YCC Posted November 25, 2023 Share Posted November 25, 2023 Which do you prefer among these two EUC, Lynx or Adventure, and why? I attached their spec as follow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meepmeepmayer Posted November 25, 2023 Share Posted November 25, 2023 It should be noted that these are different tire sizes and therefore they will will ride differently. The Adventure has a smaller tire diameter, like the Extreme/V12/T4/S16 etc. The Lynx is one size bigger, like the Sherman-S/V11/S19/S22/EX30 etc. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You mentioned a good point, however, I would choose the V14 rather than Patton if I compared the spec of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bpong Posted November 25, 2023 Share Posted November 25, 2023 there really isnt enuf reviews on V14, Lynx, extreme, well any new wheels for 2023. you may have to wait till the beginning of 2024 riding season. from a prospective buyer of 2023, all bets are off IMO although the Lynx does look the most promising of all 2023 offerings ... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forwardnbak Posted November 26, 2023 Share Posted November 26, 2023 (edited) both (I also think they are different wheels) Edited November 26, 2023 by Forwardnbak 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YCC Posted November 27, 2023 Author Share Posted November 27, 2023 (edited) In sum, I should compare the Lynx with Ex30, and compare V14 with Patton. What are your thoughts? It is hard to tell the positioning of the wheel since all of the wheel as follow have suspension, however, I agree the opinion of distinguishing the positioning of street and off-road. How to tell the positioning of a wheel is STREET or OFF-Road? King of STREET 16” wheel(3.0-12): 18” wheel(3.0-12): V11Y 20” wheel(2.75-14): Ex30 22” wheel(3.0-16): V13 King of OFF-ROAD 16” wheel(3.0-12): V14 18” wheel(3.0-12): 20” wheel(2.75-14): Lynx 22” wheel(3.0-16): Master Pro Edited November 28, 2023 by YCC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtl Posted November 27, 2023 Share Posted November 27, 2023 Based on initial youtuber impressions it seems you would want V14 competing for 16" off-road instead of street, given the stiffer out-of-the-box suspension, and perhaps the IPX ratings. For 18" street you might be looking at the V11Y. I think price would be a key factor to consider, especially when comparing the V14 vs. Lynx which are $1000 USD apart. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimjam.nyc Posted November 27, 2023 Share Posted November 27, 2023 I think it will be personal preference. Its really hard to label any of these wheels King of anything. Even with the specs I feel like all of the wheels can perform fairly well in their given ranges. It really will come down to which wheel you like the look of, ride feel of, after support, price, etc. I honestly hated the whole ranking of wheel video that electric dreams put out. I like hearing all of the info and opinions on the wheels in that video. Especially getting it all in one place in one video. That part was awesome, but the ranking part to me is just matter of very very subjective opinions. Even when it comes from someone like Jack who is super informed and gets to ride almost every wheel. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christian90s Posted March 29 Share Posted March 29 I am TORN between the V14 and Lynx. I love to go fast and the bigger tire is better for a bigger guy, but my main riding would be greenways and dirt bike trails. The V14 has the torque and looks awesome, but the lynx just looks solid. Im 6'3 280lb so its tough. Any suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forwardnbak Posted March 29 Share Posted March 29 Both wheels are great on street and for trail. They both have good speed and great torque. V14 is a little more twitchy but that equals fun and a good workout. V14 is super easy to adjust suspension on the fly with the knobs so accessible and they work. Inmotions app and settings are a little more user friendly. waterproofing/weather is a little more durable. V14 comes with good pads in the box. I’m using my v14 for rain, trails, shops and gos great fun in the street. Lynx is great! one of the best fun wheels I’ve been on for fast sprints. It all feels quality, the ride, the finish of the wheel and the look are super! The Lynx has a greater range, the larger tyre does make for a comfier ride. also just the size for a bigger rider gives you more to grab onto and doesn’t feel as compact as V14 to get pads on etc. The Lynx has touch screen so you can adjust settings without needing a phone near by, but the menus are a little tricky to navigate (fine once you learn the language) Suspension on both is great for road or offroad. Both would do what you want no problems but maybe some of the above may help. I would be so happy to have either of these wheels. For a larger rider I’d maybe consider the Lynx more but you really need to try to ride them both. Good luck. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christian90s Posted March 30 Share Posted March 30 Lol once again back to they're both great! As much as Id love the lynx, its a thousand dollars more, so ill probably stick with the V14.

That often trumps everything. Any wheel is a great wheel whatever can be afforded I think. I love my V14 super fun wheel and it’s doing everything I need with no trouble 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnnyWheels Posted April 2 Share Posted April 2 Maaan, I am in the same boat as you, sort of. Im between V14 and V11Y. My key points: V11Y: Enough power (would be nice with a 3k motor), would be nice with a sliiightly higher top speed to safely cruise at 55-60. 'Electric Dream' had a review and he 'struggled' to go past 55 kmh (wheel says top speed 60). And the beeps were really low, he couldnt hear them with his Proframe helmet on. Only 84V Enough battery 'Low' weight Love the carry handle with the built in killswitch to easily jump off and instantly grab to lift up stairs etc Low price (!) Easy suspension for city commuting Good water rating 18'' wheel should make the wheel tad more stable than a 16'' Far too many steps/screws for maintenance (tyre change etc) in my humble opinion V14: More than enough power and high voltage Good battery Bit heavy for what Id want Excellent water rating (very important for me) Super expensive (!) Includes power pads Excellent to work on, very easy disassembly for a tyre change, battery swap etc (good job InMotion!) I keep going back and forth, and its quite annoying, haha^^ Im waiting for some nice reviews of the V11Y, and hopefully it can help me make the decision. Currently Im aiming for V14 (Black 50S cells). Been eyeing Veteran Patton too, which I think looks the most sexy, hehe, but as far as I know theres no official water rating, is there? Man, this turned into a long post, sorry.. @Forwardnbak Ive seen you ride in heavy rain on your old V11 and now recently on your V14 (thanks for all the uploads btw mate, love the content!), what are your thoughts on water ratings? I do have some trust issues from EUC companies when it comes to water. Ive ridden my 16X in rain, but ive used a backpack rain cover over it (ofc water will spray up into the wheel bore), and havnt had any issues, so far. I think I might be paranoid enough to use the same cover on the V14, even if it does have a really good IP rating. Like, if I can 100% eliminate water running down the trolley handle, and the screw holes for the motherboard covers, why not, right? Okey, I´ll end it here^^ @YCC, Good luck with your wheel-decision 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the great mention I always worry a little taking anything electric into rain, it still feels wrong to me. I understand completely with the trust on ratings. I had too much trust v11 days I guess and expected so much of it coming in blind into the industry. I gave it a heap! So much full on rain. After the bearings initially failed the team at ERIDERZ sorted it and popped the covers in. From then flawless in the wet. V13 also I’ve given a bit and I was worried about the touch screen when I had ghost touches but that was only after you touch it once in the wet. Don’t touch it and it seems ok. V14 I have my trust in and so far so good! I have to say it has had no issues and I’ve rolled at least 5 times now I’m good rain. Keeping an eye on it, but maybe this is the one? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
