😄😄

I am unfortunately not an official Gotway hill tester 😜 so between work and getting shots, haven't had much time to get online here 😢... all in due time.

But so far, IMHO the skinny is, you guys who had high hopes for this 16X I think won't be disappointed... minus one kink that I'm wanting to chalk up to early firmware (but would suck I think if still persisted for the actual production model).

What is the kink, can you please let us know ? Or you gonna leave us in suspense until you release the video review :popcorn:

@houseofjob I'm planning to come out for the 16X demo tomorrow. The weather forecast is looking Ok so far. Incidentally, I can't RSVP on the E-Riders site due to my lack of an active FB account. I sure hope this won't preclude me from participating...

The prerequisite for test riding is any one of the following;

  • RSVP using an active FB account
  • Sign a contract / waiver (in blood)
  • Offer up your first-born...

Taken from your company’s playbook?

Well, none of the details have changed, so the meeting flyer up top is still valid.

Only reason we post on FB (and I'm not a huge fan of FB) is because no other platform has a better and ubiquitous meeting invite feature.

Weird the sidewall doesn’t show the maximum load for the tire?

These are all the relevant markings. I don't think I've seen maximum load ratings for every tire I've come across, plus the real weakest link for load I think is the axle thickness + supports, and the shell integrity.

I had hope we see some comments from people who attended the demo. Maybe it is too soon?

They're probably  having too much fun trying it out to post anything :rolleyes:

Sheesh, we're not EUC forum posting robots :lol: (plus many are still riding)

I literally just got back from the demo, you know, where we do real human interaction and EUC communal eating stuff? :P (yes, yes, I get the anticipation from afar thing).... plus, the NYC ridership is not heavy on these particular forums.

I've got a long night ahead of me cutting up these demo impression videos,... *ugh* *sigh*

 

..... anyhoo.....

 

Thanks for everyone who showed up to the NYC demo today! (both pictured, and who came later)

Well it’s been 7hrs since the meet. I’m not expecting a professional YouTube video or full review or anything. 

 

Just surprised no one has uploaded a pic till now of the event.

Nope, the meet ended an hour or two ago, just the invite says 2 hours.

Again, NYC ridership really isn't on here, they're on Facebook or Telegram..... but posts will come, I assure you.

 Take your time. Believe me, I know the time-suck video editing is (I probably have 20-hours of footage in the video locker).

Glad you had a successful and rain-free demo day :cheers:

P.s. Nice blue KS18(X)L. And funny that @Hsiang brought his i5 instead of the Z10

Everyone is very excited and appreciative for all your efforts! Just don’t over extend yourself. We can wait a few more minutes. ;)
