meepmeepmayer Posted October 5, 2022 Share Posted October 5, 2022 I took the liberty to make a new thread out of this, as it's not only S22-related. Hope you don't mind. - From the website https://www.kingsong.com/, it looks like there will be anniversary editions of the S22, 16X, and 16S. Not sure what that entails. I don't expect a totally new wheel announcement, but who knows. Also, the website still has some "lorem ipsum" placeholder text from the template. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elliott Reitz Posted October 5, 2022 Share Posted October 5, 2022 Good thread. Hopefully they will be offering design fix solutions for the S22 controllers and motors in the process. S18 V2 appears to be a great upgrade already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Tawpie Posted October 5, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted October 5, 2022 (edited) With their recent track record, I'm guessing they're fully capable of borking a pure redecoration of an already working wheel. (but I do very much like their stuff, just not until a couple years after release) Edited October 5, 2022 by Tawpie 3 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see a silhouette from the current Kingsong euc lineup that matches this. Not sure if it’s the “new wheel” but the silhouette is very much that round shell design of a 14D, 16s, 18L / XL line up. That was the only teaser image I found so far. They are currently working a 16” suspension wheel but I doubt that’s it as jack mentioned on the casting couch interview that the render when he was there was very unique to that wheel.

KNZ Posted October 5, 2022 Share Posted October 5, 2022 Looks like the 16x to me...maybe it's the anniversary edition? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Profile of the 16X is more sloped at the top and seems wider than that looks. If it's "new", it's understated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mayhem Posted October 6, 2022 Author Share Posted October 6, 2022 (edited) Added more pics I found. The one stating what wheels is Ofcourse “unofficial” announcement but that is the lineup that is currently floating around.

sunstrong Posted October 6, 2022 Share Posted October 6, 2022 Cool! Despite the Lorem Ipsum I'm very much looking forward to their next design. I really like the S18 that I have, although I'm not a fan of the S22 design. Felt kinda lazy and not very functional as I've learned watching a lot of reviews (e.g. people swap out the pads anyways, can't grab handle with the seat on, can't see the display while riding...)

Hopefully with all they have learned (fingers crossed), it will be their best wheel to date. 43 minutes ago, sunstrong said: I'm not a fan of the S22 design.

If only those were all the issues with the s20 flame thrower. It would be a pretty good wheel. Edited October 6, 2022 by Mayhem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mango Posted October 7, 2022 Share Posted October 7, 2022 126v Kingsong 16X with LCD display, studded hex pedals and added waterproofing would be the perfect 10th anniversary wheel. Anything less will be an utter disappointment. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HYPED. Function over form... Even if they made them of gold/diamonds. The innings of the wheels are the same.. Nothing exciting. Simple fast money grab. One day "limited" deals - are stupid, stupid thing. Because let's be honest. "Beautiful", "limited", etc.. Is everything needed for people to spend their money. Almost same thing apple does with their smartphones. 12 vs 13 - the same phone, jet zombies go out of their way, just to buy the "newest". If they don't bring out a new wheel like S16(Which they should.) - i'm not hyped at all. Edited October 8, 2022 by Funky 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
