RE: I got to visit Onewheel HQ 🥰
@lia said in I got to visit Onewheel HQ 🥰:
They initially said it was a Pint hub till I said “it looks like a GT hub unless you guys have something coming soon we don’t know about”.
haha, good catch! a tanky little Pint would be fantastic!

RE: FM selling XR, Pint and GT parts (Alt. title: FM hit their head and had a personality change)
@loaffette i got the email the other day about their Pint batteries. Mine are still doing fine, but i admit i was tempted to get one just as a backup....

RE: Burning Man
@highspeeddirt i'm so old that i never read the WWW guide until we're in the Exodus line, lol. I have last year's here on my desk... my plan is to look through it for stuff that was cool LAST year, and then use that to search out the same camps and events for this year. hopefully it will come back, because that sounds fun.

RE: Burning Man

RE: Burning Man
@highspeeddirt there should be a OW rider's meetup at the burn. (maybe there is??)

RE: Burning Man
@highspeeddirt i've brought my Pint out there a couple times, but mostly i end up leaving it at home because i don't want to have to haul it in every bar or camp i hit, and i'm worried about theft. that being said, i see more and more of them on-playa every year, and i'm thinking of bringing it and riding it this year. the first half of last year was incredible for riding, i'm sure. i saw pix of ABANDONED onewheels in the mud, which... omg... if i had seen one, i would've probably nabbed it, lol
oh, and the speed limit is 5mph, not 10 -- not that apparently anyone heeds it. this year is gonna be a total shitshow of high-speed ebike wrecks, i'm sure.

RE: Help a fellow Pint owner, maybe?
@lia i'll pass it on to the person. thanks!
[EDIT]: update -- they said:
"Thank you for that advice! So I got home and I opened it all up and everything looked great, unfortunately lol. I was hoping I would see something that was obvious but it looked pristine once I got the cover off. The good news is I got it to work… The bad news is… I don't know how. I started pushing down on things just to see if anything was loose and then all of a sudden the light comes on. A couple minutes later I was doing something and the light went off and then I pushed down again and the light came back on. so I went ahead and connected everything back together and the light stayed on and I was able to ride it but now I'm worried it's going to shut off. 😬😬😬 I can't trust it to ride it rn because I can only assume I would nosedive."

Help a fellow Pint owner, maybe?
Hi all -- just saw this over on the OW subreddit (i know, i know, i swore i was going to stop reading it!), and i was wondering if anyone here had any tips or advice for this poor Pint owner. I have no idea what could possibly be going on, but i know lots of people here are very very knowledgeable about such things, so i thought i'd do them a solid and see if anyone had any ideas:

OW with a tank tread
This is kinda wacky -- haven't seen it mentioned anywhere else yet:

RE: VOW Vesc'd GT is insane!
@lia i get nervous at 15 mph -- but then i'm on an OG Pint, so at that speed nosedives become a reality very quickly, lol

RE: VOW Vesc'd GT is insane!
@lia no way on this green earth would i feel comfortable going that fast on a OW of any kind, lol

RE: Onewheel Trade In Program (Ending March 8th 2024)
Update from the comments section of the official YouTube announcement video. Someone made a rude comment about how "not even FM wants the Pints back" and they replied:
"This program doesn't include the Pint(X) platform but depending on how it goes and how useful folks find it, we could certainly see a Pint program in the future."
-
RE: Onewheel Trade In Program (Ending March 8th 2024)
i wonder if they will extend this eventually to the Pint and PintX models, and if they do, what the trade in value will be. This seems like a fair deal, honestly.

RE: FM are selling parts!
@lia wow, nice! so tempting. now i need enough coin to cover one of everything, lol.
