Hi Marty, thanks for your videos, very informative. I have been eying the Veteran for a while now. I currently mostly use a 16x in tight city riding, and cruise mostly on an MSP torque but don't get very good distance. I love both wheels. I wonder if a Veteran would bring me much more cruising pleasure than the MSP... Anybody have both of have tried both ? Cheers.

The Monster Pro is a niche wheel. Only someone who has multiple wheels and wants to add a long distance cruising wheel should consider the MP. IMHO. If you are trying to decide between the two for your primary wheel, absolutely get the Sherman instead of the MP. It may look suited for trails and such but it's really a fantastic paved rider.

I do have a somewhat unrelated question: how do you connect/identify the Sherman Bluetooth when trying to pair with EUC World? I've even downloaded the Veteran manual, not a mention of Bluetooth help. All apps are up to date, as well. Any tips are massively appreciated. Thank you!

I did manage to connect EUC World to my Sherman. This particular Sherman had the bluetooth designation of "LK1828" I ended up connecting to several other bluetooth addresses before finally stumbling onto the correct one via EUC World's interface. I should not have assumed it would be simple (Veteran Sherman or Electric Unicycle Model #) nor foreign (the wheel's Mandarin name or Gaungzhou/ LeaperKim name) My blunders aside, many thanks. & since connecting, I've been enjoying the functionality of EUC World on a 25 mile ride around DC this evening!

Hi Marty, Great video as always ! I tested out the Sherman for a few hundred km and the Monster pro for about 50km. I also compared the sherman and the EX. Did you notice a significant increase on range on the monster pro over the sherman ? I really felt like the Monster pro was much smoother than the sherman, and the sherman more agile. For a city use you would recommend the sherman over the Monster pro ? Regarding top speed, I haven't heard if the monster pro actually beats the sherman, do you have any info on that ?
@ElectricUnicycles

The Monster Pro provides about 10% more range. Depending on your weight that could be ~10-more miles. Sherman is certainly better for city riding, all else being equal. I believe the Sherman is still faster than the MP but we're really cutting hairs at this point.

Based on my personal experience, I think the best wheel to start with is the one you can afford. You can learn on any wheel. I've personally seen it all. I learned on the most powerful wheel that you could buy and had no regrets because I wasn't almost immediately faced with the desire to get another wheel because I outgrew the one I learned on. I've seen it time and time again that people will buy something like the V10/V11, etc. and rapidly outgrow its capabilities. Then they have to buy another $2k+ wheel. So if I were learning today and could afford the Sherman then that's the wheel I'd probably be buying.

Hello. I was curious about the Sherman... After seeing your video with the Sherman catching on fire, I was a bit turned off. You were the first show the Sherman burning. After that I've seen at least 2 more. I'm babbling but, the question is... Is that a thing that I should worry about with the Sherman? Also, do you have an opinion with regards to torque vs top speed?
@ElectricUnicycles
3 жыл бұрын
I don't think I'm aware of any Sherman's that have caught on fire. Control boards have "burned up", a generic term that we use to describe a board that has catastrophically failed. When a wheel catches fires, the remains are a charred skeleton. In broad strokes the Sherman has proven to be a very robust wheel that is reliable and does not catch on fire. Control boards have failed when pushing the wheel to extremes, but no more than any other wheel. I don't think you should worry about the Sherman. I'm not a high-speed rider so I'm always more interested in having torque vs speed. The Sherman only comes in one model though. Very high speed but descent torque for most situations. But it's not suited for extreme hill climbs - for that it's best to stick with one of the Gotway wheels.

I've got 2 Sherman and now a Monster Pro. The current cooling system design for the Monster Pro is nothing short of terrible. My wheel hovers at about 115° farenheit in cool weather, ie below 65° outside temp. As soon as I started pushing it the motherboard stays at around 135°. And if I try to ride hard like I do on my Sherman, ie lots of turns stops and accelerations? It climbs above 140° almost instantly. I'm probably going to modify my Monster Pro so the fan actually blows air across the bourd instead of blowing air out into the fins outside. But I'm waiting till smarter people figure out a good fix that i can copy. I'm very disappointed in the design choices they made with the cooling. Begode really dropped the ball with this one. Whenever I do a quarter mile (mild) hill climb my wheel overheats. It's unbelievable that they didn't think the current design was unacceptable. The worst part is it's probably an easy fix, the design is incredibly lazy. Lucky I didn't go into this expecting a good wheel. Still the cooling problems were not a flaw I was expecting. Long story short do NOT buy this wheel unless you got spare change to throw around like me. It's still in Beta testing.🙃 (EDIT) I just found out the Monster Pro can run up to 80°c or 176°F before tiltback. So I may have a bit more performance headroom than I originally thought.
@ElectricUnicycles

I obviously agree that the cooling system is lacking. It's not a surprise considering the original Monster also ran hot. As usual I think Gotway tests their wheels with 120-pound Chinese guys. Mine doesn't overheat as fast or as much as yours but my riding weight is ~175-pounds. I'm guessing that you're heavier. If I actually have real cooling issues in the summer months I'll probably add large filtered ventilation holes in the top of the shell to get fresh air in there. As it is not they are just recirculating the interior air.

This includes Inmotion, KingSong, Gotway, Veteran, Ninebot, etc. There have been a few notable exceptions (Gotway Nikola at 65-degrees). I have overheated untold numbers of wheels. There is no danger because the wheel will always aggressively tilt-back making it impossible to ride. I've ridden for extended periods of time at 75-degrees but when it gets above that you know you're pushing your wheel hard and you should probably take a break. 65-degrees and below I don't even think about it.
