I have a little over a week now with the new Begode Extreme and I'm loving it. Jason and Nick were as usual very helpful in leading me to decide to get the Extreme. My year old KS 16X has almost 3K miles in it and I love it. I got the hybrid tire because my use case is more of touring around parks, neighboring communities, and light mountain bike trails. I just need an EUC with nice suspension that can do light trails and more of street. It should also be nimble enough for parks and crowded paved trails. The 16 inch wheel is perfect for my needs. The DS200 shock with 900lbs spring is excellent for a 165 lb rider. I am now able to go to places where the KS 16X has difficulties and am more relax due to a little bit bigger diameter tire, shock, and the gyro effect. Riding seated is excellent, the transition from standing to sitting is a lot easier due to the handle, height, and gyro. I like the weight for long distance, it feels like riding on a motorcycle in terms of stability and comfort. I highly recommend the wheel and of course eWheels!
