Size matters. One of those wheels has superior range and fits under your desk, and the other one offers a little more stability at high speed. Thanks for such a great comparison.

@Duf Год назад

V13 offers some more than that but yep for me, SS is still my choice.

@ETAonTheEUC Год назад

Thank you for this great comparison!

@Duf Год назад

Glad you enjoyed it!

@flhandster4395 Год назад

Great comparison. I’d like to have heard about the suspension comparisons. Thanks for the video. Stay safe! 😎👍🏼

@Duf Год назад

Yea I should have talked about that but the SS suspension feels significantly better to me.

@markjerstad4664 Год назад

Thanks for the comparison Duf. Would have liked a little feedback on how the wheels feel/ride/maneuver compared to one another. Acceleration, braking, turning, overall feel.

@Duf Год назад

Yea that is a gap I should have covered. The SS feels more agile and the suspension is better. I am not a full lean type of rider but to me the power levels felt pretty similar. I had no issue braking the V13 but again I don't put a wheel typically into a situation where I have to stop on a dime.

@KiwiMark67 Год назад

I think the V13 is a great wheel. But after putting over 1,000km on my Sherman S, I realise that the Sherman S is everything I need - plenty enough speed, power & range for what I want/need. I just don't need a faster wheel and I don't really need to be going 80-90kph while balanced on a single wheel. I have done 3 rides that exceeded 100km on my Sherman S and still had over 25% range remaining on each of those rides, I'm planning on going for a >100km ride again today as well - the V13 just could not do such a ride unless i slowed right down. For me the Sherman S is a perfect match for my use case, but I did add Grizzla Flow pads and I change to NyloNove pedals as well as buying the upgraded seat with side pads. The V13 is great, but I just don't need it (or want to spend the money to have it).

@CrunchyTire Год назад

Why do you ride? If you just got a sherman s then a V13 shouldn't even be on your radar. Too many in this community seem to not ride as much as they do obsess over the latest and debatably greatest wheel releases. People dont even have their pre orders yet and already looking at the next release. like guys chill. Go enjoy your sherman.

@KiwiMark67 Год назад

@@CrunchyTire I enjoy reading about various new wheels because I have curiosity. The V13 is an interesting wheel, so I've read about it and watched videos of it. It is useful to understand what other wheels are available and how they compare, especially if someone asks me if I would recommend buying the Sherman S. The more I ride my Sherman S and the more I read about other wheels (like the V13) the more I believe that the Sherman S is all that I need for how I ride and the more happy I become with my decision to have bought my Sherman S. I won't be buying a V13 because I don't really have much of a use case for one. I have my Sherman S and a smaller wheel (V12HT) and I also have an e-MTB with the Bafang Ultra (1,000W) motor and dual batteries (1,512Wh total) - I'm pretty good for PEVs for pretty much any use case I can think of. If I want to ride at 90kph or more then I won't be doing it on an EUC, I'd opt for my 1,000cc motorcycle instead because it can move at higher speeds MUCH more safely.

@Duf Год назад

SS fits all my needs as well.

@OzcroEUC Год назад

@360vroomers Год назад

Thanks which one is more fun to ride at 35-45 mph in your opinion?

@Duf Год назад

V13 is most stable at speed but not by a huge margin over the SS

@patrickmckowen2999 Год назад

Good vid 👍 If I needed a daily driver for commuting, V13. A fun all round weekender , ShermS. But I think they are both over priced. I need a fun weekender, won't be either of these🤣

@Duf Год назад

Fair enough!

@ElectricUnicycles Год назад

I approve of this video 🙂 I'm seeing more and more evidence of people doing group buys to chop $1k off the price of a lot of wheels. That what happens when the prices go insane like they are. I thought the front bumpers on the V13 acted as a great kickstand - that's how I stored mine for a couple of months. I was on cement though.

@ElectricUnicycles Год назад

@Dev Guy You can certainly participate in group buys, otherwise known as underground dealers. You just have to know where to find them. Check out the Description in my latest video to join Lem's group where you can buy Begode or Extreme Bull wheels at >25% off the big dealer prices

@ElectricUnicycles Год назад

@Dev Guy Ah, Canada. Yeah, that makes it a bit tougher 😞

@Duf Год назад

Yea on cement it would work but still a very slight bump and it would fall. I see you inching towards being an EUC dealer Marty!!

@360vroomers Год назад

One way for prices to go down is through economies of scale. So let’s convert more people to ride 😁

@ElectricUnicycles Год назад

@@Duf LOL - never 🙂

@AndreiPetunin Год назад

How does the bearing suspension on s22 compare to the ss? I’ve just installed mine and it’s unbelievably comfortable. Almost car like comfort.

@Duf Год назад

Bearings make a huge difference on the S22, it's cery comfortable now, I would say very close to the SS

@AndreiPetunin Год назад

@@Duf I can't imagine it getting any more comfortable with s22! It's really great.

@MrIrrationalSmith Год назад

I live in Boston. InMotion is the only company making waterproof wheels. I have a little Begode Mten4 for fun, but otherwise my commuting wheels are the V13 and V12.

@Duf Год назад

Understandable

@digi_tv Год назад

I live in Fayetteville NC. Hella rain here. V12 HT. My 1st wheel. I'm probably getting the Sherm S next.

@n_ux Год назад

The V13 is my 1st big wheel. For commuting and going around town. I wasn't looking for crazy range. I don't have to go to the next town over. Quiktrips have charging outlets. And there are a lot of them around where I live. I also needed something safe that I can take inside my job without the battery catching fire. Looking at you BEGODE. I was going to get the Sherman S. But then I was wondering what if my suspension fork got damaged. And then the wheel brake down to change a tire. I was like okay. I don't wait to take apart all of these screws. Then I made my decision for the V13 That's why I felt like it was smart for them to be able to convert from suspension to non suspension. I can monitor my battery cells. And run diagnostics on app. I think it'll hold me over for 2 years or more. I have a feeling once new wheels. Have about 5000 wh as the standard. Great torque: features: safety: modular design: reliability: sodium ion battery technology (could lower cost of batteries. I hope in the future they incorporate these practices. I look forward to the future of these EUC companies.

@Duf Год назад

V13 is a great wheel, I'm glad you are digging it.

Awesome review Duf. I'm only 5ft 8, the v13 would be far to big for me

@Duf Год назад

I am sure you could ride it but yea it would run pretty far up your legs.

Ewheels is promising that we will be hearing something soon, they said December, then January, then late February. Alien rides say that they have them and will ship the next day. How hard can it be to get stainless steel bolts. The suspension is falling apart in the V13. IDK who is riding the V13 that I paid 4000 USD for but I am hoping that it is working towards me.

@Duf Год назад

Hope you get one soon!

If you still have the v13 could you please measure the distance from the front roll bar to the rear roll bar and post it a reply 😉. Much appreciated and could you do the same on the sherman s. Working on something special more info coming this fall.

@@spartacus3570 Keep in mind though that the V13 is a 22” tire. And that plush tire adds to the overall mass of the wheel’s presentation. 😎

@hereallyfast Год назад

I'm not going to lie. I don't know if I'm going to go with e-wheels again for anything. It's 2 months since they said I would have the wheel and I don't have the wheel

@Duf Год назад

No ETA?

@CrunchyTire Год назад

The only way you can prevent this is not buying items until they're actually in stock. There are so many variables between the china warehouse and ewheels inventory floor. maybe ewheels shouldn't be giving estimates on arrival but if they are told January by suppliers, and tell their customers January as a result, is it their fault the suppliers missed the ETA? If it makes you mad not getting the product you pre ordered, imagine how the business owner feels not getting the stock he paid for and potentially affecting his business? No one is winning by delaying your order lol

@tanknd804 Год назад

I'm feeling the same way about ewheels! I canceled my order on the V13 (after hearing about the issues) maybe 2 weeks ago. They said there would be a full refund.....but they shorted me $100! I've sent 3 emails asking about this in a week. No response to any of them!😡

Inmotion is not the customer focused company the community thinks it is. Hopefully it doesn't take someone spending $4600 before they figure that out. Luckily it was a V8F that led me to see who they really are. V12 is one of my favorite wheels ever, but its my last inmotion.

@stevescott5858 Год назад

Either they do what KS did with the s22 slider situation, and add battery for more range, or they won’t sell many units, until they lower the price!
