wow $1500 for a used gokart tire seems a little steep from a zero feedback

RE: Onewheel + / +XR Tire

RE: Been testing the waters (pun intended) of how much I can push my badgered XR. Today I accidentally went deeper than I wanted.
I guess it's time I ordered a badger kit, any tips on DIYing a waterproofing job?

RE: How long has your XR battery lasted?
@HanahsDax said in How long has your XR battery lasted?:
@OneDan Current mileage is 5462 on O.E.M. battery.
That's promising.
at 1800 I notice a 10%+range drop as well as more surging on hills or acceleration (4209); but I do a lot of top charging with the hyper (seldom ride below 50% any more) and do overnights with home charger often and it sits at 100% for days sometimes, chi battery in my future cause I want that extra performance from the higher volume battery. -
RE: Flight Fender and Duck Feet
at 58 my only air time is in snow, I can't lift on the board much with it as it is a softer plastic that flexes so my foot will come out in a nosedive; made out of a hardboot tongue, I beefed it up a bit since that pic so I can pull up on it in a heelside carve increasing control, the cut you see is a flex slot in the boot tongue
It works great to keep my foot on the sensors over curb drops, roots, potholes etc.
I'd put one on my pint but the smaller foot pad doesn't work as well for positioning and I only ride it while the xr is charging anyway.

RE: Flight Fender and Duck Feet
@Swinefeaster I'm not comfortable with flightfin pigeon toe or duckfoot, so made my own custom toe hook

@blkwalnutgrwr with balls tha... I mean, batts that big she must be a bit top heavy?

RE: Security and Anti-Theft Features.
the hypercharger is big, it will not fit in my cargo pocket where the regular charger does, and at least a pound heavier

RE: Security and Anti-Theft Features.
@Glyph stopping to reset parameters makes sense to me but an on the fly toggle would be cool. I also like custom for switch practice, (+3 -0- +7)very mission like but I like it better flat. my plaid mode (+5 +3- +11) feels like delirium with less jumpiness and trail mode(+4 +2 +10) for slower single track, I just like to tinker

RE: Security and Anti-Theft Features.
@Glyph said in Security and Anti-Theft Features.:
@Lia Some of it's preference, for sure, but here's the way I conceptualize it.
Delirium: Torquier at the low-end, quickly and aggressively (and this is what "aggressive" means in this context - "sharply") corrects the board back to level when it dips down. This is what makes it so good for offroad applications, it keeps the deck more level and easier to stand on, and the extra torque is there for sand-slippage, root-climbing, etc. This is also why it eats more battery. I suspect Delirium may be slightly less prone to nosedives at lower speeds due to this torque.
Mission - less torquey, brings the board back to level more slowly and gently (giving it that floaty loose feel and allowing the rider more control on how quickly to level out). Makes it harder to stay atop on rough ground, but eats less battery. I suspect Mission may be slightly less prone to nosedives at higher speeds, because it has a little more power headroom left over to accelerate and get the board back under the rider if the nose dips down too far.
with custom I can get delerium response but tone down the jumpiness,
or mission surfiness with a bit more acceleration
