i wanna get these so bad they look cool as hell and i like that they're still above 100mm but not like 120mm or bigger. Like the tread on them . Definitely gotta order a set to replace my 120mm since those are beat up
The difference in price from the 105mm cloudwheels and these is about $100AUD, are the rovers worth it (especially in comfort) if I don't ride in the wet at all?
The rubber on these wheels is much gripper than the 105 series, it instills more confidence overall. The comfort as well is great, it’s a hard wheel, but compared to a street wheel it’s much more smoother over rougher roads
They look great! I'm looking at these as an option for my Lycaon GR2021 since the OEM wheels are a bit rough to me and vibrations from the roads in my area are terrible! Hopefully these will improve my riding comfort...? Great video as usual!
@@TheSpiral01 for me, anything larger than 105-110mm and you lose some serious overall battery range, motors have to work harder, plus stopping distances are quite reduced with my 120mm Cloudwheel Donuts
You don't need tread on a skateboard wheel, it's not physically possible to hydroplane because there is no air in the tire. Hydroplaning happens when the pressure of the water trying to get out of the way of the tire exceeds the air pressure inside the tire. Because bicycle tires have a smaller contact patch and higher air pressure than car tires they're incapable of hydroplaning, and a urethane wheel has NO air, so it's going to require even more pressure to lift the tire away from the road surface.
So, the cycles are ALL rubber, they are super squishy, these have more of a street wheel feel with AT grip, the rubber tread pattern gives you confidence in the grip and the dampening core gives you the comfort of going over cracks and going off road even
So, they really aren’t designed to slip, these are rubber outside with the dampening core inside. If you slide these I wouldn’t recommend them, I’d go with something that is more of a actual urethane style wheel
Thanks for the review, it’s a super helpful for the future. Since you’ve ridden in the city, how do you think these will handle rougher NYC roads over the ATs?
Currently watching my tracking like a hawk waiting for my Rovers to come today! Man i seriously love this sport after just getting my board a couple months ago! Thank you for the videos that encouraged me to drop the cash and get one not knowing if i would love it or be terrified!
May I ask what board you got? I'm looking into getting my first board, looking for budget friendly and fun currently looking into the Tynee mini 3 sl with these rover cloudwheels
I saw a prototype of them, not sure cause I didn’t get to ride them but I believe I’ll be testing them out as well. Not sure on a date though, they looks great so we shall see!
I have to see what the range test on these are, the Mad105 were better at range than the cyclones, by a few miles. These feel Like they are promising! I’m working on a range test video as well!
The new cloud wheels would be my choice than, comfort is there and performance with the rubber grip is there as well, cyclones wear down very quickly over time
How do they compare to the 115mm rubbers for ride and given there's very little tread how does the rubber tread hold up? I know it's only a first time review but most of this is just brand stroking. For $300 delivered I would really prefer to know how long they're going to last.
So, I’ve put about 80 miles on them over the past two weeks. Just running around doing errands and lunch time rides. They have a good grippy rubber feel on them. I haven’t noticed any crazy wear down yet, but obviously that’s not really a “long” time on them.
These wheels are softer because of the rubber, you’re going to loose acceleration off the line with any bigger wheels but it’ll give you more top end speed!

Agree the 110 size is a very good “every day purpose” size you’re not all terrain status but not low street wheel
I like the rover 110rs on my atlas pro but I do wish they were 120s.
Nice wheels

Nice man! LOL...I went the same way with this and put them on my S2.
Solid board and solidnwheels
I need this bad boi.

So damn happy they made these for hub motors,
really hoping they make a blue foam core variant!
Yes the donut adapters were great!
@@TheSpiral01 haven't personally tried the Rovers yet, but some say they're not as soft on road vibration compared to older Cloudwheels

*Nice to see these as an option,* now I want to see them make some regular urethane ones, Flat contact patch, foam core.
Ohhhhhh that would be interesting
Those DJI mics sound great when you're riding
Yes sir! It was crazy windy as well! Love these things!!!

Try riding a flat urethane wheel in the rain and see if you slip, let me know when you do.
super excited to try these. Ordered some over a week ago, but still haven't shipped. Hurry up cloudwheels!
Enjoy! I think you’ll love them!!
I’m my opinion I like the cyclone wheels better. I feel like the tread on those wheels will be gone in 200-300 miles
Great review! What is the comfort and feel comparison to the Meepo Cyclones?

@@DrewElia thx Drew!
You’re welcome!
@@DrewElia if you have to chose one set of wheel ? Only for confort and absorption, what would be your choice?
I have found the Mad 105s my wheel of choice. A little bumpier but I love the connection to the road. What do you think of these versus those?
In your next video can you try and do tight turning circle and then increase speed until the wheels start to slide
What is it that you’re looking to see tested? Sliding?
@@DrewElia I wanna know how much grip they have when hard cornering. If they do slide is it predictable or will the wheels skip and throw you off?
So, they really aren’t designed to slip, these are rubber outside with the dampening core inside. If you slide these I wouldn’t recommend them, I’d go with something that is more of a actual urethane style wheel
Thanks for the review, it’s a super helpful for the future. Since you’ve ridden in the city, how do you think these will handle rougher NYC roads over the ATs?
They will be better than street wheels, and you won’t get flats!
@@DrewEliathanks again! I ended up picking a set up for the AT2+ with your link 👊🏼

What do you thing about back fire 120mm mo wheel. Should i wait they release or buy this one now

Nice rev bro, keep it coming 🔥
Very much appreciated my man! stay tuned to the channel, I have a surprise give away coming up soon.....
So excited for these - my city roads are terrible, so hoping for these more comfortable hydrowheels
These will help smooth out the road!
Man, I need to get out on my board more.
Let’s gooooo!!!!!
Are they heavy.?
Wish i could ride with you dude. Im in union county.
When the weather warms back up we have group rides on the shore here. Come through!
Is there a trade/swap program Lolol. I have 105s I rode once. 🤷🏻♂️
Bruh, THANK YOU! You’re nuts!!! Are you talking about the cloud wheels 105 or mad wheel 105?
@@DrewElia cloud
Those look nice.
I need to try these!
If you like cloudwheels these are definitely worth a shot!
How did you film that? A drone?
My insta360 x3 I’ll be doing. A tech Tuesday on it, cause I have a lot of people asking me about it as well
What would you recommend between these, the MAD wheels, or Cyclones for every day commuting?
I have to see what the range test on these are, the Mad105 were better at range than the cyclones, by a few miles. These feel
Like they are promising! I’m working on a range test video as well!
@@DrewElia If range isn't a factor and primarily concerned about comfort and performance does one stand out?
The new cloud wheels would be my choice than, comfort is there and performance with the rubber grip is there as well, cyclones wear down very quickly over time
did you have to adjust your gear ratio and pole pairs?
Just my wheel diameter that’s all

I'm a bit late into the game but your referral link doesn't seem to do anything? I wouldn't want you to miss out on those referral bonuses.
Thanks for the heads up, try it now!
@@DrewElia Tried my best; it didn't seem to do anything still but I hope you get something.
Do you think the backfire g2 would handle these wheels without losing to much power. Also is the regular cloudwheel a softer ride in your opinion
These wheels are softer because of the rubber, you’re going to loose acceleration off the line with any bigger wheels but it’ll give you more top end speed!
did you get only two wheels?
Yes, Just practicing my manuals
Cool Shirt!
Thanks brother! It’s actually quite comfortable!
ive always wanted a street wheel feel ride but with cloudwheel comfort. Do these fit the descriotion?
This is a street style wheel, definitely more comfortable than a street wheel
Rubber cores??
It’s the damping core system with rubber tread, so you have grip white having a softer core for cracks and whatnot
