Jalious Posted July 15, 2023 Share Posted July 15, 2023 We got our hands on a Commander Mini here at Ride One and wanted to push its limits and see how it compares to similar 16 inch suspension wheels on the market like the Veteran Patton. Spoiler Alert: It's fast. Like, stupid fast. Check it out to see just how quick we get this powerhouse to go! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bpong Posted July 17, 2023 Share Posted July 17, 2023 (edited) i have to give rideone credit on this video. they didnt act like jerky-boyz in downtown traffic but chose to ride late nite. at least EMS would have an easy time finding their limp bodies on the street should anything have happened out of the ordinary. well done for a change...minus the dick-faced masterburtory maneuvers from the patton street vid... footnote; Seb, please stop blowing thru the red lights.... dont want to see you get hurt by some 3000lb+ vehicle(s)...i know its late nite but never say never...

varamontelo Posted July 17, 2023 Share Posted July 17, 2023 I ask the forum to delete this video and contact the member who insists in his behavior, this is contrary to the charter of the site, topic already reported in the past on other pages.

Mango Posted July 17, 2023 Share Posted July 17, 2023 This review has actually swayed me towards the Commander mini against the Patton. I need more make diversity in my current wheel lineup. Got to see proper reviews of the Extreme before making my final purchasing decision. Patton or Commander mini or Extreme 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got to see proper reviews of the Extreme before making my final purchasing decision,.... you going to wait out the end of 2023 into early 2024 to see what Inmotion has, or you set for end of 2023 ? if you made it this far, im guessing you got the patience for 2024. i know i do, im not spending a cent yet - this year seems to be a pivotal year for new euc models as mentioned by other postings... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because he is creating a link specific to Ride on (his shop) it's kind of advertising. This could be seen as slightly against the guidelines. When Eevee's* post its never under an Eevee's* header its always through the appropriate section. *Other resellers are available. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

varamontelo Posted July 17, 2023 Share Posted July 17, 2023 ok with bpong. I agree for part of the video interesting in comparison with the other. My opinion concerns the repetition of the behavior of the member with always the danger in the videos. We can't leave people on the street running towards a truck at night. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its "badass driving" till we get either ticketed, or get killed in oncoming traffic, or worse still, we have to begin paying for our hobby. Stupid is as stupid does... and we all have takened risks riding our wheels at some point,... doesnt justify bravado, and it hurts the pev community...

It's definitely a valid point but I think regulation and enforcement is inevitable. The same thing will happen in here in Norway to. We were the only country in the world to ban sale and usage of skateboards. The law lasted for 11 years. People still made skate ramps in the woods and skated elsewhere despite the law. Just because something becomes illegal doesn't mean you have to stop doing it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only didn't myself because I saw there weren't any other critical comments so assumed mine would be removed ! Don't get me wrong - I bear you no ill will or hostility at all - I've already said what great riding skill it was, and I did enjoy the whole video and review, but it was also literally the perfect and only ammunition these controlling authorities need to 'justify' a nation-wide (public areas) ban and mega-harsh enforcement of it, an d the popularity / wide distribution of it and crazy moves within almost guarantee someone from the transport authority will be sent it or see it some other way... and I am genuinely surprised that this thought didn't occur to any of you while you were making it ! You're not even the worst - that'll be the NYC nutters who post this sort of behaviour and a lot worse time and time again - I appreciate their videos too, but they really are a bomb waiting to explode in our faces, and it's all of us, even the really careful considerate riders who will suffer as result..

Popular Post Jalious Posted July 18, 2023 Author Popular Post Share Posted July 18, 2023 I also apologize for the reposts, I'm genuinely not intending to. I try to post once in its own forum and once in the threads forum.

varamontelo Posted July 18, 2023 Share Posted July 18, 2023 All ads must go in the corresponding ad section of the forum. In the interest of our members, if you are going to advertise your electric unicycle store, company, or products it should be something that the vast majority of our members are very likely WANTING to see. Do not do this more than once a week and bumping your ads unnecessarily. Also make sure the ad is significantly different from your previous one.

The Brahan Seer Posted July 18, 2023 Share Posted July 18, 2023 We have had this discussion come up before. Remember the NY bomb anyone? Ultimately the footage always looks a lot worse than it is in real life. We all know when you are there how different the experience and speed and distances are. Also different parts of the world have totally different driving styles and norms. In the UK we have very strong lane discipline for instance. Whilst living overseas one city I lived in it was the norm to run red lights. You always held back a second when it went green. Some countries driving looks totally random to the outsider but it works for the locals. Whats normal for the spider is chaos to the fly. This hobby is so dangerous at present. EUC's should be called BB's (bone breaker's). But they are so much fun until they are not. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
