CLOUDWHEEL Rovers 165R Mini Review & Efficiency Test

Описание: In today's video, I test out the Cloudwheel Rovers to see how efficient they are. In addition to that, I chat about my opinions on the wheels in different categories of wheel experience.

The Cloudwheel Rovers are an interesting new design from Cloudwheel, combining the large size of traditional pneumatic tires, with the construction and materials of the traditional Cloudwheels. the Rovers use a plastic wheel hub, surrounded by the outer foam-urethane layer.

In this video, I used the Cloudwheel provided 60T pulleys on my DIY setup that I use for all of the wheel tests. With a ratio of 15 to 60, I was able to have decent torque, and I think this helped contribute to the efficiency number in the end. While is important to realize that this number isn't perfectly comparable to a smaller wheel setup, where I use a 15:40 ratio, I test things for realistic solutions, and it is completely unrealistic to run a 15:40 ratio on such a ginormous wheel.

If you're curious which pulleys I have, I got the set that claims to be compatible with Ownboard Zeus / Carbon / Bamboo / etc. I will mention it in the review, but with this setup, I BARELY had enough axle length on my extended 50mm Boardnamics axles. The inner bearing on the pulley was switched to an 8mm one on my setup instead of the 9.175 one that ships with it.
