  1. Brought from ewheels last oct, this is the exact model: https://www.ewheels.com/product/new-veteran-sherman-18-100v-3200wh-battery-2500w-motor/. In perfect working condition. Have order number and will share upon delivery. Local pick up only.
  2. Purchased from this site about 3 years ago, exact model: https://minimotorsusa.com/products/dualtron-ultra-2?psafe_param=1&gclid=EAIaIQobChMInYLkjc3V_QIV2hutBh3frQDfEAAYASAAEgK5evD_BwE Estimate about 500 miles total ridden. Replaced recently with new tires, rotors and pads. Battery in perfect condition. With 200lb rider, I average about 50 miles per full charge at 20mph average. Local pick up only.
  3. Inmotion S1 Adult Electric Scooter, 30 Miles Mileage, 300+ lbs Weight Capacity, 10" Pneumatic Tires with Dual Suspension & Brake, Foldable Escooter for Big Guys and Heavy Riders https://a.co/d/6Bdpuiy Brought new a new months ago for my daughter, she ended up riding her V10 all the time now instead. The scooter has maybe 20 miles on it, it’s brand new. I will also share order information from Amazon upon purchase. MSRP is $1200, asking for $600. Local pick up only.
  4. I got one of these from eWheels: https://www.ewheels.com/product/100-8v-8a-rapid-charger-gotway-msx-nikola-monster/ And one of these: https://www.ewheels.com/product/new-veteran-sherman-18-100v-3200wh-battery-2500w-motor/ Went to charge it last night, noticed the when I plugged it in, it felt a bit weird. But the wheel charged regardless, so everything is fine. After the charging is done, I unplugged, stood the sherman upright and power it on. Everything seems ok, until I went to close the charging port. As I was closing the port, multiple sparks, and sherman shut down. Sherman: Upon close examination, I saw a loose ping from the charger stuck in the sherman. I pulled it loose, powered on the sherman, rode it for about 10 miles, everything seems ok. Charger: I examined the charger, noticed that pin 3 was the one that came out. Being a sunday and I need the wheel full charged tomorrow (I ride about 60 miles one-way to work every day), I decided to take a chance and see if I can repair the plug. After I opened the plug, I noticed that ping 3 was originally connected to NOTHING. This explains why it was so easily removed from the plug. I put the charging plug back and pulled my sherman, with a long extension cord, into the middle of the street where no one was around (not even cars). Hey, if this thing is going to explode, I don't like to take chances. Plug it into port 1 - charging. A-OK. Plug it into port 2 - charging. A-OK. Huge THANK YOU to Veteran for a WELL DESIGNED wheel. When it detected a short, the wheel shut down and prevented any damange. Unlike Dualtron for example, that piece of shit scooter fries its battery when you short the charing port - ask me how I know. Check your charger!
  5. Lol I came here to write this but someone got ahead of me. 100% on this comment.
  6. Wolverines. I like them better than stock. These have the bump on the tip that helps me feel the wheel.
  7. Time has nothing to do with it. Count the number of drops / falls. After about 50, you can ride. After about 200, expert.
  8. Biggest mistake: babying the wheel. Learning how to not scratch / drop the wheel instead of learning how to ride it. To learn basically count the number of times you drop the wheel. 20 times, you are just starting. 200 times, you are now an expert. Extrapolate.
  9. Brought brand new from Inmotion via Amazon. Perfect working order. Battery is 100% healthy. About 350 miles total only since new. Never dropped because I have mad skills. Never offroaded. Suspension in perfect working order. FREE: Will include clark pad ($160), pedals ($200), and stand (I printed it myself). All bumper and headlight guards included. Will also throw in a firesak ($140). Sherman-S on the way, so no need for another suspension wheel. Freeing up space in garage. Asking for $1200 cash. Local pick up only. I can meet you anywhere around Redmond, WA.
  10. Thought I share the below with you all. No, most of these are not on Youtube, surprisingly. First, some common things that I want to reiterate. Wear armor. Beginner that go 15 mpg or lower, full face helmet, wrist guards, knee brace. Beyond that, shoulder, elbow, friction proof clothing, and a good pair of shoes. Even after 2000 miles, which is roughly how many miles I have now, treat every wheel like a new wheel. DO NOT learn how to save the wheel. The wheel is designed to take the fall. Save yourself. For beginners, learn how to balance, feel the road, feel the wheel, and mount and dismount. When the wheel feels like it's tipping over, jump off and get AWAY from the wheels. A typical tire burn takes about 3 weeks to fully heal, ask me how I know. If you don't ride your wheel frequently, get an advanced charger and charge it at 2 amps to 80%. 1 amp sometimes will give you batter errors on certain wheels. 2 amps is super gentle and is like treating your battery to a spa. Second, here's the stuff that almost no one tells you. Turning at slow speeds and high speeds is different. Read my post here: https://forum.electricunicycle.org/topic/30125-turning-with-euc Those painted lines on the roads? Treat them as ICE when wet. Did I mention to treat every wheel as if it's your first? The job of a new wheel is to kill you. There are many points of failures on an EUC, and any of them can result in you flying straight into pavement. Controller, mother board, IMU, hall sensors, suspension, wheels, tires, general structure, screws, etc. Use the speed alarm on new wheels to keep yourself in check for the first 5 miles. For example, when I got my shermax this weekend, I did about 20 miles with the speed alarm set to 20mph. I refuse to go over that until I have had several miles on the wheel, so it can prove to me that it won't kill me. Every wheel turns differently. For example, V10/8/5/Mten3 ,etc. turns on a dime, requiring very low foot pressure to do turns. V11, K20/22, monster pro, etc. (Yes, I have rode them all), because of the suspension, higher center of gravity, requires you to lean more and pull into the turn with your lower legs. There are wheels in between, for example Shermans, they are softer than a V10 when it comes to road feet, but harsher compared to a V11. Turning on the Shermans is somewhere between a V10 and a V11 for example. When you go up a hill, especially steep ones, the contact point of your tires actually move upwards. This may cause your wheel to feel loose, feel greasy. So be careful when accelerating up hills aggressively. Lastly, I see a lot of posts about new wheels and how to progress. I think that every rider should experience these 3 types of wheels. Small, non suspension, agile wheels. V5/8/10 alike. Run over a pot hole slowly and experience the jaw shattering effect of not bending your knees. Step on the wheel too fast and scare yourself half to death when the wheel wants to throw you overboard. These are experiences that all riders needs to have. Suspension wheels. T4, V11, etc. These are the future. Riders should experience stepping on the soft wheel and start off, it's a unique sensation. I believe it actually helps you mount all wheels, as suspension wheels sink when you mount them, adding complexity which means better training. Larger, expert wheel. Sherman, K20/22, monster, etc. One you are here, all the experiences you learned above will apply and you'll enjoy the wheel so much more. The above are just my experiences, I hope it helps those that are learning EUC.
