The electronic whine on my EUC is making me want to return it

Does anyone else get really bothered by the high pitch whine some EUCs make when they’re on but not moving fast?

I’m not even talking about while riding really, mostly when standing still or walking next to the wheel. There’s this super high frequency sound that just drills into my head after a while. It genuinely makes me irritated and I can’t stop focusing on it.

Today I went to a local dealer to compare a bunch of wheels because I thought maybe my nosfet aero had something wrong with it. But apparently not. The Nosfet/Leaperkim stuff was by far the loudest to me. Others were way more tolerable, with special mention for KingSong S16 that was basically completely silent. I would love to swap to it, but its almost 10kg heavier and aero is already at the limit of what I want.

Now I’m honestly considering returning the wheel because I can already tell this is gonna keep bothering me. Maybe I’m just sensitive to certain frequencies or something.

Did anyone else have this problem and get used to it eventually? Or did you switch wheels because of it?

Begode Blitz Pro Groupbuy update for EU customers

I just reached to Begode to get an update on delivery estimations.

They told me the manufacturing was delayed due to material shortages and therefore they'll be able to ship.it to EU in June. That means final delivery around august to September.

Not good news....

Pedal side angle

Hi,

I'm riding aeon for 47km so far and before rode ks16 for similar amount. (so noob).

I really like aeon, specially that my feet now fit on pedals 🤣 , but i don't like that they are angled towards the unicycle. My ankles either need to cave in and left foot gets quite tired after 10min, right one a bit later.

Is this something you get used to, or i should get adjustable pedals where i can make the angle to the side smaller (closer to horizontal)?

What do I need to charge individual battery cells on Commander Mini?

My Mini sat for over 8 months while waiting to be repaired and now that its fixed, it has a constant beep. I read in other posts that this is likely due to a battery cell imbalance. What do I need in order to charge individual battery cells? I saw that I need a variable voltage charger, but which one and where do I get it? What do I use to attach it and what amperage do I set it to?

First EUC Options?

Im in the US thinking about choosing between the begode a2 or mten5, I mainly want one just to fun around town. Right now the a2 is 490 but says it won't be here until sometime July, and the mten doesn't say anything but is 580. I know that the mten has a smaller wheel.

Which EUC challenge would you actually join?

Saw Kingsong is doing a global ride challenge thing.

If you had to pick one: night ride, off-road, city ride, or range?

Night ride sounds the most fun to watch imo lol

Beginner question

Recently bought the inmotion v12s since it was on sale. This will be my 1st euc. Always wanted one and curious about them. The only thing I’m worried about is it hard to learn on. Especially this model for a newbie

What’s going on with this hobby?

You don’t see that much innovation no more besides speed and even those new wheels are slowly being released. Even Begode hast announced a wheel in months. Inmotion is charging too much for old wheels. You don’t see wheels on fb marketplace for sale often anymore (AND IM CURRENTLY LOOKING FOR One) but if you do it’s just people trying to over price them. Is inflation killing this hobby completely? And if you’re letting go in the metro area lmk

Nofest Aero and Aeon

​

I got the Inmotion V9 and I’m not really a fan of it.

I currently own the Aeon, but I’m thinking of replacing the V9 with the Aero. Honestly, I’m not looking for speed or super long range. Since I don’t drive, the Aero seems like it would be easier to bring on the subway and carry around downtown.

My idea setup

🛞 Aeon (off-road) → weekend rides / rough Montreal roads / longer sessions

🛞 Aero (hybrid tire) → learning / errands / metro / fun / city carving

Surfer - Snowboarder - Skater looking to get into EUCs

Hello!

I've been surfing, snowboarding and skating my whole life and have been watching some videos on EUCs, and they look dope as hell. Only thing is the stance, which don't look too natural for me. So ive been looking around to no prevail for an EUC where you stand sideways.

Does that exist?

Any ideas what this noise is?

Got this used begode a2 a few weeks ago. It was already in less than good shape and I dropped it a few times. It makes this vibrating, friction noise when I'm just going forward and I don't know what's causing it. It comes and goes randomly but it usually disappears whenever I'm on an incline or decline.

I've tightened all the bolts i could see on it without taking everything apart, and I checked for any debris or bent parts and couldn't find any. The wheel spins freely when it's off, it only makes this noise when I'm on it and moving and even then it's inconsistent.

Any ideas would be appreciated

Turning at high speed

So I’m riding at 30-35 mph and accelerating while taking a long, sweeping turn. Twice now I’ve experienced the wheel feeling like it just does not want to turn for me. Like the wheel just wants to keep going straight even though I feel like I’m leaning hard into the turn. Both times I thought I was going to crash into the curb, but I was able to slow down and turn the wheel. It was a bit frightening though. Both times there was a fair amount of wind and I’m wondering if this has something to do with it. My wheel is the P6.

Can anyone explain what’s going on here and do you maybe have some tips for taking this long sweeping turns at speed (I know 35mph isn’t that fast, but I’m still learning!)
