    My wife got me one last Christmas and I really enjoy it. It is true that your feet will hurt after the first few times. I too was tense when I first tried it and my legs and feet were sore afterwards. But after awhile they get used to it. And YES, you do get a work out! I love it and enjoy going around our neighborhood while "walking" the dogs. It is great fun and I highly recommend getting one.

  • @TheLillianYoung
    @TheLillianYoung Před 5 lety

    I used to own a real Segway (i2) and the Ninebot 'Segway' MiniPro. I sold the big one reluctantly after many years, and sold this one in favor of an electric unicycle. However, there are advantages that I miss. I just wish there was a more robust one that could travel faster (for the price - too much competition in this market) and go over more terrain so that I could use it for real commuting. The large 'real' Segways had off road models.

    Hey Ed.
    Found this video while looking for answers to the Segway. My first comment is that my family thought I made the video, our resemblance is uncanny, even in some facial expressions. Ok enough with that weirdness. Regarding the Segway.
    - have you figured out if the steering rod can be extended. I see the hex bolts, but was wondering if you attempted it.
    - when the app as remote. It works as expected but strangely it refuses to go on carpet. We have wood floors and 1 carpeted living room, and it wouldn't cross that threshold. So wondering if there is any AI that tells it not to. Any idea? Even if I push it in the the carpet, it wouldn't move.

    • @EdRickerVlogs
      @EdRickerVlogs  Před 5 lety

      Good idea! Yes it's very quiet. There's a slight hum at full speed or when accelerating fast, but besides that it's just the slight road noise of a tire similar to a bike tire.

    • @EdRickerVlogs
      @EdRickerVlogs  Před 8 měsíci

      Range really depends on terrain, elevation change, weight of the person, weather temperature, etc. The 13.7 mile range is based off flat pavement with a 154lb. person at 77 degrees F. I'm about 230lb. and regularly take this in more hilly conditions, so I don't see anywhere near 13.7 miles. 3 miles does seem short for sure though.
