As I design 3D printed accessories this is a bummer and I will have to pay my reseller for express delivery because I don't want to wait 2 months.

Rawnei Posted May 30, 2023 Share Posted May 30, 2023 Anyone here happen to have a side-by-side photo of new and old trolley handle? I know the main difference but I want to eye the dimensions for a mount I am designing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fary86Hun Posted May 30, 2023 Share Posted May 30, 2023 What is your charging time with the standard charger? From 75 to 100 (with cell balance finished) is around 4 hours for me... As I know the maximum allowed charging current is 15A, so if I buy an other 10A charger I can use it next to my current charger, or I have to distribute the charging current between the two ports?

dycus Posted May 30, 2023 Share Posted May 30, 2023 The two charge ports don't need to have equal amounts of current on them, just don't exceed the total maximum. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WILSONEUC Posted June 2, 2023 Share Posted June 2, 2023 (edited) What is Best pad for the Sherman S for all purpose (seated riding friendly pad).???? Ive been tinkering left and right with the pads that I own and i just cant find the perfect setup for this wheel other than the Grizzla Pad originals. So far from my testing the Grizzla pad original version (smaller version) works surprisingly well and has enough width for torque, breaking and can sit down with it without sacrificing pad positioning. I recently bought and made a video on the clark pad bio-pads , again hype train made me want to buy it and even though it is an awesome jump pad/ best pad that clark has which i would give it a 5 out of 5 stars in that departmen , it is not really seated riding friendly pad at all. You can make it happen but it will require sacrificing pad positioning in favor for seated , loosing contact with the front , and needing to always split your hip just to sit down to get over the large chonkers (torque pad). MonoCustomize leather pads, they do the job but the pad is bowed out a bit, and the leather has a lot of friction/grab...which i do not like. I have not tried the clark extremes on my sherman s yet, but I have it on my master and i love it on my master. I have it just right where i want it on my master but i may have to try it out on my sherman . What are you guys using for pads on your sherman s for seated riding ?  Edited June 2, 2023 by WILSONEUC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rawnei Posted June 2, 2023 Share Posted June 2, 2023 Most pads can be adjusted to feel good riding seated (as long as it's two pieces not one big piece), but some sacrifices other things like bunny hopping capability etc, with my limited experience I feel a good compromise with Grizzla both Classic and Flow (more adjustable).

I have the Grizzla "Flow" pads and I have no issues with seated riding. I'm already used to having to open my legs wider to accommodate the pads from riding my V11 with the regular Grizzla pads.

WILSONEUC Posted June 2, 2023 Share Posted June 2, 2023 Yea i heard good things about those pads as well. Does anyone have a side by side comparison of the clark pad Bio Pads next to the Grizzla Flows (top down view)? I want to see how deep those pads are  in comparison to each other. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Rawnei Posted June 3, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted June 3, 2023 First group ride and 7 hour cruise yesterday on the Sherman S 66lb version, this thing is a beast, we did a lot of technical off-road and it performed awesome, very powerful wheel, 66lb spring worked great for me on some very tricky terrain, didn't really think about or feel concerned about the weight of the wheel it's very well balanced was easy to maneuver and throw around around rocks and roots. Very smooth feeling on pavement also, it's a powerhouse for sure. 10/10 would ride again. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Clem604 Posted June 5, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted June 5, 2023 Just came back from a pretty epic 6.5hr solo ride than spanned across 4 cities. The Sherman S was flawless, as usual, and I managed to get 136.3km's of range with 6% remaining at my riding weight (200lbs/90kg). I wanted to see if I could hit 140km's but by that time the wheel would beep at me at anything over 18km/h and I was pretty tired so went home. 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Rawnei Posted June 5, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted June 5, 2023 (edited) Did a teardown of my Sherman S, pretty easy wheel to work on overall. Fixed a squeaking noise in the waterproofing seals by replacing and properly re-greasing them with propeller grease. Added some silicone to the motor cable it was poorly done and had some gaps. Swapped motor bolts to 12.9 grade steel bolts and torqued them close to spec (I did 17Nm LK says 18Nm), also put some CorrosionX Heavy Duty on them to prevent rust as they are steel bolts will inspect them in time. Swapped to the new suspension clamps. Added some cable tape onto the gaps in the plastic suspension rails to keep dirt out as much as possible from the suspension, I have the latest rails that has the middle covered but it does have holes in the position where motor cable is (on both sides), mind boggling why they didn't also cover that up. Installed my prototype TPU stoppers for the suspension for evaluation. One caveat I noticed when re-assembling one of the battery packs, on the bottom side it has screws right at the edge where the plastic rail has to go in, some of these screws (far from all) had too much plastic around them preventing said rail to go in (and possibly be a source of scraping) so I just used a knife and shaved them a little, problem solved, this is something to be aware of if it seems impossible to reinstall a battery pack properly.

No lock washers, only bolt and blue loctite, LK bolts has a smaller head (not as tall as normal 12.9 bolts) thus adding spacer and lock washer to normal 12.9 bolt (which I didn't have at hand anyway) would make it too tall. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting. The S22 use loctite, but the bolts have a countersunk head, and no washers are used. The Master use loctite, but bolts use a lock washer, but no flat washer. Both of these wheels have axle bolts fastened in aluminum alloy hollow bore axles. It would be good information to know if loctite alone would do the job, with the axle being made from aluminum alloy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CDINPHX Posted June 5, 2023 Share Posted June 5, 2023 Interesting, where are you finding the torque spec’s?  Reason being is I am approaching 500kms here likely within the next couple of weeks and I want to take the wheel apart, check out the west/tear, clean it up retorque, likely wheel swap and possibly tubeless setup.  anyways, I haven’t found the torque settings anywhere, and this is the first reference of a torque I have seen anywhere. Which is awesome, most seem to just loctite and snug up in videos which I have never been a fan of.   thanks  steve  1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
