Veteran SHERMAN MAX Review!!

[@jesustyronechrist2330]

I think the main reason Veteran Sherman is so beloved is something that no other EUC company offers: It just works. It doesn't combust into flames, it doesn't shatter into million pieces in a crash, water doesn't seep in and break everyting, the pedals don't flop open too easily, the screen shows all the relevant info, it has nice heft to it so it stays on points, it has the epic roll cage that you can attach stuff to... IT JUST WORKS. It isn't fancy, but because it just works for vast majority of people, it becomes the fanciest thing around.

[@rileyhall9320]

I love my Max. I took it on a group ride, parked 5 miles out from the meeting spot, rode the 17 mile course, rode back to my car and didn't worry about range for a second. The whole time I was pushing speeds between 35 to 40.

[@mr_euc2077]

excatly my point. it's boring like a Harley. I just ride it. it has range. blah blah. just getting on one felt like I had a ball and chain attached to me. you need that battery to get that jamok moving. it has its purpose I guess. I don't care for commuter eucs and this tops that list. 🙄

Amazing video, Hsiang! Thank you. Didn’t even mention the tubeless tire though! That does a lot for the centripetal force reduction which increases torque by almost 10% alone! Also affects the maintenance.

Love my Sherman Max. Was the first wheel I've gotten and the wheel I learned on. I think it up to 52 mph, crashed at 47, crashed at 35, rolled down several hills and the wheel still runs great! Great! It's definitely beat up on the outside but I love it!

Personally I love what Veteran did with the max, I think the Sherman is one of the best looking wheels to date, they kept the good looks and improved on the internals. It’s something Begode has done all through the Msuper line and something I hope Veteran continues to do with the Sherman. Minor exterior changes while continuing to improve performance. As always great video!

Yes there are faster more powerful wheels, but none with the same range. The master and s22 beat it in certain categories, but this thing is the whole package, torque, speed, range, build quality and waterproofing

Awesome review mate, I cancelled my S20/S22 order as I was 116kg / 256lbs and really wanted a big range wheel like the S20 was predicted for. I knew being that weight I would never get what they predicted but thought I should get close 120klms / 75miles range. I ended up buying the Shermax and absolutely stoked with it, I did a range test and got 155klms / 96miles range. Keep in mind I have drop a lot of weight since I ordered the Shermax to get more range. I did a Relive video and put all the stats at the end of it but due to community standards I am unable to put an outside link in this comment. I will try send you a message on FB messenger if I can find your page.

I still bought a Max coming from a V12. The high speed range is second to none.

@@Onetazien Well, much more confident inspiring. Speed is nearly the same but you feel much better cruising above 60. It forgives more forgetting to watch out for pothole. Overall it feels more planted.

[@Onetazien]

@@TheThunderwars Thanks. Another question, how does it compare off road? Thanks again!

[@TheThunderwars]

@@Onetazien I don't ride that much off road to be honest. The Sherman feels a bit better due to the extra traction of the knobby tires but the higher pedals on the V12 are much better at clearing terrain and I've never clipped them (I did however clip the Sherman max). Weight doesn't feel that different but it has a 10kgs objective weight penalty. I wouldn't say the Sherman max is an off road wheel, you'd be better off with something lighter like an RS HT but it will be able to tackle most of what you'll throw at it.

[@mike_t_007]

Thank you for the comparison! I was gung ho on getting a V12 HS this season as my first wheel but the cut off stories have caused me to hold off until I get the right wheel.

[@HH-pj1sx]

The only utuber I watch in full screen mode. Not my favorite video though, it’s like you were trying to make some kind of point but got lost in writing of it all. Whenever I happen to lurk around forums of public opinions (comments, posts etc) I almost always get this uneasy feeling that what ‘We, The People’ want absolutely doesn’t match what influencers demand from manufacturers. And of course it could be just my observational bias, but my claim is that for most people, 2 years without new wheels coming out is absolutely fine: they don’t want new wheel models, they want improvements in reliability of old ones; or for most people the biggest criticism is high weight, not lack of speed; or need for waterproofing instead of acceleration and other examples that could generally speaking be brought down to simple philosophy of most people not making euc ownership the center of their lives and not having to record videos for their followers entertainment. This bigger, faster, stronger frenzy ‘does not new followers bring’ and, in fact, I worry that eucs might fall into complete “motorcycle but more dangerous” range and that would pretty much kill the industry. Because wishing for “innovative high-performance” lines and expecting the mid-range or beginner wheels NOT to be neglected in turn is just that: wishful thinking. Euc companies simply do not have that kind of resources, and something has got to give. And an argument can be made that it’s already happened with last year/this year line ups. Plus, considering relative grey area of legality that euc occupies, "small, tasteful and discreet" would actually be a better strategy. Furthermore, in terms of design, what is “innovation” to some is an abomination to others. The so called new-age wheels all have something in common, -- they are absolutely hideous and look like carcasses of dead birds. And if the first wheel I’ve ever laid my eyes on was S22 or Master, I would’ve not given eucs a second thought. But it was Sherman, and so the love bloomed. :) That being said, opinions obviously vary, and I’ve actually seen someone claim that V12 was the ugliest design they’ve ever seen, which to me is blasphemy. But still, there are rules to the aesthetics business and most people intuitively see it in the similar way: ‘News wheels’ aren’t good looking.

[@OWGAC]

thank you for the thoughtful write up, but honestly I think the EUC companies cares neither about what we the "influencers" nor what the "forum enthusiast" ask for, all they care about is what sells. They are in it for the money and if a higher speed/ more powerful wheel sells and generate more profit, that is what they will develop. The vast majority of the ridership post nothing but vote with their wallets and they gets to make the call of what we all gets.

[@Roskellan]

Really nice review as usual. You have positioned that wheel really well. Of course the real problem is we cant get any of these wheels, just promises and hopes. And a few unsettling accounts of various faults that really shouldn't be there.

Both their wheels are called "Veteran", respective "~ Sherman" and "~ Abrams", but the company name is not "Veteran" (they were talking for a while about changing it, but after the failure with the Abrams, the talks went quiet).

Just thinking about it on a consumer level: Comparing it to an Apple product, Apple supporters will happily fork over for the newest iphone every 2 or 3 years because of the perception of improved hardware, but I feel like that uptake would slow down if it were 3500 bucks and nearly 100lbs. The Max appears not to be a significant upgrade from the previous model like you said so I'd suspect Veteran isn't too keen on pumping too much into R&D especially if they don't even have a website or logo. But for someone who's looking for an upgrade and doesn't mind not haven suspension, this might be a better option than the original Sherman(Assuming they can get it.) But that user case will dwindle the more suspension EUCs arrive from competitors. The window is shrinking.

[@manuelsanudoguerreira7319]

What is this thing with extra torque and accel. madness lately? I purchased my Sherman in 2020 and though excited about this Max sequel I never hear the Max is so much of a big deal compared to the original... A little more is just not enough for me to drift from best to unknown. I hear the Max has thicker wires and that's about it plus the bigger motor and capacity...A little more torque maybe, but a little more weight too so I can do well with the original when I go off-road and I sincerely think it wasn't designed for that in the first place.I haven't even reached its speed limits and I hardly think I'll need to, it's a real fast machine in the city , it remains very safe at 42-44 and very stable. Try that with the new wheels...Also prices have gone bonkers since I got mine and oh, boy... Am I glad I bought not one but two Shermans. I'm holding to this wheel with tooth and nail. It's faster than the max and it's torque may not be the best to climb places where a Sherman just shouldn't be so I couldn't care less. I tried the s22 lately and there's no color to it... Very comfortable and shiny and beautiful toy,and also can't wait to test the Master but I get the slight feeling it's not going to blow my mind when compared to my Veteran. Yes, suspension looks and feels real good but with such tyre of mine I don't really need it yet... Let them develop the whole package. So glad the value on my Sherman hasn't plummeted at all...Ohh, not at all by no means.Even a V1 is still unbeateable in speed and range and we'll take you just about anywhere rain or shine, tarmac or trail. I wouldn't pay what they ask for a Max right know ni harto de vino.And the Master still has a lot to demonstrate...

[@mdk42o74]

the new sherman s is looking sexy. it may be only 100v but 100v has been tested and most bugs been worked out already. i feel the sherman s will be a good choice at the new euc cost i want reliable and build quality. i wanted the s22 but way to many bad things with that wheel if i was hard core jumper i would go with the s22. the master does look sexy with the 136v but the range is about as good as my ks 16s lol. the sherman s i feel as of right now is the most all around euc coming out

[@Kamikazekman]

In my mind, till the next gen wheel proves themselves a little more, the Sherman (OG or Max) is probably the most dependable wheel on the market. It's still on the upper echelon of range which the newer Master & S22 severely lacks and performance is still very very competitive. It also has the "Tried & Tested" badge that the newer wheels still needs to earn in my eyes. Great review again mate. Stellar work! BTW, what tyre is that on the Max???

[@khmerkid213]

Would you rather the Sherman max or ex20s?

[@elgringodelasscooters9616]

Yeah bro but you didint mention the sherman max strong point wich is the max range 144 miles thats like 70 miles of fast time unlike KS s22 or Begode Mater wich comes up short 30-40miles of fast time only.

[@wutruriding1355]

Most don’t ride past 20 miles so 1800wh is the sweet spot.

[@elgringodelasscooters9616]

I mean i can understand some people but im more of a cruising guy like going long distances and if i can go faster for long distances it wont take long to get there, i care less about jumping or tricks or anything that has to do with destroying your wheel little by little.

[@wutruriding1355]

@@elgringodelasscooters9616 Understand and nothing wrong w that. That’s why there’s so many variations, something for everyone’s ride preference.

[@rameshsilva6110]

Ride feel, 4/5 ?? Without suspension ?? Thats doggy !

[@OWGAC]

Some people hate suspensions!

[@mikebikekite1]

I know everyone wants the fastest, longest range, wheel out there but how often do people ever ride at 35mph+? How often to they ride further than 40 miles at a time? How many people could even lift a Shermax up a flight of stairs? I do like that Sherman produce a fairly rugged wheel that's easy to customise but I find all these modern wheels just too big, too fast and too expensive.

[@user-lw6sp5pk1y]

Personally I would never ride a non suspension wheel 35+mph. One unforseen mild bump/pot hole is going to bounce the wheel and possibly lead to a overrun cutout. Suspension wheels good or bad are just so much better.

[@holytroller3223]

Anyone having issues with the Samsung 50e litech batteries shipped by ewheels? I saw a KZbin video where they fail and don’t provide the range. Just wondered if this is a consistent issue??

[@justinhb26]

I had to send my Shermax back to ewheels for a bms issue, I only put ~200 miles on it before I got the error code and couldn't ride the wheel.

[@mikeh6286]

I'm in favor of capping battery capacity around 2000Wh and reducing weight a bit. For long rides just put another 2000Wh in a backpack or something. 2400Wh weighs only 10kg. So a 4000Wh MSX84 weighs a total of 33kg. NOT 40-50kg and a mere 3000Wh. (that you can't strip to go to the store).

[@chrisogrady28]

I agree, The Begode hero at 36kg and 2000Wh is the heaviest I'd ever consider. If you want excessive battery and suspension you get the EX20s and that's literally a tank

this is the wheel i want.....shared

[@HungrySpinz]

Are the pedals much higher than the original? Only euc that would make me switch from the s20 but no suspension, no spiked pedals, no footrest and no seat is difficult to justify it just for the range

[@Monarhh369]

You can get all this for Shernan for $400 approximately; suspension is additional possible headache and not required for 99% of situations (like full suspension bike and the road carbon fiber bike; difference in perfomance per watt quite noticable, so no need of suspension [if crazy full speed offroad not something you obsessed about])

[@HungrySpinz]

@@Monarhh369 It's a dollar too much already for a way too expensive euc imo

[@1forfun]

Great video once again. I was considering the Max but after watching this, I think I'll pass.

[@Monarhh369]

Is it very risky to switch to road tire immediately? Still waiting for Sherman Max to be received but decided to change to road tire before 1st ride. Already watched all possible videos and read all forums, so in theory, know almost everything, but fear to do something wrong during tire replacement is here :( Need road tire for the maximum range. Bought Kenda 2.75-14 k340A-003 35P. Does anyone use this tire? How much more range I will get with the road tire on 55psi? It should be noticeable (hoping). At least a 10% range increase should be there. Please correct me if I'm thinking wrong.

[@OWGAC]

range depends on waay too many factor than just tire. yes a harder tire should get you better range but you won't know for sure until you try.

[@Aroundtheworld-ew6rx]

Isn't this illegal in nyc.

[@OWGAC]

What isn't illegal in nyc??

[@davewood1982]

I understand the frustration about been in stock but you can't just blame that on the manufacturers, these things are mass produced in a factory somewhere in china so surely a large part of the blame has to lie with the retailers for not getting decent stock levels in, although I do get their point too because this hobby is still so nich so they obviously don't wanna get stuck with loads of units they can't shift.

[@Simonisms]

Performance includes range

[@OWGAC]

true but I feel like there are very few people that would actually run out of juice on the original sherman in a single ride that I didn't feel like the upgrade made a huge difference to most.

[@Simonisms]

If leaperkim make some more general improvments and fits an even stronger motor and a 134v system on the sherman, like the master, anything will beat it.

[@dumbcat]

Electric Dreams ranked the Begode ex20s very low. He said, "It's so heavy and it moves like a frick'n ox. It doesn't turn well. It doesn't brake well. It doesn't accelerate well." I wonder why your opinions are so wildly different.

convinience is 5/5, cant emphasize it enough times you dont lift a heavy euc like that on stairs you just push it up easily on the stairs also for all those pusspapers out there who call themselves man finding a 40kg or 50kg euc heavy go do some workout honestly i wouldnt even mind if an euc would weight 100kilos as long as its a beast machine capable of doing awsomeness

[@rogerunderhill4267]

You omitted range in your performance assessment. You can’t really compare it to the Master. Apples and oranges.

[@legyroquoi]

Well as for me (or as some call me, the ultimate party pooper!) the Sherman might not be the best selling EUC, I think this award still goes to the V8 serie.. Although I do understand the hype of new powerful wheels, I'm personally more in need of a new "small" wheel, like a 16inch with suspension. Compagnies this year seem to not even want to compete Gotway, but motorcycles compagnies ! Which I personally think is not that of a good idea. Would like to have a compagny releasing a new, good, average Joe, city and offroad commuter with good screen, options, lights, attractive design..

[@OWGAC]

Well, I am gonna review the Mten next, can’t get any smaller than that!! =D

Seems like Veteran may be a one-trick pony. I wonder if they have the staff and bandwidth to develop a higher power suspension wheel at this point? If not, they could be in for hard times.

Why does he call the company veteran when its actually called leaper kim? Thats like mistaking Charger for the actual company name of Dodge and claiming Charger puts out an awesome RS (car )
