I'm a S18 owner, and completely agree with this reviews highly critical nature. my wheel arrived with a major manufacturing flaw (the wheel/motor was off center by 3-5mm.) Even after being fixed, it still isn't 100% right, because I think the manufacturing margins are way too high - and the wheel lacks perfect symmetry.
There is a lot of talk about the suspension structure (linkages, bearings, and interior piston), and it appears that this structure doesn't make full use of the shock, and suffers from poor design.
I agree the wheel is easy to overpower - and this gets really sketchy under 50% battery. It is not a wheel to push hard - especially above 25mph.
I also don't like how easy it is to hit the lower pedal parts, and squared off parts on the ground - so much so that I moved the pedals to their highest placement, and added additional padding for better leverage. This put me at a high center of gravity, and more than my other wheels (18xl and MSP), the S18 feels like your way out in front of the wheel while riding (hard to explain), and if you hit sand or loose gravel the s18 has a tendency to twist out from under you, more than my other wheels.
The trolley handle stuff is very well described, and baffling design.
I have had a lot of fun riding this wheel, and it is finding it's place in my small collection of wheels - that being said, I will never buy a first generation KS wheel again.

you probably dont care at all but does anybody know a method to log back into an instagram account?
I somehow lost my password. I would love any tips you can offer me.

@Thaddeus Kevin Thanks so much for your reply. I found the site on google and im in the hacking process now.
Looks like it's gonna take a while so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@Thaddeus Kevin it worked and I finally got access to my account again. I am so happy:D
Thanks so much you really help me out :D
I've only heard glowing reactions to this wheel. Now this review changes everything. Even before this review, I'd become cynical of EUC reviews in general, feeling that the reviewers were placating the manufacturer and not being honest possibly because of kickbacks or some perk. Flaws are always glossed over or omitted altogether. Nice to see some honestly. Did something change? From now on I won't buy a wheel until the general public has them in hand and can give honest feedback.
Much respect for being honest Adam. This review might hurt King Song and some King Song fans, but it benefits the entire EUC community as a whole. Thanks to people like you the bar has been raised; companies can't be releasing wheels with so many issues in 2020. The review itself was very detailed and very funny. You should cheer up now that it's over - you sounded so sad and disappointed. For you to heal up physically, and mentally, I prescribe: two advil, some sleep, some rest, some relaxation, and as much time as possible on the V11.
"I intentionally tried to overpower the machine and use it in an extremely unsafe manor and came to the conclusion that the machine is dangerous"
Now, that is a interesting characterization of simply "accelerating hard below max speed ". Wheels in this class are expected to handle that.
That block thing was the best laugh I've ever had on TH-cam (maybe you've missed your calling).
You may knock the block out, but your bearings are dead anyway from the box because you're as fool as me to preorder Kingsong wheel. You should disassemble it and change all the bearings if you want really smooth suspension. Throw away that spring washers that damaged bearings and change it to simple washers. Use 10*12*0.2 (or 10*14, or 10*16) washers between double bearings when pressing in. Next buyers should receive a good assembled wheel with some parts physically changed. But those who preorded the wheel... pwned. We have bought alpha version. Not a beta testers, but alpha.
Sorry about the broken hand. I hope you have a speedy recovery!
Thanks for the honest review! When the S18 was first announced I was enamored by the looks and didn't like the V11. Fortunately I never put a pre-order on the S18. I was on the group ride when Alien Rides had a bunch of riders try the S18. Everyone hated the wheel and there were many experienced riders that tried it. We even took it on our 25 mile group ride and it couldn't finish the ride due to lack of range. The crazy hills don't help the S18 but none of the Gotways (Nikola, MSX, Monster, etc.) had any problem and they were going very fast the entire time. I was extremely worried about the battery sag on the S18 with that motor and small pack. You clearly showed that is a problem and that can't be easily fixed. I don't know why more people are not highlighting that major flaw.
I know a few people now with the V11 and they absolutely love that wheel. I just picked up a Nikola 100v so I will need to wait a bit for my next wheel. I want to see how the Gotway EX does before making my choice for a suspension wheel. For now, my next wheel would be a V11 or a Veteran Sherman. There is no chance I would consider the current S18.
Sure 👌 none of the Gotway wheels had any issues
And none of the experience riders liked the S18 ! But every one you know loves the v11
Ok Gotway boy!
@@stewartciesla8142 I just got into EUCs and only have two of them so I don't have much experience so I look at what most people ride. Of the 20 or so EUC riders in the group almost all of them have Gotways and three of them now have V11s as well. No wheel is perfect and I do wish Kingsong success with the S18.

I'm seriously out here outdoors on a park bench having lunch and I'm crying from laughter. Please more more more stuff like this!!! 💪🏻🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂👍🏻
Wow pure Wrong Way! high quality review just bravo. All this 30 min review be simplified to:
S18 is medium power suspension wheel what feel best in city and not dirty offroad situation.
This product is propably best for "Casual" riders what can benefit from S18/battery/speed/power compromises who no want 18L because S18 is reskined 18L with suspension.
And only thing what make people compare to MSS MSP Nikola Pro V11 Gotway Monster(or just say power wheels) is actual S18 price not parameters at all.
I can imagine if i am under 90Kg person and happy with 40-50 km range 43km/h safe speed my preference is comfort and realy unique look (subjective) and have unlimited money S18 is good choice this is what i feel from you review and this is good job make by you.
Thanks for this safety testing @WrongWay 🙏👍👍
This beep friendly wheel should definitely, before letting you accelerating to near faceplant:
- beep at you on time! This is what beeps are meant for, to let you know to ease off. It beeped then cut off Bluetooth right away.
- keep a power reserve to give you a hard tiltback to force you to decelerate anyway.
Instead, this wheel lets the voltage sag down to oblivion, things like Bluetooth that costs only a few milliamps and allows to diagnose crashes get shut off.
Okay you were using third party pads with more leverage than stock but that's no excuse.
Although you and the wheel managed to recover from the precarious situation, Kingsong messed up the safety implementation here badly indeed.
The S18 is an unsafe wheel until this fault is reworked, fully agree.
I completely agree. Cutoffs shouldn't be normal. It should have a good gradual tiltback but hard if necessary.
This just confirms my decision to switch my pre-order to the MSP was the right one. Thanks man!
To totally different wheels! They're not even remotely close to being in the same league.
@@stewartciesla8142 I didn't say they were the same. I know they are different. I really wanted the suspension but it's too early anyways. Both seemed like good trail riding options. KS just failed on this one. Get "two" your point.
Chet Hilkert no they didn't
I have an S18 and its as good or better then my 18xl, GW Monster v3
And much better then my MTen3
@@stewartciesla8142 There are way to many problems with the S18. I'm sorry you bought it and feel the need to defend it. So far it's cutouts from over acceleration, motor wire rubbing, pedal clips breaking, suspension bars rubbing, etc... I know there are others I'm missing. It's good in theory but they failed the execution. I'm sure future versions will be better. We do need beta testers, so I thank you for that. I don't feel like having to fix my brand new wheel constantly and being a crash test dummy. MSP isn't perfect, but it has far less problems than the S18.
@@chetticus1 not sure where you're getting this information man. The vast majority of the reviews of the S18 are very good. And apparently, it's very durable. I don't have any wheels, but I do watch a lot of videos..
Suspension doesn't mean wheel has to be offroad. Plenty of bumps on road
Before I sold the Onewheel to buy the s18, I would get a cutoff at least once a week... once I fractured my tail bone I sold it... Onewheel for sure is the sketchiest out of all them.
I got the chance to ride a onewheel today and I must say I pretty stoke about it’s performance in the trails. I still smoked them with my MSX but then again this was expected.
Absolutely great review! I greatly appreciate the honest in this review, as well as the laughs lol.
Keep it up, be safe, and Keep it wheel!
Great video!! I love your honesty! That’s why you are a great critic! There’s no politics!
The blocks are there to prevent the big screws around it from over-tightening. (Says Kingsong Representative from FB Chat after I initially felt the suspension was a bit stiff)
Just put it back, screw the sliders back tight, and knock it off again if you need to take it apart for some reason.
soooo it looks like I'll have to wait for S18v2. Thanks for the review, I've nearly preordered this thing....
I’d wait for v3 for them to polish it up. This is a new thing in the euc world. So dont risk it
Thanks for the honest review, was going to wait for your review before buying a V11 or S18, but went and ordered a V11 anyway. Your review more or less confirms my fears, great suspension, but that’s about it. For a £2000 euc it lacks the quality one would expect for the price. Your summary is spot on, it’s an Alfa Romeo
There are a lot of V11's with issues though...
Great review - doesn't put me off the S18, but it's food for thought to Kingsong on their next variation of this wheel. It's the price of innovation I'm afraid, you cant get it all right first time out of the styles.
my KS S18 has found it's place in my collection - it is my night rider. If I have to be somewhere, run a chore, like getting some food at night, the S18 has become my go to wheel.
the one thing I do disagree with this review is regarding the S18 headlight, which is super bright and has a nice angle/spread. It may not be the V11 headlight, but it's still quite good (it is my understanding the v11 headlight can actually be too bright looking straight down while riding at night, and the S18 does not have that issue)
Excellent information, thank you. The KS S18 was the only E-wheel I was considering buying because it looks awesome, but now it is clear that I should wait and see if they do fix those too many ugly issues that make it a rip-off.
Sometimes the truth hursts...but honesty should always prevails. Glad I bought my mcm5....I enjoy the non-suspended skill. Thanks for this review.
Great review Adam. The spanish clip had me cracking up. Good job!
Conclusion: go get yourself a V11 😎
lol V11 sucks even much more. couldn't even get to the very start of overheat hill
Oooook soooo, actually none of this video really surprises me. Why? I've been watching every reviews about the s18 since it's out. We knew quality wasn't the best, the battery is small therefore and it was already proven, accelerating fast wouldn't do. Does it mean that this wheel is unridable a 40/45kmh if you just don't do it MJ style? Can you answer this?
I agree the light is cheap led you find in those Ali express cops like lamp, and this is a bummer, wish all euc's had led+lens! (they don't need to have fans, riding cools it down fine).
Must agree with the handle, it's beautiful I like the fact that it disappears and all but, we need something to grab on, I was planning on hadding a leather handle to the casing (people tune the Sherman for all sort of things, why not the s18 for a handle, both are expensive)
Now agree again there should be more clearance from the mudguard And the casing so swapping tires can be done more about the kind of surface you're willing to ride on.
Agree too on the combo low battery/high power motor, it must be rethinked. But s18 handled climbing very wheel and jumping to and i think it's due to it's powerful motor, so maybe change the algorithme and make it more smooth accelerating like the v11 and less aggressive
So now, s18 is THE FIRST wheel to propose something like that, and i mean: suspension centered design (others chose to go with pogo sticks and I'm sorry but I'd rather have a non suspension wheel off road than that type of suspension there... Too dangerous), therefore you have to cut battery, you have to think of a way of attaching all the parts together at least for now (that's not just 2 shits of plastic left and right, screw in the middle there you have it). We must now consider this, the euc world is still young, small, and to advance you need money. I'm happy that kingsong took the bet, why? Because this is the way suspension wheels should be done in the future, this is the first one, no one has ever done that before, so yes it's imperfect. It could be cheaper and they could have continued developing but, companies need found and that's a fact. S18 is 2300€ here, it's expensive, but it's investment in the future, they would find something in the middle, 1700 I think is a tad low, maybe 1850/1900 max. They already changed a loooooot a things and they continue too, that's a good sign, but first is money and I don't think telling people that wheel is SHIT is gonna help KS and that wheel become the standard, it will make it disappear, next time we will be going extreme city freestyle and off road on pogo stick bouncing around and all, breaking our bones.
This is new, it can't be perfect, probably be more battery, better system in the futur, either you pay and collaborate to that or you don't and take your money to conventional wheels, it's up to you. But never forget this, on a small market like euc's, you need founds to advance. Taking that kind of bet was hard I think for KS, it's a big risk. Ninebot, gotway, inmotion they all have big backgrounds and other activities yet they couldn't dare do something like that, they saw money for supplier but not that much innovative device. OK
Now I need a wheel that can take me to work 50km a day, take some stairs, jump up some things easily, and ride it's ass off on the week end in the forests I have in here with 10 to 30 degree long climbs, s18 is great for all that and I won't forget. This is not a wheel for speed demons.
I have juste one question. If the battery has so much sag, how come it handles so fine on choochtech videos? He's not doing 15mph, and going all around, so I wonder. Leaning like GWs no bainers is bad on that wheel other than that it's fine and it will be better, if it's profitable. If not it will simply disappear, that would be a shame.
Thank you Adam for pointing all this ( that I already knew), and I do hope that the review will be a review since you already pointed every possible bad things in here. Also remember that one cannot fit all, and i hope KS will make something of this review, like they always do
Ya, but tell us what you really think.
@@GoG6138 Adam or me?
Beeping is caused by KS firmware that confirms EVERY command sent to it from app. So every time EUC World connects to a KS wheel, it needs to read some important data and sends few commands to the wheel. Each command is acknowledged by the wheel with a beep. And if your phone will lose connection, after regaining connection this will be repeated. It's not a problem with EUC World, it's an annoying feature of KS wheels and happens with all apps. I asked Jack from King Song to remove beeps in next firmware updates, but... as we know, King Song - to put it mildly - does not always respond to user requests.
Thank you for such a HONEST REVIEW. People need to know exactly what there getting into like you said.
Can't say anything bad about your latest videos, maybe your name should be Right Way
Almost a year and a half since this review was done. I know several people who own an S18, just like me. These pointed "defects" have not been confirmed in general. The handle is a very good solution as, built-in, it does not suffer damage when the EUC is dropped. Water resistance is sufficient. The fairing proved to be resistant to the heaviest use. The suspension is praised (and copied by another brand!). The apparent power cord, as far as I know, has never had any problems. It seems to me that the analysis failed. EUC users need to keep in mind that each model is preferably indicated for a type of riding. No one who cares about their knees will practice jumping with a Monster Pro, just as anyone who wants to travel long distances will choose an S18.
I made a update review afterwards. You’re right :)
For those wondering, the block on 7:40 was redesigned out in the production batch, or basically removed entirely and the video by KingSong was removed. I do like the alternative speed pad on this video. EUCGUY stopped production on it, too bad.
I bought it from China for 1450€. Not disappointed. Its my first wheel. :O Great review. Did you recover from the pedal drop at 40kph?
Lol in that meme so many words sound alike :D you did great job on it! :D I hope my wheel doesnt lock itself too.

@@eveoff thx a lot. Bought there a 18xl 2 years ago.
Welcome to... The kinggggggsssssong black list.. Now i dont feel so alony..ahahahahah
Beside that Im sad to hear that the s18 is just what I expected anyway I will be receiving it soon and will be able to test it side by side with my v11
Very good video 👌 the plastic looks very cheap when you get up close, perhaps they spent all their budget on the mechanical aspect and then the rest was quick and dirty just to get it finished. They shouldn't rely so much on glue and sticky tape for something that is constantly exposed to the elements.
Ive heard others say that gotway looks like prototype, but compared to the final finish here, it doesn't look like that at all.
Your video will for sure spread out and in the end improve all
I don't think they will improve things much because KingSong is stubborn and proud. I'll give you an example: 16X still collects dust inside the rear wing and, although they've been told that countless times, they haven't changed anything so far. NOTHING! They could have done it much better but they don't want to because it "works like that". KingSong treats any defect as a feature ;) They are very arrogant and do not admit their mistakes.
respect for making such an honest review, this will only make the EUC companies get better. but that commentary had me dying.
A very good review! I can confirm about the mudguard, it flaped already before 14km total distance (of which, 10km was with 20kmh). Despite the weight increase from 22 to 25kg and all the KS "improvements" (wider pads actually is worse for me) and the additional time for the fixes in the name of "quality is first" typical KS buzzword, KS released this wheel still like a test prototype. 16X is a better wheel. Whatever, I won't by a KS ever again! MSX is a much better wheel at half the price
Where can you get a new msx for 900 bucks? You can't!
That's half the price of the S18
@@stewartciesla8142 2200euro is (was already?) an S18. And MSX can be found at around 1200-1300 euro (if it will not get expensive or still in stock)
Great vids, thanks for the tip on the handle. Agree it's could be better.
I have a first batch S18. It replaces my V8f. The S18 is great. The suspension is great. Compared to the V8f this thing is flying over the trails.
The great thing is that it's 25 kg. That's a lot better then some other suspension wheels..
Hi Wrong Way, that talk show was hilarious, and a really look like they were discussing the S18, LOL! Thanks for bringing out all those issues with the S18, and you came across as being objective.
Thanks for the honest review I.m new to riding with about 2 weeks under my belt and was thinking of buying this sometime next year. now I will switch to the RS 19 last thing I need are cut-outs from just acceleration
I just bought the V11 and this video has made me feel really good about that decision. Thankfully I've never experienced a cut off and I think that's cuz I only ride InMotion.
I switch from the V11 to S18, knowing that this wheel is weak compared to the completion. It's still the best suspension wheel out there based on the reviews so far but the V11 and other high-end wheels are superior in terms of speed and range.
@@therealestmc85 And safety.
@@therealestmc85 It's the wheel that has the best suspension, but that doesn't mean it's the best wheel that has suspension. You're making sacrafices everywhere else. Power, speed, range, safety, etc.
@@TheParentalRevolution And lighting.
One Wheel Man, this is a trail and short distance wheel. I wouldn’t buy this wheel as my only wheel. This thing is made for the trails and occasional street riding. I think any other wheel comes close in that aspect. I don't see why this wheel is less safe in its environment than any other wheel. Like I said, if I could only afford one wheel, the V11 would be it. As an owner of MSX 100V, the V11 isn’t really filling any gap, besides the ability to ride at night.
'you have to come to a complete stop, then take it out, and then put it back in to start riding'..... that's what she said
This was a killer review had me in stitches always need a good laugh. Get well soon and look forward to more honest reviews.😃
think of buying 1....u change my mind...thanks for saving my life beforehand...
Thank you for this review, stay safe 😌
From now on I don't buy any wheels, especially from KingSong, until I see enough reviews, especially from users who do detailed reviews, with good and bad things, presented in detail as in this video. Thank you Adam!
Kuji's reviews are beautiful but not detailed enough, the flaws are not highlighted as they should be, as they are in this video, they are minimized. At Kuji, I didn't really see real reviews like the ones made by Adam. Kuji only receives pre-production models and if it finds a defect the excuse is that "it is a pre-production model and they will PROBABLY fix it". Bullshit!
KingSong, from year to year, places more and more emphasis on quantity and not on quality.
I see more and more positive opinions about V11, many users amazed by the quality of the finishes (Wrong Way, we are waiting for a sincere opinion about V11 as you did with S18).
I hope that at the moment, KingSong will wake up (LOL, low chances) and promise full support for any reseller and customer at least a year from now.
Not King(LOCK)Song dictates the market but customers dictate because they have the money in their pocket, money with which King(LOCK)Song is helped not to go bankrupt.
And another great truth told by Adam: the wheel is overpriced!
Please excuse me, English is not my native language.
King (lock) song!
Grow up!
And go ride your Gotway.
i will never understand these guys who obviously lean way to hard upon accelerating and are surprised when the motor cuts out. Every euc has a limit some are higher than others- however if your leaning at a ridiculous angle well.... your doing it wrong
with this voltage sag battery will by trash after one season
Good point
Wrong!
Everyone who had a black out on KingSong EUC, move to MSP or MSX or Monster , recall kingsong with feeling of BIG MISTAKE
Excellent video Adam, the comedy section was so funny, being honest in your reviews is paramount and I think Kingsong listen to you be it good, bad or indifferent what you have to say, by the way, I also broke my wrist a couple of weeks ago, I hit a pothole on my partners Kugoo Kirin M4 scooter (not on my Monster or MSP or my Sherman) one wheel is safer than 2 😂 I wish you a quick recovery mate. Keep making the awesome reviews, I'm interested to hear what you think about the Veteran Sherman 😉
Clearly, not sponsored by Kingsong. Thanks! Also, good information about voltage sag. I'm aware of what that is, but hadn't really thought of it in relation to EUC safety. I think I experienced a cutout once on my KS16S when going fast through a pothole. It was not an easy fall.
first I have bought the V5F, and after watching so many S18 videos, I bought the S18, and now, V11 is coming will be here tomorrow by UPS, I can't give up the good suspension on S18, but also, I need the good headlight on V11. so buying both will solve all my problems.
Excellent review my friend. Fair critiques from an empirical standpoint. This wheel was never on my list, but I will recommend this video to anyone that is interested in purchasing an S18. Bravo. 🙂👍
Best review! Thank you!!! Will buy a v11. Keep going and get healthy
Great review! My s18 has cutout over 10 times in 3 days. It’s complete junk and should be recalled.
The block was there for the workers on the assembly line to assemble everything properly, but they just forgot to remove it in the first batch. That's the actual truth.
I laughed my ass off watching your Risitas segment, it's even funnier now that you know the reason 🤣
3:40 This is BIGGEST issue with high performance EUC's right now. The BMS doesn't communicate very much with the main board, all it sees is pack voltage. so the main board has no idea the BMS is about to cut power because the voltage is sagging too much and one cell drops below a limit. i wont buy one until theres more a more intelligent BMS, there should never be cutouts when its being ridden. its just stupid.
thank you for the video rip risitas
This happens with the Z10, also and probably every EUC, but I estimate my speed was over 55 kph, which is close to 40% above the rated max speed of 40 kph so I’m not surprised that the current was more than the system could support and it momentarily cut out.
That’s way better than burning out something and having unrecoverable complete power loss.
Adam I loved that video U inserted...wicked editing..very honest review of this wheel.
Wow worst kingsong I have seen for a while...it's incredible as the ks18 was so successful for them that they tried too hard and made a lemon
You don't know what your talking about. Have you ever ridden an S18 ? I have a 18xl and S18. Not one problem with either. No cut outs no app issues, nothing.
Brilliant review and love the laugh of the man about the block removal. Made me chuckle
Thanks a lot for the information...
I experienced a sudden engine failure with a KS16S (70-80% battery) during an acceleration phase at 25 km/h in normal conditions of use (flat road, cold and dry weather)...result: a memorable fall and no more confidence in this wheel. Electronic bug or design defect? Have you ever experienced a sudden engine stop in the middle of a race?
Had the s18 pre ordered with a while and with all the delays I cancelled it and have the v11 coming to me tomorrow hopefully.after watching this video im glad I changed it.love the honesty
Loving my S-18, but could someone help me??
I’m looking at this video stats on your app you showed … saw the amperage go up past 50 and then the battery % went down to zero?? What does that mean?
Also What was the one metric that was the reason it cut out!? What should I look for when watching my DarknessBot app?? I really don’t know what to look for there are so many different guages , voltage, amperage, temperature
Thanks for your time! Good video
Don't have an S18 myself, but still enjoyed your in depth review Adam. Thank you & Stay Safe! 🙏😎
Cool video! Where exactly did you buy that euc stand? I know you’ve pot but which one? Link?
“But St Peter, did you see his wild S18 riding video? Give him another chance?!”
Still contemplating getting this wheel. I'm 270lbs (122.5kg).
Battery cut out is an issue- but I'm no hard, fast rider. I never had a problem on a V10F (980wh, 130 less than S18).
I've even pushed a long line of shopping carts with the V10F.
And Kuji Rolls hard charged like a maniac with no problems in the S18.
So maybe it was just a glitchy wheel.
Besides,KS sells an external 780wh battery-u can charge while u ride!
Decisions, decisions....🤦🏾♂
Oh my god man, that KingSong response skit had me dying in laughter. Great review as always!
Good honest review, Correct, for the money this EUC cost kingsong should have installed a more powerful battery, Its engineers could figure it out, Inmotion knew better, its under powered v10 sold poorly for that reason.. Hopefully kingsong will improve the battery, the risk of cut out at high speed is too high
You people just don't get it! 😱
If you want a high speed wheel go buy a 100v wheel. The S18
Isn't a high speed wheel.
If KS put a bigger battery it would be a $2500 dollar wheel.
I was really looking forward to ordering this wheel next spring and giving my v8f to the old lady. Our streets here are garbage and was looking forward to a suspension wheel..
Please activate in EUC world Amperage levels on the top of the display so we can see the power put into the wheel acceleration and to show the max amps in that acceleration too...
I just got mine in today and found this video 😅😅😅. For some reason my king song only rides forward at an angle, i can’t ride it when it is straight
Wroooong way! I love that you said it the same like in your intro. 😂😂😎👍
Real glad I didn't get this, and went with a 16X instead, that I use both to commute to and from work, as well as on my free time. I would like a bigger wheel for certain things, but right now the V11 is probably the closest I can get to what I want before buying a second wheel.
man, the euc world recording at the start is scary, i accelerate that hard on my tesla all the time and the pedals dont move a cm, im only 65~kg riding weight though, but im not pushing my tesla at all...
What ever!
Hahahahaa so vertieft ins Video gwesen, dass ich voll aufs like vergessen hab letztes Mal... hahahaaa... na zum Glück schaue ich deine Videos immer mehrfach... sind einfach hammer... genial wieder mal lieber Adam... stay save und ride hard.
This crazy guy is one of the reasons i watch this video the 4th time now. And the one laughing in the video is also funny... thanks for entertaining us that awesome Adam... u r the best...🥳🥳🥳🤟
Love that you finally made a statement on the Kingsong geo locking s*^tfest! Everyone knows thats the Wrong Way (pun unintended😝) to go. It's their dealer network f*^kup so blaming it on their customers is the WRONG WAY (sorry bud, can't help myself🥰)!
This is not a gotway. This is what makes ks different. And like said the battery is smaller. 18 mph is good for me on this wheel. I would use gotway to go 30mph
Just mehhh.. Happy that i didn't order this one.
Very good review except for the focus of your camera. I hope that all the wheelers that order this wheel will not be too disappointed. Hopefully there are reviews like this to show not only some good points and not only people going down some stairs with the wheel (something I avoid to do white my Gotway’s). 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
the suspension of all wheels is incorrectly assembled at the factory. there is a lot of work to be done in the depreciation system (there are problems that cannot be solved).
Great honest review. 👏👍. You just saved me $2k and being pissed off with buyers remorse. These companies need honest critical reviews so they can make improvements on their products. Actually your body language and tone of voice said it all. Keep up the good work.
I bought one xD Watch my later videos :D
@@mr_wrongway Watching now. Thanks. What EUC is best bang for buck in your opinion? Beginner rider, but want for off road trails. Want bang for buck, but want quality and I don't mind the price if the quality is there. Not looking for the cheapest.
Guess I’ll stick with my tiny and might MTen3, hoping one day MTen3 will get suspension. 🥰
Same here...don't have it yet but I will and suspension is needed on NYC streets.
This will be my trail wheel. I am under no illusion that this is a powerful wheel with such a weak battery.
Mr Wrong Way! Can I ask about your Shima jacket (again....I asked you a few months back) I’m still having difficulty sourcing one in the U.K in the size I want. A few reviews say it’s a tight fit and to maybe go for a size larger than you normally would. Would you agree? Top video again, and love the honesty 😊
10V+ voltage sag?? Any chance the battery is faulty in a way? Or every S18 is like this? That's really bad
Really hoping we see some interesting updates to this wheel sometime in the near future. I'd really like to feel more confident in this purchase.
That was a great video Adam, I had quite a few good laughs watching that. I love KingSong wheels, but this one is truly a disappointment, I didn't have to pay all that much more to get the Sherman. I'm glad I never got this one. the 18XL is awesome. They really fell short on this wheel . I agree the motor should not be that powerful in that wheel. Thanks for a real review.
I think you really messed up the suspension settings
So funny video mixing🤣
You did it the right way this time👍🏻 once again pretty authentic and straight foward like it! KS have send you Notice removing this video like they did for Denis Agov?🤣🤣🤣
Rename-: Alfa-18
Hi Adam, I hope I'm not asking this the wroooong way, but this morning I had a thought. Aren't the battery & motor specs of the S18 very similar to the Tesla V2 and yet no one claims the Tesla V2 is not safe? What's the difference?
Is this the production version? when watching kuji's video i can see him do full acceleration on it without problems?
the mud guard is held on by 1 screw and glue so its the pre production model according to that detail. Production models have a mudguard held by 3 screws and glue i believe, one of the many changes/upgrades
Remove all the air from the suspension, push on it until it bottoms out, it will not bottom out on the suspension, it bottoms out on the EUC itself, I bet the blue o ring just fell off. Try it and let me know.
Have the battery slump been addressed in new batches?
What was that about 75kmh? Could you post a link to the person that did that?
I would like to have a EUC with suspension someday, but this "cool" design makes it look hollow and unfinished compared to the V11. Hopefully King-song will address these issues in their next design.
probably the quintessential review of this wheel yet. Other reviews seemed like paid promotion by comparison. It's a beautiful design but the execution of the handle is a shame.
Another honest review. 👍👍👍 Hope your arm or wrist heals well.
Would this wheel be a good one to start with?
