Sure get a bike, I like my bike too, it’s a different tool.
My EUC goes hiking with me, I trolley it while I hike, I got back from that a bit ago.
I don’t like the trip between my house and the trail, and the EUC makes that part fun.
Anyway sounds like it’s not for you, although I wonder if you also have a car and use it for trips under 5 miles ;)
I use mine daily. I’d recommend the Nosfet Aero as a first EUC.
I usually ride mine twice a day, once to go get some groceries from walmart and once to some trails that I hike nearby.
It’s a bike that you don’t have to chain up

That seems counter intuitive but if you can vouch for it then maybe I’ll give it a try
I have an ebike so I don’t really care about weight lol

In general the lower the pedals are to the ground the easier it is to ride and the more stable it is
The Falcon pedals here are quite high up and it makes it feel less stable. I would prefer them an inch or two lower

I bought a new begode Falcon (with cryptocurrency on Ewheels.com) and this thing is a blast with the suspension. I changed the stock pads for these small pink ones.
It’s got a nice simple design and is super easy to take apart. It goes about 25mph for 20-30 miles, same as my mten5.
I wouldn’t recommend it as a first wheel though due to how high the pedals are. I think the mten5 or Future or A2 are better to learn on.

Futuremotion added “haptic buzz” to help warn people when they’re near overpowering the wheel.
I’ve met lots of people who just don’t understand that the wheel keeps you balanced by driving faster than you’re leaning. If you overlean it you crash.

EUCs can too, but it’s harder to do because they mostly have way more torque to stay balanced.
Imo, speed wobbles are the biggest danger on both. Speed wobbles are my enemy

It’s a great commuter. Relatively waterproof, durable, goes 34mph, 30+ mile range.
I really just ride my mten5 or ex30 or motorcycle 95% of the time though
corm@lemmy.worldto Gaming@lemmy.zip•Black Myth: Wukong shows very clearly Valve are selling a lot of Steam DecksEnglish3·1 year agoWhile I would love that, I really can’t imagine valve being able to handle the logistics and driver support that would come with that endeavor.
The deck still has a lot of bugs, such as touch scrolling being broken if you try to scroll down in your library a few pages.
I can’t imagine valve handling “user has put the console in sleep mode, detached the console from the egpu dock, and woken it from sleep” without bugs
I’ve never ridden an analog one but I’ve heard people say that the electric ones are easier
It took me about 3 hours to ride it and about a month to ride it decently
I’m genuinely curious how you could have read that and thought they was serious
