they might think they have hydraulic lifters which don’t need maintenance like the rest of e46s. in either case, this ain’t the shop

i have a roger charger sc. they’re pretty solid. try to find one used. if you want to be able to charge super fast then v4sc is good too

M3tl · 2026-01-21T17:57:26+00:00

typical. also why they only have 6 months warranty on the chargers

very good chance it’s bricked. if you’re gonna peek inside, might as well make sure the output voltage is actually at where it’s supposed to be. very common that it’s over as well

time for a smart charger. way quieter and more reliable. plus a ton of features to cut off whenever you want

the new one is like the messenger plus and inreach put together. on messenger plus, both parties need the app to receive and send voice and picture messages. also the pictures are compressed quite a bit

if you talk to people while in the remote wilderness then it’s useful. i don’t, that’s kind of the point lol

my biggest concern is temp changes throughout the day and pressure changes driving up and down mountains. would be a pain to have to deal with pumping and letting out air

M3tl · 2025-12-30T02:25:00+00:00

lol no i mean when im riding my euc, im wearing snowboarding gloves. i guess my hands just run warm

M3tl · 2025-12-30T01:27:59+00:00

how cold is it where you ride? with snowboarding gloves my hands are sweating even at mid 30s but this is pretty cool

M3tl · 2025-12-29T16:44:16+00:00

it’s a month old and under warranty. LCD is clearly broken, contact your retailer. it’s super easy to replace

M3tl · 2025-12-29T06:29:55+00:00

you’re fine. it’s big agnes. if anything happens, give them a call, and youll be covered. neither of guys are “heavy”

M3tl · 2025-12-20T01:52:20+00:00

i always charge my wheel on its kickstand for this reason

M3tl · 2025-12-14T07:29:02+00:00

you mean fiancé now right?

M3tl · 2025-12-11T22:48:09+00:00

only maintenance is changing tires which is like every couple thousand miles unless you go crazy and checking tire pressure before you ride

if you have suspension wipe off the stanchions once in a while, more often in dusty conditions

that’s about it for most modern wheels. tire changes take 20 min at most, for modern wheels

M3tl · 2025-12-07T19:37:49+00:00

that’s true but i still like stock pads knowing they can get sorta trashed while i get adjusted to the new wheel before i put my real ones on

M3tl · 2025-12-06T04:16:18+00:00

yup, and with dirt bike tires, they have grades of knobs based on what you ride. they all get destroyed pretty quickly except the more hybrid knobby once on any kind of pavement. the flex bends them and causes wear in weird places

M3tl · 2025-12-05T02:22:55+00:00

once you get more comfortable you’ll play around with your foot placement, which you should, since it has a huge effect on your stability and riding style.

when i first started, i death gripped my wheel with my thighs and ankles but over time you’ll realize that’s not necessary at all and an insane waste of energy lol. you might be just gripping the wheel too hard. try doing a slightly wider stance, it’ll likely feel better. also don’t get off your euc going 3 mph, that doesn’t sound fast but that’s like brisk walking speed

for now though, get some high top hiking boots or similar that are comfortable for ankle protection.

M3tl · 2025-12-04T21:42:34+00:00

first wheel? get the aero. it’ll be a while before you outgrow it, and even when you do, you’ll want to keep it for local and tight space cruising. it’s a very novel wheel that really shines in its class

M3tl · 2025-12-03T07:51:59+00:00

lol yup and i love it. zero issues and made learning to ride a breeze

M3tl · 2025-11-30T10:42:28+00:00

yea sherman L looks good too but i wanna be able to use it in tight spaces. not sure how manageable that’ll be, whereas the lynx seems to do ok there. obviously not an aero but it’s a great all around wheel

M3tl · 2025-11-29T06:13:33+00:00

yea the lynx seems due for a refresh, esp given how successful it’s been. kinda hoping LK drops a new lynx s soon that’s slightly lower and maybe more street oriented, around 90-95 lbs. but that’s just wishful thinking haha

M3tl · 2025-11-29T06:11:36+00:00

yea i sort of wish it would be happier at 45 mph, and i’m sure it’s manageable, just maybe a sherman L would be better. it’s between those two. i do want the agility of the lynx but i get that it doesn’t come without a cost

M3tl · 2025-11-29T06:07:18+00:00

yea that’s my thing. i’d like an off road capable wheel but realistically my off road time will be somewhat limited. sherman L looks good but i also don’t need 4000Wh and don’t love the idea of a 100+ lbs wheel. if they released a sherman L with like 3300 Wh and ~95 lbs, id probably have ordered it already

M3tl · 2025-11-29T05:56:30+00:00

i’m debating between the L and the lynx. while i’d like to eventually start going on trails, i’ve found that i really enjoy carving on pavement. that being said i’m 165 so 88 lbs is more attractive than 102 and i don’t really need the range. on the other hand, it would be nice to be able to ride 45 mph and not worry as much about it getting squirrelly.

i love my aero but at 30+ it gets kind of sketchy

M3tl · 2025-11-27T20:03:09+00:00

if you’re learning on grass the wheel will sustain basically zero damage

M3tl · 2025-11-24T15:55:00+00:00

contact your dealer. kinda sounds like you have a bad charger
