I buy many of my wheels from EWheels. Why? Because of their selection, price, and perhaps most importantly, Jason's dedication to customer satisfaction and his ongoing support of the community.

As I mentioned before, I was a little disappointed the Max didn't get much love during eevee's demo tour, until they linked up with you for your channel and ride! Looking forward to seeing some upcoming Max content as I'm seriously considering it for my 2nd wheel! Be well. -Shane

@Gebeleizis. 2 года назад

Hello Marty, Are you planning to do a normal range test with the Shermax? I'm very curious how it will perform compared to the other two 3.6kWh EUCs. I find it very professional and unbiased that you test them all in the same conditions. I'd just add the tire pressure, maybe you'd like to take that into account too, it plays a huge role. Thank you for everything you do, keep it up 👍

@ElectricUnicycles 2 года назад

If you look at my Sherman playlist you'll find a couple of videos where I rebuild the Sherman. One of those includes changing the tire.

@KevinRedmondWA Год назад

I have changed tires on my V11 and Shermax. Next time, here are the steps I’m following: put wheel in box, ship back to dealer, dealer changes wheels, send back to me. Charge me. I would never waste time changing tires on and EUC ever again. It was more difficult than tooth extraction.

@arevee9429 Год назад

All wheels are different, but thus far, I've had a couple of Begode wheels and haven't had any trouble with them. I've had a Sherman Max and it has not worked right since day one. There is after-sales support, but the issues have not been resolved after several months, so Shermans may be great wheels, but so far, the one I got has been a lemon. I'm sure after-sales support happens very quickly for RU-vid content creators. However, it's a little more "challenging" for this non-influencer. When the Sherman is working, it does work well.
