First Ride on the Leaperkim Lynx! Comparing to the Inmotion V14 from Cairns to Northern Beaches

[@grb1969]

Took my first ride on my first suspension wheel last night; Sherman-S. At 55years old, my knees are happier than ever. 😊

@@grb1969 that’s a nice wheel to cruse on I have heard

I've gone down several times on my V14, nothing dramatic, thank goodness. I love it. I'm curious about other wheels. Yeah keep shifting your feet around. I like the % on V14. Slowing down and speeding up is part of the fun.

[@AntiOrderAustralia]

@@CapitalWheeler totally!! I can’t wait to get my v14 back up and running I been crushing arohnd of the lynx for the past week and I love it but I miss the v14

[@andyl2991]

you were going pretty fast in that tunnel, too lol

[@AntiOrderAustralia]

yeah there is a lot of control on these wheels they not as dangerous as people think I think they are safer then a motor bike

I have 7000+ km on the Lynx. The absolute best upgrade you can do for the Lynx is get a Shinko 244 tire. Pedals with more spikes like the e-rides are nice for the Lynx. I bought my wife a scooter so she could ride with me, but she didn't ever learn to ride it. Maybe I over did it, my wife's scooter will go 100 kph. Dr Scholes gel inserts for your riding boots are nice. I buy the gel inserts that are meant to reduce knee stress when walking, I find those are the best at reducing vibrations when I ride, and they keep my feet happy.

@@charleskieser9740 thanks for the tips man I’m looking for shoes at the moment to ride with I do have the upgraded foot pegs the shinko tire tell me More about this why you like it so much ?

[@charleskieser9740]

@AntiOrder-r3m The Shinko 244 is a knobby, but with the perfect curved profile for a EUC. The 244 is really wide, and just barely fits on the Lynx, but that just barely fits aspect means you are putting the most possible rubber in contact with the road. The 244 is also excellent on both the street and the trail. The curve and smaller spaces between knobs makes the 244 super smooth on the streets, I originally had the stock Lynx street tire and the 244 feels better on the street than the street tire did. The 244 has a bit of weight to it, but that weight spinning outside the rim makes the 244 super stable. I have had no wobbles, and I feel more confident at high speeds than I did with the Lynx street tire. I have my 244 installed tubeless. I really like the Alpinestar Andes boots for riding. I have noticed that some of the top riders on KZbin also wearing Alpinestar Andes like Gabe from evees in Canada. I have tried many different shoes for riding, all suggested by KZbin riders, but the Andes are the best. The Andes are tall enough that they come right to the bottom of my knee pads, fully protecting my shins. The height of the boots also make the contact point between rider and unicycle super comfortable. I bought my riding buddy a pair of Andes, and he said that riding with them was so smooth that it almost felt like cheating.

I've had a hard time with bigger boots and finally settled on TCX Mood 2 Gortex and love them. And yes, the Shinko 244 is really nice on my Lynx.

[@AntiOrderAustralia]

@@Loki-rascal where do I get one of these tires from ?

[@patrickmckowen2999]

Good update. Here in Canada, Lynx 1k$ more than the V14, is it worth it 🤔. You have to learn to move your feet around while to get ride of the num foot. Cheers

[@boblatkey7160]

I had such a hard time making up my mind between these two wheels that I bought them both! 😂😂😂😂

[@AntiOrderAustralia]

@@boblatkey7160 they the best 2 wheels both of them have there own perks but I tend to like the v14 more what about you ?

[@boblatkey7160]

@ V14 for the win! But only by a little bit! 😂 Have fun!

[@AntiOrderAustralia]

@@boblatkey7160 I agree

[@mrsayers1289]

Really wish I could get a EUC!

[@AntiOrderAustralia]

@@mrsayers1289 save up and work hard my friend anything is possible

[@Haikyuu_Kenma]

Nice ride. I’m stuck between lynx and INMOTION v14 I really want the smoothest ride

[@AntiOrderAustralia]

@@Haikyuu_Kenma well both can give a smooth ride, but in my opinion the v14 is easier to learn on it turns at slow speeds better it’s more agile and feels nicer to ride The lynx is more harder to ride in slow speeds it’s not as nice to ride as the v14 but it does have more range and faster speeds the suspension feels a bit better on the lynx for longer rides and u can do seated riding I’m about to head out for a ride now and I’m looking at both not sure which one I will ride but in my opinion if I had to choose between the 2 I would pick the V14 any day of the week

[@grantdionysius8263]

I'm in Cairns and i know 2 other riders. We should get a group ride happening!

[@AntiOrderAustralia]

@@grantdionysius8263 tell me when and where what’s your number ?

[@austindeaton8436]

Can anyone tell me if the range is enough on the v14? I’m seeing it’s only about 40 miles realistically from reviews. So for it’s the best one for the price but the range is the only thing holding me back

[@AntiOrderAustralia]

@@austindeaton8436 where do I need to ride to ? The battery will outlast your ride if u riding hard
