I've ridden with the sensor under the back foot for the last year and prefer it. I find that with the sensor in the front, it's easier for your foot to accidentally come up going over a bump. With the sensor in the back, you can unweight the front foot a little while still staying planted. I honestly don't understand the rationale behind riding sensor-front.

I don't care about wheels for avoiding grinding— I want them to make it easier to get around when you're not riding it.

At 25lb with an awkward shape, the OneWheel is tons of fun when you're riding it, and a huge pain when you're not. I'd love some luggage-style casters to wheel it around train stations and indoors.

@SeaP90d Tilt back? I mount by doing the following:

• Put footpads at rear of board.
• Place right foot (I ride regular) on footpad to engage.
• Place left foot on the other side and stand up

I don't think I've noticed any backwards tilting or motion; I can generally just get up and go.

I think many of these issues are solved by riding with the sensor on the back foot rather than the front. When your foot loses sensor contact, most of the time it's the front foot, whereas my rear foot stays glued to the board.

Please, for god's sake, separate out buy/sell threads from the rest of discussion. Constant posts of "brand new one-wheel for sale" or hundreds of replies on the custom fender thread are spammy and annoying.

Doesn't even need any technical work :-)

I would love to see something done to improve the carryability of the board when not riding it. When friends ask me to compare the Onewheel vs. the Boosted Board, I recommend the one wheel on every front ("it's not even a competition")....except for how heavy and ungainly it is.

It's not just the weight, though— many people carry 20-28lb bikes on transit stairways. It's just not designed in a way that affords shoulder or two-handed carrying, or with any way to roll it around. Caster wheels? A carry strap? Lightening the whole thing? I don't know what the solution is, but if I could have one thing in Gen2, it would be a better way to bridge the distance from the subway to the street.

That happened to me before, and I realized the issue is that the board doesn't like to be turned on unless it's flat on the ground with the non-sensor side down. Is there a chance you switched it on when it was vertical?

pm'd if it's still availabe
