To unlock the speed limiter on the widewheeel you press the break, the acceleration and the button together for 3 seconds. it may be a bit hard until you make it just the red light is on there is no limit" and no "kick and go" to start the scooter movement.
Pmpbreeze Ogah How fast will it go when the speed limiter is unlocked?
The WideWheel is a fine machine it will monster any hill in my area. It’s acceleration is amazing the top speed is 25mph (it doesn’t slow down on hills like my other scooter) it’s very stable I feel comfortable to check over the shoulder or ride drains (with out the fear of some other scooters) the suspension was quite stiff when I first got it but it’s softened up with use and is perfectly balanced..
The range is incredible I have done 20miles flat out on power mode, I’m 13 1/4 stone and live in a very hilly area... I’m sure in eco mode and kept on the flat the claimed some have made of 30 miles is possible.... It’s fast enough in traffic not to annoy car drivers like the slower models do (only been hooted once) the issue with the lack of dash is a non issue in my opinion, I have no interest in knowing how fast or far (if you do you can use a phone app) the simplicity of the design is brilliant the battery status is something you need to know if the range is limited this has not been a problem it’s gone anywhere I need to I even took it ten miles up an old railway walk the tracks are gone but it coped with the dirt track easily... only negative really is the 0 to 25 mph in a Nano Second can wear out the shoulders muscles.. I understand the 2019 models throttle acceleration is much smoother... huge shout out to Peter # Fluid Free Rides customer service as it should be
and what about the version of 500w? is it ok?
ISIDRO MENDIONDO I’ve ridden mine home on one motor and it was pretty average the whole point of the twin motor is its ability to keep up in traffic and climb any hill it’s worth the extra 100 bucks
A thousand thanks! Is the handlebar height adjustable? im 6.5
ISIDRO MENDIONDO no it’s fixed at 43 inches (I think) which is the exact height I had my ecoreco adjusted to so for me it’s spot on!
Thinking about you earlier comment about the single motor version the 1000watt version is ridiculously fast away from a standstill almost aggressive, I have wondered if a single motor one would be a little gentler and better to cruise on..!
Where I live I’m at the top of the biggest hill in my city and I’m disabled so I need the hill climbing torque.
Btw if you have a twin motor version it’s possible and very simple to replace the front motor with a wheel (the motor simple unplugs externally)
The Xiaomi scooters do have regen braking. Works pretty well also.
and I've seen some other ones that have them.
So do the ninebots.
I guess he doesn't realize he doesn't have a wind problem
hahaha wanted to say, no wind whatsoever! :D
Wide wheels will be standard in near future,definitely on my list
Look into the Booster V scooter. Advertised at 25 mph at only 25 pounds with regen braking. Folds smaller and should fit in your Tesla's front trunk.
I like that they finally use real power on scooters , dual 500 w motors . I hated that all the electric scooters were only 250 pathetic watts
Its interesting your cable is quite different to almost every variant of cable I've seen ... I wonder why
Have it, its great!! 👍😊🛴
@General Shepherd Clone hey, yes very great up to now!! No, it will not go out, i never had this problem...
As many have commented, regen braking is fairly common in scooters. I have the Zoom Stryder. Has regen as well.
Regen brakes on scooters are not great. The moment you let go of the throttle it slows down and you can't Cruise.
JoeyBallzMcBigMe That’s incorrect. Regen does not start braking before you press the brake handle. That’s how it’s implemented in several scooters including the Zoom Stryder that I have. It’s great.
@@TurreTuntematon The zero 10x does that with the brake regen option on. How is the zoom stryder? Performance wise?
JoeyBallzMcBigMe Zoom Stryder is not as powerful as the Zero for sure. It’s however probably the most powerful in relation to its size/weight. I use it for commuting and it’s great in trains and buses as it folds to a very small size and is pretty light. Goes 30km/h, range is about 25km and the front wheel is strong enough uphill (I’m 85kg). The motor is 600 watts. Charging time is only 2-3 hours, which is great.
but regen also generates heat in the stator coils, so you have heat happening under power then heat happening under braking ... recipie for bun out if you ask me. Personally I'd rather just have another disc and not fluff with regen - its not like its going to return any significant charge (unless you ride down a mountain range)
Yes it dos have regenerative costing down hill charging but i cant tell you how to do it. You will figure it out in time, if you pay attention to the power display on the 2019 model. it's so simple.
Easy to turn the governor off and it does come with it in the manual.
How do u do it?
mchristopher41 pull in the break lever, hold throttle all the way down and hold the menu button on the handle bars for about 2 seconds. You may need to repeat this method a few times to get the single blinking red light. Then tap and hold for a second to unlock the scooter.

When you say the speed is "nuts", how many mph would that be?......kph will suffice, if you so desire. And is that an increase in acceleration off the line, an increased top end velocity or both?.......just curious.
Good video! I was waiting for this :D
1:04 Typical Canadian. Even apologizing for the wind...
lmao
Looks fun!
Hi. Did you figure out how to turn off the governor?
Im stuck between this in dual motor, or the Etwow monster, or the zero 9
single motor is same top speed just does not go as far, from what i have read
Me too zero 9 or widewheel 2020 version
Great and informative review! Could you tell me what kind of material did you use to wrap the wires? Where can I buy it, Amazon, Ebay? Thanks
curious about this as well
The boosted rev is probably the e scooter out.
Did you find a way to unlock the hidden features
What's it like on wet roads? Also cornering at speed?
Charles Abbott horrible on wet roads
Hey man, nice video! Not sure if you’ve tested the range but how would you say it compares to the claimed 20-30 miles from the spec sheet? Does the power and torque fall off a lot near the end battery life?
Billy Lee I’ve got the13.2amp hour twin motor widewheel on my other scooter Ecoreco claim 20 miles range but I found 10 was more realistic and I ride to avoid hills as they suck power and range! With the wide wheel in eco mode riding on the flat I’m sure 30 miles is possible I can tell you it will pull 20 miles no trouble I’m 13 stone and ride every where flat out and my area ids full of hills I don’t worry about range or power anymore as it will go where i need and deal with any hill easily.... the suspension soften up with use
Does anybody know if it’s okay for me to charge my wide wheel overnight? like can it overcharge or does it automatically stop charging when fully charged? (PLEASE HELP)
Once the charging light turns green its charged & shuts off , it won't overcharge although the manual states not to leave it on charge for over 10 hours . How you getting on with yours ?
What cables are those. What they called.
Sorry mate, but for the price it's at, I much rather go with the Zero 9 scooter simply for the difference in design and some features!! The Zero 9 strikes me as a much better looking scooter plus more bang for the buck it seems!! Just my opinion!
zero 9 600 watt wide-wheel dual 500 watt equals 1000 watt
Top speed and top autonomy??
How did you go about changing the color of the electric cabling from black to red?
It's Canadian.
Hope you get to review the boosted board scooter coming out. Thanks for the video!
Boosted board scooter?? Where did you hear that from?
WorldDweller boosted Rev, coming out soon
I noticed you stated that it is not intended for off-road. I was wondering how you think it would handle loose gravel. I will primarily use my scooter on greenways and rail-trails and some of them do have a fair amount of gravel.
I can say its quite touchy on gravel. If you have much experience with dirt bikes you'll be stunned firstly at how much steering torque reaction there is when you're not straight AND remember how small those wheels are compared to any rocks. I hit a small rock doing a turn and that was enough to have the front motor loose grip and when that gives way it slides out fast from under you ... I'd say this is a problem with all front drive scooters and I'd double down on its not for off road because those wide wheels float on the gravel (not bite down and through it)
the polite thing to do is quote metric and imperial
@@teslaownersonline5805 the metric system failed two mars rover landing missions
Is it water proof?
No
Who cares if it fits a tesla
I thought the xiaomi m365 had regen?
They do.
It is not good on gravel
Rubbish build quality. Don't buy it. The foldable arms sometimes collapse while driving it. Dangerous. The brakes malfunctioned after 3 months. The gas malfunctioned after 4 months. All this with not much using it. + When it rains the whole back of my legs are wet and sandy..
It doesn't have enough power to start from standstill. Bummer.
@@teslaownersonline5805 Yeah, it's a safety feature
It does have enough power. it's an option that you set when pressing brake, throttle and start button
