John Eucist Posted December 20, 2016 Share Posted December 20, 2016 I was informed by @Linnea Lin Gotway that it uses standard tires (with a tube) just like on MCM or Msuper. That's good news. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CC wheeler Posted December 20, 2016 Share Posted December 20, 2016 http://s.aliexpress.com/BFBjYzii Different spec same design. This has been in aliexpress for probably at least one month. Did Gotway adopt the design or some sort of partership maybe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just an OEM deal to fill the gap? Just put in a GW PCB.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems logical. There must be a market for these that Gotway recognizes from their earlier product. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Gotway is using an existing shell to bring down the cost (and eventually the price), I am okay and happy about it. But the other one from aliexpress has a 430Wh version while the Gotway version has only 200Wh max. Althought we may have a doubt on the actual capacity of the other one, it seems Gotway is only fitting half the number of cells in the shell (probably a 16s instead of a 16s2p?). Is it because Gotway is using the existing available Gotway battery packs and electronics without any customization work? A new Gotway 10inch wheel is very attractive and practical to me. But having only 200Wh is a little disappointing. In a 10inch wheel, 200Wh can't really bring you too far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's got the same floor to pedal clearance as the Mten1 and Mten2. Or is it the "V" shape you don't like? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I guess the Mten1 pedals do scrape the ground. That was my Mten1 in the video btw (and I shot the vid). I thought that you thought the pedal height of this "luffy" is lower than Mten1 & 2. I measured my Mten2 to be 100mm (I didn't measure my Mten1 because it's in Shenzhen and I'm in Hong Kong right now. Well the @Linnea Lin Gotway measured the luffy and said it's 107mm. The spec sheet on this thread says 100mm. Not sure if that's really the case as I haven't measured the real thing myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1hotdr Posted January 15, 2017 Share Posted January 15, 2017 Is there any new information on these? Has anyone received one? I see them on Speedyfeet's website now but have not found an english review. Would this be a slower, lighter alternative to an IPS Zero? Or is is more of a short range toy? The >400 WH available battery makes me think it was intended to be ridden for significant distances (true 10 km or more at a time?). Would it be silly to try to ride this 10 km?
