brjohnso Posted March 15, 2018 Share Posted March 15, 2018 So today, I got a message from fedex claiming that they attempted to deliver my KS-16s from ewheels, but nobody was home. Thing is, I have been home all day, and there is no tag on the door, and there is no record on my security cameras of anyone being here. They say they are going to attempt delivery tomorrow. Guess I have to work from home again. Grrrrr... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmethvin Posted March 15, 2018 Share Posted March 15, 2018 Man that pisses me off when it happens. I'm convinced that sometimes the delivery folks just skip the delivery if they're running behind. Maybe they're lost and trying to deliver to the same number on a different street but I would sure hope that a good delivery person could read street signs.

kasenutty Posted March 15, 2018 Share Posted March 15, 2018 Sorry to hear that, I hope they bring mine tonight. I paid extra for a 5-8 pm delivery window. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rehab1 Posted March 16, 2018 Share Posted March 16, 2018 @dmethvin might be onto something. I would make sure Fedex and @Jason McNeil have your correct address. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kasenutty Posted March 16, 2018 Share Posted March 16, 2018 I don’t wanna brag, but I just got mine. A dude in a bmw delivered it. It was weird but I’m pretty happy. Hope yours shows soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So basically they lied yesterday. Probably so delivery timeframe goals and customer agreed delivery times were met rather than refunding for being late due to their own fault.

kasenutty Posted March 16, 2018 Share Posted March 16, 2018 How does it ride? Is this first wheel? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brjohnso Posted March 16, 2018 Author Share Posted March 16, 2018 I bought a segway S1 from Amazon for $299 a couple months ago and learned on that. The new wheel came with some charge in it, so I just got back from a quick ride. It's much faster, smoother, and more stable than the S1. It handles the hills MUCH better!

kasenutty Posted March 16, 2018 Share Posted March 16, 2018 I'm pretty impressed with it too, very nice. I took a short ride last night, but am looking forward to a longer one after work! Much stronger and more stable than my KS14c. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brjohnso Posted March 16, 2018 Author Share Posted March 16, 2018 Whoa! I got it charged up to 90% and rode it again. It's definitely faster on a full charge. I'd say it's every bit as fast as a road bike, and easily as fast as I dare go for now. I'm glad that I ordered the quick charger from wheels. The one that comes with it is pretty wimpy and it runs fairly hot. The quick charger should be here fairly soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kasenutty Posted March 16, 2018 Share Posted March 16, 2018 I woke up with a tweaked out neck today, so I was only able to go 13 km just now after work. It was a good ride though. I live up in Lynnwood and was just cruising parks and neighborhood streets. Beautiful out today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Top wheel.....the feeling you describe, that its faster on a full charge, is for sure just that you get used to it more with every ride ;-) As long as you dont run into safety speed reducement, torque and speed are the pretty much stable :-) 2 hours ago, kasenutty said: I'm pretty impressed with it too, very Wouldnt that be sad, if it would be no big progress? Going from a 14c to a S series is like having a higher voltage under the feet ;-) Have fun and stay safe :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
novazeus Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 fedex left my 16s in my pasture at my service gate. idiots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kasenutty Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 Don't forget, for every 16s dropped off in a pasture, another is delivered in a brand new bmw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
novazeus Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 it does make u wonder how these people survive, much less drive on our highways being that stupid. pretty obvious nobody lives in the pasture except cows and they’re too smart to ride an euc. my fedex delivery. kingsongs packaging ain’t exactly genuis.

eddiemoy Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 congrats! going from ninebot to kingsong is like night and day. i did the same, learned on ninebot then move to kingsong. i do wish sometimes that kingsong 16s would be a little faster. wish it was as fast as the new wheel being released soon the 18L.

kasenutty Posted March 18, 2018 Share Posted March 18, 2018 Hey @brjohnso , did you get any good rides in this weekend? I was able to take mine on a test ride to work and back which was about 15 miles total (23.something km) and it was a good time. It would have been unthinkable on my old wheel, at least my feet wouldn't have been able to take it. Hope yours is rolling good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brjohnso Posted March 19, 2018 Author Share Posted March 19, 2018 Yes, the weather was great and I rode all around Woodinville and Bothel. The jump from 12mph to 22mph really makes the euc a much more viable transportation option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
