- I take the A2 on a range test and drain the battery to zero.

This makes the Sunday ride fun that much funnier. Dawn zipping by with it beeping in both directions while you looked sad. Makes sense now.
She’s a speed Demon/Angel whatever u prefer 😂
Thx Marty ur honest opinion is what the ppl need in this euc world 🌍😉👍 slow and steady = ride another day 😽✌️
Marty’s opinion can never be bought. Legend has it he owns a thousand wheels in his basement 😉👍 and he can talk shit about all of em 😂😂
I was trying to tell this other CZcamsr that the smaller wheels are not easier to ride. It is a totally different wheel feel. You cannot just ride larger wheels and expect to just start riding these things like pros. Good review. Once you get used to them they are way more fun than the larger wheels.
Very useful and entertaining and much appreciated, all your content on the A2 makes the wait for mine a little easier!!
Thank you
Surprisingly I’ve never had speed wobbles on my Mten4. I slapped grizzla compact flow pads on my wheel. It made the biggest difference with control.

What is the technique for “ripping loud” ?
This the test I've been waiting... And hopefully next time you can do also a hill stress test ..
I suggest hanging the outer 1/3 of your feet off the outside edge of the pedals to triangulate your stance more. Going from a wide wheel to my narrow 18XL I found this foot position made the difference.
I didn't have to change my foot position. Just had to put more time on the wheel. Thanks.
Marty got a case of the wobbles, You know they have a topical cream for that…😂

This reminds me of doing flatland dirt trails on my KS14D. Exhausting! Only went 20kph as well. Battery outlasted my legs every time.
Nice. Almost as fun as watching paint dry 😆. Ya I easily get 25-30miles on the Mten4 so I assume similar on this A2
I appreciate that heartfelt comment LOL
@@ElectricUnicycles I watched your A2 range vid in sincere appreciation & affection for your contribution & work 🥰. Much as it wasn't the most fun vid to watch, its gotta be 2x worse filming this at 15-20mph. That said, I do get how going slow can be somewhat fun on the right wheel 😅
50 km its not bad! I like this wheel!
Waiting for the range test on the Commander Mini. Looking forward to it Marty.
Im a bit disappointed in my range. I get 20km before it starts to beep. After 22km and letting the battery rest for a few minutes I have 20%. I think it would be a much better wheel with less saggy cells like the 50s. Im 110kg in gear.
Try a staggered stance?
I believe you are correct that it is the width of the wheel that causes the wobbles, when you are used to much wider wheels. The triangle that your legs, pedals and hip is making, is much narrower on these wheels where the batteries are on top. If I have ridden my Abrams for a while and then ride my KS-14S, I can feel the same thing happen.
Still, I think the A2 must be the ideal beginner wheel.
Does it have dynamic tiltback based on PWM? I guess not, since no Begode wheels have that with original firmware, but maybe someone made custom firmware for it?
Hi My friend , one question: Is the route where the wobble occurs downhill?
No. It's speed related, but yes, I know that wobbles can be more prevalent on downhills. A week later it's not much of an issue now.
That's more range than expected, even though it was snail's pace. Now do a seated range test for our entertainment 😅
I noticed the battery % drops from 100% to 86% in the first mile. Are you getting similar stats? Im afraid I already have a few dead cells.
You can view the voltage/mile on my range test here: euc.world/tour/622703402796136 When evaluating battery performance and there is any doubt, use voltages instead of percentages because your app might be reporting an incorrect battery percentage (particularly true if you are using Darknessbot).
Much appreciated.@@ElectricUnicycles
👍🔥 how many kilometers?
Could you tell me what its autonomy is? my weight is 80 kg?
Around 20-25 miles
Great video, how does this wheel ride compared to MCM5v2?
Really, totally different beasts :-)
I'm guessing it has to do with where the wheel hits you on your shins. Can be a confidence issue as wheel. I ride the mten4 20+mph all day. Wobbles left when my confidence in the wheel was gained!
It's not confidence :-) Just not used to riding the smaller wheels at speed.
@@ElectricUnicycles I'm not saying you don't have confidence as a rider, it's confidence in the machine itself! Something that little shouldn't have that much power, so it takes your brain a little bit to gain confidence in the machine itself. I've had issues before on new wheels where it takes a bit of "getting used to" which is the same as gaining confidence in the machine. I don't doubt my abilities, just as I'm sure you don't doubt yours, it's just understanding what the machine is actually capable of and how far you can push those capabilities!!! And I believe that's where a lot of the fun lies, is in pushing ourselves as well as the the machine itself. So I'm not saying your not confident in yourself it's confidence in the euc 🤟💀
@@dankehrig3419 No worries. I totally understood you. I've owned 36 EUC's and never worried about riding a single one (maybe the first 😆)
At 19:13, a winged insect crashes the mic and makes a harrowing escape after having kissed Marty.

Thanks Marty for the Ukraine 🇺🇦 🤘🤠
