thanks for the review, that does it then this will be my first wheel.
Best check out the thread on electric unicycle forum on the numerous build issues which have not been mentioned in this review. It’s your money, of course, to do with what you think best. As a potential buyer, it changed my mind completely, just sayin’. Happy trails!
@@freeforester1717 these things tend to happen with first year releases of wheels. All these suspension wheels are in competition to be the best, yet they're all infants in the EUC world. And we are all beta testers.
Thanks for the review. Looking forward on a range test
Phenomenal - thank you for such an excellent review.
Cheers
Thank you!
Thanks for explaining your opinions on the T4 vs other wheels. Subbed!
Thank you! Stay tuned for range test tomorrow
Cool video! Good review!
Thank you!
Rewatched, still great. Trying to decide between v11 and t4.
Cheers
Very informative vlogs buddy just subscribed 👍
Thank you! I do my best haha waterproof t4 video coming Tuesday and Mten4 video coming Monday so stay tuned!
Thank you for your T4 reviews. I am now saving up for this wheel. Master Pro/Sherman-S will be next year. I want the T4 and the Mten4 NOW! LOL
I just got my mten4's today and they are SMALLLL!!! lol will be doing a overview video and range test soon =)
@@EUCWayOfLife OMG! That's awesome. Can't wait to watch. :P
Crazy good review. Thinking about upgrading from my onewheel to an euc. Have the opportunity to buy an S18. Shouldn’t need to upgrade for quite a while I wouldn’t think.
Thank you! I put a lot into these videos haha
If you were local to me I offer free lessons! Onewheelers are huge in my area and I always off them guys to ride my wheels hahaha
I have hero, s18, t4, s22's and mten4's for testing =)
S18 is a great wheel tho some outgrow it fast...
Great impressions Casey, thanks much for this video. Did you do a range test on it?
Hi Mike! Thank you! I did yesterday and I will have the video up tomorrow 👊
Amazing video with great descriptions compared to other wheels. I hope someone in my area gets a T4 so I can try it out. I agree, the Hero feels like it is heavier than the Master. I find that interesting you say you put your feet forward on the pedals on the Hero. I feel like it is more balanced with feet anchored slightly to the back. Good to hear that the T4 feels centered. I dont like the seated experience on the Hero, something about it just doesnt mesh well with me. Can you give us a desciption of how the seated experience feels on the T4? How does the wheel feel riding it on the street ~25-30mph compared to the Hero? More stable or sketchy? Can you give a rough estimate on the range of the T4 compared to the Hero? Thanks man, good videos as always!
Thank you! Seated riding will be this week, I did do a range test yesterday that video will be up tomorrow and the speed on that test was about 20-22mph. For stability the biggest thing on this wheel at speed would be 1 what type of tire YOU are uses to and 2 how much psi you run in it. I upped the psi to about 40 for my range test and I got used to it within a couple miles but at first it was very zippy like when your car tire has too much psi and wants to grab everything on the road.
Thanks for your review. I'm trying to decide on the t4 or the s22 the only wheel I have ever had is the s18. I have never tried any other wheel. And it was stolen out of my garage. So I need to get one. I'm leaning towards the t4
Personally for the price point I would get the T4 just because out of the box suspension works better and it's a lighter easier wheel. If you are looking for speed and range tho the s22 may have it beat by a small margin
@@EUCWayOfLife how about for jumps?
S22 suspension or T4?
Thanks! What is the highest speed it can cruise on the street while having reasonable stability?
I have not tested this yet but rider weight, comfort with the wheel and experience would play a big role in this.
Great Video once again Casey, thanks. Have you worked out what knobby tires will fit it yet? How much clearance is there between the standard tire and the closest solid part, I’m guessing that is the guard mount. I have a T4 arriving in a couple of weeks and want a knobby on it.
I'm going to do all my testing with it stock for now so until that is done no fitting of the knobby will be done yet, however this tire does perform really well offroad (dry conditions so far) includes grass and loose gravel.
But once I'm done testing it as stock I'll slap the 241 shinko on it
@@EUCWayOfLife are you sure Shinko make a tire to fit a 12inch rim? I have found a Michelin Starcross 5 80/100-12. 41M that looks like it might fit, it’s a very open knobby with aggressive knobs, not sure how much clearance there is on the T4 for other tires?
@@scottmorris7320 if you watch my 1st or 2nd video you will see the clearance for tires and I do mention it is VERY little clearance. And yes I have a shinko 241 at home that is the size and fitment for this wheel. But until I try it, I won't be linking it in the videos.
How is the mechanical quality after some time? Will they made new batch?
My 2013 Airwheel x3 with low psi could do this trail no problem. Though at a lower speed.
Airwheel x3 power 😂 ive used the same as beginner wheel 🤣
I ride mostly on really steep technical trails with some jumps or doing “urban freestyle” kind of fast circles and spin tricks on pavement.
Still wondering if this wheel might fit my riding style pretty well for the money now, what do y’all think?
I've seen some posts in the Begode FB group about bricking the wheel on firmware updates. Have you heard if Begode going to fix that?
Nope but I also haven't updated my T4. Everything works fine and I'd personally rather not risk it.
My should be in tomorrow. This video pumps me up. Thanks for making it and I'm looking forward for the range test. I'm very new to EUC's with about 10hours of riding time on my friends KS 18L. I'm about 170lbs. What is your suggestions on how much psi I should have the shocks to and also tire psi. Much appreciated!
Thank you! I am glad my videos help and pump up others =) range test will be tomorrow! Stay tuned!
For your weight start at your weight for psi so 170psi or -/+10 psi.
How are you getting it before release date? Which dealer did you order from?
@@pkhi808 🤷
@@pkhi808 AlienRides had them in stock this weekend. I saw it and didn't hesitate. They are selling out fast from last I heard.
@@pkhi808 Just checked they are still in stock.
Super stoked after seeing this video. Had a cutout on the Eagle, there was a cut wire which was unfortunate so I wouldn’t say it was Ks’s fault but returned that wheel and ordered the T4 for trails like this so I can’t wait to take her out and put her to it’s paces!
Thanks for the info!
I hope you love yours as much as I do! Definitely better for trails than stock s22 imo!
Nice video, but I'm surprised at how hard you are on the RS 19 HT since a lot of riders consider it the gold standard (at least in the non-suspension category) for off-road hilly terrain.
I have one from the latest batch with P42 Molicel packs and knobbys and it eats anything and everything you can throw at it. It grunts a little when starting from a stop but every wheel I've ever ridden seems to do that to some degree.
Anyhoo, glad you like the T4, seems like a pretty decent wheel. If Begode would make it (and all the wheels in the Master series) with proper front and rear drop protection, I'd be much closer to being a buyer.
Thank you! I had 2 RST's so I had the ability to test 2 thinking one may be defective but for what I do here in Washington on one ofu trails I ended up walking the wheel more than riding it and was super pissed. It's not that it can't eat anything it's that it requires you to do a certain speed to really get that power OR have good pads and REALLY lean into that leverage point to extract it. This wheel you do not have to do that...
I don't do crazy single tracks stuff but I'm not that concerned about the batteries in an impact if you think about wheels like an RS it's a battery pack behind a THIN plastic shell which imo is really no different than this wheel so I don't understand why everyone complains 🤷
@@EUCWayOfLife That's a bummer about your RS experience, I find here in Atlanta on relatively smooth asphalt, the torque is right where I want it, but then again I'm not negotiating small boulders and huge tree roots on a normal basis.
I can definitely see how a tourquey 16" wheel would fit your bill very nicely. My 16x is pretty darn spunky on trails, and pretty tanky to boot, but alas no suspension.
I hear your point on bumpers, just seems like at the price they would at least make an effort to beef up the exterior of the wheel for better protection. Anyhoo.. Have a great day : )
@@CrossroadWater agreed on the last part. Kingsong did such a great job with all the options, accessories, grab points, and overall build of the s22 and the new Begode wheels your basically getting batteries, a motor pedals and board lol
What kinda erks me is the mten4 comes with a kickstand, master and master pro, ex20s, etc all have kickstands and the T4 doesn't... Like why?! But I make one so not a big deal but not everyone has the abilites or a printer(s).
For street riding I would agree I road the rs19HT a lot on paved trails and although it was easy cruising 30 it was not the most comfortable stance with it's angled pedals and wide low body. The T4 I believe is wider but because of where the width is it makes it more comfortable for longer rides.
What are your thoughts on the waterproofness if this wheel? Would it be able to take riding on wet surfaces? Like, not directly under pouring rain but rather riding right after it.
Also, why do you ride with the handle sticking out?
Thanks in advance!
I also interested in waterproofness. I'd like to use it for daily commuting, so in low rain too :)
Spray some corrosion-X type of spray on the bearings and ride in the pouring rain no problem
Thank you for the review. But it looks like there is no suspension on it . Or it’s too hard for your weight.
I mentioned that in the video. That it is NOT fine tuned yet for my weight and a trail like this I'd reduce it to 170-180 psi
How does it feels seated riding? Mine arrives next week, looking forward.
Very comfortable better balanced and leans you forward I explained in my first video..but I have not done enough testing to really compare
Awesome!! Thank
Which has more torque? The T4 or S18? How big of a difference?
From my experience the s18 is a little grunty but doesn't have any issues the T4 is a little smoother I believe the biggest difference really is going to be the range between the wheels. The T4 although being a 16" wheel should feel substantially more torque I wouldn't say it's a staggering or noticeable different for dding
Would you recommend the Master over this?
Personal preference and needs I had a master and am not mad I sold it
Will your master pedals work on T4
I no longer have my master so I can't test but the pedal hangers look the same. I will be getting freemotion pedals and will test and I will check to see if my hero pedals fit
Nice video. I have to say I see 0 movement in the suspension, it looks like you're sitting at the bottom of the system range. Maybe adjust to 300? Without movement in the suspension you're basically riding a fancy higher speed 16x.
All of these reviews comparing how all these wheels made you "feel" are just matters of opinion. The reviews are only made to help people make a better decision on buying a wheel. I assure most of you looking for a wheel. If you buy a wheel and take it easy for 1000 miles, you'll fall in love. They all require a certain amount of time to appreciate their abilities. I think most of the time, a wheel "feels" off because your muscles aren't used to that particular wheel. Once you've conditioned your body to your wheel and don't jump on another one, you'll start to notice you are becoming one with your wheel. Just trying to spread some gospel. Most wheels are amazing, I'd just use range and weight specs to pick a wheel then just learn how to ride it like a boss.
hows the water sealing off the box?
Pretty well sealed probably best I've seen. I'll post a video of it this week hopefully
@@EUCWayOfLife absolute legend, these videos are godsend bro :D
@@ftsforever kind words from a kind person! Hopefully they are helpful to you hahaha I appreciate the feedback 🥰 stay tuned! I'll probably do a double video of the waterproofing on the mten4 with the T4 next
@@EUCWayOfLife time to ring that bell then, i cant miss it :D
@@EUCWayOfLife hows the t4 doing after some more time? still good?
200psi and 12 clicks on rebound is really not a good setup.
try pumping it up to 375psi and do 3 clicks off the rebound. you will love it
It's not the master and I am not doing jumps. The T4 does not require as much psi as the master. At 220 psi there is no sag even with rebound at full slow.
