Yeah, it's impossible to know what's on or off - I don't know much about iphone, more into android, but mostly something like that probably turned on by default to help people take better pictures / videos. An instacam x3 is a totally delicious camera. You just have to remember that you must have a good amount of drivespace for what you record, and also a computer that is not too old, for the editing.

It is nice when we get them back, and to watching stammering thieves shit themselves when they realise the game is up Hahaha, I'm laughing my ass off - that fumbling thief or handler of stolen goods trying hard to talk his way out of it... lamer! If something is too good to be true, it probably isn't. If he has not stolen it himself, then he has bought it too cheaply, which is approx. the same as stealing, and not a valid excuse at all. In Danish we have a saying: "Uden hæler ingen stjæler" difficult to translate directly, especially "æ", but it is approx. this: Without the one who buys stolen goods, no one steals. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Despite how much rambling he did and the fact that Dawn's voice was really clear I could barely make out what that dude was saying. And was he Scottish? I'm usually OK with accents but really struggled with him! 7 hours ago, Robse said: Without the one who buys stolen goods, no one steals. I like that quote, very true!

Mono Posted February 10 Share Posted February 10 (edited) 4 hours ago, sbb said: Great myth busting video! And even correct until 5:22, to all I can see ! Myth #3 5:22 is not a myth for unicycles (and the clip seems to suggest that it's not a myth for motorcycles too, I don't know either way), due to the camber effect 7:12 which is much more intricate than it is explained in the clip. For unicycles, steering (twisting) and leaning (the wheel) have similar effects while steering is less susceptible to the ground surface conditions. EDIT, a short recap of the camber effect: tilting/leaning the wheel to the side produces through the tire grip a steering/twisting torque of the wheel to the side of the lean. The torque depends on the speed such that the induced curve radius depends (dynamically) only on the lean angle and the grip conditions. The camber effect is one of the main reasons why different tires ride so differently. Edited February 10 by Mono 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PurpleRiderUSA Posted February 11 Share Posted February 11 Found this super cool video from a guy who seems to be an insider in EUC. He has spent time in China working with manufacturers and knows Jason from eWheels a while back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PurpleRiderUSA Posted February 11 Share Posted February 11 My latest video riding and talking about EUC topics, suspension vs non. suspension and I also happened to meet a super cool local rider! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
novazeus Posted February 11 Share Posted February 11 haha, my pastures can be continuous dirt pot holes and very rough, but nothing like this! i wouldn't walk this! it's great to see how capable these wheels are but omg, those rocks are not soft. my pasture is too hard for me, still nursing a dinged knee after almost 7 weeks, and wearing leatt slip on knee protection. and the injury was from my knees clanging together when i rolled on the ground. i'll stay here in florida and try to keep on my mowed paths. i think i'm learning that if i ride fast, i like stiffer suspension, if i ride slow, i like the suspension softer. wind can be an issue. the v13's are better in the wind. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oscillation will still occur when you are very experienced, even with a small diameter and light wheel, even when deflating the tire, even when changing shoes, whether you are heavy or light, muscular or not muscular. When it is very violent no one stays standing. To believe anything else is science fiction. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As the vid points out the trick is not preventing wobbles happening, but rather gaining the ability to arrest them early before they become big enough to cause us issues. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robse Posted February 14 Share Posted February 14 i had a (bad) wobble crash on my 16X - convinced myself it was a combination of "downhill" , "brake" and then the top mount seat wobbled and went against my legs. Regardless, I've since found that so far I've been able to stop all wobbles by quickly making my legs completely stiff like stilts and leaning back a bit. Of course, this cannot be done if you ride on hilly terrain, but this is not where most wobbles occur either. But I can't comment on whether it will work for others.
