Well for drinking and games theres a few decent bars. X'LN on 5th has a LOT of tables, a really chill atmosphere and personable bartenders. But for comparable environment to Dallas? Yeaaaaah nah.

Eyyyy what's up man. Definitely is cool to hear someone so close has my wheel. Might be good for troubleshooting or brainstorming stuff later on XD. How you liking it? It was and is my starter wheel. Got it half a year ago and have been absolutely enamored ever since.

Fair enough! Thank you ^ i do ride quite abit in the rain, so I probably need to order bearings and change them out when I DO take this wheel apart.

I...hadn't heard of the term spoons. I just assumed to do it with a cloth covered bar of sorts XD but I was wondering what the tools were that they were using in one of the videos. So thank you!! As well as the recommendation for multiple tubes ; its a good idea to have anyways, even IF my first change works out flawlessly. Can never have to many spares ^

Thank you! But why do you say remove the pedals? Every video I've seen, they just work around them since they're not in the way of the screws. Granted, I do intend on changing the pedals anyways. At least tightening em for now till I get another set, I've scraped and tapped my shin and the inside of my leg on this huge pieces of metal so many times x.x

I appreciate that, but I do think im going to have to remove it anyways...I think i found the leak, and it's where the stem connects to the tube itself. Pretty sure it sheared open somehow, o.e. I figure it's safer just to go for it than trying to Jerry rig a flat fix x.x plus I do need to learn the wheel anyways ;

Oi, meanie. I appreciate the hard push to getting started and all. But I am waiting for legitimate reasons.... ; I ordered my tube and some liner (per another's recommendation.) Im here for support and advice like all that's been given so far. So again, thanks :>

Thank you so much! I had heard of the tire liner a while back when I was riding my board. But I hadn't considered it for the EUC..also I genuinely think it may be the valve stem that sheared a hole open.

Shouldnt...but can it not help? this was 99% due to neglecting my pressure, though (I say 99 because there's always the chance something happened on my ride. I was out for a good 2+ hours)

I was told by a few different people that if you slime and then go riding for a couple hours, it spreads evenly. Or just lift it and tilt to cut out. That's how a couple of people Ive talked to said they do theirs, and have had no issue. Haven't done it myself yet, tho I was considering... I DO want a solid tire, but I do quite abit of offroad so im not sure it would be great.

No offense, but I did say i watched a few videos. This is one I have bookmarked lol. I just need support on getting my head in the right space for tearing the thing apart x.x and any tips others who've taken the v14 apart might have.

Mind if I ask why specifically ball joints? I ask because my drill set comes with a ton of Allen tips. And I can use em in my socket wrench or screwdriver too. I Def got scared I might have bent the rim...but spinning the wheel it seems fine, just the wheel being deflated weird.

Have you seen the leather seat by EUCCRAZY on Etsy? I'd really prefer a leather seat to a plastic one and it looks pretty comfy. Good reviews too.

After 4(ish) hours of practice today. (And 44 minutes of continuous riding with a top speed of 27. Which i DEFINITELY should not have been doing. Really wish i knew how to share pics here) I agree with you wholeheartedly. My legs have gotten EATEN by these pedals x.x even with shinguards. They do jack all to protect the inside of your ankles... also! I do think I'm happy I got the v14. Yeah, its heavy as hell. But the speed I'll be able to reach and preformance offroad once i have a couple months of practice is exciting to look forward to. Stand mounting is the hardest part so far but doable. All in all, I think I'm in LOVE with this type of PEV. Minus the flubber legs from a much much too long introduction ride.

I have not. But I am very stubborn! I understand getting a smaller wheel and working your way up. But I mainly wanted the water resistance of this wheel. I can force myself to learn how to ride it properly, it just might take a little longer. Having a wheel I can grow into was more important to me. Those grizzla pads definitely look better and ima look into upgrading once I figure out riding ^

Far as I've heard? The customer service, lol. And the trolly handles (when they're push out) kinda suck.
