+ Acceleration & braking: It's Michael Jackson leaning all the way.
+ Camera placement: You put the cameras everywhere to give the best angle, what a hassle to did it
+ Music: You had the time to adjust the volume up & down when you speak.
+++ Final thoughs on your review: OUTSTANDING!!
Hendrik Ronald what a nice review about a review
Thank you!!!
He's a unicycle master, they become one
Indeed he is.
we are lucky to have such an amazing reviewer
i don't know why CZcams recommended this to me, but i'm not even mad.
Why would you give CZcams that kind of power over your state of mind anyway?
That’s great cause me too
Im a middle aged man who has never rode a wheel, but man this guy has sold it to me! Im gonna pre-order ASAP and learn how to ride. Thank you Kuji. Great review!
Try your best.
I’m a middle aged guy that learned how to ride them and they are fantastic. I don’t ride aggressively but it’s a blast to take it out with my German Shepherd. Learn how to scrub the wheel side to side when you are first learning to balance. That really helped me a lot
Ribeye Robert D dude I’m in Cali too, I’m tied between the V11 and the S18! I’m leaning more towards the INMOTION. Would you recommend EUCO? I was wanting to buy one off myinmotion.com .
What made you finalize your choice ? Thanks
I’m with you Bro. 51 and want one.
Did you get it yet???
Awesome. This will be the breakthrough product that moves EUC’s from being perceived as a niche eccentric hobbyist interest to a genuine more broadly viewed legitimate and in time prominent part of urban planning responses to congestion and the last mile issue with public transport. For two reasons - it solves most urban obstacle issues and more importantly the aesthetics of it are so good that the nerd problem will go. If Kingsong could get this placed in an action movie sales would go nuts.
Good idea!!!
Agree, not just good for last mile traffic congestion but also getting the person engage in activity that is fun!!!!
It could work to promote the movie. First EUC action stunt scene.
@@Kekafuch honestly I'm not a huge fan of them in terms of practicality because of ebikes and escooters taking that role but it would be SICK to see an action getaway of someone dropping this down and heading down an alleyway.
Well the origin,the ninebot Segway S ,which I have hasn’t really caught on so...
This guy just sold you a helmet a one wheel and some asics. Bang.
He didn't sell me a flyswat. I AM THE FLYSWAT!!!
Hahaha
What is the helmet?!
Kuji just sold thousand's of Kingsong S18's. Great video bro!
Definitely!!!!!!!! I only seem one vid but he better restructure his contract CUZ HES THE FACE ON THIS SHIT💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾
@@kevinkev1530 lol
If the review wasn't enough, hosing it off in the shower was. Some of us live where it's wet, having a wheel that's okay with that AND offers adjustable, rebuildable or replaceable shocks? Yes please.
Haha right, now I want to upgrade from my 16x
Kuji,you are the best man. Your reviews besides being very informative and non biased (I believe), are also super well made. The music, the angles, the places you go to.. This is art!
I appreciate that!
As a CZcamsr myself, I really admire your videography and editing! Very entertaining and informative review.
SO STOKED! Thanks for getting us all excited!!
Just got ours and we absolutely can't wait to test it to the limits!
I could NOT imagine an unicycle could have been reviewed so well and so detailed.
Duuuuude, your review is the best!! you showcased all the information in a very entertaining way. Not to mention the play around background music. Good work man.
Can't wait for the V11 vs S18 side by side comparison video!
The wait is killing us all.
Range ???
@@jithinshankar5348 i guess it will be about weight, portability, range and motor feel (torque) .
Suspension wise, S18 has my vote. V11 is just an air shock absorber.
Since he’s reviewed both and the title of this video says “the best yet,”’ I’m *guessing* he prefers the S18 over the V11?
This is the review I and many others have been waiting for. I am so glad you put the S18 through it's paces including dirt & WATER! Hopefully that will silence those looking to poop on the S18 open design. Now will come the hardest part. Waiting for my S18 to arrive! Thank you for sharing this review!
Why would people wanna poop on the S18? This honestly seems like the best EUC in the market right now in almost all aspects, so it seems surprising that people wouldn't particularly like it.
BEST TEST/REVIEW I've seen of S18 so far! Thanks Kuji! I'm really SHOCKED how you charged it while it was still wet....LOL!
yeah, i wouldnt recommend charging after that.
This wheel eats SHOCKS for breakfast
Darn, in my mind i ride as good as you but in reality im 74 and have alittle less flow.:-)
Me after seeing this channel:
I need one wheel.
Yeah don’t get the onewheel. They suck compared to EUC. The nose of the board scrapes on everything
@@barrett5229 Dumb comment. I have both, and they serve two very different functions. If I want to commute, or just go really fast, then I grab the euc. If I want to "float" I grab the Onewheel. One isn't better than the other.
@@maynarddrivesfast804 yeah enjoy that onewheel then. I had both too. Then it cut off mid ride and nearly killed my brother because of the side stance and the nose plowing straight into the ground. Do some research. It’s happened to many riders. The onewheel is a POS
@@barrett5229 the board doesn't just "cut off". You get fair warning with pushback before it nosedives. Your brother clearly ignored the boards pushback and tried to push it past its limits. Do research? I've owned the damn thing for over a year and have put almost 500 miles on it. That's all the "research" I need to do. Don't ask more of the board than it can give you, and you won't eat shit. Gotta know your equipment.
One wheels are great too. Almost 2000 miles and zero nose dives. To be honest your doing something dumb if you’re nose diving. Also my top speed on it is 23.2 MPH so I’m not going slow.
You're music choices and video editing are top notch 👍👍
Thank you for this review Kuji!
Thank you for innovating King Song International
Kingsong congratulations!
If there's any way you can make a wheel like this with double the range, I'm a buyer :)
Congratulations, KingSong. Another quality product!!!
S18 showed his true strength.You have to be a sponsor Kuji
Really good innovation
I hope à xl :0)
For final version more lighting rear.
Maaaan this is an awesome video. Props!
Your riding is getting very impressive now Kuji! 👀🥇
You are really demonstrating how incredibly agile an EUC can be, and it's not just the new suspension.
Watching this vid is the first time I've been seriously tempted about changing to EUCs instead of my beloved Onewheel... 😮👍
do it. do it. do it.
Do it, you won't be disappointed!
The only things I miss from riding onewheel are steadiness over soft surfaces (mud/sand), and being able to carve up banked turns without fear of cutout from angling the wheel to much. Oh, and looking cool instead of silly. :) But yeah the EUC gets way more use than my onewheel and has halved my commuting time.
Thanks for the replies. I do expect to "go EUC" at some time in the future because of the huge range and big stable top speeds etc. 👍
But... I'm over 50 now and really want to get a few years riding Onewheel (while my bones are still strong) with its cool surfing stance and more of a "low speed tricks" etc riding style, and a fair amount of falling and jumping off. 🙈
I don't have any big fast 30 mile rides I need to do, but I can sure ride the heck out of a 12 to 15 mile blast on my Onewheel.
And even 5 mph speed on the Onewheel can be magic if it's a tricky enough terrain... 🥰
@@AdamHillikerLikesRobots hmm... To be honest... I dont think it looks silly. I mean yea, ob cheaper wheels it can look silly, but on all the new ones... Just pure awesomeness, nothing else
Just when you thought the euc could go everywhere now it litrally can !!! Unreal how incredible are these things. To be able so pop up even the smallest curb is such a game changer. Awesome entertainng review as always. Thanks mate.
I have watched three of your wheel reviews so far, and not because I plan to get one, but it looks like so much fun!
I think with a spinal diagnosis of Scoliosis, I would end up killing myself on it. I'll just enjoy watching the more agile wheel around our city, once they become more commonplace.
Oh...your editing and music selections are superb! Kudos!
Here is a list of changes and improvements on the production model King Song S18:
Adjustable Pedal -Structural: The pedals are adjustable allowing riders to lower the platform by 2cm. This allows riders of different heights to have better control and increased comfort levels on the S18.
Mudguard- Back fender: Previous mudguard was secured by glue and one screw. The final production is secured by a total of 3, one on each shell and one in between with the addition of glue.
Tiring rubbing noise: Some prototypes experienced a rubbing noise issue. The tire we used on prototype is a little bit wider than massive production, and the mainboard holder tubes had some errors, so the tire might be pushed to one side and scratched the body shell. We’ve adjusted the moldings/dimensions to eliminate these issues.
Wobbliness: Users experienced issues where the wheel would wobble when braking. After testing we eliminated the issue being suspension related but was rather padding related. Users could not grip the wheel when braking hard, we have since increased the PU pad thickness from 4mm to 12mm.
Top of wheel hurting inner knee: The padding was not thick enough causing the knee to interact with the harder elements of the wheel. Final production will have increased the PU pad thickness from 4mm to 12mm.
Body shell: Some users experienced the case not being durable enough when crashing. We started using a material with more flexibility causing it to be less brittle. ABS+PC.
Outer shells popping off: Users experienced the white body panels coming off when crashing, we have increased the thickness of the clips so they don’t come off as easily.
Handle: Sometimes the trigger button gets stuck, we’ve added a crystal silicon logo above the button to create a uniform force downwards.
Steel Slide: To increase the durability of our suspension we have changed the sliders from aluminum to steel. The steel is treated to protect it against elements.
Suspension support frame: Suspension support frame is changed from space grey to gold.
Padding durability: We have changed the material for the padding so it doesn’t rub off as easily.
Thanks for this! You’re simply the best in the game when it comes to EUC reviews.
I have 0 interest in riding a unicycle but I love watching your videos. Keep it up dude!
I was dead set on the V11, but you sure make a tough bargain and life much harder!!! Now I'm really considering the S18 since in São Paulo it's going to be mainly urban use.
Thanks!
Man, get inmotion, the assembly and material quality is not to compare to kingsong. If you want to ride more than one season of course
Nah, the Ks18 suspension is superior to the Inmotion, plus it's more manoeverable and the mileage/charge time is also pretty good.... if you've got stairs to carry it up the s18 is lighter too.
@ Rodrigo Silveira In São Paulo the best place is eMove, the official Inmotion dealer for Brazil, not only because of technical support and warranty, but the owner, Gustavo, is a promoter of evs and a rider. By the way, they are offering some good payment plans. Check it out
urban, then range is your friend , V11 for sure
I am kinda in the same boat, leaning more towards v11 tho. What did u ended up getting?
First ever EUC shower scene - Hitchcock would be proud.
End-User Computing?
Excellent Used Condition?
Extended Unix Code?
Emergency Unemployment Compensation?
Extreme Unicycling Championship?
Exotic underpants convention?
@@derekhunter5040 Electric Uni Cycle?
Y???
I can’t believe this video is 3 years old, helped influence me to get an S18 which had several thousand trouble free miles now, range is plenty good for me, I do wish the tires lasted longer, a great machine
Thanks for the recommendation!!
You are one of the very best reviewers of anything. Like most of your videos this was informative, affable, entertaining, with ideal pacing and overall duration. I have no interest in onewheels, but I watch and enjoy everything you post.
Next-level review status achieved!
Call that to Jesus Christ to be granted access to the next supernatural level that only he can give you
Supernaturally powered by Jesus Christ is the way of victory
This is the most aesthetically beautiful wheel I have seen so far. I'm really excited to see what's available when I'm ready to invest in a new one. Thanks for your entertaining and thorough reviews :)
I could watch you jump up over stairs all day long. Looks like some kind of magic.
Just wanted to say that you did a fantastic job with the editing in this video, lining up the music with the images very well in certain parts (like going through the green puddles). Thanks for another great video!
No scabs on his knees! Its gotta be good. I'm sold.
BROTHER: HERE IN HAWAII, WE THINK YOU ARE VERY INFORMATIVE AND VERY FUNNY!!!!! :-) STAY SAFE BROTHER!!!!
So exciting for those reactions ...
Plz do more 😁
Best EUC channel by far. Your riding skills are outstanding mate. SO tempted to put a pre-order down for one. Might do the all black one. Sexy lil'wheel!
I look and i see you truly enjoying it, waiting for your comparison video
I love this. Unfortunately I am too old to learn to ride it and will break a few bones and need to lose a few kilos. However it looks like the best and most fun thing a young man could ever own. I am so impressed. So.. I wont get one.. for myself... However I can relive my youth through my youngest son who is 14 and will love it. Just found his Christmas present.
easeinbox How old, if you don't mind me asking? I taught my 61 year old dad how to ride.
These have auto balance. Very easy to learn.
Dude come back! I don’t even ride a wheel but I absolutely love your videos, you are a born film maker!
Probably the best video for a product i have ever seen. Nice job!
the most impressive thing about this video was that I learned you are a Japanese American... living in China!
Maybe its cheaper to invest and produce in China than America
yeah I found this odd aswell.
@@WingsOfADream1 Why?
Let's hope he never accidentally says something bad about China or he might have an accident or suddenly disappear.
@Bugatti Boss you can google what happens to dissenters in China. It's literally called the Communist Chinese Party. What do you think Communism is?
Denying reality doesn't make you kind and accepting of other cultures.
I randomly clicked on this and this thing looks amazing! The styling is perfect! And that suspension! Man! The lights look great as well! I may seriously consider this in the future, but can't dish out $1800 for it at this time. Maybe if I find one to test drive, it'll light a flame under my ass to find a way to buy my own.
When you're watching this on a Friday Night, you know it gotta be great! Excellent wheel and riding. Even the choice of music is superb. Envy... I want one!!!
Thanks for braving the Sanya heat for us, Kuji. We appreciate it! Looking forward to the next two videos
I've been looking at buying an e-Bike for a month or so, but this just threw a wrench in that! This looks so cool and fun!!! Now idk what to do!
I feel that so much, I already have an e-bike and now I'm like...but this looks soo fun and convenient for short trips- why not have both?!
An ebike is soooo much safer at higher speeds, much more offroad capable and with pedaling you can influence the range to your need. A bike can also have a rack or a trailer to transport stuff.
...things to ponder.
@@WeMakeLaw Not so much bro, even if you use pedals, the batteries on ebikes are much more limited than current EUCs, and Ebikes with equivalent battery capacity is soooo much more expensive than EUCs. I've been looking for some ebikes with equivalent battery and speed setups but believe me...not worth the prices and convenience (too heavy to carry and manuever). Besides, riding EUC is a totally different experience and it is much funnier than ebike, and It is not as unsafe as it seems. You will understand it once you open your mind and try It.
This might win me over. I thought a EUC would look more ridiculous over a OW, but now I'm more interested in this thing: suspension, range, looks, practicality.
Yeah it's tough deciding. The best bet is to get both. Very different experiences
THANKS KUJI, I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS. I STARTED WATCHING THEM IN JULY, 2020. BECAUSE OF YOUR EXPERT KNOWLEDGE, AND PRECISE SPEAKING MANNER, YOU SOLD ME ON THE VETERAN SHERMAN. I HAVE ORDERED IT AND CANNOT WAIT UNTIL I GET IT. THANKS AGAIN.
I was recommended by CZcams for this video. Watched it for the electric unicycle stay because of skill of riding it. Impressive!
4:10 Not Chinese, but a delightful mashup of two nationalities currently regarded with deep suspicion in China. ;^)
PS I'm totally sold on the S18 and thrilled that CZcams chucked your video into my feed.
3:17 damn that's some impressive skills!
I could watch you all day! The beautiful Chinese landscape, the music, watching you shread, fall, get kicked out. It's all pure entertainment
love your videos. great quality. great music. great action. THANK YOU!
Best EUC review ever! Kuji, would be nice if you actually test full range with different riding styles and speed and max speed on low % charge. Will definitely buy S18, next to my 16x that's already falling apart after 5800km.
too painful to ride slowly though
"I've not been kicked outta here yet... Surprising." Indeed ;-D
watched 2 reviews and then subbed, love the way you point out the features and the way you edit the videos! Thanks for all the great info! Really considering buying one for myself, seems very good for city travelling
It's the best for the city! Agility, portability, and speed.
Your reviews are so awesome. I live in Toronto Canada. Roads are super super bumpy. I’ve been holding off on buying a Uni wheel because I thought they would not hold up bumpy roads, but I think I’ll get this one. Thanks so much, was fun to watch. Dang those tricks look hard but you make it look easy.
I'm sold. Another good review.
Great review, looking forward to the comparison!
Ah man... your reviews are amazing. You are natural. Congrats!
Glad you like them!
Thank you for your honest opinion, it's super important for the whole EUC world.
8:02 - you know he loves the wheel when he checks the water temp by hand before showering the thing/baby 😂🤣
I was like "oh cool he's gonna ride that down the stairs, he's probably going to fall" and then he fricking rides up the stairs like a boss
Another amazing review that makes me want to ditch my all-wheel drive suv! It's been a long time since I've been so entertained with a video, not alone a review of a product! Keep up the amazing work, and I'm sure you will continue to explode in subscriptions!
Bro. This video was incredible! That’s the coolest thing I’ve ever seen - a wheel with a Fox 3-position shock! I can see this blowing up here in the state soon.
"It's like a shittier heavier pogo stick" made me laugh out loud
I recommend $8 Harbor Freight 12V high-pressure compressor for my air shocks. Had to buy a car battery charger but that's a good thing to have anyway. It's a cheap POS system that works great!
Kuji! With your videography, editing, music selection (with lovely timing on the visuals), skills, bravery (stupidity? ;-), focused reviews and all out quality output, I'm pretty sure you're the best wheel reviewer on planet earth right now (no offence at all to Speedy Feet and Adam from Wrong Way - I'm pretty sure they'll generally agree). Thanks for the ultimate Top Gear of EUC reviews. You're currently 1 in 7 billion.
Speedy and Adam are hot on your heels though ;-)
Besides your excellent reviews, your videos have the coolest music!
At least 20 years from now, people gonna wonder at 3:03 what he means by "because of the virus".
I was thinking if getting a onewheel XR to go along with my pint but.. this seems to be the way to go, around the same price as well
Fantastic review! Loved my first ride yesterday 😎
Man, I just find Kuji's videos so relaxing😀😀😀
First time watching your channel first time watching a product like this. I don't know who edits ur vids but it's crisp af. Subbed bro
Thanks man. It's a one man operation at the moment.
I can see random 🍕 pizza delivery guys zooming around on these things in cities all around the world.
I want one to travel locally around my home. Can cut a 20 min trip down a few mins.
Kuji: I watched it twice. Then I sent it to a bunch of people. Awesome video!
Very informative & enjoyable review Kuji, Thank you 🙏
Great video. It takes you no time to throw these wheels around. Crazy
Kuji, I am waiving the white flag! Even though, I wish the elephant in the room was addressed, SPEED. The abilities of this wheel are undeniable. I guess my budget goals will be a total fail in 2020, because of this wheel. I am hoping your review of the Veteran Sherman will not be so glowing, so I will not further financial ruin. Many Thanks
Speed and torque for the extreme enthusiast will be lacking. But the veteran is nuts... That's more my type, but the suspension has its novelty.
Recieved mine today! But i‘m a beginner. Will start to train tomorrow. But till now, it looks and feels very worthy.
everytime i watch a kuji rolls video, I wanna move to China. All those gorgeous places and no winter!
AWESOME Review as always Kuji. only thing missing is hill climbing.
This ain't no long distance hill climbing wheel. This is more for short instant gratification
@@KujiRolls Okay thx for the info Kuji. I was more thinking about the torque we would get with this wheel climbing up hills. Let's say for example, someone living in San Francisco, would this wheel still be a good viable option for them?. I love your reviews of both S18 and V11 but in both reviews you did not test the hill climbing ability. why not?, no hills in that city?. Please don't take this the wrong way Kuji. Your reviews are truly fantastic and very fun to watch but testing hill climbing is important and something you can maybe improve on in your future reviews. Thanks and keep up the great work :)
@@VizioN-Scope yeah hills are located outside of the city and i only end up that far out if im doing a group ride. The only hills i have in the city are that little park that i do offroading in
@@VizioN-Scope Check the Speedyfeet review...
@@davidcampbell8667 okay thx :)
As expert a rider as he obviously is, his wearing of the full face helmet tells me something, a little dose of reality.
yet no kneepads, and just gloves as the only other protection - not even long pants
@@manofsan lol you are saying that it is safe
What are you talking? The helmet is what you call sponsorship 😅
@@petergoestohollywood382 He's riding a fast wheel on some very rough roads. Have you seen what a faceplant from these things looks like? These are cute toys for gadgets buffs, but I'd never ride one routinely - certainly not at high speed.
@@petergoestohollywood382 what brand is the helmet?
Thank you really much for your review @kujirolls
I love it...
I hope we can see you to the electrics games...
Have a good day
i hope so too! Really looking forward to racing against you Frenchies again this year. I wont let you guys win this time.
They took the front of a motorcycle chopped it and than motorized it, that’s amazing lol
imagine cops will have these then there is no escape from them haha
Paul Blart. A mall cop of the future.
Nice very nice my friend! They obliviusly picked the right guy to do this review with.
I really didnt know this was already out there but now you have showed me and now i want one!
You are amazing on that wheel young man! Thanks for your demo.
Beautiful video.
Which helmet is that Kuji and where can i buy it?
Answer: Fox Helmet 👍
Any luck finding one? They’re all sold out or don’t have a size large.
After watching a lot of your videos, I ended up buying this baby today. Should get here soon. Thanks, Kuji-san!
Thank you for this video. I am thinking of buying my first weel and I feel this is a great one to start my journey. It really looks like its something from the future but I am sure that's also because of how experienced you are with it
If plain on "commuting" with it ,better to get V11.
But if 80% casual riding your good with S18
@@Kay0Bot It's for casual use but ill prob use it for commuting eventually. Why is V11 better on that aspect? Is it the range? Because I watched another review and the range looked very decent for the battery size.
@@mehmetkaran998 yes range/battery capacity is your most important detail for commuting. As rule thumb I cut the advertise range in half for non "ideal" conditions aka the real world.
V11 , (inmotion in general) , also design for safe riding and commuting in a city environment and user convenience.
"It shuts off before it hits the pedals, that's amazing!" Sounds like a safety issue. Lol No more pedal scraping without face and body scraping. Lol
This for real... they need to get rid of the 45º cutout bullshit already.
@@robaba89 no they dont we dont need another gotway dace.
1:26 - Aaaaaa! WHO ARE YOU??! Where is Kuji?!?!
Glorious footage.
Great video!! Great music!!! You're an absolute MASTER of that wheel, brother!!!
Unlike the other hooligans, I watched the video
Is it safe to say that this is your most favourite wheel at the moment, Kuji?
The Veteran has caught my eye...
Kuji Rolls Gotta go fast
first time watching your VIDs and theyway you record it is fantastic. I love it.
I wish you showed a bit more details about the unit, closeups etc.
I have other s18 videos with better closeups.
Your videos are entertaining, informative, hilarious and more. You push the limits. God bless! Man i need to get one!
I wanna see the Sherman.
Sure, man. But I'll need a couple weeks to make the vid
@@KujiRolls I see what you did there
