Popular Post mrelwood Posted April 5, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted April 5, 2021 I’m having a hard time taking it as a KS leak. While it does have some familiar KS traits like the near identical trolley handle system of the S18, why does the image have an Italian multi-brand distributor on the sidepads? I say image and not a photo, since the tire makes me quite certain that it’s just a 3D rendered image. It could even be just something the distributor came up with as a suggestion to KS for all we know. And here we go again with the “20 inch tire“... Is it 20” as in two inches larger than the S18 rim, or an inch larger than the MSX rim, or is it like the Sherman/EX rim? You know that they are all the same size, right? S18, V11, MSX, EX, EX.N, and Sherman all have a 14” rim that fits a 18x3” tire, or it’s motorcycle equivalent 2.75-14. Calling some of them 18”, some 19” and some 20” makes absolutely zero sense. There aren’t even any actual 20” bicycle tires available that would make sense for an EUC. And if they’d be using a MC tire that says 16” on the side, fitted on a 16” rim, how come they suddenly call it 20”? Nope, even if this turns out being an actual leak of KS’s next product, it’s still just an 18” wheel. Which is all good, because it’s the best size for a multi-purpose long distance EUC anyway. Everything doesn’t have to get bigger all the time. Boy did this fuel up a rant! Sorry about that... I hope it was at least entertaining. Even if very slightly. *sigh* 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrelwood Posted April 5, 2021 Share Posted April 5, 2021 (edited) These are the images that go around. Notice how they are completely different designs? Edited April 5, 2021 by mrelwood Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
null Posted April 5, 2021 Share Posted April 5, 2021 (edited) Agreed about the size. If it is a 18x3 the body doesn’t look big enough for batteries to be an interesting alternative to the S18. Edit: the two different images could be two models, it’s the same design language. Could just be someone having fun or the seller profiting though.

mrelwood Posted April 5, 2021 Share Posted April 5, 2021 That too. And if that is the pedal height before a rider compresses the suspension, it’s either going to compete with the super low pedal height of the Tesla, or the non-existent suspension travel of the EX. Maybe even both. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These photoshopped images even look really shitty. I'm sure @Rehab1can create a much better one! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simply_Striking Posted April 5, 2021 Share Posted April 5, 2021 I don't see where 2700wh batteries would go... That makes me believe this is a fake. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indeed.. or that the 2700Wh batteries are fake info; a few weeks ago some YouTuber made a poll about what people wanted, the results made it straight to the rumour mill as "facts"..

Daniel-Son Posted April 5, 2021 Share Posted April 5, 2021 If it’s a fake, Kingsong needs to hire the creator of this rendering! It’s pretty Hot looking! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unventor Posted April 5, 2021 Share Posted April 5, 2021 One will recall the pictures of KS16X when it was launched. A bit later we got to see prototype that neven came to be. That is the center piece of this aprils fool pic. I am surprised so few picked that up. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't recall there was any view of the handle that looked like this. I'll try to digg it up. edit: For ref Here are the Rockwheel renders that probably inspired the 16X: it has the same tapered outer shape. (Looking good, early 2018) edit 2: Oldest 16X renders I can find, they are fairly close to final on the handle.. The "purple light" renders are the same 3D.

jimjam.nyc Posted April 5, 2021 Share Posted April 5, 2021 (edited) There are a few things that look off on the pic. Some parts of it look a bit out of whack. The shark 20 font looks a bit odd. Even the back fender looks a bit off. I am not claiming fake, because if KS is working on a 20in suspension wheel, this is prob not far off from what it may look like. I sort of expect kingsong to show something soon. Maybe very close after inmotion pulls the rest if the curtain off the v12.

If I recall right I found it on a Russian forum. Some things just glue on my mind others things not so much (I am silly stupid at names, music and film titles).

gon2fast Posted April 6, 2021 Share Posted April 6, 2021 I would buy this at top dollar if KS or someone else can figure it out... and add a roll cage. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sumako Posted April 7, 2021 Share Posted April 7, 2021 On the OverWheel FB Page: OW SHARK 20 Overwheel will get its wheel in 2022?????? 2500 W-2700 Wh-20 inc. Does this sound like the wheel is King Songs? Are OverWheel and King Song the same company? Release date shows 2022. Is that when KS planned to release a 20” wheel? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
