Jag_Rip Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 Looks cool, I hardly found it on the pictures Is there a special reason why you put the Parking-stand on the back of the wheel? I figure it could interfere with mounting, you might hit it with your foot when starting to ride. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ecko Posted January 26, 2016 Author Share Posted January 26, 2016 Hmmm good question about that parking stand.... There is no special reason, may i should mount it to the front.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice job of the customization. I also did the Grip Tape, it makes a world of difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ecko Posted January 26, 2016 Author Share Posted January 26, 2016 Yes it did! And the Schwalbe Big Apple Tyre is so smooth.... I can recommend it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SuperSport Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 That's a good looking tire! Is it made for Unicycles? I haven't seen that one around yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyred Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 There doesn't seem to be an EUC on the pictures? Just kidding. Camo looks really cool, have fun riding it and getting some envious looks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I found it @ speedyfeet.uk and bought it in Germany.... Its so smooth like a build-in suspension! Here is the text to the tire: SCHWALBE BIG APPLE 16INCH 2.00 TIRE Fits the Ninebot ONE like a glove. ABOUT THE BIG APPLE The Big Apple started off the Balloonbike trend ten years ago: Comfortable cycling without using complicated technology! Air cushion tires are used as natural suspension. Inflated to around 2 Bar a Balloonbike rolls really easily and with a full suspension effect. A normal tire with a width of 37 mm must be inflated to a rock-hard 4 bar, in order to roll similarly well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BA-B8 Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 So this Big Apple tire basically just has a very soft sidewall? Any affect on handling? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ecko Posted January 26, 2016 Author Share Posted January 26, 2016 No the sidewall is just as the original tire... The profile makes it softer, handling is the same, the tire is quiter, bumps are not that hard and overall a smoother ride. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diggory 456 Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 What's the width of the tire compared to the e+/p stock? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperSport Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 I believe it's 2.0" as opposed to 1.75". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm surprised more people on the forum don't talk about the effect of tire width on stability. Especially at slow speed. my 2.5 on the Lhotz makes a world of difference to the stock Ninebot tire. Rock solid. You sacrifice in manoeuvrebility though. Ecko, i love how you've matched the grays in the camouflage pattern with the leg pad.....completely neutralizes the eyesore (in my opinion) of the ninebots stock colour scheme. ?

SuperSport Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 I have to say @Paddylaz, that Lhotz is a good looking wheel! Very Industrial, Means Business. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh I love it! It's a little chunkier than a 'bot, and I miss the integrated handle; but very sexy in the black/red configuration. The 2.5 tire is so stable that not too long ago I ran into a 'botter (new verb I'm inventing) in Hyde Park and we swapped wheels for fun. I immediately felt like a rookie again because the knife edge (in comparison) of the Ninebot wheel made me realize just how reliant/lazy I had become on the Lhotz.....especially at low speed. Also no tilt back until 27km/hr but unfortunately the beeping is so annoying from 23 onwards (much more intense than a Ninebot) that you'll rarely go that fast ?

SuperSport Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 Yeah, I have a hard time hearing the Warning Beep on the NineBot. I use the Pedal Tilt as my warnings. I do like the 'Knife Edge' though. I use 55 PSI in my tire because I like the exact control it gives. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perfect fit for my behavior! Can you tell me if your 2.00" tire has any more room on the Ninebot or does it fit exactly with no more room? I'm looking at some fat 2.125" BMX knobby tires and thinking if it fits that'll be really nice for off roading. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes but Mad Max is the same as the stock tire in width I think. I'm wondering if an off road tire that's also wider like the common 2.125" bmx ones would fit? That's why I asked how close the fit is on the 2" one you have. If there's more room then maybe a fat 2.125" tire might work and give both good all terrain traction and smooth ride.

Ecko Posted January 29, 2016 Author Share Posted January 29, 2016 There is more room to go an my 2.00" Big Apple Tire but i dont know if its working with 2.125"....the Big Apple got a really flat surface instead of a dirt tire with knobby profile Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was this a custom spray job by speedy? Still one of the most awesome customs I've seen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ecko Posted February 5, 2016 Author Share Posted February 5, 2016 Oh too much honor.... Lol... Its a total simple car wrapping foil. If you heat it you can wrap it perfectly around the corners, thats all.... But i have to destroy the design soon, i want those light blue shells...
