Gasmantle Posted September 21, 2019 Share Posted September 21, 2019 Anyone had any problems with the trolley handle on a KS16S ? I've only had my machine a week and spend more time sorting out problems than riding This time it's a broken handle, the thing just snapped clean off when lifting the machine (with the handle collapsed), i can't see any simple way of removing it so thought I'd try a repair of my own using epoxy but that's proving unsuccessful so it looks like I'll have to call the seller and ask for a replacement handle. I can't believe on a £1300 machine that Kingsong fit a cheap and nasty handle that even the Poundshop wouldn't sell - give me a V10 scorpions tail handle any day.

Dzlchef Posted September 21, 2019 Share Posted September 21, 2019 It’s a common problem and the newer black handles are stout. Easy swap and fix. I’ve done it on mine previously. Do a search and you’ll come up with a lot of “how to’s” to fix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pengloong Posted September 21, 2019 Share Posted September 21, 2019 @Gasmantle So sorry to hear about your problem with the trolley handle on your KS16. I feel for you, really frustrating as it should never happen to any wheel costing so much. I think you were just very unlucky. I know of two other riders with V8 and I can say (my opinion), they are not as robust as the KS16. I am sure that once you have your trolley handle sorted, you will have lots of enjoyment and pleasure riding your wheel, I hope so. I can confirm, after two and half years riding my KS16, touch wood, I have zero issue, trolley handle or Apps. Good luck!. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fer9001 Posted September 21, 2019 Share Posted September 21, 2019 HI fellow KS-16s rider I have my ride one year now and my trolley handle is wobily but never have any issues with it. You just have bad luck. Had a minor problem of loose screws of one pedal solved it by just tidening it. I enjoy riding my KS-16s and hope you experience the fealing of joyful riding.

Gasmantle Posted October 1, 2019 Author Share Posted October 1, 2019 Thanks guys It would appear the handle wasn't properly fitted in the first place but the seller has ordered me a replacement. I haven't yet properly looked at how the handle is removed but hopefully it's a simple matter to replace it once the new one arrives. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
