    Nice Video Again (as always!) Marty! I don’t know how you have the patience to carry that big selfie stick on that long ride, especially on that difficult terrain, (not to mention production and editing time) Great, great stuff - well worth the wait!
    Really appreciate the info on how these wheels operate in actual usage. Thanks Again!

    Lovely blue skies and great weather, i'm so envious right now lol! Just hoping we get a proper summer in Britain this year so I can take my V10 on a few trails.
    Until then looking forward to seeing more of beautiful California in your next video 😊

    I have to hand it to you Martyr, your enthusiasm is infectious. One point though, you were extolling the big Z10 tyre but I did not see the other wheels struggling anymore than you.

    • @ElectricUnicycles
      @ElectricUnicycles  6 лет назад +3

      I could have done a better job explaining at the time. What I meant, regarding the Z10 tire, is that it feels easier to navigate these kinds of trails vs doing it with other wheels. I've ridden this same trail with my MSuper, Tesla, and ACM. They all make it just fine but the experience wasn't nearly as pleasant.
      You can do pretty much anything with any wheel, but some wheels are better/easier than others at particular tasks. In my opinion, the Z10 excels in rough trails like this. Where it does suffer is the low pedals relative to MSX.

    • @ElectricUnicycles
      @ElectricUnicycles  4 года назад

      It's a great wheel but comes with a very high risk of no after sales support. I only recommend it to people that wouldn't be too bothered at losing ~$2k. But as a wheel, I also enjoy riding mine.

    Hey Marty... Looking at getting the KS 18XL next month. On another video you tested this wheel. Does it also do the battery regenerating when traveling down hill?

    • @ElectricUnicycles
      @ElectricUnicycles  6 лет назад +1

      All EUCs recharge the battery during braking (going downhill). It's in the very nature of how they work.

  • @АЛЕКСЕЙПРИХОДЬКО-я3п

    Hello tell me what I drove in the dirt much. And ninebot z10 is off and won't turn on what to do now.😢😢😢😢😢

    • @ElectricUnicycles
      @ElectricUnicycles  5 лет назад

      I'm sorry, I don't know what can be wrong. If the battery gets below ~20% the wheel won't turn on until you've recharged the wheel. This has happened to me a couple of times.

  • @YASAJTV

    Has anyone ever checked/confirmed if Inmotion V10 regenerates power riding downhill?

    • @ElectricUnicycles
      @ElectricUnicycles  4 года назад +2

      I did, descending 4500-feet down a mountain. It's not really a question. By the very nature of how EUC's work, the all must regenerate power or they couldn't work. The excess energy must go somewhere - either into batteries or a big resistive load, which wouldn't make sense.

  • @3euc
    @3euc 6 лет назад +3

    Tough ride, steady persistence prevailed. The electric unicycle industry ought to be giving you accolades for arranging and sharing these events, which only boost interest levels in EUCs. I find the width of the Z10 to be useful on the one hand, but a setback on the other. Over certain terrain, its thickness can help get over loose ground, but maneuvering around and through lots of obstacles is harder, not because it's necessarily more difficult to turn, but because the wheel is nearly twice as wide and is more likely to contact obstacles. Even if the Z10 is considered equally maneuverable, it undeniably has still got that extra width to bump into things.

    • @ElectricUnicycles
      @ElectricUnicycles  6 лет назад +1

      Thanks. There is no perfect wheel, and that includes trail wheels. What you say is correct, but what I can say in reality is that this particular trail was most pleasant to navigate on the Z10 versus my MSuper, Tesla, and ACM. I chalk that up to the tire.

    How would the KS 18XL do on this same mountain vs this Z 10, not inuding its additional range? Seems like the Z 10 is better for off-roading, but 18XL is better in every other way. Seems like these are all better than Ebikes when it comes to range, capability and price too. Keep up the good videos!

    • @ElectricUnicycles
      @ElectricUnicycles  6 лет назад +1

      I haven't yet ridding the XL up this mountain. I'm sure it'll do fine, but the Z10 tire is very nice for trails like this.
      Yes, I think EUC's are better than any other form of personal transport. Their single biggest disadvantage is the potential for a bad accident because they are a self-balancing device with no redundancy (two wheels).

    Question, were there any over-heating issues on anyone's Z10 on the climb?

    • @ElectricUnicycles
      @ElectricUnicycles  5 лет назад +1

      I was the only person riding a Z10 and I had no overheating issues. The Z10 will only overheat if climbing extremely steep hills - the kind of hills where you have to really lean to barely move.

    • @ElectricUnicycles
      @ElectricUnicycles  6 лет назад +1

      The microphone picks up the motor sounds much better than the human ear. The Z10 may have the quietest motor of any EUC being made right now. But even the loudest EUCs (like all of the KingSong models) are barely noticeable when you are riding, because of the wind noise.
