Unbihexium Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 If these specs are true then it's only a little behind the Hero in terms of top speed but with more battery. Likely similar torque too. If this is what KS announces tomorrow then they will easily win this gen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

itsmark Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 No details on a trolley handle. I hope there is one. Also, the inner fender looks awfully close to the tire. Please tell me this wheel can fit the standard off road tires too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtlasP Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 (edited) Wow, the snippets in the teaser photos looked so promising and then the render in that video looks super cheesy--like it was made by nerf or lazer tag in the 80s/90s. Here's hoping it looks better in person than in the renders. Edited August 25, 2021 by AtlasP 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tawpie Posted August 26, 2021 Share Posted August 26, 2021 (edited) too heavy for me to lift into the trunk probably, guess I'll have to ride it everywhere. Edited August 26, 2021 by Tawpie 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks pretty far forward, I wonder how that affects balance. Overall I'm impressed by the specs of the wheel but I don't know how I feel about the design. I think I'll have to agree with @div, It looks gundam like. And what's with the purple? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post jimjam.nyc Posted August 26, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted August 26, 2021 I get worried with all of these over engineered moving parts and all. The specs look good, the ideas put into play all look to be great quality of life updates. but the render looks a bit cheeseball and even a bit bulky. Looking fwd to seeing the actual wheel, and even to know if they are doing any software stuff like inmotion and the v12 After getting the latest firmware on my v12 I am really enjoying the ability to shape the feel of the ride. I really think it's something the other manufactures should look to adopt. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

enaon Posted August 26, 2021 Share Posted August 26, 2021 (edited) Very nice, 4p setup, smart bms, I was not holding my breath to be honest, but this looks like a real next gen euc.

Popular Post mrelwood Posted August 26, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted August 26, 2021 (edited) I really hope that they would surprise the whole community with a killer 18XL quality wheel. That’d really be something! 2 hours ago, jimjam.nyc said: After getting the latest firmware on my v12 I am really enjoying the ability to shape the feel of the ride. I really think it's something the other manufactures should look to adopt. Even just the riding modes on the V11 have made me appreciate the adjustability so much that I don’t think I can ever go back to the traditional 3 modes only. I can only imagine how nicely the V12 can be fine tuned to one’s liking! Edited August 26, 2021 by mrelwood 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post ..... Posted August 26, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted August 26, 2021 (edited) Marketing and design isnt my worry. Build standards and price are. I want to be impressed but remain reluctant. I'll be waiting and watching how it goes for those with money to toss at the gamble. Lord I hope theres some REALLY picky and pessimistic people with reviews coming. Maybe next spring it'll be about that time.... @mrelwood a killer 18L last revision, quality wheel. You know, the design with proper cable mangement and internal battery box protection. With upgraded trolley and pedals. For build quality, I think the 18L set the bar. Maybe not in specs nowadays, but man that build is great. Edited August 26, 2021 by ShanesPlanet 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gon2fast Posted August 26, 2021 Share Posted August 26, 2021 I hope it is not another $3k+ wheel. If it is in the $2500 range I can talk my wife into it (xmas/festivus & 2022 birthday/father's day present LOL). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
