@Franko I vowed to learn, spent a couple of hours over several weeks and it just isn't happening, LOL. I can back up a couple of feet which will get me out of most situations, but actually riding like that isn't something my brain/foot muscles can handle!
FYI, the Hoosier I put on my + back in Nov 2018 . . . note the omni-directional treads, much different than the ones on @a_onekatie's Pint Hoosier.
@a_onekatie said in Bluetooth issues with OneWheel Pint:
I was told my board is functioning perfectly normally because FM do not want us looking at our phones or watches at all while riding.
Total BS from @Future-Motion . . . no one is forcing you to look at your phone and there is no way for the battery and speed alarms to go off if the phone is not connected. Not to mention the ride reporting and logging. IMO, they don't want to pay to fix all the Pints if they admit there's a problem. All I can say is that when the next model comes out with better performance, battery, construction, etc, there's no way I'll buy it if they have this issue again. I'll want that in writing before I give them my hard earned dollars! No excuse for issues like this considering how much we're all paying for these boards.
@a_onekatie That's it, I guess you have to ride switch until the tire wears out! Just looked at my Burris and the treads angle all the way across, so it wouldn't be different either way. Looking at your Hoosier, there does seem to be a difference in that the treads on each side angle opposite to meet like an arrow head, making me think there might be a "right" way. Seriously though, I doubt you'll even notice, LOL
@Franko said in Pint tire change, who’s done it?:
@a_onekatie that tire looks fantastic. i want one.
I've said it before and I'll say it again, OWs should ship with treaded tires.
@a_onekatie That looks SO awesome!
@a_onekatie you'll love the treaded tire, so much more grip, never worry about a little water or mud . . . and they last forever, I have over 2000 miles on mine and you can hardly tell!
@Jerre Yeah, could be a different issue, but if the warranty is in place and the board has the older module, I'd get it fixed anyway just to be sure.
@SlyFoxxx If you're board is still under warranty (I'm assuming an XR), consider having FM replace the controller board with the newer bluetooth module. Quite a few of us had major connectivity issues and that was determined to be the problem (it's been discussed in several threads on this forum). I know it fixed mine as it would barely connect 10% of the time when I got my board. Even when it did connect, it wouldn't stay connected more than maybe 30 seconds unless I had my phone in the lower pocket of my cargo shorts. Anyway, since they fixed my board, it connects all the time, every time, and I ride with my watch running the OW app showing battery strength, speed, and distance remaining. If you can convince FM it's a warranty issue, which I would think it is since they've fixed many boards, you'll just be without your board for maybe 7-10 days and they "should" pay shipping both ways as well.
As for the fangs, I have the originals and they've saved me twice from low speed, high acceleration nose dives. They are not a total solution, but do help in certain situations.
@Aboelter General consensus is to start with a pressure of 10% of your weight, then adjust from there. So, if you're 190, you would start with 19 psi. After that, if you want a firmer ride, add a few psi, softer, go a few lower. Hope that helps!
