I had a Heidenau K66 on the SS which i operated tubeless, seal was already there even before applying air into.... Every tubeless tire will work. They are all the same standard for some reason.... Seems to me that ewheels tested which chinatire will fit/work tubeless for theyr batch But for sure no Single china tire is aproved for tubeless operation in reality... And there is no Single knobbytire aproved for tubeless operation unfortanatly (not even a shinko) So believe me all your prefered tires will work perfectly fine if even an chinastreettire was found by them to work out 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've seen others answer your question before by referring to the thread on the new Inmotion V11Y, as the Longxin 841 was mentioned there. Have you checked out that thread yet? The tire is also now for sale on eWheels. If you have an EUC on which you like the pilot street, it might be the best option to buy the tire and test it on your EUC, so you know for sure that you like the way the Longxin compares to the pilot street. It'll give you a quicker answer than waiting for someone else to coincidentally Mount your favorite tire on an (as of yet) unshipped wheel. Tire choice is hard, and sometimes you gotta bite a bullet and test stuff out for yourself. Only you know the best tire for your riding preferences ✌️ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, I don't know the sidewall rating. That's why I suggest asking around on the V11Y thread, where people are also talking about and showing photos of the Longxin tire, to increase the chances you will get answers to your questions. I believe you misunderstand what I said: You know what's best for YOU, not what's objectively the best (there's no such thing as an objective "best tire"), or what's best for a company. Companies seek to provide a product that can satisfy many buyers without need for shipping multiple iterations and sourcing multiple, let alone expensive tires. An "almost semi-knobby" tire, as you said, would likely make the most sense to a company as a means for that end, so I'm not sure why EUC companies not shipping their wheels with a semi-slick tire is such an apparently upsetting choice. Also weird is the comparison you seem to be drawing that ties Leaperkim's use of the Longxin as a sign of its inferiority to Inmotion when the Inmotion V11Y is being shipped with the same tire. The Kenda 262 gets shipped with a lot of Leaperkim Wheels, and many find the tire superior to the CST 186, which gets shipped with Begode and other wheels stock, yet you don't see others saying that this difference, a stock tire that is easier than ever to replace, is what makes one company better over the other. 6 hours ago, novazeus said: everybody testing the lynx hates whatever tire is on the one they are testing. u would think they would get a clue, but as long as humans buy them, they won't change. I find it weird that you insult the intelligence of people you seek help from, and yet the tire you are likely referring to is the CST 186, a knobby tire from a Chinese company that I'm sure I've seen you say you'd find acceptable, and not the Longxin, which you seem dead-set on publicly denouncing for being made by a company likely founded in China. Found the comment i was referencing: On 11/8/2023 at 8:44 PM, novazeus said: a good view of the tire tread. i could live with that knobby whatever it is. 6 hours ago, novazeus said: not symetrical, almost semi knobby. probably a tiny bit better than the pos jiluer tire. What's wrong with an asymmetric tire, aside from aesthetics? Its okay to explain what you think the problem is with this tread design. That's what we're here to do, after all: discuss helpful information or experiences! Like, whats your experience with the Jiluer tire? Got any photos? Did you ever ride a wheel with the tire mounted to it? Here's the V11Y thread where people are mentioning and photographing the Longxin 841. I hope they can provide additional info on the tire vis a vis the sidewall rating. On 10/31/2023 at 11:56 AM, Jason McNeil said: Jack just got back from the Inmotion assembly facility today, with a bunch of pics/videos... - It has a new mud-guard design - All V11Ys were dyno tested using a constant 30Nm of resistance - The shocks are a different height to accommodate for the lower pedal bracket position, with the top section that's 20mm longer - Weight specs on the comparison was crossed/wrong, V11Y is the heavier 65.5lb vs 61.7lb with the V11 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
novazeus Posted December 10, 2023 Share Posted December 10, 2023 (edited) i found this and i shot a video of my s18 with jiluer tire on it, just waiting for the upload. and it's waaay better now than as delivered. and i have a michelin to put on it, but my understanding and videos, it looks like a real pita! and what really sucks, is in kuji's s18 promo video, he had a decent tire on his. i got what i think was a jason overrun with molicels from studio amg for $1699. a real steal, but not if u hate the wheel because the tire sucks. most of y'all run on deflated tires anyway, like marty, so tires don't matter much, according to marty, the non tire nerd. and btw, i had neltrek evolution put on a michelin pilot street 2 before he sent me the first one, since he had to open it up and change the motor bolts(first batch issues)but if they had put the michelin on as stock, everybody would have hated it. and gotten bruised up just like i did. only took about 1500 miles running it at 47psi before it got good. i seriously doubt most forum members could ride my v13 with this hard street tire, based upon years of hearing people on here complain about hard tires, beginning with the 9bz10, first euc with a decent actually rated for the load tire. ya, great tire. should have seen it before i reseated it and ground on it. and idk why, but the tread pattern made it pull left so hard, i could literally ride one my right foot to get it to go straight. not my first wheel. don't tie leaperkim's tire choice to the reason i cancelled my order with jason, it was more ecodrift's teardown video and jack's video, and finally realizing that leaperkim is gotway/begode employees that just started a new company. i've never own or seen a gotway/begode/leaperkim vehicle in person. i might change my mind if someone wants to stop by and show me theirs. hopefully, everyone will love the lynx and it's longxin tire. after a long trial period, and the novelty wears off, maybe i'll buy twenty for my school. i'm much more interested in getting humans safely using wheels on my safe multiuse paths i'm building here next to the biggest super regional shopping center in the state and growing. u could live here and never own a car. like nyc without the crime. btw, there's an old saying, "he who has the gold rules". let's see how this shakes out. i predict tougher economic times ahead.

Wild that you feel the need to derogate everyone's tire preferences if they differ from yours... So, judging by the fact that the tire you're saying is a "pretty good tire" in the Kuji rolls video you posted is a Kenda 340A, an asymmetrical tread, I'm assuming you don't think an asymmetrical tread is a bad thing. Would have expected otherwise, considering the Michelin is symmetrical, and considering the fact that you deem the Longxin to be cheap without stating why other than describing it as asymmetric. And aside from the lesser tread depth, it's not too different from the Kenda 340A, which, again, you say looks good.... So confusing. If you keep unfoundedly derogating other's preferences, and it remains confusing what you actually mean when you talk about tires, then it's impossible for me to have a productive conversation... Could we just focus on the Lynx without complaining about stuff that the end users (we) have control over for themselves, like tire changes? Especially without being derogative towards others! 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

novazeus Posted December 12, 2023 Share Posted December 12, 2023 u know, i think the lynx would be perfect for a go kart type of track and racing. like nascar where the cars are equal, all racers would be racing with identical wheels, only variation would be tire pressure. or supercross rstyle racing but all the same lynx's. kid's do it with dirtbikes. and lynx's are relatively lightweight. i love my v13's but i wouldn't want one crashing into me in a pile up. that "chainsaw" effect on tilts scares me a bit.

Is it that it "got good?" Or that you adapted to it completely? Because 1,500 miles is a LOT, for something to finally become acceptable. After that amount of time, you were probably extremely adapted to that tire. On 12/10/2023 at 12:02 PM, novazeus said: i seriously doubt most forum members could ride my v13 with this hard street tire, "Could" ride it? As in "i seriously doubt most forum members would be able to ride my v13? Did you mean to say you doubt most forum members "would prefer to" ride it? There's a big difference... The second one is more accurate, (and definitely friendlier.) My two cents. On 12/10/2023 at 12:02 PM, novazeus said: In your S18 video, it looks like your tire isn't running true.

on one Posted December 13, 2023 Share Posted December 13, 2023 (edited) Chooch always pushes the limit, and he always says the new one is the best, lol. The Lynx is special though. Leaperkim even added those lame turn signals to make it more potentially register-able. Time for me to start saving up for this one. Even though it will likely take me 2 years of saving, I'm curious to see if anything can beat it, though I doubt it. I especially like how veteran took the for-thought to keep the wheel from cutting out over the loss of Hall sensor. I want it!

on one Posted December 13, 2023 Share Posted December 13, 2023 True, but I would say 'proven' rather than 'old'. That's a major reason I chose a modern Z10 release, because I was convinced that the newer release was likely a 'proven' ride, even though the first release had many issues. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InfiniteWheelie Posted December 14, 2023 Share Posted December 14, 2023 In 2 years you'll probably be able to buy it at a deep discount, there's certainly nothing wrong with that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrabChampion Posted December 15, 2023 Share Posted December 15, 2023 It appears like wrongway's Lynx is overcharging. I think I much prefer the v13 and begode wheels only charging up to 4.18v just for a bit of leeway. Whats you guy's thoughts on this?

Popular Post Rawnei Posted December 15, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted December 15, 2023 (edited) Doesn't say much but the statement that boards blow when braking because of that is completely wrong. Boards blew (past tense since they already changed it in factory long time ago now) because LK put overcurrent protection on the BMS.
