King Song S20 Range Test (Read This First)

The King Song S20 Unicycle, which the King Song renamed as King Song S22 after some updates, is now available on the market.

Compared to the previous models of unicycles, the S20 promises to be better.

First, however, as a user, you want to know its specifications and what sets it apart from its predecessors.

You want to take your King Song S20 on a spin and see how long it can go, like doing a range test.

When doing a range test for the King Song S20, it depends on the rider’s weight. If you are a heavy rider, you will cover less range than a light rider due to the battery consumption. However, with the S20, you can cover a range of 45 miles as a heavy rider with a 19-mile-per-hour average riding speed.

In this article, I’ll explain how you can test the range of a King Song S20 electric unicycle, its specifications, and updates in the S20.

By the end of this article, you will know what to look out for in this unicycle and how far you can push it.

How Do You Test the Range of a King Song S20?

To test the range of a King Song S20, you have to check out some of its features on different terrains.

For example, ride your S20 on a bumpy, smooth road, and be creative with it. Also, consider your size when trying out your S20 unicycle; before starting your range test.

First, ensure you charge the battery of your S20 and decide on a trail you want to travel on. Like an acceleration test, this test determines how far your S20 wheels can go.

Another thing to look out for when doing your range test is the tire pressure. You can set the pressure to about 40psi, then start riding your S20.

You start a little slow and ease into it. For example, if you ride 15 miles, you can probably feel the wind on your face and go for a very long ride.

If you go slowly on the wheels, you should still have more than enough battery power.

For example, a rider rides 30 miles, and after 2 hours, he still has 60% battery power left in his S20.

If you ride at a reasonable speed on a good road with a fully charged battery, you can cover a 70 miles range or more.

You should also note the wheel of the S20; it requires more input for direction from you than the previous King Song models.

Take note of how the S20 wheels feel beneath you while riding on different trail paths.

Also, please take note of your battery consumption while on a trail; your S20 will beep to alert you when it’s low.

When this happens, and you continue on your path till you exhaust your battery, it will stop, and you can no longer ride it.

Consequently, the range you cover with your King Song S20 depends on factors like your weight, riding speed, trail, battery charge, etc.

However, people find the range ok. Although King Song states that the range for this unicycle is 200km (124 miles), at a reasonable speed, your range can be 60mph or more.

Your range might be less than 60mph if you are a heavy rider or on the trail you are riding.
