Lukasz Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 Ninebot Z has the possibility to be parked using the handle base, however this does not provide really stable position. Thanks to one of the Z users suggestion I have developed "stability mod" which offers: Widens the standing/support base by over 50 mm in total (almost 27 mm per side) changing the force needed to trip the wheel on the side from 0,1kg - to around 1kg ! (so 10 times - however those measurements were made using small handheld scale attached to the top of the trolley handle - so are not precise) - this changes the stability a lot - wheel even when slightly pushed stays upright instead of falling immediately. Protect floor from scratching - base of the original handle is sharp aluminum edge - with my mod this edge is separated from the floor Mod may protect the lower part of the handle from major scratches / bending in case of crash (untested - no crashes on my side so far... ;-) ) Easy and quick to install – no special tools required. Mod is printed from strong Ultra-PLA plastic in matt black - matching Z colors well. If anybody is interested - please email me at a64@interia.pl This is the third mod I have designed for the Ninebot Z wheel - after earlier pedal openers mod and switch protector/front lamp regulator mod.

Lukasz Posted February 25, 2019 Author Share Posted February 25, 2019 I have designed so far 3 mods for Z10 - pedal opener, button protector/light adjuster, and recently parking stability mod. Designs and tinkering takes time and effort, so for now they are available as ready printed ultra-pla parts, please contact me on a64@interia.pl for details. Maybe in some future this will end up getting published on Thingiverse, but it is too early for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Werner Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 I've recieved and mounted all 3 mods. Thanks again Lukasz. Can really recommend! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lukasz Posted February 25, 2019 Author Share Posted February 25, 2019 Unicycle riding is still quite new activity open for development and ideas.... My designs are not limited only to the wheel itself, in fact I have realized that almost each piece of equipment I use is in some way modded.... see my winter riding gloves - they include two more printed parts - pebble time screen protector and rear view mirror mounting frame ;-) also radio control for helmet high beam lights and bell.
