I like having a riding partner especially on nice sunny days along the seafront, None does 21mph on throttle only but she prefers to pedal on low assist and get some work in, but then sometimes the devil 😈 comes out and she speeds up . . I've done this video in 2.35.1 widescreen as apposed to the normal 16.9 ,, what you think? Allways nice when the missus can roll with you , I am trying to get my lady up on the ninebot mini plus (she has tried but very briefly). It would be a first step into a the world that she has yet to discover As my main screen is a 4m wide 2.40:1 Cinemascope screen with image projected through a panamorph lens, then 2.35:1 / Cinemascope is "my normal" for all material (photo and film). Also the Sammy s9+ is scope-ish so also there it rocks. Of course i Love it Once You go scope you dont ever want to go back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Planemo Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 Good to see you back on the Z mate Au naturel as well - yes I know it's naughty but nothing like riding in just a T and shorts at gentle speeds.

But I can't believe the Onewheel doesn't even have an overcharge alarm and just switches off!! I love the Onewheel concept, but apparently the Futuremotion tech is even more rotten and ancient that I had thought 19 hours ago, ir_fuel said: What EUC is that guy at 2:38 sitting on?

I do try promote safe riding but sometimes when your not going too fast and you want to be free and avoid suntan lines and heat at the risk of grazes and scars from falling 😬 Stay safe 😊 @Planemo get that bike out before the summer ends 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn't have alarms of any kind. It can only do tiltback. No beeps. So if you don't recognize the tiltback and understand what it means, then the next "communication" is a nodedive and an asphalt sandwich.

The video sounded like there's no warning whatsoever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The video sounded like there's no warning whatsoever. Yes, it should tiltback on an overcharge. They have videos describing it. But there are a lot of problems with people not understanding or recognizing tiltback, or their CG is such that it can't tiltback, they are braking so the board is tilted back already, etc. etc. If you stand on the front of the board with your weight shifted forward, then you're getting awesome acceleration and everything seems great! That's the problem with their tiltback, it feels too much like normal operation. Some frantic beeping from the board would be a good way to tell the rider that something is wrong, and it's a mistake not to have it. Another big mistake is that they advertise the OW as going 19mph, but tiltback starts at 15mph. So in order to get to the advertised speed, you have to ride the tiltback. Obviously this eats into the safety margin of torque. And it encourages people to ignore tiltback. And again, there are no beeps to warn you.

I have a Fuji hybrid (city/light trail) ebike that has normal tires. https://www.fujibikes.com/usa/bikes/electric/cross-terrain/e-traverse-evo I suspect it's just fat tires are "on trend" these days.

That would give the 2100Wh Nikola a "good" range of 67 miles, so 70+ miles with beeps. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fat tires look awesome, and have other advantages such as good flotation in dirt / sand, stability and roadworthiness. But bikes didn't use them because there was too much rolling resistance, and nobody wanted to slave away pushing the pedals. But now that you can have an electric assist, it changes the equation and opens up the possibility to use them. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
