    Did I hear that correctly... adjustable angle for the tilt cutt-off??? WOW. People in the community have been asking for that since... forever. Can it possibly be that one of the manufacturers is ACTIVELY listening to the community? Things like this, the ergo co-development with Kuji, and the pre-production feedback that turned into a laundry list of tweaks that they responded to and publisized in their production unit would point to... YES. That's huge.

      Can you explain to newbie what is tilt cutoff and why would I adjust it? Tried to google it but haven't found "for dummies" explanation. Just ordered KS S18 btw 🥳

    • @judgesfiveeight
      @judgesfiveeight 4 роки тому +6

      @@RussianCthulhu On all EUCs, there is an angle (side to side) at which the motor will cut-out. So that, in the event of a crash the wheel does not continue to free-spin on it's side or continue to propell itself along for potentially great distances in a wide arc. The problem here is, that with a model so well suited to off-road courses, you sometimes have an emabankment of dirt that you would like to traverse at high speed - which could bring the wheel into a nearly horizontal position, parallel to the ground. Classically, you would surely expeinece a cut-out in such a position. With this model, you can now adjust that cut-out angle to better accomodate such obstacles.

    Once again top notch review which, contrary to a lot of people's negative thoughts on the S18, ie that its flimsy....... Your review has definitely sunk that old boat. I have an 18xl, that thing is a tank so far I've had two falls at well over 25mph, and the wheel took a real egg beating tumble... and every time I just pick it up, dust it off and go.... yeah there are some serious gouges in it but thats all, it ain't missed a beat in nearly 2 years, so I suppose your findings shouldn't surprise me.
    Keep up the great work, look forward to more content from you.......

      1. my ride style tends to cause more high speed wobble since I am not symetrical, but I have gotten use to it and knows how to dampen wobble when it happens. 2. v11 is more well rounded, better built quality and better light, kick stand and other convinience features.

    Another great review Hsiang! You're killing it at the moment!!
    Today my off-road trail speed is determined by my strength, condition, and technique. I have to slow down if I can’t maintain control over the bumps, and the lack of control is mostly due to lack of strength or condition, and every time I increase my condition or gain strength, I can ride faster in rougher terrain. Even though I can still get stronger and improve my condition, there is a limit to my strength and endurance, which means I’ll never be able to go silly fast over bumpy terrain. With suspension, I could go silly fast, and that worries me because I’m an idiot:)
    I enjoy the connection between my physical ability and the speed I’m able to achieve, the exercise I get, and the fact that I won’t be able to hurt myself too bad in the speeds I’m able to ride at. I will buy a wheel with suspension someday, but I hope this isn’t the end of none suspension wheels, because I want both.

    • @OWGAC
      @OWGAC  4 роки тому +1

      I think suspension opens up a different level of chanllenges that can be tackled for everyone. if you're able to ride a blue mountain bike trail, now you can train to tackle a black trail where in it would have been impossible to do before. I am not quite sure if any one can ride full speed down a hard core mountain bike trail just yet, may be.

    • @Ylte

      @@OWGAC One idea might be for EUC manufacturers to work on battery packs that can easily swap out without requiring tools. Maybe like the batteries on a cordless drill. Slot in, snap on, plug in, slide on, click on, clip on, etc. The possibility then opens up for an additional charged battery to be carried in a backpack. A cumbersome idea though, carrying a weight around.

      For me the smaller battery - hence lower weight is the biggest adventage of th KS18. Lifting the Z10 to get it on the train or lift up the stairs is a pain in the ear so I am rather looking towards something lighter. The only thing about the Inmotion though it is it brgight front light. Winter is approching and it will be a significant adventage for half of the year to know whete you are going when it gets dark early. If only there was a KS18 with brighter light... or Inmotion with smaller battery :)

      Well, I am not sure. Yes the EX has a lot more battery but it is also $3200 and weight 86lbs, plus with that lower peg I am very skeptical that you’ll be able to really ride it off road. Also, I have to keep reminding ppl, having a suspension isn’t just about off road, it improves grip even if you are on smooth pavement, its like comparing a 4x4 to a 2 wheel drive!

    • @BOWBLADEGOD

      Hsiang that is true but you have a monster so you have paid $3000 before. Also it’s really only $1000 but the specs compared to the s18 is three times more. 24 inch wheel. Three times the battery. Built in trolley handle so no need to worry about the weight. Also has a seat. Has the speed 3200w hollow motor the next generation in motors. Yes it’s more expensive but you are getting 3 to 4 times more in speed,power,range I think it might be worth it. Time will tell.

      @@BOWBLADEGOD the point is the use case. The s18 seems to be designed with offroading in mind. My friends and I were in the woods yesterday for about 3 hours. I was on the 18xl. We had to worry about heat more than battery. I think we came out with 87% battery. The place where this wheel shines is not a place where you need a higher battery capacity. With the v11 and even ex, they feel like they're both gonna be road wheels with suspension, hence no real grip on the v11 and the low peg on the ex. The s18 feels like a, drive got he trail and ride for hours, type wheel as opposed to a comfortable street riding/fast street wheel with suspension. At least that's my take. Because whenever I ride offroad, my wheel never dies. I run out of energy or light far before then.

    Hi Sean, another great video! Do you think if you were riding the S18 in the exact same spot and under the exact same conditions that you were riding the V11 when you crashed, do you think you would have crashed on the S18? In other words, do you think the S18 gave you more control than the V11 so much so that it would have prevented your crash? On a side note, that was wild seeing you ride with an umbrella in the rain, LOL

    • @OWGAC
      @OWGAC  4 роки тому +2

      Remember that I have ridden over that exact manhole cover with the V11 previously with out any issue either, and have done so numerous time with the S18 since (its near my home) this is why I think there were other factors, if the tire indeed blew, then it wouldn’t matter what wheel I was on, I’d likely crash jus the same on the S18 also.

    To folks hating on the battery... I get it... but, for a unit designed for off-road, technical off-road at that... more weight (battery) equals less control. However... consider this... it is likely the first of many models based upon the new suspension system/design... in other words... instead of hating on the S18... might one just look forward to the S18XL???

    • @judgesfiveeight

    Another great video. That is good to hear about the lean angle but shame we have become so used to bigger batteries. Have you thought about what would happen to your head inside that helmet if you face plant. I have because I have face planted in a full faced helmet before. I distinctly remember my face smooshing up against the front guard. Which was fine because it was the usual type with a flat surface and some cushioning. To me that bar looks like it might add some unusual imprints while letting a hole lot pain come through unabated.
