Your reviews and comparisons of the Lynx, ET Max, and GT Pro have helped me so much. I bent my Patton rim going way too fast down a hill in the dark in unfamiliar territory into a curb. I went flying, landed on my feet in a full sprint, not a scratch on me... but my Patton took all the damage. I'm not sure if I just bent the rim or did damage to the motor between the rim as well. I'm at almost exactly 1500 miles on it. I was committed to a Lynx once I burnt out or broke the Patton. At this point, I'm still a bit undecided but I'm pretty sure I'm going with the ET Max or GT Pro this week. Love your channel, hope you get more subscribers.
There’s a lot of good, EUC content out there but with this video, this is now my favorite EUC, RUclips channel! I’ve been waiting for this video! Great stuff and I’m only 10 seconds into the vid 😂
Love the efficient, no-nonsense, and information packed reviews you do. I thought this ET Max was going to be a hit and the GT Pro was going to be a miss, but this totally changed my mind.
Thank you for watching! My goal is to hit 4000 subscribers by the end of 2024! It's a lofty goal but I think it can be done. if you haven't already, would you mind helping me reach that goal by hitting this link to subscribe to the channel?

All these heavy wheels are not as fun as the lighter and more maneuverable wheels. With the faster charging Samsung S batteries all I need is something quick and light . It's just my opinion.
I honestly disagree to an extent; I had a Patton and now I have an ET Max. I feel just as much acceleration on the ET if not more due to better acceleration at high speeds. It feels much safer to jump down stairs and curbs due to the gyro stability. At low speeds, lighter and smaller wheels are fantastic but at high speeds, I need the stability that the ET provides to feel secure and enjoy my ride
For me personally the look of the wheel matters a lot. For this reason, I would never buy Gt Pro. This is kind of like having to pick nice sport car versus ugly one, would better suspension add any value if the car looks like crap? Definitely no.
I can’t justify how it looks until they put more batteries in that biotch lol…the ET Max is just so sexy…when I first got it I found myself just staring at it in my living room lol…
Trying to decide between the GT Pro and Pro+ the last few days. Just sold my cpro50s and really miss it. Watching this was enough to nudge me to get the Pro+. So thanks!
@@WheelGoodTime just curious how Off Road Mode performs on the GT Pro? Should be a hell of a punch. I imagine you didn't try it, saying you prefer super soft swinging pedals and all..
As an owner of a commander Pro 50S, I think the Commander GT Pro+ is gonna be a killer wheel. The GT Pro + should have a few more “bells and whistles” of esthetics along with power for me to pull the trigger. The suspension and handling should be the same as the 50S.
imo suspension: et max> gt pro speed: et max < gt pro Ride feeling: et max < gt pro power delivery: et max < gt pro stability: et max < gt pro Nimbleness: et max > gt pro charging comfort/speed: et max > gt pro Internal Build quality: et max > gt pro Firmware: et max < gt pro
@@aeyronmoore4460 that entirely depends on your desires and plans. If you want the absolute fastest accelerating EUC out there, the ET Max is where it's at. The GT Pro has superior ride quality though. Personally, if given the choice, I'd go with the GT Pro because of the ride quality. But I personally plan to get the Sherman L. The reason for that is because of the incredible ride quality - I don't personally ever need to go 60 mph (gps speed) so the extra voltage (168v) isn't an absolute necessity for me. These wheels are both great but neither one fits all my needs perfectly. But that's just my opinion 😃 Have you also looked into the upcoming Commander L/Bison and the Sherman L? It will be lighter weight than the ET Max AND the GT Pro, and also have 33% more battery capacity.
From the outside it looks the same, but if you crack open the motor, the magnets are shaped in a way that increases efficiency. By doing so, you're able to extract more torque with that than you would out of an identically specced non-tile type motor
@@Lowlandeuc sadly I don't have it in my possession anymore. But I am sure someone will take a photo or make a video showing it at some point in the near future 🙂
I believe my fastest 0-40 (gps corrected) time was 5 seconds. Personally, even though the ET Max was the fastest accelerating, I still prefer the ride quality on the lynx over both of these 🙂
@@97miguee I believe for my demo unit, it was about 13%, and the Lynx is roughly 6%. 🙂 I wouldn't put it past Begode to change that with a firmware update though 😂
@@eucberserker9049 I don't know how much they will cost. I received a lemon as a coil. I asked if I could replace it with an air suspension, and coincidentally, they had one made for the ET MAX.
As always, you produce great content. My immersion into EUCs is only 5 months long, and I have a V5F, V14, and Extreme; loving it. I'm needing a video that introduces me to the EUC competition world. I don't know the difference between Apple Valley Speedway and Amped Electric Games. I don't know what or if there's a "technical" competition and what that means. I hear, "this wheel has won more podiums than any other" but I can't find many videos or website data to see that for myself. The few races I've seen often don't list what the winner was riding. I need a Sherpa Spirit Guide to explain that part of the EUC community to me. Help!😊
I would love to do a video talking about the different races. Unfortunately, that might require quite a bit of travel on my part 🤣 but I will try to think of a way to create a compelling video about that. But here's what I do know: AVS is a large track that is generally used for car races, so for EUCs, it's an opportunity for racers to hit huge speeds. Other races take place on smaller tracks generally used by go karts, and that seems to be much more common. Much tighter turns and hard accelerations all over the place. That seems to be very common in European EUC races. The EUC racing scene in Europe also seems to be much bigger than in the USA. I haven't been to Amped (yet), but I have heard it's basically a giant circle/rectangle shape, but I don't have much more detail about that. There isn't an official league for racing, but that would be pretty cool to see someday 🙂
@WheelGoodTime Your response is very helpful. It solidified my belief that our EUC world is still on the front end of maturity (the wild west) and I hope that doesn't change for many years. I like being in unregulated and ignored by the powers that be. The content I'm seeking will likely be hit and miss for a while. Again, thank you.
@@WheelGoodTime Thanks, btw you mentioned a $400 price difference between the wheels, but I can find the et max for $3600 everywhere, and the GT Pro for $3700 on NGM, so only $100
I don't have enough experience to speak on the Commander Pro unfortunately 😔 where I'm currently moving to, I'll have access to all the newest wheels so I can hopefully have a better answer to that question in a month or two. Sorry I can't be of more help 😞
@@Corn8Bit no, the GT Pro (40T version) has the same rim as the EX30. The ET Max has a different rim with a different motor. I talk about the rim on the GT pro more in depth on the review video I posted last week 🙂
I was looking for this exact review! I've had an inmotion v12 for so long waiting for a much better wheel to upgrade to. I almost bought a sherman s but held off because it wasn't universally loved, and I definitely want the lynx, but that range just isnt enough. I'm hoping the pro + is the answer!
@@ricklulu3572I had a V11Y for 4k miles then got a Lynx, it took 2k miles but I feel like 90% as maneuverable as the V11Y at slow speeds and feel perfectly stable in a straight line at 55 mph gps speed
Because the BMS is physically attached to each battery. If they were to add a smart BMS, they'd have to replace all the battery packs - a very expensive project.

Thanks 😀 I was surprised too! The GT Pro is admittedly ugly, but I actually like riding it a lot!
@@WheelGoodTime It is very ugly... a wheel you want to ride with the lights off

Where's the Torx (or E-Torx) head screws?
Very good video,How many seconds does the Lynx at 40mph?

They are very similar but the compression/rebound dials on top of the GT pro indicate they are slightly different.
