Yes, thats a fact, a 100v wheel, like the Sherman S, its a performance wheel, more than capable of 60-70kmh, put a lighter motor and chassis, and 50s batteries on it, with a lighter suspension, it would be very interesting with current tech and weight reductions on currently used materials. But im sorry for partially derailing the topic. Like McGyverCanada said, im the meantime these wheels (Xway and Blitz) are in the reducing weight direction and thats why i got interested on this topic, specially when they even went down in voltage with the 134v models, shows interest on balancing resources into reducing weight, still with excellent performance and safety.

Sherman S has high performance because they allow a high current draw and it's partially made possible by having 8P battery configuration (= weight). There is a big performance difference between X-Way 134V and 168V but it comes at the price of added weight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont disagree, its all in line with what i said, 100v works good on lighter wheels, for speeds up to 60-70kmh, the Sherman S can do more than that, easily, a lighter config could be used and still get good performance. Or maybe use 210v like the post from Eyss you quoted. Edited October 5 by Manoloco Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like he doesn't like how it feels compared to the Blitz. Not sure why exactly. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

techyiam Posted Saturday at 09:22 AM Share Posted Saturday at 09:22 AM It's a bit confusing as to what to think of the X-Way, at its current stage of being brought to market. Demo wheels have sent out to a number of dealers to sample. The underwhelming motor performance of the X-Way from one dealer's first impression is puzzling. However, the metric for the comparison is Kevin's own expectation of what a 168V wheel should be able to do. I hope future testers would compare the X-Way directly with the Lynx, Extreme, Blitz, or S22 Pro+ etc. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks easy, but it's not at all. And that they are waterproof, yes, yes, but I don't want to think about how the suspension looks 14 days after that trip in salt water, if the trip doesn't end with a very thorough cleaning... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reminds me of the original Ninebot Z10 video, but it was @Marty Backe who was the first to ride his on the beach. I tried riding mine on compacted, smooth sand at low tide but it sank. Must be the Paciic beaches that work. Edited Wednesday at 12:00 PM by litewave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
