BALL MOUNTS IM ABOUT TO BUY, DO THOSE WORK WHEN A SHERMAN GOES DOWN? IF A SHERMAN DOES GO DOWN WITH THOSE, DO YOU HAVE TO REPLACE THEM? I SEE IT SAYS YOU MUST BUY 4 OF THEM? THE (Bar Clamp Cold Shoe Mounts) MAY I PRESUME YOU MUST BUY 4 OF THOSE TO MOUNT THE RAM BALL MOUNTS? THANKS.
The bar clamp cold shoe mounts are only needed if you are going to be using/making the seat. If you get the RAM mounts for protection in the event of a spill, then you will not need the cold shoe mounts. Hope that makes sense.
@@BayAreaFPV THANKS FOR THAT. ONE MORE QUESTION: HOW IS EWHEELS ON THEIR WARRANTY? I LIVE IN HAWAII AND I KNOW I CAN EXPECT SOME KIND OF PROBLEM.
@@ewheelsmobilityscooterew-3288 Jason is great and will take care of you. Send me an email at bayareafpv.com/contact if you would like to talk more and I can put you in contact with them ahead of your purchase.
@@BayAreaFPV ALL PAID UP, WAITING FOUR MONTHS, ANY DAY EXPECT DELIVERY. THANKS
I wanna know that neon suit he’s wearing I want one
Can we have a file for fusion and not stl I need to machine it . Thanks
Is the float seat or regular Sur Ron seat
Regular Sur Ron seat. Link in description if you're looking for one.
Do u sell the seat?
are you willing to sell this custom seat? and if it is, is it possible to accomodate even higher seat for people like 6'2 or taller?
I am 6'3" and I think the height of the seat is perfect. It could however be made as tall as a person wants. I am not in a position to be able to make the seats and sell them at the moment. However I have made the STL files available to the public. Those can be used for 3D printing the seat, or simply as a guide to make it out of another material. If I do end up offering the seat for sale, I will keep you in mind.
@@BayAreaFPV Thanks that sounds like amazing!!!
Why not SP110 LED controller?
Had this one already and figured might as well use it.
Just brought Sherman max can I pay you to do the lights and seat for me?
Thank you for thinking highly enough of the work on my wheel to ask me if I would mod yours. Let me make it easy… if you happen to be within 150miles of Seattle we can likely work something out. Otherwise, I’m afraid it would cost you far too much for shipping and whatnot.
Costs $5,000 in Canada
When I see people sit on an EUC, a small part of me wonders why they just didn't get a foldable e-bike...
There’s a bit to be said about that… I can see why you might say that, but once you’ve mastered riding the EUC sitting and can do so at 30+ mph, it’s a whole new feeling of freedom. 🤙
When you ride for hours and hours its nice to beable to sit...
Is that a Chinese wheel?
They all are made in China.
Do you slide back at all. I think I should be shaped like a banana
Leaning forward to start and stay moving evens things out.
Seems confortable. I just dont like the look if it. 🤔
Only have KS-s18 but would purchase Sherman for a 25k/world trek with a group-we can gofundme com...let me know
Trying to watch from Airplane height just doesn't work if you are trying to show your sitting and standing transitions. Yeah, drone footage is cool if you are trying to demonstrate the drone, not very usable for this video however.
Thanks for the feedback. Will take that into consideration for future videos.
Your seat is on backwards
Of course it is. Made it that way just for you. :)
@@BayAreaFPV Swing by my place later and ill show you how to install correctly :)

Nope. You put the seat on backwards, bro. Turn that shit around and then we're talkin'. Just look at it. IT'S BACKWARDS!
It is a seat from a SurRon electric bike. The reason it looks like the rear is elevated in the pic is because there’s nobody on the bike. Add an adults weight to it and it changes slightly. The same goes for the Sherman. While riding, the Sherman will be slightly tilted forward, therefore making the seat closer to level.

So, you propose grabbing your ass for stability instead of in front of you?.. 🤔 I think I would rather leave the seat as it is and drop the grab assing....lol.🤣
