Sherman low end torque

[Wgm]

Hi all, I have a preorder for a Sherman.  I am also interested in the EX.  How would you describe the Sherman's torque at low speed?  Kuji's video described it as fast off the line.  But alot of others say it has very little lowspeed acceleration and is easy to overlean at lowspeed until 20mph.

For the Sherman... Low end torque seems better with later firmware. That could be just me. I’ve not tried the other one. I certainly haven’t been able to overwhelm it.

They are crazy. It’s harder to overlean than an MSX 100v. What probably happened is they all tried the preproduction model with the pedal dipping issue and they bailed/got scared when they felt the pedals dip on hard acceleration. That problem is pretty much fixed on newer firmware. 
 

Acceleration is better than an MSX, haven’t tried the MSP models though. The pedals are longer so if you just put your foot further up on them you get freaky fast acceleration for such a big wheel. Almost on par with my Nikola.
