Micmic Posted December 13, 2015 Share Posted December 13, 2015 Yesterday as I was riding up a small steep slope I lean forward and I felt that I was about to tip over And fall off which shouldnt be the case as the gyroscope should help balance it? Has anyone experienced this before where you lean forward too much on a slope that you felt you tip over? Hope I am making sense here ... I wanted to ask to make sure it's not a gryoscope issue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlowMo Posted December 13, 2015 Share Posted December 13, 2015 It will depend on the power of the motor and battery capacity. The generic wheels with small battery packs could shut down due to high current draw and heat from the motor or due to overleaning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
houseofjob Posted December 13, 2015 Share Posted December 13, 2015 Body weight is a factor as well. Plus, your EUC is graded for a max degree of incline. Past that and it might cutout like an overlean (not sure as I've never been up steep enough a hill). I believe the average EUC is graded for 15-25 degree incline. Generics might be less...

Gimlet Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 The feeling that you are going to overbalance forward despite the wheel not shutting down tends to happen more with wheels that have a soft ride like the Solowheel and Gotways on the comfort setting. If you are lucky enough to have a wheel with an adjustable ride like a Gotway, KingSong or Ninebot then you can stiffen the ride which reduces the overbalance feeling. If not you have to get used to pointing your toes down more rather than leaning your whole body quite so far forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
