The sports performance of the flat pedal is not as good as the keel pedal, many of us have always had this preconceived notion, theoretically because of the frame structure, the sports performance of the flat pedal model is indeed not as high as the limit of the keel pedal, but this limit is not touched by most people. There are also many riders who choose keel pedals because of the pursuit of sports performance when making a choice. In fact, among the flat pedal models, there are also models with good sports performance, such as the hunting lightning dog 150 that I have ridden for more than half a year, after a long time of use, Xiaobian found that practicality and sportiness can still be taken into account to a certain extent, and the performance of the lightning dog 150 in all aspects is also very amazing.
Lightning Dog 150 ride space performance
As a flat pedal model, the hunting lightning dog flat pedal space is not large, because the body is relatively compact, the wheelbase of the lightning dog is relatively small in the flat pedal models of the same level, of course, although the design of the short wheelbase sacrifices the flat pedal space, but in exchange for a more flexible control experience, which also lays a certain foundation for the control of the lightning dog.
Of course, as a flat pedal model, the first thing to say is absolutely comfort, the width of the flat pedal allows the legs and feet to have more free adjustment space, although the flat pedal space of the lightning dog is not large, but the designer is equipped with a front pedal for the lightning dog, Xiaobian 173cm height legs can be fully straightened, to a large extent to ensure the comfort of the hunting lightning dog long-distance riding. And this car is also quite good at suppressing vibration, except for a short period of low-speed vibration at the start, most of the speed range, there will be no uncomfortable vibration.
Lightning Dog 150 accelerates performance
I don't know if I was shocked when I tested it, and the acceleration performance test of the Hunting Lightning Dog 150 was amazing! As a flat-pedal model, the Lightning Dog 150 does not emphasize sporty performance, and the engine is also developed in-house, let alone boasting about how powerful its own engine is, because of this, when it comes to the test results, the results beyond expectations are amazing.
After testing, the acceleration time of the Lightning Dog 150 is as follows: the best acceleration time of 0-30km/h is 1.68 seconds, the best acceleration time of 0-60km/h is 4.82 seconds, the best acceleration time of 0-80km/h is 9.49 seconds, and the best acceleration time of 0-100km/h is 16.33 seconds. The temperature was 19.52 degrees Celsius, and the weight of the editor was 62kg, which can be said to have exceeded expectations, with an acceleration of 16.33 seconds close to NMAX155, which also means that it has surpassed most 150 pedal models, and even better than some 200cc pedal acceleration results. As a four-valve machine, the Lightning Dog 150 has a strong low-rev explosive force, excellent initial acceleration performance, and the power curve of the entire engine is quite linear, and the power output is very stable in frequent acceleration tests.
The results of the extreme speed test were also done by the way,The measured lightning dog150GPS maximum speed is115km/h,And the display of the meter header118km/h,The error between the actual speed and the displayed speed is quite small,It seems that the hunt is still very confident in its own products,There is no need for a happy watch to please users。
Lightning Dog 150 braking performance
Running fast also can be braked, Lightning Dog 150 is equipped with front and rear disc brakes, and the front and rear brakes are Nissin's brake calipers and brake pumps, the specifications are comparable to Honda PCX, this level of brake is very rare in the domestic brand 150 pedal, so the braking performance of this car is also quite confident.
The best braking time for 30km/h-0 is 2.74 meters in 0.92 seconds, the best braking time for 60km/h-0 is 13.18 meters in 1.85 seconds, and the best braking time for 80km/h-0 is 25.13 meters in 2.52 seconds. The 100km/h-0 brake has no suitable section to do, so I can only give up regretfully. The braking performance of the Lightning Dog 150 is very stable, and its feel is excellent, ABS will not intervene prematurely, so its braking distance is short, and the braking time is also short, and the results are naturally quite eye-catching.
In addition, the lightning dog 150 is equipped with TCS function, but this test is not very easy to show, in fact, I want to know whether TCS is working properly, whether the timing and logic of intervention will work, as long as you go to this soft base of gravel riding, you can obviously feel it. The most intuitive manifestation is to enter this kind of road, the throttle cannot be added, because the grip of the rear wheels is insufficient, and TCS will frequently intervene to limit the power output. Although many people will complain that TCS without electronic throttle is nonsense, but on the current small-displacement scooter, mechanical throttle plus TCS function is still the best solution.
Lightning Dog 150 handling performance
Although many people will think that even if the flat pedal model blows through the sky, its handling cannot catch up with the keel-style pedal. But after actually riding it, I found that the handling of the lightning dog is definitely not bad, whether it is a corner or a continuous tangential lane change, the traction of this car and the grip of the tires can give you strong confidence.
However, because the general inclination angle of the scooter is not large enough, the Lightning Dog 150 will also have a large brac on the left side and an exhaust grind on the right, but it will not affect daily riding, because few people ride a bicycle in normal times, and the inclination angle is eaten full when cornering, unless you do some extreme tests or go running mountains like me. In corners, the Lightning Dog did not have a lack of support for the rear shock because its center of gravity was relatively backward. When doing the brake test in the front, the front shock absorber did not say that it bottomed out due to excessive compression, resulting in the instability of the body.
Therefore, the chassis frame of the Lightning Dog 150, the front and rear shock absorption, as well as the matching of brakes and tires, actually take care of some sports performance, but it does not sacrifice comfort because of this, a little sports style but not much, after all, as a flat pedal model, it is more to take care of the practicality and comfort in daily riding.
Lightning Dog 150 non-paved performance
A scooter like this flat pedal design is actually most afraid of big bumps and potholes, because this kind of road condition tests the stability of the frame the most. The ground clearance of the lightning dog 150 is not very high, and the front and rear shock absorption is not adjusted for this road condition, but in this kind of dirt road that is not particularly bumpy, the shock absorption effect is quite good, the fine vibration will not be transmitted too much, and the shock absorption of large potholes is also enough to deal with it.
And this set of tires is obviously not set for non-paved roads, but the overall performance of the Lightning Dog 150 on dirt roads is in line with psychological expectations, not so bad and not particularly outstanding, the riding performance level of the entire non-paved road can meet most of the dirt road conditions encountered in daily riding.
The Lightning Dog 150 is strong in terms of overall strength
As a rare flat pedal model in the 150 class, the advantages of the Hunting Lightning Dog 150 are very obvious, not only has a more convenient flat pedal design, but also has excellent performance, which is not inferior to the joint venture brand model. For riders who like flat pedals, the Lightning Dog 150 is indeed a rare choice.
This time, the comprehensive measurement of the Hunter Lightning Dog 150, the only thing missing may be the fuel consumption data, because I may have to ride this car for a small long distance later, so the performance of the Hunting Lightning Dog 150 in terms of fuel consumption, when the time comes, I will have a good chat after running the long distance.
