“I have the 14 s the 16s and the 18 XL and I never ride the 18 because it's so big and heavy and less responsive the 14s is my favorite it's the one I ride the most I've got 650 miles on it within 7 months. I like it most because it's so responsive and lightweight I ride it to work everyday and put it in a basket in front of the passenger seat in my truck”
Happy to hear that you're satisfied with all of your wheels. Each machine and brand will perform differently, it looks like you prefer the smaller wheels with better torque feel. Glad that we were able to help with your trolley handle issues. Make sure to gear up, and ride safe!
“What a great little wheel- perfect for traveling with or just toying around town.
Any smaller and I feel like the wheel becomes a novelty or loses light/sound etc.
Already it is tougher for long legs because it is short & 14 inch tires still feels safe.
3 months on this wheel so far.
Only gripe is the 18/MPH limit which is a nice safety feature- but would be better if you could ride it without the beep and they just save the tilt back for over power/lean.”
“I'm still learning on it. I started with the KS16X which for me, was too hard to learn on. I have limited time and energy to practice and needed a smaller unit to learn on. The 14S will also be more welcome on the city trails and paths where I live if anyone's paying attention. I'll gladly be keeping it. Who wouldn't want 2 anyway?
The pedals are lower and the power less than the 16X and those things are helping me progress faster. I can also ride it in the house with a few easy furniture moves - just for the learning phase. I chose the S over the D version for the extended battery life.
I do like the features you've already read about. Mostly I like that it's easier and lighter than the 16X but still full of pep. I'm likely to use this wheel more than the other for the next few months or longer.
I got the quick charger and protective cover too. Glad I did. The charger gives you the ability to charge at 80 or 90% as well as 100. It's recommended to charge mostly at those lower options.
Two King Songs. After much reading and video watching, I developed a thing for King Song. Safety, the strong handle, large pedals, LEDs and headlights (alternating front to back headlight on this unit), seat option for the future, and all-around flexibility of the two units I've chosen. I'll ride both on and off-road. Thanks for reading.”
“I've had the 14s and the 16s for one full year now and I love them they're just coolest can be I've gotten caught in rain storms a few times never a problem. They are plenty fast for me I also have the 18 XL. But I don't care for it I only weigh 160 lb but my son weighs 250 lb and he prefers the 18 XL”
“They say if you can learn on a smaller wheel, it's easier to ride one of the big boys. I didnt want to spend $2-4000 if I couldn't or didnt like to ride EUC. I'm sure the XL footpads help with mounting.
I opted for the bigger battery so I don't lose speed as voltage drops so fast. It's great fun in a very compact package and probably the best wheel for last mile commuting due to its 30 lb. weight. When you get to your destination, park it on its side & let the music jam on the decent built-in speakers. I love hopping on the 14S on my day off to unwind & head to the park. It's great fun on the paved trails & has some off-road capability, provided the ground isnt loose substrate or rutted from cars.
At a minimal, you want wrist guards for this wheel. Thankfully, eWheels knew this and included a pair. (I recommend asking sizing from customers.) If you're riding in the road or off-road, throw some knee pads & a helmet on. I love this wheel. It is a little mule. Motor is torque-y enough for some start/stop grooving and hard acceleration. It can handle around 30° inclines, provided the traction is there. The King Song 14 series is definitely a well rounded beginner/commuter wheel that is guaranteed to have people staring and smiling!”
“It is really small, easy to pick up although I wouldn't want to cary it far because you can use the trolly handle, and goes a reasonable speed so you wont die if you fall off. Me and a few friends learned on this, it took a beating and came out fine. Big bumps in the dirt are a little scary and curbs on the pavement still give me a hard time, but I've only had it 3 days. If I could start over I would have gotten a bigger wheel, I wasn't sure I would like it, but it's awesome.”
“I don't like the app that has to be downloaded. That was about step 2 or this process and had to be done so I felt like I was being strongarmed. I couldn't turn on my wheel without giving King Song access to my photos, email, etc.”
“Wonderful first electric unicycle. After a hour of practice, I can ride this thing pretty well and started getting comfortable. After 3 days I started to master it. It is extremely durable. I am the 3rd owner of my KS-14s and it works like a charm and i ride it really hard. I would highly recommend as a first electric unicycle.”
