Great points! Never ever leave with out a helmet! And also having visible, colourful colours is a great idea. I use black gear way too often, but I do have some reflectors to compensate 😅
Thanks for the shout out in this one. Super useful information here, ride safe! ⚡️💪
Thank you. I can never express how important protective gear is wether on electric scooter or motorcycle. Thank you again for sharing.
This is exactly the info I was looking for, man. I've been looking for a breakdown on what's available in helmets and why.
Amazing video bro! Love the in depth sharing of your knowledge and the funny montages. You got yourself a new subscriber :)
Just a tip, it would be a good ideea to make/find affiliate links for all the stuff you share here, and give links so you can monetize your time better
Thank you a lot for your appreciated reviews and tips.
I ride with a helmet (fav cooler weather is the tsg pass), gloves …that’s my safety gear. I don’t ride for fun, i ride as a form of transportation. Anyone who rides, or desires to ride for fun should gear up. I ride my escooter just to arrive somewhere conveniently. I’ve never ridden an euc, but i love its form factor, small, range, and the hands free factor. I was ready to buy when a 16” had suspension by a company that put out well engineered quality that’s been reviewed by folks like Wrong Way. Also held off wondering if i could react quick enough in an emergency. I rode a “rice burner”motorcycle, zx14, both ways, commuting and fun, i really had lots of safety gear. I now use my pev like i would a bicycle, helmet and gloves. Fun riders really need to listen to wrong way. As a commuter, i ride at a safe speed, not fast enough to come up on a road obstacle and be surprised. My helmets do have built in visors, a bug or kicked up pebble from a car getting into the eyes is a real hazard not to mention wind driven pollen. My ride lower than 25mph (second gear, no reason to go to high plus i get more range) on open road and slower when things get busy. The most important thing I ride with is experience. I ride looking for what I think is going to happen, my eyes sees small things that drivers start to do before turning, changing lanes, etc so i slow down and let them. Many drivers only see where they want to go, nothing else, even a bright red car next to them is unknown. Many motorcycle riders rev or put loud pipes or even remove the baffling on their bikes to be heard. So as a pev rider I accept that I simply am invisible. Other than gloves with a little palm padding for comfort, i wear my normal clothing. I live in an urban setting, finding parking is ridiculous, as can be traffic so I prefer my pev to my car. I ride bike lanes, i added a mirror to go with my peripheral vision, and i believe everyone should get their experience level raised, respect the road, assume you are not seen even by the guy in parked car opening his door or the pedestrian walking between parked cars into the street.
Wise words and ditto. I commute on a Burn-E 2 Max or on my Bandit 1200 motorbike but sensibly and considerately are the key words 🤘
For balaclavas, I would recommend Phunkshun because they have wrap and balaclavas in various levels (sun to winter snow) and in several colors/designs. The cap/mask work well for me, but the mask/neck cover ones runs a little small in same size in my opinion because it’s harder to stay on with just the ears holding them in place. That’s my recommendation after trying to find something that works for my needs
Hi Adam, thanks for the video, for winter gear i use cashmere or merino turtleneck as base layer and a goose down jacket for isolation, it keeps me warm for a weather around 0 degrees, i also use merino tights, socks and leather boots. the goal is being warm and keeping the weight as minimal as possible, i put my protective gear on top, i try to select protective gear that are easy to put on and off.
Well done for this video. ‘Always safety first’ 👍
At the end of the video where you show the gear it reminds me of Sims when you are selecting clothes.
I would of thought it's just common sense what you need to ride a scooter but, very informative video. I have regular skating knee pads but, your absolutely right. Shin guards as well much more helpful. Thanks! Great video! 👍
great info the word you were looking for is a 'visor' or peak ' hope that helps as you have helped me soo much xD great job thank you @Wrong Way
Keep it up! Your videos are very helpful 👍🏼
Thanks! Will do!
You’re a machine! Your output is fantastic
True! Plus does his own backgroundmusic incl singing ! Slim pale polish genius :)
as an introvert person i hate wearing colors that stands out in the crowd and i get noticed, i just add more blinkers on my body / helmet
Also a good idea :)
Good video: just what I was looking for. I have an O’Neil motorcycle helmet and an IXS trigger full face mountain bike helmet for enduro. You are right, the motorcycle helmet is too heavy, and the vision is limited compared to my other. I usually wear Fox gloves all the time. Have a pair for everything. But I did just order gloves with knuckle guards and finger guards. . I just got my EMove Cruiser two days ago. It is way more scooter than I need power wise. I am a 55 years young lady. I tried My mountain bike full face helmet and it is safer for sure and has very good air flow! And great wide vision area. The gif lock is great! It’s Light so my neck won’t hurt. I won’t ride much in the winter but the summer is hot so wear fox pads and motorcycle pants. Also wearing a high visibility reflective vest! Bright neon yellow.
Awesome 😎 thanks brother 🙏
Great advice, outdated but still relevant. Maybe next time add links or list the kit so peeps can google. Safe riding 🤘
Thanks for doing this I had to find out the hard way, but for scooter riding you are typically okay with MTB protection gear. There are two things which you kinda of touched on but will mention now the first is riding jeans which is definatley a must for me, and the second is a rear red light on the top of your helmet, it makes a huge diffierence to how visible you are. Thanks for the tip about covering vents. Super helpful video thanks.
Heya if you get time, may want to look into CE ratings for protective gear, just been researching impact forces and how they correspond to CE ratings don't think i would ever buy less than CE lever 2 for riding a a fast scooter.
@@frederickoparah1669 haven't thought ot that, thanks for the info
Great info!
I am still looking for gear that will get me to work dry should I ride to work in the rain. I find a good quality rain suit easily enough but the helmet set up is of the most concern to keep rain out.
Cheers
If you buy a downhill MTB fullface helmet (which are cheaper than a decent motorcycle helmet) cover the vents with some electrical tape for the winter or rainy weather and remove the tape for summer riding 🤘
Hello I want a light helmet for my rides for the dualtron which do u recommend because I look back at cars and stuff like that but I don't want it to be heavy and not get tired of wearing it
I was just gonna get legit motorcycle gear, sounds like the easiest and best options
A downhill MTB helmet and goggles would be cheaper than a decent motorcycle skid lid. Unless you already have one.
thank you for this video!!👌✌🤘
I am having problem with the helmet purchase now. What circumference of head u have and what is size of your o'niells helmet? I have 58cm but my head hurts very much and even size L seems a bit tight... weird. I noticed u have single foam in your first red helmet.
What would you recommend for knee and elbow protection for summer time? Should it be hard shell guards, or d3o soft pads?
One is hard on impact but helps sliding, the other absorbing impact but will get ripped or slide off knees🤔
I was looking into:
Leatt dual axis, or Fox Titan - for hard shell
And
Demon hyper x, or Fox launch d3o - for soft one
Please help to make a right decision 🙏🏻
D3O is the way ahead. Take it from a motorcylist. I wear kevlar lined demin jeans with D30 pads in knees and hips. You can get slip on D3O pads with elasticated sleeves now. Hard shell pads may split on impact and could break your skin around the edges leading to secondary whereas D3Os will absorb initial impact and may slip when sleeved leading to abrasion injuries. If the pads are fitted in say kevlar jeans then there should be limited movement if its properly fitted. Maybe get cut off kevlar jean shorts? Just my opinions but whatever you choose: safe riding 🤘
Hi, what size of Leatt Dual Axis Knee Guards you use?
I know a man who is riding on Techife X9 with "skate" helmet no fullface. Maybe he will change it after losing own teeth.
Hey what's the name of the colorful helmet that you had on the beginning i like it!
Model of the goggles please?
Also the heated gloves?
Thanks! Great content!
Where did you get that helmet I want the exact same one
Hi guys, new EUC rider here. With regards to knee protection, are knee or shin pads sufficient, or does anyone recommend knee braces? Cheers.
Where can I buy that exact Oakley helmet
So having an bright orange fox proframe helmet is good in your eyes lam with you
How do you clean the sweat from those helmets?
Where did you got the wrist mirror I saw with you in some of your videos?
I bought it locally in Poland. Could be available as atv hand/wrist mirror?
I wear prescription glasses. Do you know any goggles that allow for prescription glasses? Thanks in advance!
can u send a link for the first helmet
Hi! You should really try the helmet. Fit is one the most important aspects of security.
I ride my 5/10 Mtb shoes they are crazy grip and litle bord tape and it's not going nowhere
Where's the link to the mtb downhill helmet bro?
Hi. Is a Fox Proframe good enough for a mid to higher tier electric kick scooter?
Depends on the speeds really. Over 40-45 kmh I would suggest a motorcycle helmet
I'm a hip pad kind of guy.
Anyone know what bike that is behind him?
Is this a guide for protective gear for riding electrics scooters etc, or a guide of what to wear when spending a year in Antarctica?
Można prosić linki do akcesori i prosimy rób filmiki z napisami dla nas :) Pozdrawiam.
Safety first. 👍
I just use my motorcycle gear when i am driving my electric scooter, but i have bought a dirt bike helmet since i don’t want to use my motorcycle helmet on my electric scooter
I don't understand why off-road/down-hill/adventure style helmets are so popular with scooters. I use a jet helmet (Laxer Tango Hexa) and is perfect. Light, maximal visibility, sun vistor...
How many electric vehicles do you personally own?
Hi! Personally i jist own the GotWay Nikola 84V, an InMotion VtF and a Hoverboard.
Which O’Neal helmet is that? Their website has so many that look the same.
It's the Oneil Backflip...color is Muerta. I think they quit making them though :(
@@PottersWork thank You
@@BattleRidesNYC, no problem! I was pretty bummed they aren’t making them anymore. I like it a lot too!
Wow
What type of gear to wear if riding a 23 mph e scooter?
id say mtbiking gear is p good, just please dont wear shorts (learned the hard way) and get full face if you can.
I disagree on the lightning, you have to keep in mind that your not the only driver on the road and can blind other people with your lights.
Dualtron and Weped are the first I expect to get specific laws just because they look exactly like what isn't allowed on cars due to distraction etc.
Decent lights are important. If you're going to buy after market lights just make sure you aim them down and not to dazzle other toad users; otherwise you may blind them and they could crash into you
Just a quick question... How'd you get your electric bike inside? Do you live in a house or in a apartment?
I have an apartment with elevator
@@mr_wrongway Elevator machine broke
Ale żeś nazbierał gadżetów 😎
No 😁
What is the brand name of your colorful helmet?
Heh będę pierwszym spostrzegawczym widzem i zapytam. Czy mnie oczy nie mylą i w przebitkach tu widzę Sur Ron LB X w wersji road legal ???
Pozdro.
Bardzo dobrze :) Sur Ron Light Bee L1e ;)
Maciej Burchardt że Sur Ron będzie na testy to już wiadomo trochę czasu 😉
@@mr_wrongway Ha ! No to miałem nosa :)
Teraz czekam na pełną recenzję :)
@@TechnoArtilleryWSR No to pięknie :)
@@maciejburchardt7927 też się cieszę 😛
... I should have worn a helmet lol. I totally ate it the other day on my scooter 😬. Flew right over the bars and scrapped my face. 🥺
Easy to clean. You poop in it, so that's a big plus.
I just fucked up my chin and my teeth only going 15 mph, but I hit some mud and the scooter slid out the side of me. Please fellow watchers, get a full face helmet.
Kiedy kugoo m4 ? ;)
Jeszcze nie wiem :/
0:40 What?! You have motorcycle in your bedroom!
It's a bike
I want to get a full face,but I have a strong feeling if I’m wearing a full face on my e scooter there’s a bigger chance I’ll e stopped by a cop... if I wear a regular one the cops won’t know that my scooter can go up to 60 mph lol
Yeah totally get it, getting stopped by a cop is scary but smearing a trail of your teeth across the asphalt is nbd
17:38 hehehehe
I'm #1k on the like button. What did I win?
I’m afraid of riding a e scooter with no helmet. I am protecting myself plus it’s the law
ba ba ba ja chcę po Polsku i kropka .
Jak można tego nie rozumieć ? xd
@@toyo6966 tak czy inaczej, szkoda, że nie ma już w zasadzie materiałów po polsku.

I'll just drive my car, thanks
Scooters are alot of fun though.
