S18 comfort, agility, and nimbleness

Apologies if this info has been covered in the megathread...

I am considering buying an S18 and wonder if any owners have opinions on its agility and nimbleness, especially compared to say the 16X. The reviews praise the S18's agility and turning ability, compared to the other suspension wheel V11. But it's significantly heavier than the 16X -- does it lose some of the 16X's nimbleness? Is it harder to wind or carve turns, change direction quickly, etc? I ride off-road a lot so I'm really interested in the suspension, but I wonder if having it sacrifices some other qualities?

I changed the "18S" in the title to "S18" because there is an old King Song 18S wheel model.

Also it's very much appreciated that you make your own topic like this for a specific question instead of cramming everything into the S18 megathread:thumbup: Feel free to post a link to this topic into the megathread, too.
