Popular Post who_the Posted August 5, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted August 5, 2018 Enjoyed a really fun couple days of wheeling up here in the San Francisco Bay Area with the one and only @Marty Backe! Lots more to come from this ride and Friday with the Z10, including some riding impressions and video I'm sure. Thanks eWheels and @Jason McNeil for sharing your Ninebot Z10, we had about 30 people at our Friday demo ride and a good group Saturday for our Pacifica to Half Moon Bay trail ride. Let's just say the Z10 more than held its own. Only the absolute most hardcore of riders will ever need more than what this very serious wheel can deliver. 9 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

meepmeepmayer Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 (edited) Passed 5000km on my ACM. Mileage is going up slowly because it has been too crazy hot for riding here for weeks. On the wheel, feels like standing in front of a hot blow dryer This is the one ride I tried.

ED209 Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 @meepmeepmayer 5000km? Incredible, especially on a 16inch wheel. Take a Bow ?. You are surrounded by lovely countryside. Nice scenery for you to explore! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meepmeepmayer Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 Eh, at 50-60km per ride, it's not much. Goes up really fast when you ride daily or every other day. Thing is, I'm essentially riding back and forth restlessly in front of the mountains I can't really ride up like I want (because that would fry my ACM), like a tiger pacing in a cage because it can't get out Thanks anyways! The scenery is nice. Though for real exploring, I'd need double the battery (65km are over really fast, that's 2.5 hours of riding) and most of all the mountain capability. Still waiting for a Gotway (because everyone else seems content to build 1000Wh wheels) that reliably can't be fried on even the craziest hill. EUCs aren't there for me yet. Maybe GW's next 16 inch model... or the one after that 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if you’d be able to rig up a charge and ride system like some onewheel riders have been doing... But yeah, if a DIY charge and ride setup isn’t for you then I suppose waiting is the best option for now! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meepmeepmayer Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 The MCM5 is really tempting, and 800Wh should work for standard mountain rides. Though 16 inches seems better for general offroad and uneven terrain, and I really want the range (for exploring and extended tours!) to go with the climbing ability. What killed it were the Euro prices, that's like $1650 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have to agree with you and the others as to 16" wheels are optimal for most of situations. MSX is wonderful to ride for sure and also ended my quest for any bigger wheel. The one wheel I'd be interested in is not existent, 16" with 3"or + width tire with 1600wh+, until then I think I'm good with what I have. My favorite wheel as of now is Tesla for ride quality but if I will keep only one wheel, It's ACM2 1600 wh.

Here we go again we need all of them in our stall since they are all so different. MSX is a great wheel and I'm keeping it for sure. I will have a chance to ride Z10 shortly and will see but I think I'm going to hold out for the next generation 16" wheels knowing Gotway it could be anytime. Give MCM5 more time and you will see its potential it's a great wheel, it took me over 200 miles to really get the feel of it...

Not sure what GW would come out with to greatly improve the Tesla, maybe more batt... what I would like to see is a KS16, speed at 26mph, 3 inch tire, and 1300 batt.... I'm buying that puppy for sure... LOL If I do a 40+ mile ride on my ACM and it feels good, I will hold off on the MSX... we will see... It is weird, the 16S and Tesla are very similar and very different at the same time... or maybe I need to get my medication updated... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
