We actually said it was amusing and for me it was more along the lines of you working barefoot on a countertop that likely costs more than my car. I love the decadence of that. But anyway, where were we. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Punxatawneyjoe Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 17 hours ago, roghaj said: My workplace: The countertop is 93% Quartz crystal. It has a hardness rating that far exceeds any part of that wheel. Not so much, Quartz has a mohs rating of 7 and you have hardened bolts on that wheel that exceed 8.5. Also a softer metal would have no problem scratching it, it's a matter of pressure and surface area. 17 hours ago, roghaj said: People in here love being negative. I don't think pointing out lack of common sense is "being negative". Even if the countertop was made out of diamond, it's just plain dumb not to put something over the top if you plan on using it as a work bench especially since it's a showroom. Hopefully it's your showroom and you can afford to replace the $900 slab if it gets scratched. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meepmeepmayer Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 A bigger battery version, the Commander GT PRO+, can be found in this split off topic. The improvements mentioned there will also come to the Commander GT PRO, these are variants of the same wheel. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
techyiam Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 (edited) 121 lbs for 4440 Wh battery capacity with 168 V motor drive system. You have the speed and the range. Sounds great for the riders of larger stature who want the speed and need the range? Not sure how it will ride for smaller riders. Perhaps this is Extreme Bull's version of an updated Master Pro, but with a 20" tire, and a 168 V system. Will faster and heavier wheels continue to trend in the US? I wonder how the other manufacturers are going to react? Both Inmotion and Kingsong don't even have a 3600 Wh wheel yet.
