@@XtremeDSLR the TPU swing arm bushing is actually 3D printed! I have a link in the description, but if you wanted one printed I could make them available for purchase.
@@XtremeDSLR I would just recommend using the firmest filament you can find. I used 95A and it is holding up great but 98A or even 65D would probably be the most optimal.
The only thing I haven't had to replace on my m20 so far is the frame. People like to mod their stuff yes, but usually they want to. This bike will make you mod because you NEED to. Just my experience.
Got the bike today. took me 2h and 20m to assemble. mecfs isnt a fun condition/disability. Looks good, runs well. and I got a roadmap to the bike thanks to you Ross. Tomorrow be a bit more out testing.
I have had zero issues with the shunt mod, but I am also mindful of how I use the bike. I usually only need the power for relatively short hills or accelerating up to speed. Most electric motors are rated for their continuous output but can take quite a bit more current for brief periods; I imagine it's possible to overheat the motor or controller at 1500w if you used full power for an extended period of time such as extended hill climbing. Even with the shunt mod, on level ground full throttle only draws about 600w as top speed appears to be limited by peak motor RPM and not power output. The peak current should be within spec for the components I found in my controller provided it doesn't overheat.
@@Pilotgeek Thanks, appriciated your reply as I ordered one I just wanted to know if I do that shunt mod later I know what i get into. I live in a slightly hill area depending where one go. I guess i find out if its enough as is or if it needs the mod later. due to disability i have to use trottle only.
@@RobertJohanssonRBImGuy I would try it on throttle only first. It's definitely perfectly adequate as-is. I mostly did the mod just out of curiosity and to see if it would increase the top speed, which it did not.
Thank you for sharing your update on M20! I enjoy riding mine too even through all kinds of weather. I look forward to upcoming winter here in Lithuania to ride this one 😅 Also you are spot on about other ones making a quick review and unboxing on this e-bike, and then forgetting about it completely. Nice to see a quality update and review of heavy use. 💪👍
Hi very good video. I have also an Engwe M20 an i would like top add blinkers. Which one do you installed, where can i buy them an how is the Installation of them? Would bei great If you can Help me
@@androidphone8375 There is an eBay link in the description for blinkers. They work well because they are already wired up and you only need to splice in battery voltage. This can be taken from the headlight power cable.
@@RoyalAlbert besides adding grommets to the headlights, I have not had to do anything as far as waterproofing. I have ridden through rainstorms and wet snowstorms and it is my dedicated bad weather bike for good reason. The fenders work very well to keep me dry, and the stock electronics seem very well sealed.
Adding Grommets to the headlight doesn’t change the cooling function of the headlight? And wow that’s really nice bro, definitely waiting on mine to get delivered.
@@RoyalAlbert I doubt it would make much difference, the case itself is metal so dissipates some heat. I have seen others with headlights fail from water damage so I guess I would rather it be sealed personally.
@@kingnull2697 I think some of my problems were self induced. The suspension pivot was probably not designed to have offset torque of someone putting significant pedal force through it. Same with the low stock seat; it wasn't really meant to be pedaled much. In stock form, it is honestly fine enough but I like to upgrade things a bit too much. I was happy with it out of the box, but as time went on, curiosity got me to try new things but that's part of the fun of a cheap bike to me. Torque arm and dropout mods also probably aren't necessary, but I previously modded the controller to output 50% more power.
Hi, great and informative video. I know you 3d printed the headlight grommets, but I don't have a 3d printer. My question to you is, what size grommets could be purchased to come as close to what you printed? Thanks again for a very informative video!
I looked around for a while but didn't find a direct bolt up, though I'm guessing a kit for the Roadrunner RS5 would fit? If I find one cheap I may try it, but after getting the feel of the scooter more I don't get the wobbles anymore. Currently at about 500 miles on the scooter so I may do a follow-up video soon.
Thank you for this. I've been searching for a good pannier bag setup for my X26 which I bought a 2 months ago. I wasn't sure if I should buy the Engwe bag, but seeing how you mounted it, resolved my concern. I do have to state that you mentioned a lot that the X26 was badly designed, but I think it was probably an older model, because everything you showed in your video for this X24, my X26 also has. Also, can you post a link where you bought your mirror?
@@just_pbi Yes, the X24 was released alongside the "new" X26 where they fixed all the same issues. Bar end mirror should be linked in description of video.
awesome job! quick question: do you think it would be possible to use micropython and turn the scoutXL rover into a self-driving vehicle? i don't see why not, but i'm just a total newbie. thanks!
Yes, I'm sure it's possible. I thought about adding an HC-SR04 sonar sensor to the front and making a little bot for my son to play with using the same chassis. In my experience, it works well to steer a robot using light sensors on each side to make "casual" steering choices away from dark areas, and a sonar sensor to detect if you get close to something.
@@Pilotgeek thanks! I have been thinking about some kind of lightweight machine learning model to avoid obstacles as a demonstration for high school students. Just got some parts in the mail! Will keep you posted!
Thank you the video helped me a lot 👏👍 yes I didn't have it as fast as it seemed easy but I made it 😂😂 now finally the fork works somehow. I have to hold out till Christmas then there comes the fork from Fox . Unfortunately it's made for 27.5 rims not 20 rims . The difference between the 20 and 27.5 fork is 13cm in length but it will change the geometry and load on the frame. After much consideration I replaced the rear shock with a Fox spring shock 230mm long due to the weight of the bike and what I expect the characteristics on the second Dh bike I even replaced the air for a spring and sold the air shock. From your next video I changed the converter for a bigger one and I don't have to pedal like a hamster in a cage at speeds over 30km/h. I still want to try to increase the performance from your video but I'll leave that to the professional. I don't want to destroy the driver and wait many days for a new one.
I have seen others opt for longer forks in the front, even with a larger tire as well. It looks a bit odd but seemed to work okay, especially if you do raise the rear with a longer shock. Good luck!
@@LuisMercadoorg Have not tested the newest version yet, but I have seen a few other videos demonstrating all the additional features and performance gains since. It's wild how much optimization they were able to squeak out of the Doom engine.
Its actually right that's not the oval room the light placement is different, so this room is some other room, the said they changed the ceiling not the lights so it's really not the backrooms
my first experience with doom was on my grandma's 486 dx66, which ran it almost full speed. back in 1993. then in 1994 i bought my first pc, a 486 dx4 100mhz that i upgraded to 16mb of ram. it blazed through this game. it could even play duke nukem 3D at 640x480 with tolerable frame rates. (not good at all, but i still played it like that sometimes just for the look at the future with all the eye candy)
@@mr.wigglemunch3856 I would scour ebay or facebook marketplace. That said, I have spent a lot of time on abikecentral.com forums and it seems the original really was not much better. If you want something about as small, you can look for the Pacific CarryMe. I just got one recently and it's SO much better to ride.
