LanghamP Posted May 21, 2017 Share Posted May 21, 2017 One caveat; you cannot know what wheel best suits you until after you've bought your first wheel and ridden it quite a bit. I think I would only want three wheels at any one time. I can imagine my choice of wheels being flipped on the distance if I lived in the suburbs. A tiny wheel like the IPS I5 that I would probably use most of the time as most of my needs are under one mile. A midsize wheel like the Inmotion V5 or V8, or a solo wheel Extreme that can work in most situations. A big long range wheel like a KS16, Rockwheel 16 for the longer trips. I have occasionally run dry on a shorter ranged wheel and I can see using these wheels were I to live in the suburbs. Wheels I would likely not buy; Gotway MSuper, Monster, KS18, basically those approaching or exceeding 50 pounds. Rather, I'd would use an electric bicycle or a gasoline motorcycle (or let's be honest my car) for those elevated speeds, but very probably stick a rack on the back to carry a small wheel. Finally, I'd probably always want a historical wheel like a IPS 121, or solo wheel classic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchet Posted May 21, 2017 Share Posted May 21, 2017 I can buy three wheels to have? A V5F+ or V8, ACM 1600wh, and a Monster. That should about cover every conceivable need I could have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LanghamP Posted May 21, 2017 Author Share Posted May 21, 2017 I mean you could throw in a Tesla p and a scooter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dingfelder Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 The Monster, because there's nothing else like it. And I do need a big wheel at over 200 lbs. myself and living around hills. I'm not sure otherwise. Probably the ACM for pure hill-climbing ability. And then a choice between either the top level MSuper 3 and the Kingsong 18S. I'd love something small enough to carry and pack under a seat that could also tackle steep hills with aplomb (and a bit of battery to spare plus safety), but that machine apparently is a ways off in the future.
