Just curious also, unfortunately, there isn’t some e wheel dealership close by where i can see or try any of these wheels. the only euc’s i’ve seen up close, in my entire life, are the ones i bought. if i decide any of these wheels don’t do what i want, if it’s worthwhile, i might sell it. i’m not there yet. my two little s1’s and my e+ cost me $1000 for all three so i’ll definitely keep them and my $700 s2 for teaching other people and learning new things myself. the three “real” wheels, as @Marty Backe would say, are different from one another. 18s,16s and v10f. any of these wheels work on pavement in florida. the real test is my slightly hilly pastures. i haven’t even tried the 16s or v10f out there yet. i’m not even sure riding a wheel in my pastures is feasible on a practical level. i know driving the 18s is a total body work out. go pick on marty, he’ll probably have ten wheels before the summer is over. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kael Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 500 miles between all your wheels? With that much land? Wanna send me one? ? I’ve found it pretty easy to put over 1300 on just one. (Well, two, but I had to get a replacement) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good sir, you've got nothing to defend here. In order for these wheel makers to improve their products they need to sell, so we all can benefit. Besides when and if you decide to sell one of your wheels, it will be great wheel for someone. By experiencing these new wheels brings joy to your heart, that is all that counts. I for one enjoy your perspective on the wheels, I may or may not get. Be the light and shine away... 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I hope he buys a lot more wheels and eventually puts them up for sale. A lot of folks can't afford the price of entry with this hobby and it's a chance for them to get one without breaking the bank. I'd bet a lot of money he doesn't have 250 miles on his wheels. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh $#1T. Thank god for guitars though! Next to them your lame-ass wheel collection is not even a wheel collection, just ”a wheels” (singular). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrelwood Posted May 31, 2018 Share Posted May 31, 2018 To me it doesn’t look nimble. The (extremely skillfull) rider has to try a few times to get a tight turn, and overall seems to require a bit of an effort to be handled at low speeds. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jerome Posted May 31, 2018 Share Posted May 31, 2018 Wow, I really like the looks of the KS18L. I hate to wait all summer for it, but it might be worth it .. for me. I don't like the looks of any Gotways other than the Tesla, BUT, if the Super X doesn't have systemic QA problems it will be hard to bypass. I continue to stay on the sidelines waiting for the Z-line, KS18L and Super X. Decisions .. descions. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Circuitmage Posted June 5, 2018 Share Posted June 5, 2018 According to the specs, the 18l is only 1.25" longer than the 16S...can someone confirm or correct that? ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
