    Marty,
    Thanks for sharing your experience with picking up your Sherman Max!
    As I mentioned before, I was a little disappointed the Max didn't get much love during eevee's demo tour, until they linked up with you for your channel and ride! Looking forward to seeing some upcoming Max content as I'm seriously considering it for my 2nd wheel!
    Be well.

      I have changed tires on my V11 and Shermax. Next time, here are the steps I’m following: put wheel in box, ship back to dealer, dealer changes wheels, send back to me. Charge me. I would never waste time changing tires on and EUC ever again. It was more difficult than tooth extraction.

    Hello Marty,
    Are you planning to do a normal range test with the Shermax? I'm very curious how it will perform compared to the other two 3.6kWh EUCs. I find it very professional and unbiased that you test them all in the same conditions. I'd just add the tire pressure, maybe you'd like to take that into account too, it plays a huge role.
    Thank you for everything you do, keep it up 👍

    My Sherman controller shorted after 2 months of use. Dumped me in the street doing 40mph. No warranty offered for me from ewheels. Looks like I’m buying parts at full price and rebuilding the wheel.. Was quite a bit to pay for a product that lasted less than 3 months..

    All wheels are different, but thus far, I've had a couple of Begode wheels and haven't had any trouble with them. I've had a Sherman Max and it has not worked right since day one. There is after-sales support, but the issues have not been resolved after several months, so Shermans may be great wheels, but so far, the one I got has been a lemon. I'm sure after-sales support happens very quickly for UA-cam content creators. However, it's a little more "challenging" for this non-influencer. When the Sherman is working, it does work well.
