First Distance Ride With The Monster Pro

 Of course I already put about 800-miles on the EUCO Monster Pro, but this was my first break-in ride on my personal copy that I received last week (thanks Ray Rokni).

Chris Chaput joined me with his Monster Pro, received the same day as mine.

We journeyed up to the base of the Mt Baldy ski lifts.

I also used my newly fabricated seat which worked great. I particularly enjoy riding seated while going downhill


The ride was uneventful (a good thing). We are both a bit wary of the Monster Pro since they have an above average failure rate.

Overheating

There is no doubt that the Monster Pro runs hot. And in our particular case, when climbing the last few files where we ascend ~2000-feet, both of our wheels overheated (or would have overheated if we didn't stop) I think 5-times.

So some temperature mods are in the future for my Monster Pro.
