Awesome video Great comparisons I have always loved the shinko 241 over all other wheels having the soft rubber makes it 👌🏼 It doesn't last as long as the shinko 244 but in my opinion is a far better tire I have had both on my sur-ron and the 244 slips out far more often off road or in wet conditions 241 for the win 🤙🏼

Nice pieces of equipment! I'm also interested by a mirror like you've on your helmet, I've a wrist model right now.

Awesome detailed review. Thank you so much. I can confirm your experience with off road vs street tire. I put a Heindenau K66 on my Master thinking it would improve high speed stability. The exact opposite was true. Really prone to wobbles and train tracking. Really scary above 60km/h. So strange as it was great at low speed as you found with the Michelin PS2. The only reason it seems to go for a street tire is if you need to corner super fast and need the EUC to stay a bit more upright. I actually find the CST-186 really good on my S18 but not so great on my Master. I think this might be because the rim is narrower on the S18 and the CST 186 is designed for a narrower rim. How wide is the rim on the Lynx?

I think your inside toe pressure is making your wheel wobble on turns....bring a little bit more pressure on inside heel. Excellent video, great human you are!

what about 50GB?

Most important bit to me was that you had to stop using eucworld with this wheel. I just received my lynx, and have now had 4 safety margin warnings when set to 20% in eucworld. In each of those margin warnings, i wasn't pushing the lynx nearly as hard as my cp50s, which never got near the 20% safety margin, no matter how hard i pushed it (fast steep hill climbs etc). Time to use LK app for this wheel 👊

Electric 🛴 scooter rider here looking for solid recommendations for high quality wrist guards and other protective gear. TIA

Very good review. Really in-depth and informative. Makes me feel better about my new Lynx. Thank you!

Excellent review Jono, very comprehensive like an engineer would do. I learned a lot, appreciated. 6 pac Gord

Very thorough review 👍

So, where does leaperkim go from here? I feel like the linx is the pinnacle of EUC's, what could they add to their next wheel?

Great Video Jono. Thank you. WATT-HOURS really don't mean much. It is AMP-HOURS that tell how far you can go on a charged battery. Somehow, we need to get wheel manufacturers to tell us the AMP-HOURS we are buying without the WATT-HOUR/VOLT camouflage disguising the really important info of "AMP-HOURS." I have a Patton and a Sherman-S. With the Patton, I full-charge, ride gentle for 4-to-5-miles, keep it under 33-mph and then I get a 40-mile ride before low battery beeps. With the Sherman-S, I full-charge, ride as fast as I want from the start, keep High-Speed-Mode "off" (so 42-mph), and get 57-to-60-miles before low battery beeps. ... The WATT-HOUR and VOLTS announced for each wheel do "not" tell you what you need to know about a wheel's range. ... It is AMP-HOURS that matter. All Wheels: WATT-HOURS divided by VOLTS equals AMP-HOURS. Patton: 2200-WATT-HOURS divided by 126-VOLTS equals 17.46-AMP-HOURS. Lynx: 2700-WATT-HOURS divided by 151-VOLTS equals 17.88-AMP-HOURS. Sherman-S: 3600-WATT-HOURS divided by 100-VOLTS equals 36-AMP-HOURS. The Sherman-S has double the AMP-HOURS of either the Patton or the Lynx. If you like to cruise for hours at a time, and I do, the Sherman-S is your wheel. If you don't ride too far and want quick responsive torque and have about $3000(US) then the Patton is a good choice. If you don't ride too far and want quick responsive torque and have about $4000(US) then the Lynx is a better choice. ... Everyone. Ride well. Good journeys to all. ... NOTE: I am a 90-kilo/200-pound rider.

On the acceleration and breaking test were both wheels on soft medium or strong? Thanks

Jono, I'm wanting a Shinko 241. When I went to the Shinko website, there's 15 part nunber options. What part number did you use on your Lynx? Loving that 20.4" diameter.😊

I lowered my pedals and have no issues offroading. I definitely removed that nasty kickstand because it will catch on things and it will also reach out and bite you if you have a minor crash. I got my toe pads from EUC clubhouse and they are great. I'm at 1500 miles and I've had zero issues. Definitely interested in a better tire. Maybe the Shinko 244. It's the funnest damn toy I've ever had in my life. I've only been riding for about six months now and I'm 59 years old so I keep my speeds under 35 mph.

1600 miles on my lynx so far with the stock street tire. Best upgrade was the pedal lowering kit from ewheels. I'm ready to change my tire, and looking at getting the bespoke TNT tire that now come stock on the street model from ewheels. Thank you for this comprehensive review, my friend. Cheers and stay safe out there. Happy shredding!!

well done detailed review

I would say an Euc is more reliable than a car. Fewer things go wrong.

What an awesome review! Great job!

Thanks for detailed review. Do you happen to have a link to the 3D file that covers the front hole, when the toe bits are removed? (Where you used silicone)

How are you liking your tire? And what will be your next tire? Thanks!

Excellent job, Jono. Patton person here and I use it for mostly off-road. Had the Lynx been available at the time, I would have gotten it. Having ridden my Master (non-Pro) off-road before the Patton, I can say that the larger diameter tire traverses obstacles better and gives a smoother ride.

My patton has the same "vibration" at 37mph. I believe it is the FOC or Field weakening taking effect. The controller has to switch from sine wave to square wave. Similar to how dualtron scooters feel grainy compared to other scooters using sine wave. If you try a patton you will feel it from 36-37mmph regardless of tire. ***I could be wrong, it just felt so familar since I have built ebikes using square and sine wave controllers***

Safety margin is a huge plus

Good job Jono. Looks like a mountain of work you did , collecting all that footage and editing.

I'm at 1500km on the Lynx and ran into the same issue as you three weeks ago in rainy conditions with the Kenda... Wiped out sideways in a turn, and I was very surprised, took that turn countless times before with my CST street tire RS, no problem.. Anyway, I'll be moving on to the Shinko before the winter, a friend has it on his Lynx and it is much better. Cheers

Awesome video 🤙🏼 Had a good day when we were on those Mtb tracks I did really love the lynx when I tried yours And I'll probably be putting that tyre on my s22👌🏼 Keep up the good work 👍

best review I have ever seen of any product

Very good review, i still have my SS with just over 7500 miles. love its range and planted stable speeds. i wish its weight was like the patton but i've gotten used to it. I would love to go up steep hills faster but with only a 100v i don't want to overpower it and blow the 30amp breakers. Someone said i could up the breaker to a 50amp but i need to find out just how safe that would be to do. THANKS AGAIN JON 🙂

7:29 Where is the compression adjuster? I can see the large gold preload hex head adjuster, and the screw driver rebound adjuster in the middle, but where is the compression damping adjuster? Also, why do you need more than 20% sag? If the wheel has 90 mm of suspension travel, 20% = 18mm of sag which leaves only 72mm of usable travel. And that's not taking static sag into account, so it's probable even less.

Thank you for priducing this video. I really appreciated how you incorporated video clips from the Citynerd, & not just bikes channel showing alternatives to a car dependent lifestyle. Cars are really disgusting expensive & financially unsustainable. So, bringing these kinds of issues up provides a greater importance to justifying daily PEV usage for transportation, commuting, & daily recreational going places. I hope you bring up these topics as a stance & talking point to the carbrained politicians that are reciving campaign donations from petroleum companies. I am in the US, and unfortunately the ignorance greed, & collective stupidity still flies high, we still use imperial standards, I'll leave it at that. But do bring up these topics more it's important for people in Australia, US, & rest of the world to see this. Also for some reason I thought you were based in NZ. Anyway, Great video, looking forward to more!

Thanks for this great review! Coming from S22 Pro with 3500km., done 1400km. on my Lynx, still can't beat S22 suspension feel and off road steep hill climbing power. And this damn thing can't make turns! Every time I have to turn left or right, must slow down and push hard and careful, very different from S22. Maybe it's me, my weight is only 70kg. so it's a factor and I need more time, we'll see. Anyway, keep up great work and happy riding! 😇

Outstanding video... so much useful information derived from practical experience... thanks for taking the time to make it... your efforts are most definitely appreciated 🥰

Be careful with the toe pad I have a slip-on cover but the whole thing fell off because the hard rubber stock piece came unglued from the plastic

One of the best reviews ive seen in a while

Outstanding work!, thanks a lot for the subjective, objective and technical information from your experience with the wheel, very helpful

Dang awesome production quality Jono!! I've really enjoyed your videos, they're always super informative and well thought out. I thought your tire comparison video was awesome, somehow this video is even better! Keep making this great content - we APPRECIATE you!! I'm a Begode fanboy too, but man the Lynx sure is a great wheel. Your enthusiasm is infectious!

This is a great video , as usual. Am a bit confused on your tyre choice though. You say you prefer the shinko but are using the Michelin? Is there any other competition to the michelin as a pure street/ wet weather tyre? Also I would recommend upgrading from the dual axis leatt to leatt z or c frames. I found a pair of c frames at a great price and recommend, as someone who has injured both knees. When I was changing the pedal hangers to the lowering kit. One of the axel securing screws bolt holes double threaded. Was fixable after being retapped. The original hangers are very soft and something to be careful of.

How you keep your white pads clean?

At 170lbs, i feel the Lynx may still be too heavy for me. If they can update the Sherman S with progressive springs and the magnesium alloy construction from the Lynx to get it down to 75-80 lbs, that'd be amazing.

Jono, my Extreme hasn't arrived yet, and I'm already considering the purchase of a Lynx. My understanding is the Linx uses lightweight alloy which reduced the weight. Do you happen to know which parts are using the lighter metal? Awesome video.

Thx

Good vid but it Tired me out fast.😅 Cheers

Soooo I just started learning and my first wheel is the Lynx. Any tips for first time riders on larger wheels? It's because I'm a 220 pound guy that I went with it. Also picked up the finger horn and charger monitor based on your review. Looks solid.

Am I crazy or something. But ur psi for these tires seem low. I like about 36 psi. I usually stick with 40 only because it's way more flowy feeling when carving and in turns. Is this a bad idea to have it so high or something? My tire is the stock knobby on patton from ewheels. But even when I had my T4, I kept it at 35

Excellent review Jon, thanks for your effort. 6 pac Gord

Now that i think about it, I think im going to switch back to the stock v11 cst 1488 tire. I swapped to the yang h666 and it doesn't wear very well. Im on my third h666. Uneven wear after severl hundred km. The Cst tire is the only tire ive completely wore out. It was nearly a slick. I ran both tires at 40psi. Im heavy. This was a great informative vid.

Michelin Pilot Street not Michelin Pilot Street 2 is the best iv ever tryed .

This is a very informative video that confirms that I'm making the right choice in getting the EB Commander Mini with the 50S cells. I'm learning that I'm a very aggressive rider so the extra cost is justified to me.
