It’s nice to have more power to have it when you need it. I bet you’d feel amazing on a KingSong 16X or 18XL

@@EUC_Crush - my car has a high hatch back with a 1 foot wide "deck". To avoid back issues, I brace one hand on the deck, and use the other arm to lift my EUC to load or unload it from the hatch back area. I work out with free weights, and routinely lift 45 lb plates with one arm, but I'm not sure how much of a strain 55 lbs would be. Although 16X and 18XL have more acceleration (torque) and speed than V8F, the V8F manages to out-brake them. The private streets near my home are cambered towards the center, so the thinner tire on the 18XL would have less issue with tram tracking on those streets. I also ride a 2001 Suzuki Hayabusa motorcycle, so my riding hobby time is split between the bike and the EUC. An S18 would be smoother, but I weigh 190 lbs, and the max weight rating was reduced to 200lbs, and the P42A battery pack isn't going to make much difference since the fuses remain at 20A per pack, for the same total of 60A. You just get a bit less voltage sag, which isn't an issue until you get down to 50% charge or less.

lol u dont need gear that slow

@@rcgldr hey at least ur more interesting than most old people. but way too much gear for 15mph

@@Blox117 - I wear hitop hiking boots, since wearing them alleviates calf pain I was getting with soft sole shoes. My max speed is 18 mph GPS (Inmotion app shows 7% higher), as at 187 lbs, I don't trust the V8F to be able to recover from a bump or dip that slows it down and having to catch back up. If riding slower, it's just the helmet and wrist guards.

Thank you. ☺️

Thanks for watching

Taking a spill is never fun. It’s important to take time to recover. When I was at the hospital the dr told me the most dangerous thing about having a concussion is having a repeated fall, and we are at a greater risk of falling after a fall. 🤔

Interesting! Which do you prefer ??

It’s hard to find the right helmet. It’s a balance of weight, accessible vision, venting and cost. I’m still in search of the perfect helmet. It couldn’t hurt to have more then one for as much as I ride. 🚀

@@EUC_Crush which would would you recommend?

@@Miguel-ve1lh I have been through a few DH bike helmets but they all aren’t enough protection. I just ordered a dirt bike helmet that’s dot approved. I’ll let you know how it goes once I make a decision

The bohn summer shorts with the upgraded armor are the thinnest padded shorts I’ve found. They’re still not comfortable but better then all the other padded shorts.

Aww ☺️ thanks. The first couple of days were rough and I went through a wave of emotions. It sucks to be taken out by some punk kid drunk cyclist, I should’ve been doing something epic 😜🤙🚀

@@EUC_Crush part of the reason I hate mass gatherings and ride outs. To many unpredictable personalities and novice riders, people showing out and riding above their skill sets. Anyway you are all good that's all that matters now. Thank goodness for the gear.

@@electric_dreamin3518 gear makes me a much more confident rider. I feel you on the group rides. My core winter crew has well over 10,000 miles each and now we have new people with 30 miles on a pint snow up at the Friday night ride. The skill levels continues to divide as does the pev abilities.

Unfortunately falling is part of riding. Every fall makes us better rider, it takes time to recover after a hard fall. Hope you heal quickly ❤️‍🩹

That’s the most ridiculous thing I’ve ever heard. Put some miles on and you’ll understand. I’ve seen SO many accidents and gear saves everyone from serious injuries. Keep on riding.

Sometimes it takes a hard crash to figure it out. Had a close friend break his arm last night and another friend break his arm 2 weeks prior. Sucks to learn the hard way, falling is part of this hobby.

Thanks for watching

That is my point, it’s hard to balance the heaviness/closed sound of the moto helmet with the lighter protection, more open face/noise, downhill esk8 helmets. I would like more transparency in the safety ratings.

Have you looked into the poc arctic spin helmets?

@@rainz2133 yes I have

@@rainz2133 I did look at the POC helmets. I heard some good things about them but couldn’t find any to try on locally and ran out of time to try them on. I would still like to have the opportunity to try one on.

@@EUC_Crush moto cross are more like mtb but higher protection..street helmets are the big round ones..you want moto x

Oh lala! I have not seen the Knox gloves. I love their upper body piece, I’ll have to check those gloves out. Can you give me any idea on the sizing? I normally wear a small with the gloves because most gear is for men.

I wasn't unscathed. I had to go to the ER to get a CT scan. It was traumatic and painful, no broken bones.

Hell yeah 🎉 Clark bumpers for the win 🥇 I appreciate their generosity in the community

Yes, that is my understanding as well.

@@tylerstites3364 Keep in mind she was going a relatively slow speed. For that helmet, its probably fine. You will always be playing the percentages on bike helmets versus actual full coverage helmets. As for the head talk unit, I do believe in a slow crash that it could do more damage than in a high speed impact in catching and twisting you head.

I Feel like I’m doing pretty well with around 11,000 miles under my belt. The serious falls shake you up. Ride safe 🚀🤙

That’s is the razor cart! That thing is intense and dangerous 😂 Good point in the pro waist belt for the boblebee, that is a good option.

The compression sleeves makes a HUGE difference with knee pain. The sleeves take the sting away from bumps in the road. A no brainer if you have tender knees.

@@EUC_Crush ill give it a shot, thanks! One small question : would you recommend the outside of the compression sleeves to be as grippy as possible or something smooth that doesnt grip at the pants 🤔?

@@mattca353 I don’t see any reason for them to be grippy. I just got a pair off of Amazon. Searched for “compression sleeve”

obviously bro..get one of those ece rated moto helmets

I contacted them, they offered me a 30% off coupon code 🤷‍♀️

@@EUC_Crush I guess that's better than nothing. I knew they promised something. It's likely that I remembered wrong. 🙂 I've been wearing my scorpion EXO 420 helmet here lately while out cruising.

@@EUC_Crush yep. I remembered wrong. Sorry about that. It's 30% off for the Super DH also.

The TSG was way to circular for my head. My head shape is oval not round. That’s why I choose the predator over the tsg. I actually bought and sold a tsg because of the awkward sizing on my head

A cheaper alternative is the Steelbird Air SBA2. Kelly Chameleon wears them.

We like to go fast in portland 🚀 seriously though, once you get a bigger diameter wheel, 40mph feels like 30mph

@@EUC_Crush My speed limit is 30 kph (kilometers, not miles)... and 40 mph is 65 kph, a crazy speed!!! My bike is a 600 cc, it can reach over 210 kph, they are comparable to 65 kph of an EUC! Honestly it is an exaggerated speed, I can touch it occasionally, but normally I would travel much more cautiously.

Not for sale, you can use mt referral links to buy one new from any of the vendors.

I gear up every time and get made fun of frequently for it. Happy I did this time.

@@EUC_Crush Yep always gear up, who cares what others think or say. I always wear clothing over my pads, many people just think I'm jacked. Most don't realize I'm wearing body armor and knee pads, unless I say somehting.

@@floodedcarb7028 I was thinking about getting a motorcycle pant with armor built in. Another trip to cycle gear. 🚀

@@EUC_Crush I tried them but I found them to warm and they restricted my movement on the board when carving. Could he fine for an EUC. That's one thing I should get is hip protection. I've never hit my hips but better safe than sorry. If you ever get upper body armor like I have. Dirt bike jerseys are great to wear over them, they let a lot of airflow through.

@everyday tenor I am wearing a motorcycle jacket, definitely time to upgrades the padded shorts and knee guards but I am geared up basically in all the things you cover in your statement to me. My will is up to date. I am a responsible rider and ride with a very strong crew. I have over 10,000 miles. I ordered my new helmet which is DOT and a snell approved. I appreciate the advice, I think I’m doing Better than most as far as safety gear goes but there is always that next piece to upgrade as our skills and wheels progress.

I do love the max, I also am having financial difficulties 😕

I did get a Scorpion EXO-R1 CARBON AIR for fall and winter and replaced my bell 3R with the bell DH for summer/trail riding.

Can it dude this is the wrong audience. People here know about safety. Go find a skatepark or something. Just wear a helmet before you start preaching to them.

And you're wrong like a newbie would be. Should always wear something, but dress for the occasion. You know your ride styles. You dont need to be dressed like robocop to ride 10mph down a bike lane next to grandma and her 2 dogs.

lol you crazy

@@EUC_Crush haha don't take it so hard, I have a daughter your age
