    I have ridden mine 1000kms. Bought it used at half price for what it was going for new. Only had 200kms on it. Good second wheel to my ex30. Stock pads are comfy but you come off the pedals all the time as you are not locked in. Fine fun little wheel that I can put in my trunk unlike my Ex30. Speakers are good. Lighting is great for night rides. Overpriced as new but for what I paid great buy. Plus you can check the battery with the smart BMS app to make sure it is fine. Game changer for used wheels.

    Why did I purchase this wheel?
    1. First and foremost - weight: 32 kgs. Any comparable wheel weighs around 40 kgs. I really don't want to carry a heavy wheel around. Even 32 kgs is way too much. Inmotion Adventure is better, but again, it weighs 39 kgs and costs substantially more.
    2. Pre-installed pads. Yes, you heard me correctly. I am not into researching, buying, and experimenting with extra pads; I don't have time for this. I just want to ride. Also - I am pretty sure the S19 can and will fit custom aftermarket pads, i.e., 3D printed. They will just be attached in the same way as the original ones. I really don't understand why everyone complains about this. I think someone said this with the first demo unit and now everyone just repeats it without thinking about it. (yes I get it that you can't use the universal ones)
    3. Seat included in the package. Again, I am not into researching, buying, and attaching some aftermarket seat to my wheel with a tape. This one comes with one in the box.
    4. Great power & range for a wheel of this weight.
    5. Universal tire pre-installed. Again - I am not into replacing a tire, I just want to ride. This tire is ok in the city and ok for the trails. It does not excel in either, but is good enough for both. Absolutely great for me.
    6. Good suspension.
    What I hate?
    The constant color-changing LEDs. I hate them. I heard they can't be turned off. Maybe some future firmware/app update will solve this but until then, I will probably cover them with some tape.
    Price is also good - $2360 excluding tax (from EU stock)

    Excellent review Jimmy! I've had my eye on that wheel for a while now and glad to hear it's not a toy like a lot of people have claimed. I've owned nine wheels and the S18 was my favorite even though others performed better in other respects so glad to see it's getting an update of sorts. ***Interested to see what the range test would be on the 40T cells especially as compared with the stock cells.

      It's a great all around wheel. You'll definitely want a different wheel if you are looking for a jumper or off road specific wheel. But, if you are looking for a complete wheel that is good to go without needing to accessorize, the S19 would be a great choice.

    I really like the s19, i haven’t begun to euc yet. The good t40’s, body panels, speakers, decent speed, great range, and appearance. Needs and mods, plates hitting the body needs bumper protection, 70 lbs is acceptable but not fun carrying up staircases. It’s great beginner wheel but body guards are sorely needed as beginner damage will happen and such a nice designed body will be damaged.

  • @mikebikekite1
    @mikebikekite1 Рік тому +4

    A fair review though I'm not sure why you call a fairly expensive, 37mph wheel, a beginner wheel. How often do you ride that fast? For many of us we just use our wheels as our daily transport, I don't ride off road or down stairs. I don't need speakers as I hate annoying others with my musical tastes. I also don't want a unicycle that looks like a Christmas tree - I just want a decent front and rear light like the V11. Can drivers see that rear light on the road at night? Did you manage to test the real range?
    It does amaze me that all wheels don't have adjustable pedals by now and that trolley handles are so hit and miss between wheels - perhaps reviewers should do a shop at the supermarket as part of their tests? It also worries me that something has broken so early on in your ownership of the wheel - I just want to ride my wheel and not be replacing bits of plastic or parts of the suspension. How long do suppliers keep spare parts for? Maybe also drive in the city at night and see whether the lighting, front and back, is adequate.

      @@freshlycharged its a really good wheel i got to test it out here in Puerto Rico and i love everything about it except the price and topspeed, im just saying it would of been the best wheel if it go 40+mph, its sad to see a begode nikola 100v older wheel with lower wattage motor 1900w to be exact, offers way more performance than this, More torque more top speed 43mph, its hard to buy ks s19 wheel at that price, cool it has good audio sistem and nice screen display very good suspention but lacks top speed. For the price i rather get a commander mini or begode extreme. Wouldnt it be safer if it had more speed people dont really need to go 45mph, but at 35mph on a 45mph wheel it would be hard to cutout unlike 37mph tops at 35mph ur a the edge of cutout.
