Spinning Contest with 10 Lego Wheels
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 8 фев 2025
- Which is the fastest Lego wheel? 10 participants are spun on a test rig and the winner is the one with the highest velocity. The score (linear velocity) depends on wheel size (circumference) and how fast it rotates (RPM measured using a laser tachometer). Enjoy!

The way you present each wheel individually on a spinning table :D
I appreciate the effort you put into your videos!
Completely agreed.
2pppp0
Agreed
Especially given the spinning table is Lego based
And it's made from Lego
Love how the cheap wheel toppled off the stand during its intro shot
tiberiumfusion goes to show how “cheap” it really is.
The wheel with the most personality
Despite that fail, it got 73 km/h!
Turns out
"Cheap" wheels are very effective!
The last but not least... CHEAP WHEEL.. he may be tiny and Skinny.. And he might also be clumsy... But any fo those doesnt change his speed! (Turns out he won first place)
Your production quality is completely insane. I love the effort you put into each of these, especially in your sound quality.
Would you consider doing some straight build+test videos? I loved the assembly sequences in your previous content and i could probably watch you put things together for ages, so i'd really look forward to some freeform technic machine building and then various test runs... the more unnecessarily complicated the mechanics the better! It would be good filler content to release while you think of some further actual experiments to do :)

There’s one for the press, 2.5 hours long. Wish more were made tbh.
"next up cheap"
cheap: "cheap?! CHEAP?!?! ILL SHOW YOU CHEAP!!!!!"

Maybe it meant "Too cheap to lose"

i love how stupid this concept sounds and how great the video is
Agreed! It's kind of useless information but it's still fun to watch.
I have a feeling the vast majority creations using these wheels won't come close to spinning the wheels nearly this fast.
Yup, that expresses my thoughts to 100%.. :)
It's not useless if you want to make a really fast lego rc car. In than case these sorts of speeds are attainable.
MrAwawe I'd love to see a RC car made from Lego bricks capable of driving as fast as these wheels were spun. Please let me know if/when you know of any.
I'm personally doubtful any such car exists but I'd love to be wrong about this.

Oh no The cheap wheels are gonna rise up
You thought we would have to face Austrian robots from the future constantly spitting out one liners but no it’s the cheap LEGO wheel uprising
Me too
So the motorbike wheel still won everything because it was taller in the podium.
Yeah the outer velocity was extreme and the tire held up really well. Thats pretty good to have in a tire. The reason he did it like that was because the wider a wheel is, the harder it is to balance. The smaller it is, it may spin at a faster rpm, but it never experiences the forces larger wheels experience.
@@melody3741 woosh
@@sayethwe8683 how in God's fucking name is this a joke
Because the cheap tire was still nr1, its just that the motorbike wheel was bigger, That's why he said it was taller in the podium, because it was.
😁😀😂😂
I was a bit surprised by the fact the large motocycle wheel managed to overcome Oldie's small size. Guess that smooth tire proved a major benefactor.
the tires on these wheels are really tight so it doesn't cause too much vibration allowing for higher efficiency
Also, it's quite thin, I think that might have played a role too.
How should the thickness affect the speed?
@@magnuswf Increases in thickness will increase rotational inertia. Increasing rotation inertia makes it harder to spin. Since the motors power is limited, any increase in how hard it is to turn will have to decrease the speed.
@@XX79CamaroXX so a wider wheel with same weight and all would be slower?
this feels like wii sports but for lego wheels. love it!

It honestly feels a lot like marble racing.

really nice production value / editing on this video
VGH
I want to see a LEGO car powered by that insane amount of electricity.
Requires more torque. That setup was geared for speed.
LEGO just made Bugatti Chiron
In order to do that, you would need 4 motorcycle wheels, all with the same gear ratio setup as this, otherwise it cannot carry the heavy load of humans, the ground also causes friction, so you would need a little more torque in order to make it handle the weight and also go faster. If you weighed 100 pounds, that would cut the speed of the motorcycle wheel by about half
I Hate o
@@ihateonions3809 He said a Lego car not a car that you ride in stupid ass
Looks like the heavier wheels are prone to vibrations... maybe they perform better with a thicker axle...
robo336
they wouldnt, the problem is the wheel being unbalanced. If the frame were stiffer the vibrations would end up as plastic to plastic friction. If you ever help a vibrator motor (like from a playstation gamepad) youd notice it spins faster the looser you hold it. And its because its a bushings system. If it had ball bearings it wouldnt make such a difference.
it's not due to a wheel being heavy, it's the rubber part that makes it vibrate, it loses its grip and only touches the wheel at random points when it spins, bumping into the wheel repeatedly, causing vibrations
@Filip Skalec you are 100% correct
@@ficskala Do you think it's the centrifugal force expanding the rubber of the tire that makes it lose contact with the plastic wheel?
@@tombiby5892 yes. In RC cars/trucks, it's called ballooning. The tires expanding tremendously with higher wheel speed
Excellent video! Great graphics and good information given for each round. I especially liked the rotating introduction for each tire, and having the hand pick up each wheel (even if the wheel falls haha!) works well for the video. I also really liked the winner's podium, and the camera movements done by hand. The overall feel of the video is very nice, it has this 'done at home' sort of characteristic that works extremely well with the Lego elements. I'd recommend keeping that sort of theme going ;) Overall great video, definitely worth the like!
i love how the irony of how the wheel thats called "cheap" is the best
because it is reality. cheaper is better. only western propaganda tolds differently. regards from estern europe c:

More rubber tension = less wobbling = less resistance = faster
Wow! I have no words to describe the experience of this video. All I felt was like watching a TV show with million $ invested in production. I love the spin to show the contestant, the leaderboard and other camera movements.

Perfectly shown contest. Graphics, plot, information appearance - everything just perfect. Thanks for the quality video!
i love how the background music is entirely made with GarageBand presets
I love watching your videos, so relaxing, you have a lot of production value especially for a Lego channel, and I love watching you kind of throw everything at the wall and see what sticks and what doesn't like in your propeller video and shredder video.
What set did the monster tire come from? Good lord....
1974 Lincoln Continental Town Coupe some research and I have found that it came in only one set, the 4x4 off-roader set from 2001.
late reply but I know it from lego technic 8297
8457 and 8466. But 8457 one has "Technic" print on its side
This overall racing vibe omg, this is my fave vid of your channel from now on
I've got the wheels used on an 8880 and was a little disappointed not to see them, but I guess the drive mechanism of the two plastic nubs would probably fail before the tire tread started warping.
There's a few more I can think of that are more testable. The 55982 and it's various types of tread, 2994 with it's tread 6578, 32146 (it's solid plastic, so not very good without modification for traction, but should prove rigid in RPM testing). I was a little confused as to why one would choose the balloon 61481 tread over say the 44309; there seems to be much better fitting tread that's less likely to warp under speed. That being said, I'm sure a video detailing every tyre would be quite long and overstay it's welcome for most viewers.
Sorry if the part number dump seems over pretentious but I just wanted to get the specific parts I'm talking about across. I had to look them up myself, but hopefully I got my point across. All I ever owned was the inexpensive small stuff - never anything cool enough to have unique tyres. Except the Spin 360, I guess, because that plastic 32146 tyre seems to have been used only six times.
55982 was one of the participants initially (with tire 58090), and I measured 7700 rpm speed to it, but then decided cut it from the final video to keep the participant count at even 10.
32146 looks very interesting. I must have missed it. You know, I spent quite a lot of time on bricklink to find different types of wheels. I surely would have picked a solid wheel if I had bumped into it. The main focus for me was to include different types of wheels.
The balloon tire I used is 6579, not 61481. I chose it because the inner rim diameter is larger than the outer one. Just to see how that kind of asymmetric build plays out.
Production value of this video is 10/10
It would be cool if you could attach one of these to a chassis of some kind and see how fast it would go down the street.
I love this person he never tells to subscribe 💞!
I love you or videos man incredibly well produced and very interesting. Please keep them coming
Super glueing the rubber to the tire works for me sometimes but this is relaxing to watch
Love the oldie family! I have like 6 of them ! Also have the buggy wheel and cheap
Production quality is an exponential increase of these videos
4:58 Awwww, that's cute! Wait, what's that?! **Binding of Isaac music plays**
The racing game aesthetics of this video are top notch 10/10 nostalgia
Great video, can't wait for the next upload!!!
Cheaps are super cool, not to mention their inner component without the rubber is used in a lot of pulley systems (and other kinds of systems for that matter) too.
Very interesting all episodes are great. ;-)

I love your channel and concept of using legos in this way
Oddly fun to watch. Saw you want to make it seem like an Olympic game. Great work.
Yeah. :) London 2012 Olympics Men's Vault Final was my main reference. Tried to imitate their scoreboards and editing style.
There is so much to love about this channel
I loved the video, but I really wish you would give the wheel circumference in millimeters instead. At that small of a size I'm not sure why you chose centimeters, especially when you're using grams for the weight.
1 cm = 10mm
www.metricationmatters.com/docs/centimetresORmillimetres.pdf
You just shift the comma when converting "cm" in "mm" there really nothing to it. Its not like the imperial system lol
Read the article.
@@Tama_Abiru lol no I got better things to do with my time
If you want to discuss the manner state your opinion / facts here and back em up with evidence from the article, but don't just link it and bugger of, that's not how it works
For now all I know is that it really doesn't matter because the conversion is so easy.

I love how you think a saran wrap blast shield would protect you from a 182g monster wheel if something were to go wrong.
@@idlivadasambar7591 Thanks for the info. Been wanting to use something as makeshift windshield/bottom and never thought of reusing soda bottles for it.
"MONSTER" is known as a Power Puller tire in the LEGO community.
Also, there are a lot of tires that weren't in this video (bigger cheap, newer balloon tires of different sizes, truck tires of different sizes, race tires of different sizes...)
I love to use the Unimog wheels for my builds, they look good on camera and they have great functional properties.
Good way to demonstrate the concept of moment of inertia, the resistance to acceleration, angular in this example
4:47 Cheap won, but Motorcycle is still higher...
This is better then basketball now
Me: I have a test tommorow, have to go to bed early!
3AM: watching Lego wheel race.
Your videos are getting even better
You obviously forgot to get any of these wheels balanced first. :)
Nice increase in production quality. I'm glad you left the actual testing without background music.
You should have been glued the tires. At high speeds it is obvious that they fly off... We want round 2!?
Tőkés Patrik Glue would probably worsen the balance issues.
I think glue kinda null and voids the point of the test.
@@TempoDrift1480 RC wheels are glued, I assume that's why he suggested that.
the experiments were really very nice and very helpful thanks
I somehow knew that the most of the older tires were better then the new ones...
Very nice video edit! Cool sounds and detail!! Thanks!
should reduce the bouncing and do it again and see if he gets different results
The bouncing is due to the imperfections in the lego wheel.
If the rig were stiffer the vibrations would just turn into heat instead, they're from the LEGO wheels being unbalanced. The same thing happens to a certain degree on real cars if your wheel weights fall off.
Love the video, i feel as though it was unfair due to the fact the wheel shaft was not counter-balanced. Any thinner tire will always win due to less gyroscopic effect on the rig
2:00 is that a sonic boom?
I don't know why, but I laughed throughout the entire video. Great Video! Please more Lego competitions like this
Oldie:at least I'm second place
*Motorcycle Wheel Kicks in*
Ah Screw it
your videos have taught me all i know about gear ratios
you don't have the SINGLE MOST COMMON wheel in your tests.
That wheel wouldn't be possible to test
What wheel
@@mateuszodrzywoek8658 The one they use(d) on most City/Town vehicles for many years. The trucky looking one
@@yaboitucktuck5952 that one has an exclusive axle which is too small for all the technic wheels
For everyone who doesn’t know how the motorcycle beat the oldie, the motorcycle wheel was lighter, and thinner. It also had the second biggest circumference and weighted as much as the truck wheel. The same amount of rotations done in a small wheel and big wheel means that the big wheel goes faster, due to having a bigger area and circumference
Tire shops in 3018 remove tires like this
The high wall tires had less pull where the wider thin tires flexed and flew off the rims. I'm more impressed the rubber on Lego tires holds together better than RC car tires.
かっこいい！
This video is very professionally made! Good job :)
Odd choice, but okay. I'd suggest if you want to anthropomorphize objects, it helps to add an announcer or commentator to relate what is happening in the competition. Also, anthropomorphizing wheels is weird. They usually are a part of an object, like a limb. They are not usually seen as individuals in themselves. Not trying to discourage you, just say'n what's in my head.
Nice touch with the smiley face at the end, by the way. Putting faces on the wheels before the competition could've gone a long way too.
bruh what
+Not Alex
He sugested to go all the way down the road of animistic cultures and put smilies on the wheels or having a human looking mascot representing the wheel acting like a human in a competition.
Notable examples would be OStan series or even Azure Lane.
I think he is from a non western background...of an animistic culture...these people believe that there is a "soul" in everything and be it just a stone or a wheel.
TremereTT,
Check out Jelle's Marble Runs. His latest videos have a disembodied voice as a commentator. That's the general idea I was expressing. No human mascot needed, and it's barely a step down the animism path.
I'm just educated. Something public school got half right once upon a time. I'm very much a 'Murican. How the hell you got from my word choice to non-western animist, I have no idea. I think you might have a problem with projecting.
+Belias Phyre
Projecting? Extrapolating! :) Antropomorphizing dead things....so basically the in and outs of an animistic worldview.
As you are eductated, you might help me with the meanung of educated. Up untill now I thought every person that has a mum or a dad to be educated, as "educated" is one of these catch-all vocabularies.
Also as far as my stereotypes of the USA go, swearing indicates that someones parents were bad in educting their progeny. Seriously I don't thing the later to be true, but as an American you might kind a hate yourself now, right?
What will god do if he noticed your swearing?
TremereTT,
Yes, anthropomorphising objects, which includes living, dead, and non-living things is an aspect of animism. Ascribing to me that I hold these beliefs because I know about them is what I'm calling out as fallacy.
In the context I was using educated, I meant well versed in diverse studies to a level above the average person. I thought I was speaking to someone that could grasp context, but I was obviously wrong. I see no connection between having parentage and being educated, other than a lack in the former trends towards a lack in the latter.
You're goddamn right my parents were horrible. I hate myself for my own reasons, non of which is related to nationality.
To which god do you refer? Yours, mine, or the Spaghetti Monster? I'm pretty sure the Spaghetti Monster is fine with swearing, but I don't dress like a pirate, or believe in it, so not really in good standing there.
I would love to see the same experiment but with the tyres glued onto the rims. I bet the results would change.
Motorcycle wheel is the overall winner if you would compare the velocity, vibration and weight!
I like the video, it was a great concept, but I really like the smiley wheel at the end.
Back in 1986, I never thought that I’d have the answer to this question provided by a video on RUclips. I’m 42 now. Pity the old ‘large oldie’ (the large spongy wheels that were fitted to the functioning car chassis) weren’t in there. They were my favourite. And they floated. 👍
Very fun and entertaining and interesting to watch Lego being pushed beyond expectations.
I love the weirdly high production value and level of polish for this video. Good job!
I love These Videos, which brings no sense in any direction.
It is simply gloriously crazy.
You've really upped your editing. Love it
That buzzing at full speed is the wheel clutching out - basically the tire expands from the centrifugal force and starts hula-hooping around the central wheel, and moving slower (in rpm) than the hub is. The oldie and cheap wheels didn't have this issue because oldie used plastic instead of rubber, and cheap's tiny radius and tight friction fit hold the tire tighter.
Here's an idea for you: Best Lego Flywheel. How much energy can you store in a Lego wheel without it flying apart?
Very good video!!!.Btw the wheels that disqualified u could just glue the tire with the rims so it doesnt get off
I would like to see this done with maximum safe speeds, like instead of disqualifying them, slow them down until they stop failing, and even possibly using more motors to speed up the bigger ones till they fail.
Probably the most confusing ending platform ever.
"Who's first?"
"The highest wheel."
"Oh the motorcycle!"
"No, the one that's furthest off the ground."
"Right the motorcycle!"
"No..."
"Well fine, if you're gonna be that way I won't tell you who's on first."
Not only did you just reaffirm my thoughts that weight to circumference matters for wheels in efficiency but for higher rotational speed, low profile tires do better albeit a very basic test. Well done.
You got a new subscriber.
"Clearly, the smaller, the faster."
*Motorcycle wheel comes in second, beating Oldie*
"Nevermind..."
I have a whole bag of cheap's and i knew it would be first, nice vid
In theory they should all go equally fast if there was no resistance from anything because mass does not infuence the top speed of the wheel but does influence the acceleration... But there is airrisitance, rotation resistance and you can go on and on...
I don't know how I ended up watching a wheel race hitting high rpm, but I liked the video.
Interestung result! :) Maybe is would also be possible doing some preperations for rise the score of each wheel?
man this channel is AMAZING!
Wow nice new effects and clips!
