You made excellent use of 360 features like tiny planets but you didn't over do it. Well done. And the video is so clear. Have you been studying on Ben Claremont's YouTube channel? thank you @Smoother actually this time I tried to over do what I usually do standard! I went for highest resolution and above all I gave maximum bitrate to the video when it was time to render it! my pc is not that recent everything was slow and got big amount of time! I can't even play it over my pc 😂 but I did have a chance to see it in 5k at someone else place and I was so happy about it! about Ben sure I've been watching his videos but this time I tried to go a little deeper into premiere Pro resolution/bitrate, made some test and hopefully I've got some more knowledge of it 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know about Ian sometimes. He's super conservative as to when/if he'll carry a wheel. I feel for his customers that get to see wheels being used 6-months before he brings them in, if ever. Yet, his business model must be working for him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post seage Posted April 11, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted April 11, 2019 Super quick thing. Finally learned how to go down a curb. I technically I knew all along. I just felt like i was going to die every time I thought about it it, so i avoided at all costs. But being locked into my surroundings is something i don't like so i had to face my fears. I need to learn how to go up next, but i'll give that some time. This is only day 2 on my KS18XL so i was also trying to get used to it and learning about tight turns. I didnt realize just how much clearance these pedals gave me. I thought i was super close to scraping them when i was turning. Watch the video back and i could hit a whole tea cup under my pedals. Day 2 on this wheel. 97km clocked, LOL. Legs super bruised and getting speed wobble at 25kmph. I THINK i figured out how to get past that, but this videos not about that stuff, I just cant shutup. Ok, heres the video. Bye.   6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes i know, i cant wait for 6 months after they come out thats another summer gone.i cant understand the selling logic because if he got them straight away I'd have my name down , now I'm looking for another seller.. Ian's reply We are holding back but also accepting pre orders, so far no one has pre ordered, If this remains the case we will not bring them in (as only worth bringing something in that people are interested in lol!)

I have no problems pre-ordering (like with @Jason McNeil of EWheels) if I know that the order will be fulfilled. But I'm not going to put out a deposit and tie my hands from buying elsewhere if I don't even know that the order is going to be fulfilled. With that logic I don't know how he decides to sell anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yet, his business model must be working for him. Might have something to do with the fact that it's 2000GBP/2360€ whereas eunicycles.eu lists it as 1800€ (not sure how final that is, I'm tempted to ask but don't want to jinx it). 2000+ is too much for a 16 inch wheel anyways, of course nobody buys then. Even for an 18 incher it's a lot, but for a 16 incher... just no. Ian is indeed conservative. I guess he has been burned a lot by Ninebot's behavior (being abandoned... and again with the Z) and sitting on some old stock (that he refuses to price down despite sitting in his shop forever... want a red 67V 820Wh ACM for 1000BGP/1160€?). Not sure how much financial buffer he has. I asked about the MCM5 in an email and then he was also financially hesitant to order it right away as the MSX was coming in at the same time. Finally, maybe Brexit uncertainty plays a role? Your sales suddenly being limited to the UK vs. all of Europe might be scary. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be really tough to see my wife in pain if something happened. She actually encouraged me to go out and ride the last few weekends. I need her healthy if i screw up again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
