This brought back great memories! I had a unicycle as a teen. After losing my leg below the knee, I was determined to get on the unicycle again - but it was a challenge idling and going backwards. Sure was fun watching you learn! I also just started my winter ebike conversion project.

That's great that you were able to get the hang of it so quickly. The drone camera work was very well done in these electric unicycle videos.

Nice vids man. I ordered a Kingsong 18XL just a couple days ago. And your vids help me pull the trigger. Thanks! CANT WAIT!

This is one of the best videos I have seen so far because all these things you mentioned are the things that I have been doing opposite and that's the reason I ended up with a elbow fracture, I wish I have seen this video before. After seeing this video my whole psychological perspective on how to ride the wheel has changed, too bad I can put it into practice now because of the fracture but once I heal I will definitely follow your advise . Thank you so much for such wonderful video content.

I'm impressed on how quickly you learned to ride it

I'm relatively new to your channel and wanted to let you know I've been enjoying it. Keep up the great work.

Not long after I watched your previous video about learning to ride your EUC, I saw a guy delivering leaflets into mailboxes on one here in Australia. What an awesome way to make a probably otherwise boring job really fun!

You are learning so fast. I needed two weeks to be able to go to the park :D

Love your videos; keep it up, man! Can wait to start building batteries.

Very cool video I am new to the EUC world but i am learning thanks to tips like look ahead further at a fixed point. Thank you for that!

I was reluctant to even consider going for one of those until I saw your video! Well done! and Thank you!

I didn't think you were going to be able to ride it after watching your first video on that e-unicycle but somehow...YOU DID IT!!!😎

Nice channel, I enjoy watching your videos (mainly the DIY batteries videos)

Another great video Micah. Just getting used to the idea of EUC 😉

Excellent vid. Nice to hear a learn to ride video from someone who is new to euc vs. a veteran rider trying to teach someone.

your explanation made me want to get a unicycle. Thanks for that

Great tips ! - sent video to a friend just starting

At sufficient speed, about 7 to 8 mph for most EUCs (less for some), the EUC will become self-stable and the rider no longer has to make balance corrections. This is because an imbalance causes the EUC to tilt and steer into the direction of imbalance, and at sufficient speed, the EUC will self-correct on it's own. I started off with a V8F at 3 to 5 mph, balancing similar to riding a bicycle at slow speed, constantly steering to maintain balance. After doing 15 minutes or so at a tennis court doing beginner drills like using the screened fence to mount, rock back and forth, do short runs, I ventured away from the fence using arm flailing: flail left to twist the EUC right and vice versa, to steer for balance and direction, using the same principle as riding a bike at slow speed and was able to do laps on my first attempt. While learning to ride at slow speed is something that is usually learned later, it made me more aware of what happened when I increased speed a bit. I moved to a long straight, and at around 8 mph on my V8F, it became self-stable, I no longer had to make any balance corrections, relaxed my arms, and could essentially just stand still at 8 mph or so while riding in a straight line. I was aware that nothing had clicked mentally, but instead I was simply riding fast enough for an EUC to become self-correcting and stable. It was then that I learned to tilt steer. First small tilts to see how the V8F would respond, some mild weaves, then large radius turns. The next step was to learn how much to tilt the EUC versus how much to lean, depending on speed. At lower speeds, the EUC is tilted more than the rider leans, at higher speeds (15 mph or more), the EUC is tilted less than the rider leans. I then worked on being able to look | move around a bit without upsetting balance or changing direction, such as looking back over my shoulder for traffic, which is mostly a case of trust when riding an EUC fast enough for it to be stable.

you are the best teaching for a beginner like me, i been watching 100 of clip on you tube 👍👍🙏

Really cool! Thanks for showing the learning process... I’ll be curious to see if it can be a practical solution for commuting... next video in Tel Aviv city center? 😜

Good tips, and I think they apply to most things that require balance.

Thé only experienced I’ve got with gyroscope is with the Segway. You’re teasing my curiosity with the ease of learning. You’re making me spend. ;-)

I learnt to ride in the past month and all you say checks out

Well done and good advice. Thank you.

Hi Micah! I love your videos. I recently purchased 50 QB cells and your 18650 kit (from your site)for my 500 watt bicycle. I get 12 miles at full speed (27 mph) including hills! Once I hit 12 miles I can no longer go 27 mph without my motor stopping , but I can switch my bike to eco mode which limits it to 10 to 12 mph. Doing this allowed me to get 20+ more miles off of it as it was only pulling 10 amps Max vs 21 amps on high power mode. Just want to say your kit made it so easy to assemble. I don't know how Jehu messed that up LOL

Nice work 😊 You learn fast😊😊

Great tut. thanks for posting......

Haven't watched your channel in a while, but last time I did, you had tried an electric skateboard and based on your remarks about safety, I didn't think you'd take to it. Guess that was an incorrect assumption. 60 here, and I just ordered an EUC. Protective gear will be purchased soon. Very soon. Hope I can learn to ride it quickly as it will be a nice alternative to the ebike which has, for the most part, given the car an early retirement.

Great video

Can you comment on overvolting an EUC and using Vruzend kits for replacement DIY batteries in general (not the Inmotion specifically), assuming you could make them fit?

Thanks for helping the world

Which wheel are you riding in this video? How are things since this video? Still liking this wheel or have you upgraded? Thank you in advance for your time!

Wait was that park in Cambridge MA?!

I bought one of these E unicycles ( ks14 ) and I practice again and again could not get my balance don’t realy have long walls to follow along or a friend to help guide me .. there is a place that has a long semi curved rail but it’s on METRO 🚇 property that would be great course can’t use it .. tried at the park grass has lot of pot ( hidden ) holes real bumpy got it to go a few times and if I could have had help I could have gotten the hang of it .. neat feeling wen u are in motion could imagine to go cruising down a trail .. but I’m so disappointed I put it back in its box and now just sits in the corner 🙁 .. any suggestions

cool balance tip

At the risk of distracting you from your new pursuit of unicycling I was wondering if you have ever covered the pros and cons of different designs for hub motors. I want to add one to my beach cruiser but dont want it to add drag if I just ride the bike without the assist. I heard that some of the motors introduce drag when the bike is being pedaled without power assist. What type should I choose? Great channel, thanks

@dalysea26

He has a great video where he shows how to connect 2 hub motors on a fat tire bike to a single throttle, potentially bypassing a controller and with a high voltage battery. Not sure if you intended your beach cruiser to ride through sand dunes, haha, but I'm imagining that'd be one way to get the power you'd need.

Nice !

Drone footage...nice!...DJI?

Was there somebody behind the scenes piloting the drone?

BMS problems: I have a 52v battery that is presently reading @ 55.2(not fully charged). The power output from the BMS reads @41.8v and the charge output @ 49.8v. It's top of the line Luna Cycle advanced charger. When I plug it in to charge thru charge wire charger does not engage. Charger only turns on when hooked up to discharge wire. I've had this charger for 6 months and this is a first. Any help?

Time to win dat book

EUC gotta get one!

Watching you from France lol

Hi Mike, it’s me again with my ussual childish questions. I noticed on some BMS,they have low voltage detection as 2.55 and over voltage at 4.28v and from what I’ve learnt so far, I know these aren’t good cuts offfs for a li ion battery. What is the real cut off of these batteries. Coz am confused if it’s 2.5 or its 3v. But why do SOME bms detect low voltage cut of at 2.5v instead of 3v?

Yeahhh these unicycles aren’t super easy to learn, I tried a few and still remember the first failed attempts... it feels like you’re never going to learn, you persist and suddenly everything works hahaaa!! AWESOME!! *that drone is following you reeeeeeeeally well, poor cameraman will be made redundant and lose their jobs haha

I'm really struggling to keep my balance when riding my V11. Been trying to ride it for about 3 days. Have done 4 60-minute sessions. I've tried every possible way I could to help with my balance and acceleration, but it's left me even more frustrated every time and with bruised shins. I'm really jealous of those who can easily ride them.

So, which one is the best for commuting, e scooter, mono wheel or segway mini pro? Or e bike? If just say, not only commute, but also going supermarket, going around town..

@holmer9413

5 жыл бұрын

I guess that would depend on your commute. The bike trail runs right behind my house so it's convenient for me and I use my ebike for errands as well as enjoyment all the time and love it. But if I had to travel more than 15 miles one way all the time, I think I might decide the e-scooter would probably be the better option.

@EbikeSchool

This is really an opinion question, but IMO, e-bikes are best for me for longer trips, while something like a e-scooter or even e-skateboard (and maybe now e-unicycle) are good for shorter trips like to the market.

@@EbikeSchool I was thinking e-scooters as being larger, more powerful and with bigger batteries/range than an ebike, so maybe we aren't on the same page with that. And if that's the case then I would have to agree.

Tire looks very low on air in the video. Is it supposed to be that way? Seems like there would be a lot of drag but then again it might make the responsiveness a little slower to let the rider get familiar with it quicker.

@d0nj03

It can help learners balance more easily if there's (relatively) lower pressure in the chamber, as this leads to a larger contact surface of the wheel with the ground when you're resting your weight on it. There's time enough to raise the pressure later if you're looking for energy efficiency or optimum ride smoothness or whatever.

Are the pedals a factor? I just bought mine and I feel like the pedals are too inclined

This ⬆️ this is very important. Anyone new to euc and still learning - adjust your pedals angle! It makes all the difference

Glad you’re staying upright without using the face plant technique.

Do you know why an EU would be leaning backwards when you pick up speed?

Rock back n fourth so you don’t get caught wobbling.

I'm 5,2. Could I ride this?

whay kind euc ?

I'm pretty much in the exact same boat. The damn steering

How do u express the feeling when your body 'click' with unicycle?😁

So my comment from the last video was right? Haha

I subbed your channel bc I thought you teach how to build batteries. I could be wrong but what it looks like you do is cover all but a couple of vital steps that I would successfully build a battery per your video. You do this to then sell a book? Is this right?

So your saying its like "Ultra Instinct?"don't think and let your body do the work and just relax?

Why no video on KZread shows us who to break (slow down) in this kind of vehicles????????????????????

Lean or sit back to brake, then step off with one foot. At first you may want to grab the EUC before stopping, but eventually you want to be able to slow to a near stop, step off and control the EUC with the one foot that is on the EUC.

You didn't talk about braking and throttle.
