Ngl I'm definitely more of a fan of riding my wheel rather than cleaning it too, though where i am it doesn't rain much and when it does, its very subtle, so it makes muddy water rather than cleaning. very interested in seeing the weight and power of the wheel with all that has been said, that suspension is also intriguing hope its durable.

i can see the pros of a more covered wheel but i see more cons, and we can always put mudguards on a more exposed wheel, exposed wheels also help for wheel cleaning and is inherently lighter.

one practical thing they overlooked is to leave the tyre to be as exposed as possible, this acts like a protective barrier, specially for newbies and when you are practicing tricks on the wheel and it goes by itself, at least a bit of the front and back would be really practical. a shell covering those parts means the shell is going to take the impact instead of the tyre.

By the proportions of those pedals compared to the wheel/tyre, i don't think its a 16" tyre, seems to be a 14" or less. I would prefer a 16" tyre on a wheel like this, its a good compromise between portability/stability/nimbleness, but the 14" seems to be working fine for the Falcon so there is that too. I also prefer inconspicuous looks for a practical wheel like this, that way employees/security don't give it a second look when i get it into stores, my 16xs is perfect for that.

Thanks for the review Ronin!, the presentation is also very enjoyable, i dont know the difficulties of reviewing a recently released wheel, i guess the availability and time with the wheel are limited, did you have a chance to test the range?, it seems to me like an ideal high performance commuter in a small city with great versatility for almost everything including offroad, if its an energy efficient wheel that gives good range and good safety margin for overpower and overspeed, that would round up the package for me. I remember they mentioned in the release stream, that the motor was a "high efficiency c32", i dont know what they meant by that.
