What happens when you stick a GT-S Series motor on a GT? They say it gives you more torque, but what happens to your top speed? Jeff tries every possible version of the GT and GT-S Series motor, hub, and stator combinations to find out the truth! Honestly, the results were a little surprising.

My personal favorite would probably be MTE5+N52 magnet put on stock GT stator with GT battery and GTV ESC, tons torque from this set up, range is decent and cusion from 5 inch would make slow trail climb really enjoyable.

Great breakdown of these stats. I'm a speed freak 😊🤙. I already knew in my head that the S-series motor dropped in the Gt would have lower end speed so now im happy I didn't pursue with the purchase. I'm inching closer each week to my 1k mile marker & my motor is doing great so ima keep at it & just keep advancing in other upgrades. Happy you made this video because it proved what I had already thought ✌️😎. Also just wanted to throw in a shout out to you all at the FL that I'm more than happy with my latest upgrades & even tho I've been using the Ignite hex foam over from 1Wparts I'm actually starting to really enjoy yals grip tape for some reason I just feel more locked in on my Kush 🤙.

@SeanPaulNotTheSinger 5 месяцев назад

So...as much as I would love to see you guys do another video, I have a GT and GT-S with MTE hubs. Gotta charge them 100, but can get the free wheel speeds.

@SeanPaulNotTheSinger 5 месяцев назад

GT with the MTE (n48) and Enduro 555 = 33/34 MPH GT-S with the MTE (n48) and Maxxis Rain = 41 MPH Ran the test four times with each board to ensure consistent readings. I'm not going to swap stators around, but it was certainly interesting. Regardless of this result, we really should see what the torque and heat differences are for the various setups, you know, for the 5% of min/max riders out there (and the morbidly curious, like me).

would love a video of real world comparisons between the following boards... Standard GT vs. Gt with GTS Motor vs. GT with MTE Hubs Test types - Off the line drag race to compare acceleration and top speeds with a rider - Torque test on a hill or two - Battery longevity with each board Answer this question: For those who dont want GTS that are looking for motor upgrade solutions for the GT, what can you expect to gain from each motor in real world circumstances. No need for the GTS, we all know that the GTS will out perform any GT variation in Torque and speed, but not in battery life. Would love love love to see the a visual comparions of real world ride tests between your MTEs and the GTS motor.

@surfdado 5 месяцев назад

Excellent video guys! One thing you should have pointed out is the impacts of this speed reduction at less than full charge. People who say "30MPH is plenty" seem to forget that at 30 percent charge top freewheel speed is only 25MPH, while nosedive speed will be even lower than that...

@ChristopheGUIVANT 5 месяцев назад

Totally agree with you... a video with a benchmark that would push the speed of a machine to the nosedive would allow us to know more about the real limits of a Onewheel. All this of course with the weight of the rider, the type of terrain, the wind speed etc... The problem is that the data on this limit does not exist on a Onewheel whereas on a VESC the maximum power percentage reached is measurable.

I don't ride my OW for speed, so the top end data is kind of lackluster. The torque is the key bit I would want to know if spending that $900 is worth it or not. I only ride my GT at around 19-20mph, which it can already do, I just don't like how paranoid I have to be of nose dives because the torque isn't there. Especially offroad.

Shoot, you could spend way less than that, swap to a N52 MTE and gain all the sidewall AND all the torque of the GT-S motor swap. That's the big brain move right there.

@x6737 5 месяцев назад

It seems like the magnet difference is really the only benefit from the GTS motor on the GT. Without additional voltage, it doesn't seem like you can take advantage of the improved GTS stator. This has been super informative for me, since I was leaning toward the GTS motor purchase for the additional torque (I weigh 200lbs and broke my leg on the GT last year...). Now I'm wondering why I should pay for that when I can get a 5" MTE hub with improved magnets PLUS a new Enduro for less, especially since it seems like the magnets are the only thing I'm paying for with a new GTS motor.... Thoughts?

ITS NOT ALL ABOUT THE MAGNETS. Magnets play a huge roll in torque but what you aren't talking about more than saying windings is the KV.. the GTS stator is definitely a lower KV hence the more Voltage. Anytime you use more voltage you lower the kv.. that's why the gts runs cooler.

Imagine spending $900 to make your board SLOWER??!?! ... this shows just how far future motion will go to decieve their customers and take your money. I would not trust them at all that the new motor will increase torque on the gt, though in electrical theory it would work as the voltage going into the kotor is the same.. JEFF test the resistance between the + and - motor connections on gt and gts motors. Im gonna bet that the resistance is greater on th.e gts, which is exactly where your voltage is going, it could still in theory have more torque ( more windings = greater ohms )
