I'm too excited to get my blitz! Was supposed to have it 4 days ago... but labor day weekend screwed that up😢 might be in tomorrow! The wheel feels so unreal when I rode it in China. I'm a master v3 guy and this wheel really changes things up! Thanks for the content!
A good initial review and I also dig your sound picking up the city noise which also tells something about your suspension when you can hear that so clearly. You can see its kinda wobbly at times and you did mention getting your sea legs; so true. The light magnifies the wobbliness. Braking wobbles even. Another good one. I do like that handle on the front. Thanks
I had thought about feeling bad about not waiting for the blitz for my first gig but I upgraded from a v11y on the way to a v4 master and WOW, first wheel, took quite a bit of time to learn blown away, 850 miles on it in 6 months. An incredible machine.
Begode imageware, didn't think that existed. Begode Bumpers - I 3D printed something better for my Master. Once you have your shock pressures and settings worked out be sure to record them. If you don't especially if you have more than one wheel you will forget, and the things leak with time. Stickers - I'm a sucker for stickers, I more than leave them on 🙂 Road tyre - I have been meaning to put one on my Master for the last year, I have the tyre a Michelin City Extra. I charge with the stock charger most of the time, if I have the time I charge slow - why not! I 3D printed two sustantial handles on my Master, (ABS) one front, one back - the best prints I have ever done for any of my EUC's, an essential. Also printed a seat in TPU (two in fact, the first one was too soft). I put extra lights on the Master but just don't ride at night, I really should give it a go, just hasn't happened. My understanding is that the Blitz is the successor to the Master, the IP rating and the Smart BMS I think are the primary advances (build quality perhaps), but they should have made the footplates height adjustable as well.
someone posted on reddit this week, that after their Blitz fell over at around 5mph, the top handle cracked in half on the right side. Doesn't bode well for long term toughness. Unless it's like a V14 and designed to be easily replaced.
Certainly it would be easy to replace, but could be expensive and timely to get one. It's unibody construction so if the handle breaks you must replace the entire top.
@ElectricUnicycles in the begode channel tear down you can see that the side pieces are separate from the top piece sort of like rails, just the side that broke would need to be replaced
Roger's charger has changed a lot since I bought mine and it wasn't that long ago. The Blitz is the Master replacement? I have liked my V1 Master, warts and all.
Seems like alot is riding on a shock that has no manual. Begode is know for their poor shock quality, comparative to their competitors. Is this one a step forward from the ET Max or backwards?
The V4 version of the Master is an amazing wheel and you can't beat the value proposition. Don't get caught up in the hype of new wheels, unless you really want too 🙂
No. I'm not getting bad wobbles. But some wheels will develop wobbles (ALL EUC's can get wobbles) easier than others, and I I only have ~40-miles on this wheel. The tire is excellent.
Be CAREFUL doing the twist seat on that charger, you'll burn your charge board that way and ruin the charger. Learned the hard way, Jason sent me a new charger thankfully but I had to cover the charge board. - Master v4
@@ElectricUnicycles As you plug in the cable, you force it in and twist, the connectors are close enough to the plastic to make contact. Make sure you line up the dimple then push in. I personally like power off, plug up, power on charge.
@@jimskyboy2 I think that happens when people are applying lots of force on the connector as they turn it, which I don't. I've been charging wheels for 8+ years so I have a good feel for it. But thanks for the warning for others that may read your comment 👍
When they were racing one of thes guys took a Dremel and cut the screen off of this electrician unicycles supposed to be for racing you know you're going to dump it at some point so I think this thing was made to be pretty but it's really not for racing like they said because I believe you're going to crash and if you crash and you're going to destroy this
My only concern is the alarming rate China I pumping out euc’s, what is todays latest 4K dollar wheel is next weeks old hat … it would put me off shelling out my hard earnt dimes , I guess technology has always been the same in its defence , I do not like those horrible led’s is like your riding a gaming pc 🤢 cheers Marty
the much bigger issue is that the EUC companies, Begode worst of all; stop producing spare parts for the old wheels as soon as they have a new one and production of the old wheel has stopped. I have an EX20 which is kinda notorious for frying controlboards, if my OEM one breaks I am sh!t out of luck. Good thing I already have around 6k kilometers on the clock so I have gotten at least some of my money's worth out of it.
Most beatiful design begode wheel :)
Most anticipated review 😮. Atleast for me 😁 thx Marty!!
Well, it's not really a review, but it's the beginning :-)

I'll get mine in a couple of days, 1st big wheel after my V10F . I hope I'll be well in control of that wheel. Tell us about yours please 😉
@semperfi4309 my blitz has been delayed delivery for a week! I'm so upset and frustrated with fedex
@@TheBergMan Let's be positive, it's patience exercise! ...
@semperfi4309 it's definitely testing my patience 😆

Everything you do is useful Marty, thanks for another informative inaugural ride. 6 pac Gord
Great to see you brother. Keep on riding. Olympia WA
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhh so happy to see it! thx marty ⚡⚡⚡

Marty you are becoming a tire nerd! 😁
Night rides are my favorite and so are the videos with just ambient noise!

@@ElectricUnicyclesseriously makes me question whether their designers even ride.
@@TimTimEUC Bout a billion other peeps are wondering the same.

@@tomnel Agreed. I have since had to take the Blitz apart. Hopefully the plastic won't break too easy and it won't be difficult to procure.
Just got mine today 🎉

Night rides are the best ...we specialize in this .. Capital Knights.. DMV area...
I have been inside that Cinemark
my led light got stuck in day 3 or so

I'd be hard pressed to say whether it's better or worse or the same as the ET Max.
“Normal” works for me 😂
I bought a master v4 for $1900, should I have gotten this instead???

@ElectricUnicycles you da man!
Is there a drop date for Roger’s speed test for the Blitz? Thx
You really should visit Roger's TH-cam channel because I have no idea what his plans are, schedule, etc
I wonder if swapping the tire will help with the wobbles
No. I'm not getting bad wobbles. But some wheels will develop wobbles (ALL EUC's can get wobbles) easier than others, and I I only have ~40-miles on this wheel. The tire is excellent.

Huh, the wheel tread looks like it has deer/antlers, is that intentional?
I can provide zero insight into the design goals of the Blitz aesthetic.
Slow down my man you put out more content than Disney 😂 better content 2

aren't these suppose to have infinity break lights?
That was a custom job
increase viewing speed to x1.5
