TGL Posted January 20, 2020 Share Posted January 20, 2020 17 hours ago, Flyboy10 said: Did you purchase the wheel like this or convert it? Were you throttled in v1.00? For me it's not a pain to downgrade but I really like the silence and new light settings. I don't go on long enough rides to have the thottling affect me to much. That and I'm used to the small battery on my 100v MSX I just bought the 2200w KS18XL 2 weeks ago. It came with firmware 1.0 and it worked beautifully and I never experienced throttling before the update. I charged to 100% and went for a ride today. I can confirm that since the update to 2.0 the warning beeps do not work anymore for some reason. I tried setting the warnings multiple times with different values without luck. This greatly affects my riding confidence because now I could get the random tilt-backs without a warning at any time especially bellow 50% battery. Where did you get the tuning software? I guess I'll write to ewheels.com to see if they could assist. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joker10 Posted January 21, 2020 Share Posted January 21, 2020 My wife likes the wheel now. When I go to her work place she asks me if I rode the wheel. She tells any patrons who haven’t seen it and they will come out and watch when I leave. She didn’t like it before I bought the first one. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm actually glad they don't share our fixated interests; in a way I think it broadens our perspective of things. I jump into the rabbit hole every time I find something new and interesting, and my girlfriends dead-empty eyes makes me realize that this might not be the most important thing in the world:) 44 minutes ago, Joker10 said: My wife likes the wheel now.

Popular Post GoldenOne Posted January 25, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted January 25, 2020 (edited) So I updated my wheel last night and WOW what a difference! Pedals feel so much stiller, so much more torque!! I did find myself approaching max speed a lot more easily though, so be careful Update Process: - Updated using kingsong app on android, sat spinning for 15 minutes and did not finish. - Turned off the wheel then back on again. Wheel seemed to function fine but the LEDs were going bonkers. - Updated using the "EUC World" app with no issues. Took about 3 mins.Observations: - Firstly, WOW so much more torque!!!! The wheel feels much stiffer and more responsive overall. - Much less foot-fatigue on my way home than I usually get. - Motor is MUCH quieter. Not silent, but much quieter than previously. - The pedals seem to stay flatter through turns than previously (where they would dip forward a little). So need to adjust. previously I would automatically expect the pedals to dip slightly, but because they did not, I ended up pressing down with my toes more and the wheel almost came out from under me. It really is like having a different wheel. Absolutely loving it so far, but certainly need to get used to the new firmware a little as a few muscle-memory things might need to be re-programmed Edited January 25, 2020 by GoldenOne 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post UniVehje Posted January 25, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted January 25, 2020 I found the limit on 18XL (2000W 2.0) acceleration. Battery: 38 % at rest, probably very low during my extreme acceleration Volts: 71 at rest 45 km (28 miles) and 3 hours of riding before the incident Temperature: +1C (33F) Speed: 42,5 km/h (26,5 mph) I was on the last straight before gettin home. Ground uneven sand path that was frozen. Very good grip. I was riding very hard for all day and enjoying strong accelerations. I wanted to have one more go as the path was straight and empty. I pushed really hard but nothing that I hadn’t done before. I started at maybe 20 km/h and got up to 42 km/h in a matter of meters. I was doing a superman acceleration and hit a couple of bigger bumps. I felt I’ve gone too far as the wheel didn’t follow as quickly. I was already in an extreme Michael Jackson position when I felt a little pedal dip and went down. I’m ok, nothing really hurts. My wheel is ok too, just scratches. I think the Very cold batteries at this point dipped too low to support that kind of leaning. Remember to keep it chill below 50 %. This new responsive feel is too addictive. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael D Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 Updated to 2.0 today and took a test drive. I didn't like it. The wheel is much more active now and tries to adjust all the time. When I turn sharply, the pedals tilt back slightly. Same when carving. Anyone else experiencing the same thing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like you need to recalibrate. .... also though check the 16X Issues thread, at the end the conversation continues from people having what sounds like a similar problem.

Turning sharply makes the pedals tilt back. This way if the pedal scrapes, it will be your heel that hits first and not your toe! Look at any veteran rider's pedals and you'll see why they made this change. The wheel should be more active/responsive. The tiltback while turning is weird at first but I like that better than tilting forward while turning.

The pedal tilting is definitely more active in the 2.00 update. The tilting is consistent and predictable imo, which has made adjusting to it a fairly easy process. Imo, once you get used to it, it feels very intuitive and enhances the riding experience. The pedal tilting makes sense because the sharper the turn, the less likely you are to be going fast.

Yeah, I feel the same effect. I calibrated carefully. Definitely active adjustment. I kind of like it. Sometimes its annoying when carving, but at slow speed its so fun to turn sharply. Feels like precision control. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hm i don't have any tilting, not in sharp turns or when carving. I only calibrated once on 0 after the update. Pedals are rock solid like on my 16X. Before the update my XL was doing all the tilting, in sharp slow turns etc. what really annoyed me a lot, even after many calibrations it was still tilting, but now pedals are as stiff as a board.

Joker10 Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 I too noticed the pedals tilting back, almost busted my rear end twice getting used to it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seage Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 Ive gotten used to the tilt. Its more noticable on mine because i was stubborn and calibrated to 0.8 degrees forward as when i had it perfectly level, i basically lived on my heels. It tilts a bit more back now, but it forces me into a more active stance when I'm riding hard, and ive gotten used to it. I do enjoy how fast it is to level out though. I can predict what the wheel is gonna do pretty well which allows me to ride faster with confidence. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
