Even if earth and sky is colliding. (Mostly because i need to be places..) I love riding in fresh, soft, just snowed snow. Snow goes over my feet/pedals. And behind i leave one tire print. And because of pedals trimming upper layer of snow, it looks like i have been riding sled with one tire.

Popular Post Cerbera Posted December 21, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted December 21, 2022 (edited) Master, Revision 2 (+Grizzla Master Fairings, front / rear bumpers, Flow Big Pads) Really impressed with the Grizzlas - much better fit and finish than the wheel itself Really does the job too - so adjustable, very protective, excellent pick-upability, mega comfortable, easy to attach, and with some really nice touches like screw covers, stickers, position markers etc (not shown). And everything arrives very nicely packed. Pro job. TPU is firm in the right places, and spongier in others, and doesn't budge once attached. Fairings and handles are solid. Grizzla even give me a nice xmas surprise - I had originally ordered Grizzla Bigs, but over the course of the next 4 weeks realised I should definitely have got the flows, so mailed them to ask if it was too late. They said sorry it was, already printed etc, and I was fine with that, but then they changed the order anyway, at the last minute and didn't tell me, which was delightfully awesome behaviour Very pleased, and happy to recommend them in every way !

When packing in the car, it would make the EUC longer and by adding weight to the front, the EUC leaning on wall wants to start moving by itself 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cerbera Posted January 1, 2023 Share Posted January 1, 2023 (edited) That looks pretty smart, and I like the supplementary pads you've cleverly worked onto the originals, and the cool lights. I'm not one for speakers playing music (situational awareness / pedestrian annoyance reasons), but I am looking for a similar low profile system so I can get some Tron stylee AVAS noises going so pedestrians can hear me coming and know if I am slowing down etc... How have you fixed that little JBL unit on ? I can't see what the straps are going into... Edited January 1, 2023 by Cerbera Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has rolled recesses for the mounting screws and attaches to the original screw sockets. I changed the screws to 2 cm longer ones. .I also made holes on this tin clip for attaching velcro straps. I made an EVA foam block for the design. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thinking about DIY seat for my 18xl. And maybe power pads. How hard/rigid are those blocks? I use EVA foam yoga blocks ( https://uniplast.ee/en/product/yoga-brick-amayaoga/ ) because they are very light and easy to process. This particular product is water-repellent in nature and flexible enough to not shrink over time. It is important for me that the treated surface remains of the same quality as the original outer surface of the block. With this material it is possible . It is possible to get exactly the right shape for you. Unlike 3d prints, in this form they can also be tried on and further processed during modeling. I make larger cuts with a saw or knife and shape them with this tool as shown in the picture. ( In addition ! My MSP, which also had pads made of this material, once survived a "proper" air flight on tarmac, and both those pads and the EUC fuselage remained intact! ) Edited February 13, 2023 by Raptor 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Riding seated on a non suspension wheel........Would the rider be ejected/catapulted off if the wheel hits a bump? Legs are not providing any cushioning to absorb bumps.

Legs are not providing any cushioning to absorb bumps. It can be a challenge to overcome bumps and holes in the road when you are sitting on a wheel without suspension - as always, it is important to pay close attention to the road and think ahead, Adjust the speed and then just lift yourself 5 - 10 cm from the seat and take the bump with your legs as suspension. And when you don't lift yourself up a bit, 3 things happen: 1) Solid blow in the balls.... 2) Resulting reaction in the form of unintentional involuntary movements of the torso, arms and legs which promotes 3) crash. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its 60x100mm, a bit wider than the stock cases. This allows for some more padding and provides a bit more area to velcro the Kinetic pads to. I've never seen the inside of these packs. Is this how they're protected from the factory? That layer of foam around them? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
