Hello Floaty Friends! I'm a camera & gadget nerd but this is my channel for sharing all things Onewheel, EVs, and PEVs! Check it out and subscribe if you follow similar interests! 🤙🏼
My board cut out, i feel and got some nasty abrasians and smacked the back on of my hwad on the cement. My saving grace was my full faced helmet! Board makes a weird clicky/beeping sound and as you said "loses power" or feels weaker despite having a full battery. Imm gonna take a look a the motor plug tomorrow and tru to clean it out.
Damn, sorry to hear. Techrails sells a replacement motor cable (you may also need the controller end too if that fried). I personally managed to do a repair with it, but resoldering straight to the board inside the motor was a bit tricky.
Hi, do you think the bike would be comfortable for someone who's 6 feet tall? I've watched a couple of videos of it and it kind of looks like your legs are scrunched up when riding. I'd like to not have to lift my legs up too close to my torso and be able to have them mostly extended at the bottom part of the pedaling.
I know exactly what you are talking about! That knee to chest pedaling is not fun. I'm 5'10" but swear I have the legs of a 6 footer (legs long, torso short lol). From my experience, it was fairly comfortable still, but it may have been because I didn't have to do much pedaling as I would on a non-ebike.
Oh man, don't get me started on camera nerd talk haha... I do have a list of what gear I mostly use in the description, but feel free to DM me on IG if you have specific questions!
Hahaha! I just did my first tire change, too, as well as adding the lifesavers. All the videos I watched made it look so easy. I was sweating like a whore in church , haha. Literally had to get down to my boxers. A couple blisters on my thumbs and palms later tho, we cruisin
Yea...i loathe having to change out a tire, especially if it's one of the stock harder durometer tires! They say there is some technique involved, but somehow it always alludes me!
I haven't been myself, but I hear there are all kinds of e-rides out there. Just might need to bring a generator if you ride it around a lot so you can charge it.
Been binge watching your videos since the review on the wheel light. Boy this video is the best one so far! So well put together. Very entertaining but boy did that require a lot of work to produce I’m sure! Awesome editing and storyline. Keep up the good work. Subscribed of course!
So i am having the same issue. It arched/snapped. I do see tech rails has the whole plug for sale. I was wondering if anyone would be apossed to me splicing a whole new plug on. In theory it should work right?
i kinda wish the two sides would stay in sync. still pretty sick tho. i know this isnt really feasible for most, but you can always go custom. i did some custom ones… super solid, run patterns as well as full color, and can be controlled with an app. can be found on my channel
Great instructional video. Thank you for putting this out. One question- I just installed my new WTF deep n steep, and the lifesavers following your videos. But I can’t seem to be able to reinstall my magnetic fender. The fender delete does not fit the shape of the WTFs. Any suggestions?
Yea, unfortunately standard fenders won't work anymore...maybe if you can find a 3d print that extends the mounting points, but haven't tried that personally. Most people I know who still want a fender buy the TFL Drop Top Fender, which is nice cause it's also easily removable. It's a little pricey, but feel free to use my 5% off code to save a few bucks "THATSGINTER" thefloatlife.com/products/drop-top-fender-kit-gt?_pos=1&_sid=7d53db80f&_ss=r
25% wow, that sounds high! I feel like I might have lost a few miles, but not that much! I think that since I'm on the lighter side, I'm less effected by the change. But yea, I'm not usually using all my battery, so it's an acceptable loss for most of my rides.
@@ThatsGinterEV I weight 90kg so it is like 198 pounds. I guess it depends on tire compound, i took soft compound, mid compound could be better for the range. And tire pressure is like 15-17 PSI, so not that low. It was big surprise with the tire and also big disappointment. Before i was riding hoosier treaded. Now with my girlfriend we are switching boards, she is 120 pounds and the difference after miles is not that big. She has hoosier too.
Rippin......Looks like a great time. I wrecked my ankle on 4/20/24 at 4:20pm. 🤕. 6 weeks down, but I am back now baby. Float Steady Brothers... If you ever make it up to North Idaho hit us up. HWY 54 Crew
Hi! Thanks for the video. It does take a while to assemble. To anyone out there reading: I’ve never used an ebike before. Is it fair to assume that if the motor ir running and I hit the breaks it’ll just shut down but the bike will continue to run by inertia? And also, the manual’s got me a little confused, if I’m pedaling, do I just hit the “+” button to activate the motor? I son’t want to land on my face just cuz I didn’t fully grasp how it works. Please enlighten me a little. Thank you!
Hi. If you squeeze the breaks, it will brake like normal, but also cut any motor power if being used as well. The + and - buttons should adjust the power the motor delivers per rotation of the pedal. So if you want more assistance from the motor, use + button, but if you want more of a workout, use - button.
This is a tough call. I like both, the Enduro is a great hybrid tire that is agile and holds an edge, but I did feel more stable on the FM Performance Treaded tire due to it's wider profile. Keep in mind, if you do use/buy the MTE 5" hub, the FM Performance tire will not fit!
Great set up! I'm running this on my GT: Mte 5" hub n52 mags Street pro tire (soft) 17 psi Wtf rails Drop top fender Float blocks Landsurf fangs GT (so great) 4mm foam grip front+back Kush wide rear foot pad
Not sure if we have the same definition of ghosting. In my experience, ghosting is when you step or jump off the board and it continues to accelerate with no rider on it. If you are referring to the board just dumping you on a slow carve (happens often when you are just rocking back and forth at a stop light), yes, it should help.
Occasionally yes, but there are a few reasons I don't wear it that often. 1 - I realize that I only really need the lights if I ride at night, which is less frequent. 2 - The weight is still something that I can feel, and prefer a lighter helmet most the time. 3 - It's nice and more expensive then my other helmets, so I don't want to get it all scratched up lol.
I'm sorry to hear this, why does it not work with the Action 4? It says should work with any action camera. The tracking is independent of software interoperability, so I'm guessing it's a mounting or weight/balance issue?
I am back on my Pint but I ate it bad on a cattle guard yesterday. Thankfully not terribly injured but did sustain some damage under my right elbow and my right knee got hit slightly. Counting my blessing and by the way nice shredding. 🏜️
I bought two OG Pints from Future Motion in the past. One I kept in the box for approximately two years or more. The second one I had 44 miles on it. I charged it in the winter months but didn't use it much. A couple of months later went to turn on the board and it would not turn on. I live in Arizona where the weather doesn't get to cold and the board was inside. I find it to be unacceptable. I have yet to send it back. Will in the near future. 🤷🏻♂️
C'mon man, you know that on 420 you gotta grab a Bud... Not really, but it's funny to think about. It's my way of participating without partaking, if you catch my drift. Also, your code worked just fine in conjunction with the TFL 420 sale.
I've been following your videos for a while but I missed this one. This was actually huge. Thanks for the PSA. I am already very anal about loading up on dielectric grease but I never even thought to make sure my connectors are clean before plugging in.
Regrettably, it does not. I'd look into The Float Life Dub Tails instead, no re-level required for updated GT or GTS! thefloatlife.com/products/gt-gt-s-homebrew-rails-dub-tails?variant=44993969127646
Hard to diagnose with little info. I'd first check the motor cable, but if that looks fine, carefully open up the controller and look around for anything out of the norm...black marks, loose plugs, popped/loose capacitor.
Not gonna lie, I had the whole handlebar setup backwards at first, loosened up the handlebar stem bolt and flipped it around and once straight, just tightened it down.
How is the stability and carving of the 655 vs FM Performance Treaded? I was thinking about getting the 655 but not on MTE hub because they’re out of stock and I use the maghandle daily 😅.
You always have the best shots, best videos, best editing and the best creativity in putting all those together out of all the onewheel videos that I've ever watched so far. With your consistent great videos and creativity, you never ceases to amaze me and that's why I love watching your video content and creativity every time. 👏👏👏
