Kingsong 16x - What went WRONG!?!? Electric Unicycle | evX 

ru-vid.com

Love your reaction at 6:52. It's so interestingly true to your own feelings. Besides the way you describing the fat tyre causing "gyro effect" so distinctive and clearly one of the best for what I've seen on youtube. Keep up the good work and best of luck to become one of the best "reviewers/spokesperson " for our EUC world.

Great video. Would have loved to seen a "Changing the 16X Tire" video. If you switch the tire back, think about filming it :-)

Nice editing and video, looking forward to more!

Awesome video! I also love the original tire as much as I hated it in the beginning. For me the gyro effect caused it to be more stable when riding at high speeds. The only reason I didn't keep the original tire is because transitioning from a gyro to a non gyro wheel requires some time to adjust. So I think if this is your only wheel, stick with the original tire and learn to ride it.

16X is my first wheel and had only ridden my friends innmotion V8 before the 16x. Mine came with the CYT tire. After hearing all this talk about gyro effect and people having to get used to that I was a little nervous that I would like it. Prob helped that I didn’t have much to compare to and that I mostly learned on the 16x but man, I love this wheel!! I completely agree that It likes a little forward lean and weight shift in the turn. The more I ride it, the more I love it! I can just rip this thing around and it delivers! One reviewer said it’s like you fight the wheel a little. I’ve ridden motorcycles for years and this wheel makes me feel right at home, leaning and shifting my weight in turns. It becomes rewarding when you get it down and super stable in my opinion.

When I first got my z10 I was in despair, it was so foreign, now I won’t ride anything but the 16x or z10

Great content I have been reviewing the 16x so I found it very useful. Cheers

Wow! What an accurate and honest video. I own 4 wheels and have been struggling to fall in love with my new 16x. You articulated the issues and the techniques needed to tame it very accurately. I like the incredible range, the look of it, the lights and the audio quality. However, I am not very happy with the heavy weight and the general feel of it after two weeks of experience with it. While I frequently ride on gravel trails, grass, etc. I am not one to suit up in full body armor and race through the woods with my wheels. So I find that on sidewalks and streets, the wide tire is quite grabby and it scares you once in a while when it grabs grooves etc. I find it is a lot more tiring on the roads than other wheels . Not as relaxing and nimble as my 16S and 18L. It is so heavy that it's a real burden to carry it up a flight of steps. I've considered selling mine but, as you said in the video, there are times when the power and capabilities win you over. Maybe I'll try a tire change. Again, GREAT VIDEO and your mixed emotions about the 16X mirror mine!

wow great video and excellent quality!!! this is something I can relate to I went from a tesla to a msx, me personally I like the fat tyre

Awesome, subscribed !

Nice video! Looking forward to the next one!

When o bought my Z10 it felt very strange to me and i did not like it, but after experementing with different tire pressure (now 28 psi) and riding it for about 2-3 weeks. I love it! Now when i ride the Gotway msuper it feels just as strange as i thought the Z10 felt in the beginning. I think i would like the 16X with stock tire.

Thank you for the video I think I got some information from here.

Brilliant review Thank you

Great video! I love the edits, the music and the content. I’m glad you compared the tires because I have been hearing so much about it and I really don’t want to change. Listening to your honest review made me feel that it’s definitely not a necessity more of a choice and that gave me comfort so thanks. I started on a V-8 then I bought a used tesla which ended up having some issues and now I have the 16 X which I love. Looks like we both will be doing more videos on the 16 X. I look forward to checking out more. check mine out when you get a chance, happy trails ... ride safe.

Great videos as always. I'm not sure which between the KS16X and InmotionV12 is a better option. They seem to have simillar traits and they are about $200 apart in term of pricing. Which one would you suggest? Thanks in advance.

Love you're video setup. Exciting, clean and informative. I recommend trying medium or soft mode. Love the wife comment lol

If you ride motorcycles, specifically cafe style bikes, this is a natural way to ride. I've tried a few of these and found that my many years of riding motorcycles made this an easy transition for me. Now that I'm planning to purchase one I'll keep the tire issue in mind. That stock tire looks like it has a flatter profile. Like on motorcycles, tires are everything. They should give you options when ordering

very nice and honest review of the 16X, the 3" tire is indeed a different approach and requires some adjustment of the rider, but i believe that once you get used to it it will become an appendage to the rider just like the thinner tire.

Excellent video thank you. If you ever switch your tire back to the original one could you please make a video of it?

Good review - great filming and nice delivery! I have subscribed 😁 I have a Z10 and I enjoy the ride challenge, so I can see where you're coming from re the 16X stock tyre. Good that 16X riders actually have the choice, but I don't quite get why swapping one 2.5 inch tyre for another 2.5 inch tyre makes such a difference? Is it to do with recommended pressure? Or tread pattern?

Insane level editing skills

Great video. I also have the Z10 and 16X. I really don’t think the stock tire is that bad. It’s definitely different from the 18XL. I don’t possess the know how to change the tire anyway so it’s not really something I have as an option. I wouldn’t mind trying it but like I said I don’t know how to do it.

Wow bro loved your new channel. At least this video.. Impressive job great editing. I'm thinking to buy the ks 16x next month through ks.. They made me an offer so i think i will pick one. Sub to your channel. Great job hope to see more videos from you. I would loved to have your quality when i started. Have a nice day bro

Great content

That turning seems normal, i have to do this on my msx

Awesome 😎

Nice Wheel this 16X 👍

My 16 X is on the way this week. Mine sharing the model of the tire you purchased? You mentioned a CST tire? On my 16s I got tired of flats so shot some slime in the tube and it’s working well for extra puncture protection.

Im very thankful to have watched your video before making a decision to buy this wheel. I have ridden another wheel that felt that same exact way to me. It wanted to stay upright while I was making turns. What program do you use for editing? Phone/ computer edited?

Well Done

Thanks God i have keep my mcm5, no wobbles with my 3,2 Bar in tire and just 2,125". It's looks like sport vehicle vs over EUC fatbikes. I don't wanna be beta tester for 1900$.

Please tell us about your equipment. Your helmet is awesome

Hello thank you for your answer, but I bought my Kingsong 16X with the original CST tire which seems kinda slippery to me when I ride on tile floor, or on paved roads (I live in Paris). I wanna try to replace it by the Chao Yang tires. I trust Chao Yang because I already used this brand on my MSUPER 3 to have more stability. And obviously, Chao Yang is doing good job on MSUPER 3. As CST, Chao Yang also has a puncture protection. On your videos, you showed how to manage to make turns by using legs and body, it's very helpful, but could you please precise what kind of riding mode did you use ? Hard one or soft one ? The hard one is more stable in my opinion, but pedals are so rigid by the way.

Nice one, thanks for the comments, if I end up getting the 16X and may not change the tire then haha.

is there a self-balancing EUC for disabled riders (like, using the handle - but stays upright like a Segway) ? this would be a game changer for someone w/ paralysis in one lower leg.

Great video, great contribution to the EUC community. What do you prefer? KS 16 or 18?

Your body syncs up with your wheel, that’s why getting used to a gyro effect wheel takes so long. It makes an extremely stable riding platform and an awesome carving machine. Other wheels will seem fancy an unsubstantial

Ugh, I keep flipping back and forth on the next EUC I want. I have a Inmotion V8, but do I get another 16” wheel? Was leaning towards the KS16X then toward a Nikola....maybe an MSX... and now you got me thinking about that KS16X again!!

Great video, I have had a very limited experience on the 16X and immediately notice a little bit of the Z10 effect, which in and of it'self it's not a bad thing I am just not used to it. Having said that my question is: have you had the chance to try out the MSX especially in the 100V version? Admittedly I may suffer from a Gotway bias but I am convinced that the MSX still reigns supreme and not just in terms of speed. The whole riding experience is still unmatched imho. It's a beast of a machine and is as sharp as a knife in terms of responsiveness

I can't imagine how the loss of the more precise maneuverability of the 2.5" is something good. I see in your vid that you miss the 3", but IMHO you didn't explain quite well why. Do you feel the bumps and street imperfections less? Does it give a safer feel? Compared to the 18L or XL, which do you think is the most comfortable to ride the streets? Sorry for all the questions, but I am currently choosing between the 16X and the 18L/XL, having riden only on the 18 ones. Thanks and props for the nice vid!

I think your helmet is tsg. I can't remember the exact letters but they look really good and trying to find a dealer where I can try on the different sizes. How do you like the helmet and do you know of any dealers? Amazon doesn't have that page anymore.

Hi there. What is the difference in ride feel on a less/no gyro tyre 16X versus a 18XL? And is there still a bit more Z10-ism when cornering at high speeds than the 18XL, or are they pretty much the same?

Hi evX again, I also have the KS-16X and I'm wondering which are the two tires references (the stock one and the one behaving as a 2,5" tire)? Thank you very much

Interesting insight on the 3" wheel. I'm 6'1" and 210lbs. Would you recommend the 16X for myself as a EUC beginner?

I fucking 100%agree with you brother. I feel like I’m turning on a motorcycle but this is a unicycle.

Moral of the story: all things new seem awkward at first. But muscle memory is a funny thing. Almost gives us a bias because we think things should feel a certain way. Until we are trying something that does all the things it should but in a different way. Our initial response is usually uncomfortable and awkward. Until we build new muscle memory which makes it more intuitive. It all comes down to neural passageways and how flexible they are, weather we know it or not.

I’m still trying to figure out the best wheel for me to start out. I like riding my Onewheel pint off road but if I do commute it’s only a 4 mile commute. I can ride a real unicycle but never tried an euc and every time I try to purchase one I get overwhelmed

Hello, what kind of tire are you gonna to replace the original one which seems kinda slippery to you ?

Have you gotten a chance to try an Msuper? I'd love to try the kingsong if your interested in meeting up.

Your a natural

Hi,which tire is better?Now sold only with 3 inch tire.

Nice

Hey brother what kinda helmet are you wearing I want one

Which one better 16x or 18xl ..am trying to get one but can't decide which one better .

Annnnnd if given more time .. maybe you'll love the Z10 also!!!! JUST MAYBE????

what psi do you recommend for the ks18xl, i have it at 36psi and sometimes experience wobble at high speeds on asphalt. i'm 200lbs so i thought higher tire pressure is needed. any suggestions?

Will you recommend KingSong 16X than Inmotion V8F for beginners?

Nice vid bro. I rode with a RU-vidr lol

where did this guy come from? never seen him out with any of the EUC guys. Say what's up to NYCEB some time, come out to the NYEF, the largest rideable festival that we help fillipachi throw. Nice vid.

About to purchase One of these EUC Kingsong 16x Kingsong 18xl or Msuper X Ninebot One z10 GARBAGE Which one do you recommend My weight is 240 pounds size 11/30 shoe

Whee can I get your helmet, love it! 😍

Hey buddy I am a first timer to this unicycle stuff. I am more a skateboard/scooter rider right now. What would be a decent first WHEEL FOR ME?🙋‍♂️ Any advise would be appreciated 👍

Works well but bowl is really shallow.

Marty, did you review this wheel?

Thank you so much. Tell me of yur helmet

Hey where did you get the ewhere decal on your wheel case?

4:12 hi what is your helmet? Thanks!

Just buy a second wheel! In all seriousness, this is a huge discussion in the onewheel community as well, especially on the Pint. Tires are really important to everything that uses a tire.

Just install some Kuji pads and you're golden.

Where is this product made?

How does it compare to 18xl

The transformation from RIDER to E-MOTIONEER

I really liked this video, even though it's a little dated now.

you damn clickbait god :P you are doing it right though. not too much, not too little

Wish I could afford one

hey evX, You are right in many but I dont agree with you in some points. I really like your videos. you could check out some of my ks16x vids :D

3:37 Биг бубс... у колеса это тоже есть? )))

I just hit 1000 km on the 16X on the stock tire 🥳. As of this moment, I am the most experienced rider of the 16X by a wide margin. Take a moment to appreciate that folks. Spending 'an hour' on this wheel is not giving it a 'fair shot'. This dude completely missed out on appreciating the strengths of this tire, and expanding their riding skills. There is nothing wrong with that, but understand the reviewer prematurely dismissed before understanding - just like someone complaining that an airplane can't fit on a road. For a more balanced view of what to expect, you owe it to yourself to look at my day to day wheelog on the stock tire: forum.electricunicycle.org/topic/14918-kingsong-16x-reviewwheelogjournal-🐸/ You'll notice I had exactly the same opinions on this tire early on - but I pushed through that adaptation phase, and now am thoroughly loving it. As for the CST tire: that's kind of old news. Eddiemoy has experimented with several better alternatives if you're going for the non-gyro effect that you're used to.

lol @ the click bait title. Spoiler: evX likes his new 2.5" tire, but he also sorta likes his old 3.5" tire, and absolutely nothing went "WRONG" (I just saved you 10 minutes!)

Change the title to include "Tire".

Real world problems...............🤪

what is this music ugh

Музон говно. Всё остальное норм.
