radial Posted June 27, 2017 Share Posted June 27, 2017 Well finally! I've been riding for several months now, but very conservatively as I climb up the learning curve. Finally rode far enough this evening to experience tiltback on the Ninebot E1+. I've been a little concerned about whether this would prove to be helpful or possibly harmful. I mean, when the machine is already under stress, it seems like a really bad idea to have the pedals you are standing on suddenly go wonky. But it was fine. There was a mild but noticeable sensation of tilt and an audible alarm. Just backed off the speed of my descent down the hill where it happened, and kept things chill on the way home.

radial Posted June 27, 2017 Author Share Posted June 27, 2017 I didn't get the charger plugged in all the way, so I had a little more experience with tiltback on the 9bot. Very civilized. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
