I’m glad you did the range test like this in these harsh conditions. This means I would get a lot more than 51miles since I don’t do any off roading like you. Great advice about riding at top speed. My comfort level for the Tesla is 27-30-31. I’m happy with that. Great work
Thanks for the safety tips about high speed use. It was great to see that you're no nutter, pushing the max to 48 kmph. 45 is good and quick, honestly 30 is fine by me
Your reviews are always on point! The music was cool. Didn't know you had it in you! Stay safe. Got my first euc last week - Ninebot A1. Already looking at reviews for an upgrade. :)
Thanks for watching! (Camera....not a present, bought 2 out of my own pocket..lol) Not bad footage for the cheapest in the range of the GoPro's, used to use them a lot, havent for years, so nice to have the possibilities of angles back!
Great review. I like the range it has and I like the idea of cruising at 30km/h. Here ins Australia the government have just legalised 2 wheeled Segway's. It will be a while before they warm to a seriously powerful machine like that. Meanwhile I guess I will just have to ride on my Ninebot One around my farm chasing the kangaroos.
Yeah it certainly gives more options. No getting past it though - it is massive, so for commuters unless there is loads of room on the tube to put it, and the shelf is low to put it on then the Msuper V3 is the one to go for. If you are looking for a lot of riding / trail riding then this is the boy!
Power is why I got a V10 over a V8. The ability to do hills, accelerate out of difficult situations and general rideability are where it’s at - not top speed as you rightly say. The V10 is my first wheel and although fairly competent now, I choose to leave the speed limiter on as it’s getting easier and easier to not realise just how fast it can go and I need to be reminded! Great review. I have some rides in mind in western China where the extra range, would indeed be a big advantage. Charging times become an issue in these situations too.
That 20% beeping thing seems like a major oversight. Still would love to try it. I think it would be a great wheel for us heavier guys. I rode my $230 14" trainer today and it cut out at 1.4 miles! (Lots of hills) It crashed, but I didn't. Lol Thank you for another great review. Hope Gotway is listening.
Thank you for al your videos, awesome...I am trying to find the right elec unicycle...I need it to commute (using the train in the middle) and also to practice some tricks...so I guess that I need something relatively light, with handle but fast and powerful enough...what would be the best guess...I like the GW ACM but doesn't have the handle and not sure if it is good for tricks.
I'm 73 and would be happy with a slooow one and maybe with 2 side by side wheels. Swagroller and V3 come to mind. I don't see them for sale or I'm just looking in the wrong places. That's a great hallway you have there. Hey how fast can you stop from speed?
have these things improved? cant decide between this and the kingsong 18. i like the bigger wheel on this and the max speed at 30 mph when the KS is like 25 mph. but the ks should be ezer to maneuver, tho this one doesnt seem too bad. the KS also has a seat and 4 speakers on it and charges faster, tho its batt is half of this one. any opinions guys?
Fantastic Ian. I've been waiting for someone to provide a more in-depth look at the Monster. I really enjoy trail riding. Can you give me your impression on how it handles in terms of torque. Do you feel that it can climb steep dirt paths as well (or better) as the MSuper?
Torque is an interesting one, due to the increase in size it requires much more of a committed lean into it to get it going, unlike the 18,16,14,10 inch wheels a simple press down of the toes does NOT cut it here. Committed lean whilst keeping your heels flat down is what is needed to get it rolling at a good speed. Same for steep hills. Its not that its struggling, its that its a 22 inch wheel, and coupled with that is the fact that you are a lot less leverage compared to a smaller wheel due to the size increase.
How does this unit compare to the NB One for the purposes of pushing others on bikes? I push my wife a lot with my NB One. Other than rapidly draining the battery, I don't sense that it has a problem with torque. Would this unit come up short in the towing/pushing category due to its size?
I want to buy unicycle as alternative mean of transport and for fun aswell. I can either go 2 miles to train station or go side-road 12 miles straight to work. What unicycle would your recommend me? Does the unicycle have any shock absorbers/dampers? I would like to move over slight obsticles like with bike. Thank you.
Your legs and the tire is the shock absorber. The journey you are talking about I would recommend the InMotion V8 or the Ninebot ONE E+ Ninebot: www.speedyfeet.co.uk/collections/electric-unicycle/products/ninebot-one-e-gen2-single-wheel-transporter-35km-range InMotion: www.speedyfeet.co.uk/collections/electric-unicycle/products/inmotion-v8 Hope this helps!
Hi Ian! I am watching your reviews cuite a long time, and really appreciate of what you doing. Just one remark, if you accept - buy yourself small stabulizer for camera, like Zhiyun Rider M, or something like that. It will make your videos even better!
We have the DJI Osmo Mobile, but it has a firmware issue at the moment, so unfortunately couldn't use it! Real shame as we got it specifically to do this video (and other in the future). Hopefully will be resolved for the next one. Thanks for watching!
Marco Domingos The law doesn't cover single wheel electric unicycles. This doesn't make them legal, it means there is not ruling on it, and would take a challenge in court. We are not aware of any of our hundreds of customers having any issues with the authorities. Hope this helps!
Speedy Feet UK my question is if I have a problem what will happen? And did you company give support if something happens? I would like to buy 2 segways mini one for me and one for my girlfriend but we have to feel confident because what I heard on internet is illegal and even if you want to pay a license is not possible to take it
Good review Ian. I think gotway should consult with you & get your feedback before releasing new models. The V3 is big enough, but this is massive. I can't see that the even bigger wheel adds to the off road performance apart from just flicking more mud over yourself. The build quality looks ropey as it squeeks & the coating is already peeling. Plus no trolley handle. Gotway, why not make a quality machine which is smaller / better looking with a quick charging clip in type removable battery, so you have the option to keep the weight down but also carry a spare if you want to. (sleek cordless drill lithium ion type) Also make the software & app accurate. As for the beeping, it doesn't even need to beep only just tilt you back.
The build quality actually does feel pretty solid, 50 miles in there are no creaks. Trolley handle should be inbuilt really for this weight I feel. Its a really lovely ride I must say, for long journeys its amazing. This is the one I will be doing the 1000 mile charity ride on next year. Thanks for watching!
They might want to add a 90° air pump adapter... love the frost finish, but as you pointed out not adhering very well... definitely needs mud flap, if you add a trolley handle might balance machine out, but then you said back is heavy... they can't possibly make a better version, beyond better firmware...
Hey Ian, can you do a review for the climb angle the monster can achieve? I did one for msuper 3 s+ on TH-cam under my channel bw5500 a few months back. Just curious to see the difference. I also topped out at 45kph. Great review!
28km then you would be looking at ideally 1300wh and above, so ACM 1300 would suit you down to the ground, OR could go Inmotion V8 (www.speedyfeet.co.uk/collections/featured-collection/products/inmotion-v8)
Ali, Yes the Msuper V3 is ideal. Monster is a bit to big for moving around people in a busy environment and to heavy for lifting up flights of stairs. The speed and wheel size of 22 inch would be wasted for slower inner city riding, the Msuper V3 would be more than enough for you! Thanks for watching and the comments!
I appreciate you much for spending much of your time and effort. Thinking of huge amount juice on it, it does not give longer distance than expected, probably due to its heaviness. Frustrating. For I am more interested in the range covered than other benefits.
Yup, that was the only time I ever fell. I was expecting it to tilt back or do something, but it didn't. They fixed that problem in the newer ones. I was riding the original msuper
Amazing and helpfull review!!! i am an msuper v3 680wh owner and i must admit that after mine learning period, i love using msuper v3 so much that i drive it almost everyday in the summer... but i didn make a good choice about the battery capacity... :S 680wh is not that great ... i am looking foward to buy new gotway product maybe this monster will be good choice for me... i am not quite sure wich battery i gonna take 2400 or 1600wh price different is alot so .. is it worth the extra cash? oh in the video review you say something if the mainboard fails your peddles will drop down very quicly on this part i am very affraid if i ride on any unicycle that this can happen you know.. :/ i saw people at low speeds crashing because of their mainboard blew up... this is my biggest concern of all these products is there not a safety procedure in order to prevent this.? thanks
Thanks for watching and the comments. Board failure is instant crash. BUT one thing I must state, in 2 years of riding and 10,000 of miles, and riding MANY different models, I have not had a board fail from just using it as it should be. Yes there can be failures due to something wrong with the board, but they are very small amounts compared to the number due to miss use / miss understanding of how to treat them. For instance riding at max speed is a real reason for a failure, just because a unicycle is advertised as being able to do 50kmh doesnt mean you SHOULD ;)
okay so if i drive on flat roads under 30km/u mark then it should be okey right. i am not a speed devil wants to put the machine to the max limits... Gotway monster dont have a handle bar in some places i think a handle bar is neccensary if you walk into a shop or mall... then gotway monster is not that best choice for doing it then i rather prefere the new msuper v3+ model. thanks
Under 30km you should be ok. Really the only other thing that can cause a failure is penduluming back and forth. Yes trolley handle is needed for inner city / going around the shops for sure. The Msuper V3 820, 1300 or 1600wh fit into this!
Ian, do you teach people in the UK ? I'm just thinking if you don't it might be a good way of expanding your business. Get a few experienced guys to join you and you'll get a following quite quickly if you do lot's of demos and teach 'n' ride events. Your videos and reviews show that you obviously know what you're doing and that you have patience.
you do the best reviews for these mono cycles. does this unit not have a pull out handle? I would hate to carry this around. Also, I really wish they allow you to turn down the volume on the beeping.
Charles, thanks for watching and the comments! It does not have a handle no unfortunately, I think they thought that the extra height meant it wasnt as needed, although you still have to bend to push (at my height anyway). Alarm, yeah a real shame the threshold wasnt changed. Its good there is a loud alarm, as its needed, you need to know when the batt is low and also when you hit 80% power output, without this it would be dangerous. They just need to adjust the parameters :)
Hy Ian! I am not completly with you with the 20% warning.... The main point on the 20% warning is not that you still have a decent range....when you come to the 20% you are that low on voltage, that a Overlean could lead to a cutout, and that stays the same, even on this massive batterie.....Its no difference if you have a 800wh or a 2400wh batterie...as soon ys you reach this low percentage, on both batteries you are on exactly the same voltage! Yip...you have more range on the 2400wh, but the dangerous is that a "massive powersurge" like a big hill, big bump or overlean can bring the wheel over the "razors edge"....and cutout... Sure! Its annoying beeping, and could/should be presented a bit less nervewrecking. What this highspeed of the new GW's belongs....i am really afraid, that the time will come when we will have the first dead person from an highspeed EUC! Unfortunatly some people dont understand there is no redundance at all, and/or that every EUC just cut's out when brought over the edge......
Voltage fluctuation on a larger capacity battery fits in line with its state of charge just like on a smaller one, leaving much more margin if treated in %. 20% is no where near the more 'unstable' low charge state on the 2400wh. The unbalance you see in lower capacity batteries is when their state of charge is imminent to total loss of power, with the 2400wh 20% is no where near this situation, so it needs to be adjusted as such through testing, if there was a compromise it would be to make the firmware restrict the POWER by 20% and at that point also introduce tilt back, and then make the beeping start at 5-10% instead. Speed is a problem for sure, people seem to abuse it far to much (those people on the whole are people who have not yet had a big fall!).
Hmmm ... time to upgrade from previous GWays 16, 18 now ITS 22inches 2400 ! Brilliant ! Thanks for the info ... Hey Ian ... some irritation here . How would you deal to the ignoramus of the police and subcontrators like G4s telling not to use our unicycle anywhere ? The British Transport Act of 1988 only deals with accident reporting and noncompliance. One policeman said " you must be licence !" and told him - as per telephone conversation with a staff - the description of Electric Unicycle is not covered by DVLA. So where do you go to clear the air here in the UK - while other countries are accepting and loving this devices with open arms and delight. UK is restricting tehnological progress. Anyone here to start a petition to the UK NGO's ? Grey area Hey ?
Grey area correct. Best stance is to treat it as not ok and be prepared to suffer the consequences. In the last 2 years and 100's of units sold have not had any issues...so far! )
I custom made a handle out of the Airwheel MarsRover! I am loving it (Marsrover) every minute wheeling (pushing that is!) the Monster everywhere where use is not possible! Here is how it look if you are not bothered by nose being pokey! carousell.com/p/83443296/
I’m glad you did the range test like this in these harsh conditions. This means I would get a lot more than 51miles since I don’t do any off roading like you. Great advice about riding at top speed. My comfort level for the Tesla is 27-30-31. I’m happy with that. Great work
Cheers.
Thanks once again Ian for putting so much time and effort into doing a thorough review!
Thanks! and thanks for watching!
Speedy Feet UK your lucky can you send me one or even a gotway acm 16 or a wheel that's 16 inches
ราคาเท่าไหร่ครับ
Thank you for this review. i'm an happy owner of this monster, but a beginner too, and it make me happy every day ! happy new year to your all team !
jacques-hubert RAYNAUD
how are you liking the monster torn between this and 3s+
Thanks for the safety tips about high speed use. It was great to see that you're no nutter, pushing the max to 48 kmph. 45 is good and quick, honestly 30 is fine by me
Yes 30 is fine by me as well lol, even at that speed you are pushing the boundaries. Thanks for watching!
Your reviews are always on point! The music was cool. Didn't know you had it in you! Stay safe. Got my first euc last week - Ninebot A1. Already looking at reviews for an upgrade. :)
Thanks for watching!
Someone got a new camera for Christmas. 😉. Great video Ian, thank you again for all you do for the sport.
Thanks for watching! (Camera....not a present, bought 2 out of my own pocket..lol) Not bad footage for the cheapest in the range of the GoPro's, used to use them a lot, havent for years, so nice to have the possibilities of angles back!
Great review and thanks for the safety discussion. That's of huge importance to us who are completely unfamiliar with EUCs.
This is history of the sport! The Monster1!!! so cool
Great review. I like the range it has and I like the idea of cruising at 30km/h. Here ins Australia the government have just legalised 2 wheeled Segway's. It will be a while before they warm to a seriously powerful machine like that. Meanwhile I guess I will just have to ride on my Ninebot One around my farm chasing the kangaroos.
Ha ha!
Better than kangaroos chasing you I guess.
So at 45 kmh where my acm shut down, this will keep me upright :D
Very cool video speedy! great fun and very informative
It should do yes :) Thanks for watching!
@@Speedyfeetuk Is the Veteran Sherman this safe?
@@ryandavis4689 It is much safer.
That was an amazing review. Thank you Ian :)
Thanks Ovie!
Very informative video review. Nicely done. Keep up the good work.
Much appreciated!
I'm glad I didn't rush to buy msuper v3. More options to think about next year
Yeah it certainly gives more options. No getting past it though - it is massive, so for commuters unless there is loads of room on the tube to put it, and the shelf is low to put it on then the Msuper V3 is the one to go for. If you are looking for a lot of riding / trail riding then this is the boy!
Thank you very much for this review!
No problem at all, glad you enjoyed it!
What is the real angle of ascent and descent overcomes the wheel? And, What is the real distance?
Power is why I got a V10 over a V8. The ability to do hills, accelerate out of difficult situations and general rideability are where it’s at - not top speed as you rightly say. The V10 is my first wheel and although fairly competent now, I choose to leave the speed limiter on as it’s getting easier and easier to not realise just how fast it can go and I need to be reminded! Great review. I have some rides in mind in western China where the extra range, would indeed be a big advantage. Charging times become an issue in these situations too.
Glad you are getting along well with yours, good decision with limiting your top speed - prevents serious injury :)
What’s up the high pitch whine throughout the whole video?
That 20% beeping thing seems like a major oversight. Still would love to try it. I think it would be a great wheel for us heavier guys. I rode my $230 14" trainer today and it cut out at 1.4 miles! (Lots of hills) It crashed, but I didn't. Lol Thank you for another great review. Hope Gotway is listening.
Glad you are ok! Thanks for watching and the comments!
can you give a direct comparison of the msuper v3 s+ and the monster?
Another great video👍. Love the husky battery extender ☺️
Ha ha the Husky is a proper dude 😎
how tall should one be to ride sitting ? i am 6 ft 3 inch and i am not sure..
Hi. Any words on the strength of the monster shell? Is it a problem? What sort of shell problems and How to fix it?
Thank you for al your videos, awesome...I am trying to find the right elec unicycle...I need it to commute (using the train in the middle) and also to practice some tricks...so I guess that I need something relatively light, with handle but fast and powerful enough...what would be the best guess...I like the GW ACM but doesn't have the handle and not sure if it is good for tricks.
Gotway Tesla 1020Wh 84V, light and fast, or MCM5
Is this unicycle able to be fitted with a brake?
Thanks to your brilliant reviews I'm happy owner of 2 Minipro.
I'm 73 and would be happy with a slooow one and maybe with 2 side by side wheels. Swagroller and V3 come to mind. I don't see them for sale or I'm just looking in the wrong places. That's a great hallway you have there. Hey how fast can you stop from speed?
have these things improved? cant decide between this and the kingsong 18. i like the bigger wheel on this and the max speed at 30 mph when the KS is like 25 mph. but the ks should be ezer to maneuver, tho this one doesnt seem too bad. the KS also has a seat and 4 speakers on it and charges faster, tho its batt is half of this one. any opinions guys?
Lots to consider I guess. What range are you looking for per ride out?
Fantastic Ian. I've been waiting for someone to provide a more in-depth look at the Monster. I really enjoy trail riding. Can you give me your impression on how it handles in terms of torque. Do you feel that it can climb steep dirt paths as well (or better) as the MSuper?
Torque is an interesting one, due to the increase in size it requires much more of a committed lean into it to get it going, unlike the 18,16,14,10 inch wheels a simple press down of the toes does NOT cut it here. Committed lean whilst keeping your heels flat down is what is needed to get it rolling at a good speed. Same for steep hills. Its not that its struggling, its that its a 22 inch wheel, and coupled with that is the fact that you are a lot less leverage compared to a smaller wheel due to the size increase.
How does this unit compare to the NB One for the purposes of pushing others on bikes? I push my wife a lot with my NB One. Other than rapidly draining the battery, I don't sense that it has a problem with torque. Would this unit come up short in the towing/pushing category due to its size?
I want to buy unicycle as alternative mean of transport and for fun aswell. I can either go 2 miles to train station or go side-road 12 miles straight to work. What unicycle would your recommend me? Does the unicycle have any shock absorbers/dampers? I would like to move over slight obsticles like with bike. Thank you.
Your legs and the tire is the shock absorber. The journey you are talking about I would recommend the InMotion V8 or the Ninebot ONE E+

Hi Ian! I am watching your reviews cuite a long time, and really appreciate of what you doing. Just one remark, if you accept - buy yourself small stabulizer for camera, like Zhiyun Rider M, or something like that. It will make your videos even better!
We have the DJI Osmo Mobile, but it has a firmware issue at the moment, so unfortunately couldn't use it! Real shame as we got it specifically to do this video (and other in the future). Hopefully will be resolved for the next one. Thanks for watching!
hi I would like to buy one from you guys but in the UK I can't use it outside.. do you have any idea when the law will change? Thank you

I can't read all your message
Speedy Feet UK my question is if I have a problem what will happen? And did you company give support if something happens? I would like to buy 2 segways mini one for me and one for my girlfriend but we have to feel confident because what I heard on internet is illegal and even if you want to pay a license is not possible to take it
Such a massive battery I'm running out of trails LOL 17:10
Donnie Vitelloni 🤣
Good review Ian.
I think gotway should consult with you & get your feedback before releasing new models. The V3 is big enough, but this is massive. I can't see that the even bigger wheel adds to the off road performance apart from just flicking more mud over yourself. The build quality looks ropey as it squeeks & the coating is already peeling. Plus no trolley handle.
Gotway, why not make a quality machine which is smaller / better looking with a quick charging clip in type removable battery, so you have the option to keep the weight down but also carry a spare if you want to. (sleek cordless drill lithium ion type) Also make the software & app accurate.
As for the beeping, it doesn't even need to beep only just tilt you back.
The build quality actually does feel pretty solid, 50 miles in there are no creaks. Trolley handle should be inbuilt really for this weight I feel. Its a really lovely ride I must say, for long journeys its amazing. This is the one I will be doing the 1000 mile charity ride on next year. Thanks for watching!
how is the pedal problem now?is it indeed a problem?
They now come with the Msuper footplates, so no issue :)
They might want to add a 90° air pump adapter... love the frost finish, but as you pointed out not adhering very well... definitely needs mud flap, if you add a trolley handle might balance machine out, but then you said back is heavy... they can't possibly make a better version, beyond better firmware...
Mud flap is something it 100% needs, got covered lol.
Did you tested it out on wet roads? Did you get wet behind, from splashing water of the spinning wheel?
Rudy Sijnke hell, I have the miniPRO, no mud flaps, yet, and both legs are completely soaked, fkn irritating!
Where can we buy them in the USA?
Ewheels.com
do u know any link were can u buy it?
Ewheels.com
Hi Speedy Feet,i have a questionsee here below,
What is the brand name of the black helmet that you wear ?
Pending your comment....
Thanks,
Hey Ian, can you do a review for the climb angle the monster can achieve? I did one for msuper 3 s+ on TH-cam under my channel bw5500 a few months back. Just curious to see the difference. I also topped out at 45kph. Great review!
I could edge at 52-53 with still no dip on my ms3s+. Safe max speed is around 50, with a safe cruising speed of 45.
Wich unicycle would you recomend?
Im 14 and I want to use aw a bike to ride to school (14km) (28 in a day).price doesnt matter.
And I have experience with unicycles.
28km then you would be looking at ideally 1300wh and above, so ACM 1300 would suit you down to the ground, OR could go Inmotion V8 (www.speedyfeet.co.uk/collections/featured-collection/products/inmotion-v8)
Is iT than possible to ride the 28 km in less than an half hour
100volt monster
thanks Ian for your nice review.
So do you recommend Msuper V3 for an urban dayly use, in comparison to the Monster?
I used my V3 everyday in New York City. It's pretty well suited for urban use.
very good.
and do you think it's better than the Monster?
Ali, Yes the Msuper V3 is ideal. Monster is a bit to big for moving around people in a busy environment and to heavy for lifting up flights of stairs.
The speed and wheel size of 22 inch would be wasted for slower inner city riding, the Msuper V3 would be more than enough for you!
Thanks for watching and the comments!
Hello mate... I’m
Roughly 115kg .. do you think I can get at least 40miles on this at 20 miles an hour ?
Might be pushing it, at 15mph yes would have thought so.
Kilometers, not miles. I noticed the unit when you recorded a look at the gotway app.
Thats a happy dog, 🐕
Amazing review! Bit lengthy, bit informative :). Keep it up!
hi. excellent review. what app are you using on your phone ????
Hi Ian, I'm waiting for the review of the Gotway Monster 100V 1845Wh, for the speed fans.
It will come once we have them in ;)
I appreciate you much for spending much of your time and effort. Thinking of huge amount juice on it, it does not give longer distance than expected, probably due to its heaviness. Frustrating. For I am more interested in the range covered than other benefits.
I went max speed and it shut off and I fell flat lol 20mph. Luckily I only got forearm and knee scrapes, nothing broken.
Glad to hear you are not to injured. Always best to go a speed that you can run out of, this will almost mitigate serious injury.
Yup, that was the only time I ever fell. I was expecting it to tilt back or do something, but it didn't. They fixed that problem in the newer ones. I was riding the original msuper
Ah ok, series 1/2 version. Well glad your ok :)
Yup :) It healed pretty well, just some slight scarring.
belle bête! belle présentation merci Speedy Feet UK . Mais après le GW Msuper3 820wh je choisi le Ms3 1600wh rapport qualité/prix/poids/distance
I am in the middle of buying one of these right now I should have it in a week exact same one you're riding but blue. The 20% seems stupid
Congrats on your purchase, don't forget to checkout www.SpeedyFeet.co.uk :)
Hi Ian, does it have a light sensor detector? (automaticly switching on at dark /off at daylight. Thanks, Rudy
Rudy, it does not :)
Any word from GotWay if the alarm-beeps can be fixed with a software update?
You're going to run out of batteries on the dog before the euc.
Lol (Actually when fully grown he will do 12mph average for 100 miles!)
Love the Helmet, where did u buy it from?
Amazing and helpfull review!!! i am an msuper v3 680wh owner and i must admit that after mine learning period, i love using msuper v3 so much that i drive it almost everyday in the summer... but i didn make a good choice about the battery capacity... :S 680wh is not that great ... i am looking foward to buy new gotway product maybe this monster will be good choice for me... i am not quite sure wich battery i gonna take 2400 or 1600wh price different is alot so .. is it worth the extra cash? oh in the video review you say something if the mainboard fails your peddles will drop down very quicly on this part i am very affraid if i ride on any unicycle that this can happen you know.. :/ i saw people at low speeds crashing because of their mainboard blew up... this is my biggest concern of all these products is there not a safety procedure in order to prevent this.? thanks
Nope! Thats on all unicycles...failure on batteries or mainboard means---Faceplant!
Thanks for watching and the comments. Board failure is instant crash. BUT one thing I must state, in 2 years of riding and 10,000 of miles, and riding MANY different models, I have not had a board fail from just using it as it should be.

did you a range test with msuper v3+ 1600wh?
Ian, do you teach people in the UK ? I'm just thinking if you don't it might be a good way of expanding your business. Get a few experienced guys to join you and you'll get a following quite quickly if you do lot's of demos and teach 'n' ride events. Your videos and reviews show that you obviously know what you're doing and that you have patience.
Молодцы ребята.Удачи!
Thanks for the support!
you do the best reviews for these mono cycles. does this unit not have a pull out handle? I would hate to carry this around. Also, I really wish they allow you to turn down the volume on the beeping.
No handle. You can take out the alarm. It's not that hard to disassemble and reassemble these unicycles.
Charles, thanks for watching and the comments! It does not have a handle no unfortunately, I think they thought that the extra height meant it wasnt as needed, although you still have to bend to push (at my height anyway).
Alarm, yeah a real shame the threshold wasnt changed. Its good there is a loud alarm, as its needed, you need to know when the batt is low and also when you hit 80% power output, without this it would be dangerous. They just need to adjust the parameters :)
Hy Ian!
I am not completly with you with the 20% warning....
The main point on the 20% warning is not that you still have a decent range....when you come to the 20% you are that low on voltage, that a Overlean could lead to a cutout, and that stays the same, even on this massive batterie.....Its no difference if you have a 800wh or a 2400wh batterie...as soon ys you reach this low percentage, on both batteries you are on exactly the same voltage!
Yip...you have more range on the 2400wh, but the dangerous is that a "massive powersurge" like a big hill, big bump or overlean can bring the wheel over the "razors edge"....and cutout...
Sure! Its annoying beeping, and could/should be presented a bit less nervewrecking.
What this highspeed of the new GW's belongs....i am really afraid, that the time will come when we will have the first dead person from an highspeed EUC!
Unfortunatly some people dont understand there is no redundance at all, and/or that every EUC just cut's out when brought over the edge......
Voltage fluctuation on a larger capacity battery fits in line with its state of charge just like on a smaller one, leaving much more margin if treated in %. 20% is no where near the more 'unstable' low charge state on the 2400wh. The unbalance you see in lower capacity batteries is when their state of charge is imminent to total loss of power, with the 2400wh 20% is no where near this situation, so it needs to be adjusted as such through testing, if there was a compromise it would be to make the firmware restrict the POWER by 20% and at that point also introduce tilt back, and then make the beeping start at 5-10% instead.
Speed is a problem for sure, people seem to abuse it far to much (those people on the whole are people who have not yet had a big fall!).
Hmmm ... time to upgrade from previous GWays 16, 18 now ITS 22inches 2400 ! Brilliant !
Thanks for the info ... Hey Ian ... some irritation here . How would you deal to the ignoramus of the police and subcontrators like G4s telling not to use our unicycle anywhere ? The British Transport Act of 1988 only deals with accident reporting and noncompliance. One policeman said " you must be licence !" and told him - as per telephone conversation with a staff - the description of Electric Unicycle is not covered by DVLA. So where do you go to clear the air here in the UK - while other countries are accepting and loving this devices with open arms and delight. UK is restricting tehnological progress. Anyone here to start a petition to the UK NGO's ? Grey area Hey ?
Grey area correct. Best stance is to treat it as not ok and be prepared to suffer the consequences. In the last 2 years and 100's of units sold have not had any issues...so far! )
If only I had the money to buy it ..., it costs a third of the price of a brand new city car. Gotway Monster - 2400€, Renault Clio - 7500€
But you have to put fuel into those ha ha
BEEEEEEP BEEEEP BEEEEP
BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP!
BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP!!!
BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP!!!
Here in 2022 where 70 kph top speed is considered the bare minimum.
Yeah amazed not more accidents!
I custom made a handle out of the Airwheel MarsRover! I am loving it (Marsrover) every minute wheeling (pushing that is!) the Monster everywhere where use is not possible!
Here is how it look if you are not bothered by nose being pokey!

why put a fucking pesky cst tire on that thing... deserves something with a much better compound grip wise.
28 KG omg
dude it can go faster than 50
Don't sound safe at all man a wheel that big.
This thing....or the Veteran Sherman?.... I think we all know what's up...
Hhhhmmmm, yeah think I would go Sherman probably, but there is a 24 inch monster coming to market as well!
I think GotWay Msuper V3 is better
Whys that?
@@Speedyfeetuk the gaps did not like between the wheel and the body
Looks heavy
Ariel Ramos very, around 38kg. Luckily hardly ever have to carry it!
Gotway quality sucks get yourself a Ninebot.
