This just came to mind I was noticing your 'signature ' with battery size and acm. I read elsewhere that the number of km expected on average from a battery pack can be obtained by dividing the Wh rating of the battery by 16 (1600 Wh = 100 km) and Miles would be the conversion from Km.

I read elsewhere that the number of km expected on average from a battery pack can be obtained by dividing the Wh rating of the battery by 16 (1600 Wh = 100 km) and Miles would be the conversion from Km. 15 Wh/km is very roughly a good starter estimate for how far a battery can take the "average" rider (80kg, 25 km/h) on the current wheels. But of course temperature, rider weight, speed and riding style matter. Can be anything between 10 and 20 Wh/km. Though the last 20% of the battery can't really be counted, so it would be 80% * 1300Wh/15Wh per km = 69km range (which is very close to my experience, 70km at 25km/h + then a few km after the 20% beeps start).

With great regret I had to down vote this video after watching the vertical video "don't do it". This is only the second time I've down voted, and yet I feel sad I can't down vote this post ten times simply from the VV. VV is a true evil that has infected the soul of civilization. I'm afraid I'm going to have to hate anyone making a VV. Nothing personal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I kind of suspected you might have done that on purpose, to accentuate the long shadow that fit perfectly in portrait mode. I noticed how the sidewalk lined up so well with the direction the sun was shining.

Do I still need to keep saying that this is my favorite wheel If you were to wear your helmet with the rear view mirror, could you ride in reverse by just looking at the mirror? I don't know how you do it! I'd be afraid of falling on my tailbone or hurting my back falling off the wheel. You've created a whole new meaning of riding "Backewards." Maybe get a set of those mini-cones and try Backewards slaloming! Edited October 19, 2017 by Hunka Hunka Burning Love 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe get a set of those mini-cones and try Backewards slaloming! When I ride my other wheels with all the gear on, riding backwards with the helmet mirror is very helpful. But in this case I'm not really riding very fast - it's a much more mellow experience so I'm not too concerned. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You need to film your practice sessions because I only have one video of you crashing and I need additional footage for future spear throwing 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meepmeepmayer Posted October 19, 2017 Share Posted October 19, 2017 (edited) @Marty Backe You have some serious riding skills (and videomaking too, as already said in the other thread)! I was impressed by the mten3 overpass video and how tiny its turn circles are, but you did that even backwards. And now this video. You really want to make me buy an mten3, just looks so fun to weightlessly fly-dance through the world like this with a tiny, light wheel that never limits your maneuverability. Must protect wallet... must resist... Gotway should pay you (I've heard from others they bought a GW wheel due to your videos).

You guys think that's a 100V Monster (black) or did someone just sell black regular Monsters in California? Also that guy has fantastic images overall in this video. Will check out the Youtube channel. Thanks for posting this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
