Jean eRide.ie Community Posted December 29, 2018 Share Posted December 29, 2018 (edited) Update: The A8 project has been left behind, it was never sold. They are now working on the A9: _______ This may only be a design by a "OEM" manufacturer that is maybe trying to do the own design (after having done a few other one wheel vehicles as a sitting EUC and a Pogo EUC). If I get any more info, I'll share it here. The image was received by someone in France from a Chinese dealer.

LanghamP Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 You will crash and you will die the moment you try leaning that wheel over. Those might be the lowest pedals I've ever seen on an EUC. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jean eRide.ie Community Posted January 3, 2019 Author Share Posted January 3, 2019 (edited) More videos and info on the comments of this Facebook post. https://www.facebook.com/groups/137300526890741/permalink/310065516280907/ The manufacturer says battery size is not known yet. Price not known yet. Alex on the comments says: "coming in 5 months. 2000W, 60km/h, 22inch, 7inch wide. " If that is true, we may soon have a larger Monster competitor.

Jean eRide.ie Community Posted January 3, 2019 Author Share Posted January 3, 2019 (edited) They are working on the 3D design at the moment. A good thing about the handle not being in the middle is that it's much easier to add a DIY seat on top of it. 1546519307785.mp4 Edited January 3, 2019 by Jean Dublin 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UniVehje Posted January 3, 2019 Share Posted January 3, 2019 It's really good to see new companies entering the game. Great for us consumers. This certainly looks interesting. Probably very heavy and rides like the Z10. Will this wheel be the only one from this new company? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post houseofjob Posted January 3, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted January 3, 2019 Normally I would be very positive to news of a new wheel manufacture, in my favorite giant sized format, but...... ..... after my unsuccessful foray into lesser known wheels, with my now dead Rockwheel GT16v1, I am a bit less trusting of new and/or relaunched EUC manufacturers, until proven otherwise. My only hope is that Gotway launches even more out-there product in this size or bigger 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eddiemoy Posted January 3, 2019 Share Posted January 3, 2019 Interesting that they are coming out with a bigger copy of the Z10. Didn’t think the Z10 was selling all that well. Wonder if it has the same weird riding characteristics. Mid new manufacture, they really need to build up good reliability rep. I don’t think the software is all that easy to develop and I wouldn’t want to be their test dummy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darrell Wesh Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 To turn a 7 inch wide wheel at high speeds should be fun.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meepmeepmayer Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 But I don't. OEM-level effort seems the right description. Will this company have the legs to do their own R&D, development, etc., that's necessary to compete with the "real" manufacturers? Or is this a quick clone with existing parts (motorbike parts, apparently... see the lights) like the first Solowheel clones and will end up the same way? I expect nothing. Maybe they'll surprise us all, but I expect nothing. This doesn't seem to have the necessary effort behind it (these low pedals alone...). My 2 cents (Is this in any way related to Rockwheel, who did similar wide-tire test models?) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dieterGRAMS Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 (edited) Im here for it. Tho with that tire, I'd like more power. The pedals don't seem any lower than the Msuper and Monster next to it in that video. Should be higher else what's the point of the huge tire?

I don’t think the software is all that easy to develop and I wouldn’t want to be their test dummy. Let me compare this and from the point I saw from @Marty Backe yesterday about Z10 and how you ride it. I will use cars as an example... Mazda MX-5. It is a little sportscar, nimble not but in no terms max performance, but still a fun car to drive. Other makes similar with bigger more powerful engines but still the MX-5 is the biggest selling little affordable sportscar to date. So if you look at Z10, a normal EUC for the masses, properly not, yet fun to ride for those how like it style, absolutely yes from the community feedback. to everyones liking? no but since I don't have any statics I can't say if it meet business goals from Ninebot. It has achieved one thing though, bought back Ninebot into the community public eye. Nope, I have not tested it, the Z10, I would love to but not EU release yet and EUCs are still too rare here at my city/region so ... Would I like to have a Mazda MX-5 yes but it cost too much for me to have 2 cars, so practicality wins over fun ...still.. as for EUC, for a 2nd wheel...decisions are different.

I think we have different idea of what a sports car is. I think the Miata was always marketed as such, but I think if you don’t have the most important thing, power, it isn’t all that fun to drive. Lacking the sport. Having way too many wheels is just a waste. I think two wheels is more than anyone needs. No one has that much time to ride except maybe @Marty Backe. Definitely jelly of the nice whether out there. I have an excuse for having a few, I tell myself it is for my kids. So we are three riders, should have a minimum of 6 wheels. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I couldn't let this statement go unchallenged I have more than a few wheels, and yes, some of them go unridden for weeks (particularly when I get a new wheel like the KS18XL). But I love the variety because they all ride differently. Even my two ACM2's are different because they have unique tires. I can hop on a wheel that I haven't ridden in 6-weeks and I almost feel like I just got a new wheel because of the necessary adjustment period to a 'new wheel'. Variety is the spice of life 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Come on @Hunka Hunka Burning Love are you lost in VR still? I've got a small harem of wheels. I should probably sell off my learner generic wheel and the Ninebot, but it's hard to part with these babies. Some people collect cars, others toys, while certain people gather EUCs into their fold. I say to each their own and owning each is great if you can afford it! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jean eRide.ie Community Posted June 20, 2019 Author Share Posted June 20, 2019 I got confirmation that the A8 has been left behind. (which they claimed went 60km/h). But they are working on something else, the A9, if the specs are good, it could be the first serious Motorbike EUC. The motor size seems huge, probably 5000w, 8000w or more. (just my guess). And there is lots of space for batteries on the body. For discussion about the A9, I started a new topic: 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
