Critzlez Posted August 21, 2023 Share Posted August 21, 2023 (edited) I'm going to keep this review pretty short as pretty much everyone else's reviews are spot on. This wheel gave me no problems other than the water resistance issues I have noted in my post here. What I want to emphasize in this review is the 58lbs suspension as lightweight rider, which will be helpful for anyone around my weight that's confused which spring to get. Many people keep saying to get the 66lbs spring because it bottoms out easily, but it's much more nuanced than that. I ride at the lowest preload and do not bottom out unless I am doing big jumps. The only time I bottom out is when I do jumps like 3 feet tall, but at highest preload and high compression damping I don't bottom out at that height, so the possible jumping height without bottoming out is a bit higher. However, at highest preload on the 58lbs it's way too stiff for my preferences in street riding. 66lbs is also a bit stiffer. 62lbs though feels the same as 58lbs Additionally, I get around 30% sag from lowest preload, which is considered within the ideal range. I never bottom out from curbs or stairs, only from larger jumps. The ultimatum is this for people around my weight (from my experience): Get the 58lbs out 62lbs if you do street riding. Preferably 62lbs add I don't feel much of a difference between them, but you'll bottom out less work the 62. If you only want to do extreme trails and don't care about street riding experience, get the 66lbs.

DjPanJan Posted August 22, 2023 Share Posted August 22, 2023 Thx fo info how many psi you ride? With you weight patton must feel limitless torque. What temps you have after climb hill. Can you share Eucworld(android) tour longer than 25+ miles/km. Im curious i am esactly oposite rider to you 66lbs and max preload: https://euc.world/tour/624509384616029 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milordas Posted August 24, 2023 Share Posted August 24, 2023 81.1km, impresive, but at the end it says 0% battery left.. thats... imposible Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The temperatures don’t really go up much even uphill. I ride 40 PSI 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As at 0% bms should shutt off power as draw would permanently damage batteries. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Extreme example you can set 100% to 126V and 0% to 123V in APP. This results to situation oyu can ride 65km on 0%. My ride end on 90V and 87V is lowes voltage patton is alowed in low batery mode.

Milordas Posted August 25, 2023 Share Posted August 25, 2023 (edited) thats the problem, 90V = 0% of battery charge = 3.00v x 30p. anything less will damage your batteries Edited August 25, 2023 by Milordas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DjPanJan Posted August 25, 2023 Share Posted August 25, 2023 Read this in spec sheet: (low battery protection) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milordas Posted August 25, 2023 Share Posted August 25, 2023 To be safe, never discharge lower than 3.0V, per cell. Anything less in undervoltage and will kaboom your batteries 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
