2020 Review of the King Song 14D Electric Unicycle

We’ve moved! Check out our FULL article here. Summary below.

The King Song 14D is an ideal choice for students, commuters, and beginners seeking a convenient “last-mile solution” in the world of electric unicycles (EUCs). Its portability, mobility, and affordability make it an excellent option for those looking to navigate urban environments efficiently.

In a market where some prioritize speed and range, the King Song 14D stands out for its practicality. It’s designed for portability, making it perfect for city dwellers and commuters. The EUC’s lightweight, approximately 30 lbs, is easily manageable, especially with the built-in trolley handle.

While newer EUC models boast impressive speed and range, the King Song 14D focuses on addressing the needs of urban riders. It offers a cruising speed of 18 mph and a range of 15-20 miles, making it a cost-effective choice for those looking for reliable transportation in city settings.

The King Song 14D places a strong emphasis on safety. With a top speed of 18 mph and a speed taper below 50% battery, it’s designed with rider safety in mind, unlike racing-oriented EUCs.

Comparing it to the Gotway Mten3, a smaller 10-inch wheel, the King Song 14D stands out for its smooth ride and stability. It handles obstacles like potholes and curbs with greater ease. The built-in trolley handle and speakers for music add to its convenience. The integrated kill switch in the handle enhances usability.

However, the King Song 14D has its limitations, primarily due to its intended use. The large foot pedals, while comfortable, can restrict maneuverability on very tight turns. The glossy finish may show scratches and dust more prominently, and additional lighting is recommended for night riding. The official King Song app could be more user-friendly, making third-party apps like EUC World or DarknessBot more appealing for riders.

For heavier riders or those tackling hilly terrain, the 14D might struggle on prolonged uphill climbs, and an upgrade to a 14S or a 16-inch wheel could be considered.

In conclusion, the King Song 14D offers exceptional value for students and commuters looking for a reliable and practical EUC. While it may have some minor flaws, it serves its intended purpose effectively.
