RideMc Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 Anyone familiar with these guys? https://www.amazon.com/ArtWheel-AW-18-Unicycle-Balancing-Scooter/dp/B06X6M62PS https://www.ebay.com/i/332068266532?chn=ps&dispItem=1http://www.ebay.com/itm/ARTWHEEL-KING-SONG-18-INCH-MOTOR-BLACK-ELECTRIC-UNICYCLE-WHEEL-BY-KINGSONG/282319349961?_trksid=p2385738.c100677.m4598&_trkparms=aid%3D222007%26algo%3DSIC.MBE%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D20160908110712%26meid%3D7db7b4af59904fdcb1ee42c5177593cc%26pid%3D100677%26rk%3D2%26rkt%3D7%26sd%3D332068266532 Seems to all be the same outfit.

Hatchet Posted June 8, 2017 Share Posted June 8, 2017 Wait, is this a real KS18? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kasenutty Posted June 8, 2017 Share Posted June 8, 2017 I saw a bunch of those on eBay and Amazon and wondered the same thing. Looks like just rebranded kingsongs. With zero presence in the community I'm leary of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchet Posted June 8, 2017 Share Posted June 8, 2017 I saw these before and immediately dismissed it as a blatant ripoff. Maybe KS have some kind of deal, but it seems fishy to me, real fishy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kasenutty Posted June 8, 2017 Share Posted June 8, 2017 My only real concern were that they weren't the latest models and seemed to have the smallest batteries. They look like kingsongs. They should post here. But who really knows? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RideMc Posted June 8, 2017 Author Share Posted June 8, 2017 @Hatchet, @kasenutty -I was pretty sketched out too. @Diana@szkingsong.com said they were authorized in another thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RideMc Posted June 8, 2017 Author Share Posted June 8, 2017 @Hatchet, @kasenutty - Howdy, neighbors! Seattle here. What do you guys ride? Yeah, this one is a little older and smaller batteries, but it looks like at least 5 weeks for the 18s to get to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kasenutty Posted June 8, 2017 Share Posted June 8, 2017 Pretty good, but of course I'd like to pick up something else to add to the line up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RideMc Posted June 8, 2017 Author Share Posted June 8, 2017 Yeah. This is kind of our "test out the big wheels" model. Might go with the 18s or Monster 22 eventually.... Will see! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kasenutty Posted June 8, 2017 Share Posted June 8, 2017 So, are you from art wheel? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RideMc Posted June 8, 2017 Author Share Posted June 8, 2017 Hahahaha!! No. Just a Tacomite looking to buy my first 18 inch wheel! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meepmeepmayer Posted June 8, 2017 Share Posted June 8, 2017 @RideMc You ordered already? The artwheel Amazon prices are crazy high, 680Wh 18A costs more than 1680 Wh 18S (as per ewheels)!! Ebay looks more reasonable. If you really want to save money (and can wait a little) you could order from Aliexpress directly from Kingsong or one of the other good (cheap) sellers. You could also ask @Jason McNeil (ewheels.com) if he has an 18 non-S right now that he can ship immediately if you can't wait (website shows 18S only) and what the prices are. Finally, you could contact the artwheel guys and ask some questions. They seem to be a legitimate seller after all. -- In Australia, Milbay has (had?) rebrands of Kingsong, so somehow rebranding seems to be a thing with KS.

Hatchet Posted June 8, 2017 Share Posted June 8, 2017 I want to see the new 18s'. Cant wait for those reviews. By the time I finish saving up the cash maybe the 18s will be out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
