I've been saying this for a few years already. EUC prices are out of hand. And for all that money they can't come up with a design that lets you change a tire without an hour's worth of disassembly.
Its like that for a reason sure it doesn't take that long to get a wheel off a car but you have to have some common sense the bolts holding our motors in aren't even half the size of a lug on a car if you want that ease of repair then I hate to break it to you but you're fucked in this world it may seem like its easy to make it quicker for tire changes but I'd rather be safe and have to spend two hours changing a tire then having my wheel fly apart at top speed.
@@bryanbryant9962 while there might be a way I like the fact that they tuck everything away so I can ride how I want without worrying about my wheel failing or falling apart.
Wow, my Sherman S took me on a 55 mile ride, going 30mph most of the way, and I was around 30% at the end of it. Granted, I was going up and down many hills (which may or may not be similar to your route), but that is pretty amazing!
the 50S EX30 is $2900 on eucdeals. Shermal L is $4500 on ewheels. The $1600 price difference would certainly make a difference for some potential buyers
Those buyers need to save their money then. . Wisdom isn't for everyone. . If you're broke, you're broke. That's not a reflection on the obvious. . . leaperkim is worlds about other EUC companies. Hints why ALL OTHER companies copy leaperkim. It's easy to have cheap wheels when you do no development. And have second class parts in your products.
Hello Marty, good to see you're still going. As for me neuropathy and degenerative disc disease has left me with a cane instead of a wheel. Keep trucking my man wish I could join you. God do I miss this sport. 👍✌️
@@ElectricUnicycles Thank you Marty I really appreciate it. Please know I had the time of my life riding. One sport I hated to give up! Ride on Marty. 💪💪👍
I feel you them adding shocks on the new wheels I feel buy me a few more years of riding. But with my back I don't know how many good years I got left :( and I love this sport
Not for me. I just dont got it like that plain and simple 5k wheel then 300 for a lowering kit an another 300 for pedals. Its just beyond feasible for me Ill legitimately just get a car, pay off a year of insurance and still be able to buy a brand new euc with that money. I know Im broke but so are alot of others Im just the one typing it.
Hi Marty. You were 55 miles into the ride, and 54% battery. You wondered if there'd be a sudden nonlinear battery drop-off. What were your final numbers just before you ended the ride? Thanks.
I have the Sherman I bout 3year ago run great no problems I ve been riding for a while ,but I still feel like a beginner.. compared to you guys.. but I would like to get the L series, what do ya think
Every tire has its purpose, they want us to think that we have to spend more than $4500. Then how much will it be $6000 $7000? No thanks.. I am happy with my ET MAX...
50s batteries holding quite how voltage and then suddenly drop. Shoud be different curve of battery level indicator. I wonder what milege you can squeeze out of this battery and how it compere to ex30 50s?
If you want to get from point A to point B, there are probably lots of better options. EUC's are about the experience which can't be replicated by a motorcycle.
@@bobdebouwer7835i think as soon as we start seeing euc’s in movies and on television, euc’s may become mainstream immediately. most people that see euc’s tend to say they have never seen one before and are highly interested in learning more about them.
Just open a new credit card with zero interest and finance the wheel. It's a much easier to spend 300 dollars a month than to throw 5k at once. It's what I've done for all my wheels. Plus other toys
@@duperfastEUCme too. I don't got 4 or 5k in the bank or savings. I've taken out a Finance loan for 2 EUCs. Sherman L and an S19. Love then RGB lights and music speakers. Yeah gonna be paying interest. I don't care I just want it now lol 😂
Top dog for now, but Begode's already been implementing higher voltages and weight savings in their latest wheels, so I imagine their next Master Pro (or equivalent) offering will up their game. Will it be better than the Sherman L? Maybe, mabye not, but eventually the Begodes always drop under LK's prices, usually with aggressive sales. Sherman L seems like a great wheel, but that's a steep price, and it's still really heavy. It won't replace lighter weight and cheaper value wheels.
Sounds sweet, but I’m realizing I’m a bit of an anomaly rider that finds 45 to be typical speeds when I’m solo and I like doing jump trails, do you know of another reviewer that rides similar to me?
Its amazing wheel,its seem perfect . I m feel good just now whit my sherman s ,but this l its more safety and spicy . what s the next for leaperkim? Maybe 22?
@@mindjoker4902 They are still overcharging for their wheels and now they are starting to have issues. The Lynx has had quite a few issues and already the Sherman L has had an issue which was documented in a video
The only tear on my eyes is, when I buy this wheel. Its almost 5K for a freaking wheel. Even if you have a disposable income, 5K is still very steep of a price.
So cool to see them pushing the boundaries even further so quickly! I love seeing how fast tech is improving.

I honestly don’t care how much it costs. I’m buying it.
Thanks Marty, because of this short, I put a pre-order in. cheers.
Congrats. You're going to love it

Of course, if you're price sensitive than there are cheaper alternatives. Not as good, but cheaper. This is a premium wheel for sure.

Thanks! Marty you engender so much trust and your passion on the "L" moves me. Now I want one!!!
Wow, thank you so much for the donation. I'm happy that you find some enjoyment for my videos. Means a lot 🙏

I totally get it, believe me. I wish prices haven't skyrocketed like they have
Yep. I really liked it when wheels used to be much more affordable than scooters and other PEVs.
Hi Marty. You were 55 miles into the ride, and 54% battery. You wondered if there'd be a sudden nonlinear battery drop-off. What were your final numbers just before you ended the ride? Thanks.
63-miles at 43% battery, same speeds until I stopped.
@@ElectricUnicycles That EUC ROCKS!!! Thank you.
You seen it here first the L is a W
I have the Sherman I bout 3year ago run great no problems I ve been riding for a while ,but I still feel like a beginner.. compared to you guys.. but I would like to get the L series, what do ya think
I think the L is the best all-around wheel of 2024 for sure. My opinion has only strengthened since this video.
how much does it weigh again?
Something like 104-pounds, give or take.
Every tire has its purpose, they want us to think that we have to spend more than $4500. Then how much will it be $6000 $7000? No thanks.. I am happy with my ET MAX...

Thanks Marty! You keep reinforcing my confidence in my decision to purchase one. 😀
But why is it called L? Sherman-L(ynx) hybrid? 🤔
"Large (battery)" or "Long range" would be my guess.
Curious to see your final results
It sounds like your going to get I say you might get it in 90s😎👍let us know please 🙏
No, pretty sure only the 70's, but at these higher speeds that's fantastic, for me anyway.
Yea with that price, we are in decently used motorcycle territory

Motorcycles have been made 100 years. Euc is still a niche product

You can get an EX-30 for $1500 less. Not everyone has $4500 to spend on a wheel.
I totally agree that it's a lot of money and not for everyone. But some people do have the budget.

Cheaper yes, but they are never ever built as well as a Leaperkim.

Unfortunately, no.
Don't be mistaken guys, the Sherman L is a W!
I got the begode EXN it good on range and battery but I need to go farther faster. It’s time. Storm trooper euc off
Its amazing wheel,its seem perfect .
I m feel good just now whit my sherman s ,but this l its more safety and spicy .
what s the next for leaperkim?
Maybe 22?
Unfortunately Leaperkim doesn't cater to the general public with their prices 🙄
if you want the best you need to pay like what kind of arggument is this >.

Ex30 is almost $1,500 cheaper though
And a Toyota is cheaper than a BMW even though it's a solid car 🙂

@@mbelozerov Touché
@@mbelozerovless is more
stop it ...... sheese
But a (15lb) penalty between the Lynx and the L? (Edited)
12-pounds (I weighed them). The bottom line is the wheel does not feel heavy. Watch Roger kill it on the trails with the L.
@@ElectricUnicycles I agree with weight of a Leaperkim wheel disappearing while riding but mount and dismount feel it, depending on who you are.
@@oldretireddudebut less than 15pounds difference between the L and the Lynx though? or in general, 90 pounds when mounting?
Wheel weight vanishes when it moves 😂. Just like me on lunch breaks😝
If It was only in my budget.
ты че так сдал
What about the safety features?
The only tear on my eyes is, when I buy this wheel. Its almost 5K for a freaking wheel. Even if you have a disposable income, 5K is still very steep of a price.
