King Song 18 Unicycle Review

Get award booking help and personalized travel assistance for as little as $1 a month!

The King Song 18 unicycle is the latest generation of the king song electric unicycle and represents a significant update over the previous AY +200W motor class. With the massive 18” wheel it is undoubtedly the best in managing uneven and poor quality ground especially smooth for long journeys. When the rider’s feet get tired from standing, a padded seat is provided for resting the feet.

Regarding the 18’ large wheels a customer is guaranteed to having certain advantages which include;

A sense of great stability; very many users find it easier to use it for the first time.

Power-the size of the motor wheel will always automatically be proportional to the power it produces therefore by using an 18’ wheel, you’ll immediately take to the predictability and certainty in power.

A superior off-road capability due to the large wheels. Most beneficial on poor roads, dirt trails, and grass.

A padded seat which mounts onto the handle is included in the box. This serves both as side padding for your legs and as a seat as well.

It is less vulnerable to pedal clipping during sharp turns as it has an additional 1.5’ off the ground clearance.

Apart from the above advantages the KS18S’s control board is housed in a separated chamber which is removed from the wheel housing; in addition, the electronic has been coated with a protective film covering the surface to keep out moisture all this are meant to kip it water resistant as it is not recommended to use this wheel in a downpour and as with all electric unicycles it is advisable to store in a dry/indoor environment.

Features

The evolutionary development of the electric unicycles has seen the KS18 S emerge as the latest version and its continued enhancements and updates have been built towards the principle goals of increasing the performance of the proven and durable design.

Ergonomics/Comfort- its design has seen to it that this wheel is substantially taller than other electric unicycles. At 28’, there is a small readjustment period for adapting to the unique design. It is worth noting that with other electric unicycles, maneuvering is controlled through the calving and shin areas however on the KS18S there is a great contact surface area with the legs extending up to the knees a feature which makes it comfortable to use on long journeys.

Performance

The complete combination of the state of the art high-performance hardware and firmware creates a ride experience that is quite unrivaled with other electric unicycles. The response lag in the pedals has been greatly minimized meaning that a slight lean forward triggers the wheel’s control system to instantly react.

Ruggedness and durability

Over the past two years since the KS 18S line has been in production, the body has proven to be practically indestructible and is one of the most durable wheels being produced in present day. Although the Gateway monster has been the wheel that has been rivaling the King Song 18 for its size, there still exist several distinct advantages the KS 18 has over the great rival and this could be the construction body shell with significant superiority to that of monster. When the monster is dropped, the screw-holds have a tendency of shearing off.

Some other common features that are also available are; 4x Bluetooth speakers, light-sensitive head/tail lighting, pedal pitch angle,USB charging port and a Bluetooth App among other technological aspects.

The King Song 18 unicycle is only available on eWheels.
