EUC Custom Power-Pads Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 I carelessly clicked on the video this time and when I realised who was in it, I stopped it immediately because I knew that I couldn't expect him to make any valuable or well-founded statements. Your statement then confirmed what I had suspected. Damn, I should have seen your post before!

I like the idea of tubeless no more tubes etc, what I don’t like is having to purchase a tire compressor and the added work making it to seal properly.

You would need knowledge, experience, and tools. I have an Abrams, which comes with a tubeless tire from the factory. Based on my ownership experience, I wouldn't say tubeless is better. Tube-type is not easier nor harder. If you want to mount a motorcycle/scooter tire on, either tube or tubeless would not be easy nor straightforward for someone who hasn't done it before. And for people with experience, it still requires some effort. Edited January 26 by techyiam 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can break the bead by fully deflating and then stepping directly on the bead with the edge of your shoe (right where the tire meets the rim). If the interface is proper, you don't even need any goo/sealant to put inside for it to work. The sealant is just there to instantly patch any slits/holes you might get in your tire while riding. But... if you're trying to get a rim + tire that aren't meant to be tubeless to go tubeless, or made poorly, that's when things get to be a pain. With old school setups like that, sometimes I needed a compressor to get it to seal. I'm hoping we can get closer to the mountain bike world, where it takes about 5 strokes of a floor pump to pop the tire on the bead 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice video but some critique, you claim that 50E has longer battery life than 50S, it's not true and have been proved not true, so at this point saying that is misinformation. 😉 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you think he may mean "battery life" as in higher discharge rate, because it can discharge faster than 50E? I am only saying this so they have room to correct. Only because if its misinformation, the reason is vague or obscure marketing to not have & hold onto specific model EUC's they would eventually not sell quickly or not @ all since them being a small retail shop in Spain, they likely have a smaller profit margin on these wheels due to import duties on certain products like these not made in spain, this is my best guess, & it's probably never a good look to admit, in public spaces that certain governments have challenging import tarrif structures. So sometimes it's also better to say that if a larger 50E inventory was purchased over 50S to cover up a technical error in judgment. Just so many ways to go about this.

versus Posted January 29 Share Posted January 29 (edited) Anyone coming from 16" wheel? I had V12HT and decided to replace before I end up badly injured (had cutout twice). Lynx is super comfortable but I miss that kick from smaller and lighter (torquier) whee and immediacy of the non- suspension. Will that buzz return after a while and one gets adjusted to Lynx's dimensions. Should i have chosen V14 or Paton? (I wanted to avoid Inmotion altogether).

After a certain length of time, you should feel that your Lynx rides normally, and a 16" wheel would feel too sensitive and twitchy. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m just here to reiterate what @techyiam said above. You will get used to it and then 12” rim wheels will feel small. You just need to adjust for somewhat larger body movements when riding. You loose some of the immediacy at starts and gain stability at speed. You will acclimate in 200-500 kilometres. Whether you should’ve chosen a smaller rim depends on your use case. It’s not a question of better and worse. I suggest you just enjoy the feeling of learning to ride again. You get good experience on this size rim and later you can compare to smaller again. When you buy your next wheel you’ll have more wisdom to choose then. Edited January 29 by UniVehje 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funny thing is that I miss the involvement that v12 required from you . I was mostly riding street. You needed to couteract every single obstacle (bumps, potholes, bulges), wheel would bonk on the asphalt creases and ride was incredibly dynamic. Now I feel like can go to sleep while riding. Suspension covers for all the small obstacles on the pavement and its weight and size extends the reaction time once you "forcefully" engage (instead of reacting to the pothole you can just go through it.) On the positive side you can now be more relaxed with jumping curbs instead of bonking them. Bonking works up to certain height and than afterrwards its really stressfull to do higher ones which require combining bump and deweight, I know, even non suspension wheels can be jumped onto curbs,- but suspension really makes it easy with preload and jump technique. Also downhill runs feel more stable whereas I would not be confortable to ride V12 over 40 Km/h on a winding downhill. Maybe it is offroad and speed where this wheel excels and I wanted to cover all the bases which It is not so ideal for my curent riding style. Hoping I would venture now more to offroading. Just looking forward to that umph that was really present with V12. I mostly reacted with mpulse to that fact that it dropped me and wanted something totally different as a replacement. Especially regarding safety. I hope, at least i got that with Lynx, as without it there is no peace of mind, no matter how appealing the ride feels. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really like it. I had the bearing spacer issue (some batch 1 models), so It's now at ewheels being repaired. I'm back on the V12, until then, but I ride on a lot of rocky roads, so I miss the Lynx bad. I had about 230 miles on it, and my pedals set very soft, like 10% I think.

The repair has been done , it needed a couple extra spacers on each side, some loctite was added on the motor faceplate for good measure. Should be back in your hands by Wednesday.
