I guess we can say, that we’re grateful for all the wounds you endured.
Otherwise, we wouldn’t know that the hypothetically-perfect street tire would wobble so much.
The side by side comparison was amazing. It really helped determine how each tire perform.
Your video concept, editting & video making skill is great indeed. You knew that you’ll need side by side comparison, thus your friend in the video. Thank you Kuji, thank you so much!
keep in mind it could be a bad batch of tires.. it happens lol
eh nyampe sini juga
Coming from 20+ years on motorcycles my first thought with that high speed wobble was wondering if the tire had been balanced. Reading the comments, I'm not surprised to see so many others wondering the same. The same goes for any tire really, low speeds you may not notice it at all, however higher speeds exponentially increase the fact that there is a weight displacement and thus you get that nice "death wobble" as I've always called it at higher speeds lol. Anyways, I'm not sure how I ended up at this video but it was a great watch! Get that tire balanced and give it another shot before you dismiss it first! =)
Congrats on your first Sherman review going viral!! You deserved it Kuji!!
@ROTC megaFAN evidence?
@ROTC megaFAN If only you could harness that MEGA propulsion coming out your arse...
So this is why kuji is gone. A youtubers curse, where they make a viral video, cannot replicate the success and give up.
How can I get this product? Who can help us? Brothers. I want one. I am in Turkey, Istanbul. How much does it cost? How can I get it?
The whole video I keep wondering in the back of my mind if the guys at Veteran are watching your video going “yup that’s why we chose the knobby tire in the first place”
definitely i do
Was thinking the same ...Kuji is great but they are engineers
Kuji wins the limbo contest! I can’t believe how low he got when he went under that street crossing arm when it was down. 😂 Watch the shadow figure on the ground in front of you when you are crashing in slow motion.
You're an absolute maniac on these wheels man, I love it. Watching your confidence as you speed through certain terrain and riding out wobbles blows my mind
Kuji love your work. Loving the tyre reviews too. Thank you
I’m sure you’ve healed up a bit by now already, but for the type of injury you sustained to your hands, I highly highly recommend hydrocolloid bandages. I had a similar wipe out a few years ago, and it’s the only thing that controlled the constant wound weeping and allowed it to heal properly, while also giving me back use of my hands.
That's what I'm using now. They are fucking awesome. No more bandages that get stuck into the wound
LOL your commitment to the video is so good!!! Still reviewing the wheel just after the crash!
Glad you came away from that crash in tact, man. As always, wonderful review.
That was a dangerous fall
Suspension wheel is probably a requirement at high speeds. Roads can have bumps in sneaky places.
I didn’t know about EUC, we where talking at my friend’s place when i saw another one of your test footage and now i want one of these really bad haha!! Your review’s are really professional and tested to the edge of what any one you test can reach and sometime’s beyond the limits by seeing you crash few times already so goooood job, if you need a snow and ice tester up north give me a call😂❤️🤟🏼
I just love how this video is filmed the bussling city and how informative it is but I never knew of these EUC till I found this channel i might just try to learn to ride one.
Congratulations Kuji, amazing video. 😎
Another great video by Kuji "Full Send" Rolls
Sick episode!! And that trail riding looks fun !! Be nice to see some design innovation to address pedal scraping in the next gen of these Ewheels…
Can't wait to see what you can do with an Abrams...
And Thank you for your input....got my Veteran in March and have been building up my Frankenstein ever since.
Great to see you pushing the wheel like this on mixed gradients. This was my main question.
WOW, what a video. The knobby tire although loud it seems to cause zero wobbles and so much grip (which was my experience). The street tire based on your video seems iffy. Very glad you're ok Kuji. Get well fast
Once again flawless review thanks, they should call you Kuji flat out Rolls ! Whatever wheel you ride, its maximum attack no matter what kind of terrain, Its full bass every time LOVE DAT SHIIIIIIIT 🔥🔥🔥🔥
That was one egg beater of a crash tho, maybe some more protection in future. Look after yourself man, we all appreciate your vids we don't want you to get busted up just for a review...... thx again.
Just an amazing video. Falls are unavoidable on a unicycle. The angle of attack you can take is really amazing compare to the first generation of the 2012/ 2015 units.
great vid...and as usual your camera work is Great!! Thanks
Awesome videos! I like seeing all the new riding spot and your new friend =D, very VERY surprised that the knobby is better at high speed, that is exactly what I would have predicted. And that fall.. ouch!
I'm disappointed. I need to find a less-sensitive street tire
@@KujiRolls Isn't Veteran supplying some percentage of their wheels with a street tire? Do you know what street tire they are using?
Looks as wide as my Z10 tyre. I wish you a speedy recovery bro👍🏾
@@KujiRolls And better protection, maybe check out the road before doing these kind of speeds on it.
Nice man. Thanks for this. I honestly love my knobby tyre - minus the slow speed control.
Miss your vids!! You are the best rider! Keepem coming!!
Queue all the comments on how to avoid wobbles ;-) Great video Kuji.
Go up overheat hill on a hot day - wait, no...
Thanks Marty. I find weaving side to side helps with wobbles. I wish there was a riding stimulator where I could experiment
Ordered one a month ago. Can't wait. Have experience with EUCs a lil bit so not new. Rode my buddies Sherman and just had to get one.
I have over 10,000 miles on my Onewheel XR and wanted more of a serious vehicle for traveling.
Great review and thanks for taking the risks so others don't have to. For me the choice is clear. First I'm not buying this machine to go 30mph or less. That's like getting a sports car and driving 55 all the time. Second, if someone with your skill set has problems handling that street tire at speed it means I should stick with the more stable knobby tire. It's too bad because the increased street noise is annoying and slow speed handling appear to suffer but I guess you can't have everything. Hope you heal quickly.
I'm glad that you wasn't banged up too badly after that fall. Glad that you're okay.
Good review.
P.S. love the instrumental.
Good to see your ok! Great video!
Production AND crash levels are INSANE. Dailying a motorcycle is bad enough, now I want one of these!
Damn you! >:D
commontreasures.com/
Clocked about 1h30m on my KS 18L and I know it will come with practice but the way Kuji turns son quickly is insane!
Solute to a real one ☝🏼 the crash motivated me to subscribe, great edit. WS ✊🏼
i have a feeling they will eventually release a v.2 of this thing in a year or more with suspension and better pedal clearance, once they do that. this will be virtually a flawless wheel.
That’s why I’m waiting I would get this wheel if it had suspension just cus it’s safer
Hi! It would be amazing to see detailed videos on entry level wheel too! I'm new in this field and I can't find good quality content about ks-14D (for example) ad so on. Great Channel!
Excellent production, and content.❤️
Best EUC channel on TH-cam! Keep hitten it outa the park boss!
Cammon...waiting for the master review...got popcorn and averythiny..and waiting for a couple of days....😁💪💪💪kujiiiii🙏🙏
great video like always. always pushing the limits...and accident...just stay safe. your health is more important then to have a speeding experience. its still illegal here in germany to ride the euc's. but still hoping that it will become popular and legal. till then i am enjoying to watch others in videos like this. ✌🏻
At 5:07 this man is going faster than mopeds
The lack of suspension on the Veteran, at those speeds, is really what made you fall.
Maybe, a little bit of suspension travel might surely help to keep keep the contact patch planted at the surface at all times, well most of the time depending on how you ride I suppose haha? But yeah sure, my wish is too see just a tad suspension and properly made, sturdy and no cheap, weak parts or constructions involved. Problem I see at this point in EUC evolution is that they need to start thinking about evolving these wheels in 2 different directions, you want street or off road? A longer suspension could potentially become expensive and perhaps complicated if wanting to get away with a "all in one" type wheel, for me looking for the fastest most rugged possible city wheel I would not want a long suspension travel, just something that can keep that contact patch and swallow seen and unseen obstacles and that is all. But fully understand others want a gigantic amount of movement for acrobatics or off road at the enduro trail. Will be interesting to follow development next few years and see how they solve technical challenges ahead without cost running out of control or quality suffer?
And pedal clearance
luffararne I agree. For me, just stability and safety matter. Segway PT had two models - i2 and X2. One for the street/tours and one for off roading. The X2 had huge diesel-looking wheels.
That's why I plan to also get the V11/a gotway msp or monster.
Yes, thats what he said in the video right after. But good detective work
Goddamn :D that fall and the ending 14:53 omegalol dat face: "You probably wonder how I got here.."
Great videos Kuji, keep them.. rolling in :)
Definitely recommend the company make that handle lock securely into the chassis to prevent the thing impaling someone upon impact.
Exceptional review and fun to watch.
I love your cinematography
This is not the end of Sherman reviews, now you must explore the wonderful world of tires and wheel balancing!
shin, elbow, and hip guards!. I got these pants that have pads installed for the hips, saved my hips from lots of bruising
OMG just got to the fall, wow! Glad you are alright
You convinced me I need a suspension.
Thanks for the review!
I’m so torn now between the S18 and the Sherman. I don’t know which one I want more. I want them both 😂
thank you for the video you are very nice and you show us reality, you sacrifice your life to show us good examples thank you very much to you kuji you are a real pro and i really like your channel good luck to you
Very Nice Review!!!
Thank you for the review 🇫🇷
Awesome vid. Hopefully your crash encourages others to wear gear, especially with the higher speed wheels.
Are you going to try a hybrid tire?
That wheel told us 2 intresting things: where is weight limit and that cool looking tire isn't the best one.
Before I saw the results of the crash, I was questioning how much road rash you would get. OUCH!
Suspension might have saved you !!! Hopefully they working on a suspension model next.
Awesome video! I’m shocked you didn’t use that hard crash as click bait for the video. But I respect you so much more cuz you didn’t! Keep the content coming
don't think that Im honorable enough to not think about it
man, you ride with NO FEAR AT ALL, incredible man how you ride, no one do it better than you , thars for sure
Sick scoop on this gig dude,,,, thanx for the infogig for real...... 🤙🏽
PS! I forgot to add a little bit of advice from a person of extreme sports. It’s got to do with road rash/road raspberries. When you fall and you get these third-degree road rash burns anywhere on your body. The remedy is quite simple. Take a sandwich baggie and cut it 2 inches larger than the road rash. Then apply triple antibiotic me a sporran to the wound. Then tape the plastic over the wound. I have a literally hit a nail on a skateboard ramp and pulled my pad completely off and knees with out leaving an amazingly horrific raspberry. I added nearest born to the hall and then taped on the plastic and Skateboard and the rest of the day without even noticing. Then, the next morning when I woke up I didn’t need to peel the sheets off my knee. That being said, spread the good news. PS, stay off your face, it seems to be working really well for me.
Street tire it is. I’m sure stability won’t be an issue once the seat comes out.
It will
Great review number 2 !
this is honestly my favorite channel now idk why but I just love it
That skill level is insane. Great driving
Geez that fall was shocking. Glad you're not hurt worse. They can add speed and suspension, but I hope the wheel makers can start figuring out ways to reduce wobble.
40 mph! Sheez! I don’t think I have the balance for this especially at that speed. Great review! I had to subscribe.
ouch... be careful man. I enjoy all of your videos
Glad you’re ok after that nasty fall, Kuji. Be more careful next time.
Be careful, my friend!
I hope your ok bro I haven't heard anything from you in a few weeks ??? .... stay safe and bless you bro " !! Happy rolling 😇
Bro I love your videos and you be moving on these things I've always wanted one of my own but they are too expensive.
I think I will gear up after seeing that crash. Kuji your riding is next level. 😲👍
Perfect. That was the plan all along
Buena!!! Espectacular monowheel ! Buena caída también ajjaja me encanto tu video felicitaciones! Un saludo desde 🇨🇱 Chile
I don't know how the hell I started watching this shit but its cooler than a polar bears toe nails. I like the production and I can appreciate the work put into this channel. Plus the music kicks donkey butt
Just got my Veteran Sherman Max and still no return of Kuji. Where you at man?
Great video!!!
You’ve been quiet for a while now.
Give us the much needed production Gotway / Begode Kuji review please! 😎
Kuji man, first you ride in burning heat, then through heavy rain, and now a 40mph crash?? I'm glad you're ok!
Would be killer if they made a version with v11 style suspension and used a tire that is in between knobby and street
Your so lucky you have all those wheels you want..hope I have even one of them to try
Good video man
I think you should go try going over that same bump with the knobby tires. They were added for good reason, the manufacturer knows very well that these will go offroad, hit potholes/bumps, etc.
Nasty fall you got there
Dude. I love the look of that thing beat up tbh
Dude, your skills are so sick! Unfortunately, that skews my judgment of the wheel. I can not tell if it is your masterful performance, or the wheel engineering that’s making the terrain a perfect partner.
The female EUC operator was a neat addition. A diverse consumer base brings innovative ideas to the community.
Kuji, why did you store your Sherman in the fire safe, and not your other wheels? Did you known about the internal faults, before Marty’s Overheat Hill incident?
Many Thanks
I don't even own anything like this let alone a bicycle, and I like this. Yooo ! Greets from Thailand.
Hi Kuji,
I really like your reviews!
Would you consider doing an overall recap of the wheels you tested this year and how they perform comparatively (which one you recommend basically)?
It could be done on an annual basis for example. The reason I am asking is because I am considering buying an EUC and they almost all seems great =P
At the moment I am considering the KS-S18, the Veteran Sherman among others.
Cheers!
Good review
Ooo I couldn't decide between this and the Kingsong S18, but after that fall and me being a total novice I'm going to go with the latter. keep up the good videos!
*spoiler* you're going to fall off the s18 for different reasons, lmao
I'm still waiting for the v11 vs s18 review you promised some videos ago ;)
man that's awesome. sounds like I'll keep and get used to the knobbies. I kinda like the hum.
thats one crazy fall. You got lucky, my man
That fall was mean to man glad you're ok
"I regret nothing!!!"...(...crash, tumble roll..) Lol, excellent tire comparison! Glad you got only some minor scrapes. A reminder to everyone watching to wear their gear. You are the most expensive and irreplaceable piece of equipment you will ever own.
My God! How fast is that!!
I can't help but think that requires a great amount of skill and balance to master....
I put knobbies on my motorcycle, and they just about walked me off the road in a turn on the highway at about 55 mph. I really had to lean into it to survive.
Glad your ok bro thats a nasty fall that
Yo Kuji, your videos are a pleasure to watch. I’m always looking forward to the next one, love the cinematography combined with the outstanding music. Quick question, is it totally legal to ride an euc in general, and of this caliber in Beijing, and China in general? Or Is it another one of those gray areas?
Beijing? Technically illegal but not enforced in any capacity. I'm allowed everywhere including the subway, official buildings, street, bike lanes, everywhere bikes are allowed and more.
@@KujiRolls That's awesome! Over here in the Netherlands we keep getting pulled over for riding unregistered vehicles that don't match the government standards of what a vehicle is, because those standarts date back to 1990. It's technically gray area because the vehicle requirements only apply to vehicles with 2 wheels or more, but the police never believes you and it's a tedious process to battle their decision to fine you or the your wheel. Hope they come to their senses one day. Super happy that you're allowed to ride without running into issues :)
So it's called a speed wobble.
And It happens on motorcycles as well.
The tread pattern on the tire may be causing it to wobble like that, Harley Davidson iron 883 used to come with a front tire with a similar tread pattern to yours and it would wobble pretty badly under acceleration and heavy breaking similarly to your tire.
If you are already taking the tire off to put the knoby one back on, you might as well experiment with different tires.
Plus it's content for your channel.
Tread pattern is a great point. I wonder how a racing slick would behave. Maybe it’s time to start thinking about high-speed stabilizers. Perhaps a wing or what about gyroscopic. Maybe the software can detect and correct. Everyday I ride a KS16X with stock tire with a similar tread pattern. At max psi, (37) it’s flick-able and dangerously wobbly above 30Kph. It seems the lower the air pressure, the more stability. Contact patch? How about a softer rubber? I would trade tire durability for speed.
@@bryanreidsands6854 I'm not an engineer, so I have no idea how you could correct speed wobbles on a one wheeled vehicle.
On motorcycles it corrected for through the bars/forks, but since these don't have handle bars or front forks.
Your guess is as good as mine.
But as far as your tires are concerned, look for something with no rain groves on the center portion of the tire.
Especially like this one that has a continuous squiggly grove down the center patch.
Slicks should work to eliminate any wobbles for heavy acceleration and heavy breaking.
But are going to slide around on you in the rain, so if you don't ride in the rain that's fine, but if you do then take it slow.
Or just look for a street tire with rain groves and a clear center patch.
Also as far as air pressure is concerned.
If you are very concerned about fuel economy, high top speed, and getting the most distance out of your battery, keep the air pressure at the maximum the tire allows.
But if you want more contact with the ground, better acceleration, better braking, more comfortable and better riding experience. Lower the air pressure.
But personally I wouldn't say lowering the air pressure will "fix" or reduce the chance of speed wobbles on a poorly designed tire.
But if it has been working for you, then that's good.
But I still recommend replacing the tire. Cause the moped/scooter tires that they use in these are dirt cheap and you're only buying 1.
Thank God you’re ok, that was a real nasty fall. Seems there’s a reason why they went with the knobby tire. So far there’s practically just one thing that I find offputting about this wheel, how complicated and messy it gets if you need to change a tire.
damn dude,,
you are beast.
Makes me to love to buy sherman
