Enjoy my thoughts on the one purchase that changed my EUC riding experience forever - PowerKnobz, the ultimate EUC upgrade. These unique pads have no traditional acceleration pad, instead they lock you down on top of your feet and behind your heels. For me, this is an awesome feeling and I can accelerate, carve, race, sit down, and ride off-road more confidently than with any other pads. If you’ve never given them a try, you need too! They might change your EUC riding experience just like they did mine ;)
I’ll be rocking the Veteran Patton with Voidcore v2 PowerKnobz, hulaj market Cyclope Pro light, and E-rides Patton Biggie pedals.
My riding gear includes:
Helmet: Scorpion EXO-AT960
Boots: Forma Terra Evo Low
Kneepads: Leatt Dual Axis
Wrist gaurds: Demon United Flexmeter D3O

Hey! Thanks for the review my dude this means a lot! It's always very validating to hear such positive feedback! Last year when we started out there was a lot of skepticism around the mechanics of PKs but we've been winning people over one sale after the other. Once people try these and it clicks and they experience that level of freedom, power and safety it becomes very hard to go back to shin pads. Like you said there are still room for shin pads in certain scenario but PKs are simply more mechanically sound for proper athletic form. Btw you do have huge feet and boots haha. For flow riding/street and easy seated transitions, PKs are usually meant to sit lower closer to the toes than the shins but it looks like you maxed out the spacing of the one piece. Doesn't look like it hampered your enjoyment one bit though! Once again thank you so much for the love!
Thanks for designing an awesome product! I had a similar experience, when I first tried them and got used to the feel it made me wonder why pads havent always been this way? It just seems so more natural to be able to actually lean on the wheel and not be restricted by a top pad that really just limits mobility and gets in the way of seated riding. I like to think these are the pads with the highest skill ceiling of any I tried. I forgot to touch on a few important topics, first the OverKill brake pads, OMG theyre huge and so confidence insipring to have my whole calf in contact with the wheel. And the fact that you regularly release brand new pad concepts that nobody has seen before. even since I bought these theres been like 3 new pad design releases on the website. People are going to love your work!
I'm absolutely not a fast rider, but a rider of experience nonetheless, and I wouldn't ride with anything else than powerknobz pads.
I would almost use them while sleeping 😂
Hey, just wondering when will you get the Full Voidcore Prime V2 Powerknobz kit in back in stock. I like red btw lol. Or is there a V3 coming out? TIA
@@ConsilienceDVO We've updated the listing description with a date but don't expect it until May. We are also in the process of revamping the Powercores to make them easier to craft that's why we paused sales on them for the first time since we launched. They are made in house from scratch so it's very difficult and time consuming as it is so we needed to look into streamlining certain parts of it so we can craft them faster. Also, no other Voidcore model is in the pipeline so far everyone is very happy with the V2. Here's an exclusive scoop for you guys on here I'm tempted to make a fusion one piece with Voidcore in the front and Cohedron in the back =P We'll see how it pans out in testing.
@@Powerknobz THanks!!!
No. More. Banana. Lean.
I was the very first to try the PowerKnobz since I'm the owner's roommate and I'm elated to see the love they're getting all over the world. Thank you for the review ❤
Best of luck! I think it will be a successful year for PK 😊
I love the beefy, oversized full look of these rather than the typcial streamlined, thin build of typical pads. One thing that is extremely important is confidence and these definitely inspire that for me without having even tried them.
Great video thanks for breaking it down!!! Pads look awesome .. I like the flow and biopads too, they’re a little tight but I like it tight, I’m glad I never cut them now after hearing your story! Anyway these look heavy duty and sick
Great review!
Great vid love the idea of these pads, can't wait to get them on my next wheel 🔥
These look awesome !!!
Thanks brother!!🙏
I love my powerknobz.
On each wheel now
Leg liberty 🤟🤟
Great video.
Found you about a few weeks ago and you not bad.
Nice review on the powerknobz and I totally agree (I use a similar system made in Europe,since it’s closer to me).Freedom of movement and control of the wheel feels much nicer compared to typical powerpads. One thing I noticed on jumps,is that without upper pad my knee goes forward while midair,so the motor spins forward 🥶.But I want to figure it out without adding an upper pad. I also agree with what you said for off-roading without upper pads,it’s a challenge.
Keep on powerknobing 🤙
Yes I experienced the same thing, I have to put more effort into keeping the wheel flat because I got some beeps from spinning while jumping the other day
can you drop a link for the pads you're using? or the name of the seller/company?
@@reischmecktsearch "euc custom power pads" . Based in Germany,great guy
These pads look great
They look cool
Great video! I ordered a set based on your review. Cheers!
New sub btw.
Looking forward to seeing your review to hear your thoughts! Subbed right back so I’ll be tuned in 👍
@@PEVPOV I'm gonna install a set on the ET Max
Where is the link

Take full advantage of the motocross boots and do a calf raise to accelerate. I don't even lean into my kai pads anymore.
Is that the Voidcore Prime V2? Yours is the only video I can find on these pads. They need to get their name out there b/c those pads look sweet.
Yeah exactly the one piece voidcore Prime V2. And I agree, I think if they had more coverage there would be many more riders using these pads!
cool video i’ll have to order these pads for my patton, what version pk are you using
also the leatt knee pads are you using large size, i’m ordering soon knee pads but wasn’t sure if go with medium or large
i’m 5’8 175 lbs
yo.. i am here Deano !
getting a set for my falcon
Great video! Hopefully you can come join us for some intro/advanced dirt riding!
DC groundings for Sure
Nice let’s ride the gardens Tu/Th/Fr this week? I wanna try them
Might have to wait til next week when it’s sunny, it gets too muddy after the rain but I’m so down
I have Grizzla flow pads, what would the difference be if I were to remove just the shin part of the front pads? I would still have the toe pads for jumping, and I have the freedom of bending the knee forward like how the PK pads allow you to. Seems to me they're the same..
hmm.. these pads are getting incrementally larger how far out do they extend?
Id be concerned if there was a cutout, being this much locked in, could break the hip, myself I been riding for close to 5 years and only used those supplied by manufacturer, its not as comfortable but I step off the wheel during crashes super easy, also I dont ride wheels close to max speed.
and yeah stitchline up/down being good for equal exposure of both lenses also helps protect lenses if scraping the camera on the ground as its sideways and not front or back.
Now you need to try their new Cohedron too…you gonna love it 😉
These look crazy good
@@PEVPOV Yes! Less liberty if you want to seat on the wheel, but better for jumps than the classic Powerknobz!
hello this pads going to EXN?
I have been debating between the one piece Voidcore or the Fusion one piece for my ET Max would you recommend going for this version other then the others
@@SunsetEuc I haven’t tried the fusion but my suggestion is definitely the 1 piece for stability, Voidcore is the classic PK design which I love. Discount code PEVPOV btw :)
Do you need a upper pad in the front to acc faster? i see your upper leg is free
How do you like the eride biggie pedals compared to the wolverine?
As you can see I have huge feet, so the biggies are awesome for me. These are by far the biggest and longest pedals I've seen on the market. I'd put them on all my wheels if they were compatible
That sucks because I just ordered the Bio pads
Wow!! Do you have a link where I can buy one?

👍
Will the over size brake pads fit on a commander mini or should i get the stubbys?
Overkill*
I had them on my Patton so they would probably fit on the mini. The one piece front pads hung a little off the back of the Patton but it was fine for me
The boots seem like the absolute best too. Forma?
Forma Terra Evo Low- I just put out a mini review on the boots, check my channel :)
Well if you have the Grizzla flow you can just remove the top of the front pad just keep the foot lock and it will be similar...
These pads are almost twice as long as that grizzla foot lock piece, and they wrap over my entire foot. And also the patton comes with a toe lock system that's very similar but neither compare to the Powerknobz
I have the Lynx with the Grizzla kit with the larger toe lock, i will try it without the pads... Although i kinda use the top pads to relax my legs on it when i do long range ride
First, thanks for your review, very interesting and impressive! Curious to photos on your Patton. Is it necessary to remove front bumper to fit this powerknobz?
@@deadbluesky the Leaperkim toe clamp is fundamentally flawed it doesn't mimmick the mechanics of PKs at all because of the huge bit of hard plastic sticking out near the shin. The lean angle is completely off because of that.
@@JeskaRaini have the Grizzla toe lock as i have already mentioned in my previous comments which is way larger and smoother than the original.
Can you leave a link to get these?

@@PEVPOV Thanks
I have those same boots! How do you like yours?
Are they the forma terra evo low
They're great and give me more confidence - I'll make a video talking about them soon
@@pauldooley823yes
VCF IS THE way forward, unfortunately quite hard to get hold of, but hopefully that will change soon ..
Variable cam flex by Roger Chapman!!!
IDK I'm not a huge fan of the look or design. Far too big and bulky for my use case. I really like the minimalistic, out of the way look of the powerknobz vs the VCF pads
Chapman pads are literally the opposite of the future... Utterly obsolete.
It's coming dude..😂
@@Nautical33 ah yes like it's been coming for 2 years. Look 4 years ago it might have been construed as a thing but this boat has sailed.
Have you tried NorthPads?
No never tried those
Or do you have the stubby on yours
Moto boots ftw, never going back to shoes.
