There is no way I can ride for hours without stepping off. Feet would die.

The tires are very stiff and could be transmitting surface impacts right into the feet. It is a very solid device. Makes sense that could be fatiguing. My tires are at 45psi as called for in the directions. The ride feels smooth but it can't be as smooth as 15psi would be. Large pavement cracks are noticeable bangs on the minipro.

Also, experimenting in the house, I think I am slightly leaned onto the balls of my feet, while going forward, instead of standing straight up more on my heels. Normally standing on my feet would put most weight onto my heel. I will have to pay attention next time and see if I am unknowingly leaning hard onto the front of my foot during a ride.

Okay, occasional breaks are the rule until they build mini pros with suspension or Wheeleez tires (fat beach tires).
