Lukasz Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 OK Guys, I thought that I will to it later, but as the "massive" delivery of Z10 hit EU and probably US also... Here it is: The step by step setup guide for Ninebot Z models: Find Yourselves local standard mains connection cable like for PC (depends if the dealer made the good job or You got Chinese standard cable in the box) Buy some reflective tape - white and red Unpack all stuff, connect the Z to the charger and charge it.... Cut away small triangles of the bottom protectors by the pedal post as they block the easy pedal opening (see www.youtube.com/lukluk for video of what I am referring to) take included hex key and screw pedal plate screws (6 on each pedal) slightly better stick the grip pads precisely unscrew pedals cut reflective tape for front and end of pedals - 4 wedges 100 mm long, 12mm on wide end and 5mm on narrow ends are needed. stick the reflective tapes precisely get / prepare pedal openers (custom solution in my case - but willing to print and send - option to be discussed) stick them nicely using strong professional grade double sided tape get / prepare light sensor blind to reduce lamp switch off by incoming car phenomenon (custom solution in my case - but willing to print and send - option to be discussed) stick it nicely using double sided tape (*see my YT video at youtube.com/lukluk ) Cut and stick RED reflective tape for the back fender (stick it over instead of white - also wider strip like 4 cm is OK) add good double sided tape to front of the top protectors - by the lamp as original one un-glues as hell (*se my YT video) unscrew all side panels and lamp, modify front lamp - see my thread for that on the forum here or my YT video with link listed screw in fender and handle stick some fancy white reflective tape strips on the front of the unit *see YT.. clean all unit using alcohol before sticking all external protectors prepare extra soft foam leg triangular protectors to cover parts of the original leg protectors as they are hard as hell stick protectors apply silicone on pedal axis to stop them form rattling and screw them back in place modify the original rubber hose from the set - cut the pump end away, get the bike tube valve, press it into the rubber tube (original one comes without the valve) set the right pressure in the tire !!!! DONE Optional steps: get the charge doctor and modify the power supply to use it (*see my YT video about it - www.youtube.com/lukluk) also separate thread here... install WheelLog (in case of android device) new version supports Z model This is more or less complete guide. Skip what you want, or add other steps ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marty Backe Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 Wow, that's a lot of extra stuff to do Good suggestions, but I think the title to this post is a little misleading because most of what you suggest would fall under the category of Wheel Modding, not Initial Setup.

Lukasz Posted August 22, 2018 Author Share Posted August 22, 2018 Title modified, but in fact not that much is modding - a lot of stuff is just using/applying the stuff included with the wheel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
