eezo Posted August 10, 2023 Share Posted August 10, 2023 The new default pedal dip adjustment in the new firmware is significant . Not in a bad way, but I noticed just how different by accident when I was trollying the wheel. I leaned it to take a sharp corner and it accelerated on me. Once I felt that, I started trying out riding slow and taking sharp small turns. The change is very apparent in low speed sharp 180's, you can feel the wheel accelerating under you. I read something earlier in the thread about the brake light doing differing things based on how it senses your speed and braking. Mine doesn't change during deceleration, just a solid red color even when braking hard. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there a speed from which you need to be braking in order to get it to blink? Or how fast you need to brake to trigger it?

BKW Posted August 28, 2023 Share Posted August 28, 2023 (edited) Anyone experience a rubbing feeling coming from their CP suspension? It even creaks a rubbing sound and I can feel the rubbing when it shifts up and down. Started softly and now it's very pronounced. Any ideas? I'll have to take it apart again and look at it but just curious if anyone else experienced this or have any ideas what it might be Edited August 28, 2023 by BKW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheNotoriousEUC Posted August 28, 2023 Share Posted August 28, 2023 How many miles do you have on it? I haven’t but I have less than 150 miles. All street. No grass or dirt unless I made a wrong turn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I recall this being something that happened with normal use, though none of mine have come off in ~800 miles. Also, check your tire. I had two friends have tire rubbing and unseating of a specific duro tire recently. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheNotoriousEUC Posted September 4, 2023 Share Posted September 4, 2023 This is likely more of a general question but since I have a CP I’ll post it here. I have been riding my wheel at 32 PSI. I decided to increase it to 36 and the wobbles I was getting were a lot. I hadn’t had that issue with accelerating until today; only with braking from a high speed, quickly. It was windy today but I don’t think it was too much more than any other somewhat windy days. Just wondering if it takes a beat to get used to the higher PSI? Or could really have just been the wind and it was a bit more than I’m used to. I have had it out on breezy days and maybe today was slightly more but perhaps it was just enough for me to have issues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BKW Posted September 4, 2023 Share Posted September 4, 2023 (edited) PSI means A LOT when it comes to stability on EUCs. Likely, if it feels too wobbly for you then it probably is your PSI being too high, unless you’re a new rider and wobbles are somewhat common for you still. Are you riding the stock knobby or a street tire? I know the k340A street tire has max PSI of 33, not sure of the stock knobby though. Also, the lighter you are the less PSI you may need in general. I do think when you get “better” your ability to ride at higher PSI gets better, but there still is a point where it’s just too high and makes stability harder.

TheNotoriousEUC Posted September 4, 2023 Share Posted September 4, 2023 (edited) That is the tire I have (K340A) but it says 40 psi. I may bump it down a couple. I just want to do what I can from banging the rim up going down a curb on occasion. Thanks a lot for the feedback. I really appreciate it. And I am still fairly new to riding but I haven’t dealt with these while accelerating, before.

Going down a curb you hit a flat surface. There’s no danger for your rim unless you go under maybe 15 psi. Bonking up a curb or hitting a sharp pothole is what dents the rims. I think the good psi range for motorcycle tires on EUCs is about 25-30. Lighter riders may be fine with 22 psi, but I would never go below that since the chance of the tire slipping on the rim and tearing the tube’s valve stem off is too large. And the stiff tires are just too hard at 35 psi and above, which seems to be what you experienced. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might wanna double check as my k340a says max psi at 33.

BKW Posted September 10, 2023 Share Posted September 10, 2023 I don't know much about the different names of tires, but that is not the same as mine. The ks340A should look like this: https://www.ewheels.com/product/20x3-tire-kenda-340a-sherman-rs/ Yours looks more hybrid. Although, it is also considered a street tire (I have seen that tire before, just not on the CP). I also got mine from ewheels, but I ordered it separately after I bought the CP (ewheels didn't assemble it for me). Anyone who knows tires better than me could probably tell you what is the name of your tire Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BKW Posted September 10, 2023 Share Posted September 10, 2023 Have you ever found where that high-pitched sound is coming from? It might be due to the tire being the wrong size since it's not a k340a? Do you know the dimensions of that tire? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got 5000 miles on mine and want another one, but Alien Rides stopped selling them because some are defective.

I had to wait a while for mine as they were on back-order at the time though. If you're talking about TheNotriousEUC tire, not sure if they hold those, but they probably do 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrelwood Posted September 11, 2023 Share Posted September 11, 2023 (edited) This is the Kenda K340A: The tire on @TheNotoriousEUC’s wheel is indeed a hybrid one similar to the one some V12HTs come with.

What does it say on the tire? Looks like my tire is by “TopSin,” not to be confused with “TopSpin,” or maybe that’s the point. 😉 When making the choice on eWheel’s site I simply selected Street Tire which indicates the Kenda340A…clearly that’s not what arrived with mine but no complaints. @BKWNo, the high whine I think is not uncommon with the CP. I can hear it on other videos of people with it and have chalked that sound up to normal. The rubbing noise I still can’t figure out and have been back and forth with Eric and Jason about. There was that one ride where it was making a really troubling sound when I braked but I haven’t heard it since so, who knows? I put about 20 miles on it last weekend and heard nothing concerning. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrabChampion Posted October 14, 2023 Share Posted October 14, 2023 Commander Pro 50S coming. I believe 50S cells and c40 motor from the EX30. Wonder how the wider rim but higher batteries (than the ex30) affect its handling 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems weird that the CP is looking to run the same motor as the EX30. Two wheels now very similar, although I guess they are made by 'different' companies. The CP definitely has a smaller form factor but would the higher CofG on it make it less easier to handle with the heavier, wider C40 motor than the EX? I think that anyone looking to buy an EX30 or CP now will have some tough choices to make! The 2 wheels will be so close on specs now (taking aside the 50S cells).
