Thanks for the answers! Going to read the "Anatomy of an overlean" thread now. I agree with not waiting. But with my worries specifically, I though that it might be worth it to wait this one time, in case InMotion makes wheels that are noticeably more trustworthy than other wheels. My original post was definitely way too long. I've now completely rewrote it to clearly state what I've actually wanted to ask, instead of wasting everyone's time reading it . It is way shorter now. If it won't trouble you too much, please take a look at it in its current form .

Hello! A new yet to be a rider here. My original post was way too long. I'm including it down here since I've already wrote and posted it. Please feel free to not read it at all. What I've actually wanted to ask boils down to this: Can all modern ~2000W wheels be trusted to correctly warn of being close to their limits? Only some manufacturer's? Only some specific models? None of the wheels? I understand that any wheel might overlean if the rider does something unreasonable, but I don't want my wheel to suddenly throw me off when I just softly accelerate on even ground while the wheel is not sounding any warnings. Is KS-16X specifically still not to be trusted, even if mine is going to be from a recent batch, with newer versions of board and firmware? I was actually already set on buying this wheel and wasn't going to bother the community with my indecisiveness, but that was before I've found all the reports on 16X apparentely faceplanting its riders right and left. These reports really worry me: https://forum.electricunicycle.org/topic/17803-16x-cut-off-and-repair-questions/ https://forum.electricunicycle.org/topic/16436-ks16x-cutoffoverlean-29-30mph/ The first one happens at 43-44 km/h, noticeably below the wheel's max speed of 50 km/h. The only warning that the wheel has sounded was already too late. The second one is at the max speed. The report includes a video - a perfectly flat asphalt road, rider not doing anything other than just keeping the same speed. It even apparentely was on a slight downhill, which should increase the margins a bit. The only warning that the wheel has sounded was already too late. What happened here? Do all wheels do that? Can I get a 16X and not worry about it being more of a hazard than any other wheel, or should I go for some other wheel? Thanks for reading!
