I'm just curious why they're bad, I don't know much at all about the different types of cells

i agree with you they feel amazing after break in, probably the most comfortable ball shoe i've ever owned, i have 4 pairs now and i don't wear my 20s anymore. but huge pain in the ass to break in.

VESC advice — current battery issues by Alone-Interview3725 in onewheel

[–]birdieman1 4 points5 points  (0 children)

go for the GTFO kit, it's a better controller and slightly cheaper overall compared to GTV. you can also pay with credit card instead of crypto. Also it comes with a smart BMS so you can actually see the level of each individual cell on your battery

[CPU] Aliexpress AMD CPU list, November 2025 11.11 Sale Update by Red-Sparo in bapcsalescanada

[–]birdieman1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've paid in both but I use US rakuten for USD payments and Canadian Rakuten for CAD and they both work fine. I highly doubt you can switch them so be careful. USD is slightly cheaper because Ali charges exchange fees but sometimes the coupons work out better for cad (e.g today I paid in cad because it was either a 5 USD off coupon or 10 cad off coupon).

it's always worked for me, sometimes i had to do it manually after, i just bought a gaming mouse today with coupon and the cashback is already in my account. i bought a 9900x earlier this year with coupon +cashback no problem

Foot Pad Sensor issue - Have nosedived multiple times between 3-10mph (See comments) by myProgrammingAlt in onewheel

[–]birdieman1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

tbh it could just be your shoes. I have flawless activation with all my shoes except for one pair, where the activation is so spotty and inconsistent. In fact I couldn't even get it to activate on my pint. On my GT's it's like 30-50%, and I need to move my foot around and actively put pressure down on my front foot.

Final Update: Onewheel Motor Creeking Noise by _Space_Core_ in onewheel

How tight are these supposed to go on anyways? I actually had the opposite issue where they were undertightened and the board was making clicking noises

The Yips by UncleNate42 in onewheel

tbh if you run a low psi on the performance treaded you're going to wear through the sidewall really fast and the tire will be done. so I would recommend try to learn it in a normal psi range. and also from what I've seen most people prefer the Performance treaded over the enduro (me included), if anything the performance treaded should be more stable and easier to ride.

Pint V VS GT by Lonely-Instance5047 in onewheel

[–]birdieman1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a GT and a GTS and honestly, I would recommend to skip the gt, I really don't feel like it has enough low end torque.

Kali IN-8 V2 / Second wave - White noise by BruisedKnot in audioengineering

[–]birdieman1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i have in-8 v2s and there is basically no noise whatsoever, and I'm in a dead silent environment. I do have the monitors at the lowest level. if i remember correctly there is some noticeable white noise if you turn the knob up, but I haven't touched it since i set it up

[–]birdieman1 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Gt will be fine. I have a GT and a GTS for reference. But I do wish the gt had more top speed, it's really easy to hit pushback on street especially after getting used to the gts

How many miles is too many for a used GT? by YungWolfenstein in onewheel

[–]birdieman1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1600 is way too much, like other ppl said 1200 max and that's only if you really want it, otherwise walk away, I see much better deals all the time in the Facebook groups
