Lovely. Thanks. 👍
I have found some other ones too. Once I tackle it I'll confirm what works best.
Fingers crossed 😉

@puzz360 They come apart. A little fiddly but there are various videos on it.
Give this a go :)

Hi all,

Started taking the V1 apart.
2 different bearings, held in by circlips too.
6906 and 6203

Shouldn't be a problem to get them but...

My problem is the connector won't fit through the bearing. ?

Has anyone got any experience of this and can those connectors be taken apart ?

Final touch

@loaffette Nick and I thought about something like this but I've never seen PD outlets in the wild (at least in the UK). Especially any spec'd for high wattage.

I know the spec can go to 240W which is insane but other than a few premium battery banks that might give you 5-10% charge after losses it's not something you'd see a lot to make work in a pinch.

@lia thank you :) it was a bit weird for the first few minutes as I have a different tyre now as well but you feel more locked in at the back and I’m liking it so far.

Welcome to fam!
@Dnollie said :

... material people use on surfboards/paddle boards for the Onewheel grip? That rubber diamond shaped traction pad type thing?

Sounds familiar to EvoGRIP™ Diamond Stud ?
StickyFeet -- they've been trending throughout various media platforms lately. Somewhat 'next level' new solution after numerous dif griptapes, foam-pads etc.
(No personal experience, tho.)

hey, you wanna hear an idea so stupid it rolls around to being absolutely genius!?
No?

too bad

I went to Houston this past week. It was fun, and I got to ride a really cool bike path! However, I forgot my charger in Dallas.
While I was sitting in the park, waiting for my dad to pick me up from my ride, I was looking down at my phone powerbank. It has PD that could easily power a steam deck or a macbook. I then looked at my board.

Then the part of my brain that everyone wishes would stop working turned on, and I had a really cursed idea.
What if you could charge a onewheel off of USB-C PD? The idea is simple: You have a Type-C port that automatically demands 20V/the highest PD that the charger can support. You then had a DC converter that steps 20V (or whatever voltage you can pull out of your macbook/ipad charger) and step it up to say.... 75V?
Have an XT-30 plug that you can plugin GX-16, XLR, XT-30/60/90, Pint/GT, or whatever cursed plug your insanity-tinted glasses head likes to use!

Would this be useful? Probably! It's going to be ~$60 to build in parts, not counting filament cost.
I'm waiting on this for now as I have a couple projects I need to finish up.

Insert Texas not getting cold until early-December
Insert crazy texas weather

I hope to attend a really big onewheel event this year, and meet some people in the VESC community.
I'm also hoping to waterproof my board and to develop a couple cool things I've been cooking up, one of them involving a helmet addon

also, I will try not to crash again
