So far so good. I heard issues with the fan, loose screws, loctite grub screw, and possible pinching of wirings so I opened it up. This is my first gotway so I was pretty nervous. Luckily, it's easy to open the wheel to see the internals. Issue I had was the loctite grub screw. I had to use a heat gun to loosen it since I was close to stripping the screw. I did end up replacing all the grubs. I recommend calibrating the wheel before riding or you can experience a very bad pedal dip due to poor factory calibration. This is the first batch by eWheels. The power feels great and it is smooth. The fan sounds like a vacuum and there is a high pitch noise from the motor. The pedals are lower, which some say is detrimental, but for me, it's great. It's stable because it is low. Close to 100 miles in and everything is running good. Hopefully no bad bearings like some other RS have.

Payment was very easy once the EUC arrived in the United States and was ready to ship I promptly received an email to proceed to the payment.

I recently purchased the Gotway RS 19 HS from eWheels and have ridden it for perhaps 2 hours and 30 miles. I've been riding for over a year and my other wheel, the one on which I learned was a Kingsong 16S, also purchased from eWheels. The KS16 has been great, but I was beginning to outgrow it - lots of "Please decelerate!" warnings. That's no longer an issue with the much more powerful Gotway. It's been very easy to get used to and is quite stable. It does not accelerate off the line as well as I had hoped, but the extra top end speed is much appreciated. The power pads, which I received shortly after purchasing the wheel, helped a great deal.

My first Gotway wheel. I cant really make a review on the wheel since i need more time to ride it but so far , this thing just wants to fly on the road. I can tell it is pretty stable , easy to whip around and carve with. Little iffy going up hills with it, and staying stable over bumps , the shell is slippery and not much friction on the included gotway pads . Jason and team answered all questions professionally in a timely matter that i had. Not much information was given about the wheel in regards to setup. Other than that, I like it !
