Tishawn Fahie Posted February 28, 2017 Share Posted February 28, 2017 Hello All, I recently got the MSuper V3S + 1600 model. I figured I'll contribute to the forums and give a review on it along with a speed test speed up to 30MPH~!. Please enjoy! Thanks. Any question do not hesitate to let me know! As always keep it wheel! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LorenW Posted February 28, 2017 Share Posted February 28, 2017 This is a great video. Great coverage of pros and cons. Thank you. Drone footage too?! Very cool. The wheel looks like an absolute beast! I fear for your life though!! I pray you don't really feel like you need to push the upper limit of the wheel, especially without big-time protection!

swvision Posted March 2, 2017 Share Posted March 2, 2017 Dude if you are going to push that thing over 30mph or even over 25mph wear full body protection. Please, man. We don't want to lose you here. Trust me, as an v3s+ owner, its hard to predict what kind of obstacles will pop up even when you're at expert level. I was recently going over 25+ on my msuper v3s+ and hit a raised part of a concrete sidewalk pavement. In that split second where it needed to hop over the ridge it wasn't able to provide enough torque to make it. After that I've been taking it easy.

I had a faceplant on my old ACM when I didn't see a section of raised sidewalk Fortunately no injuries. Now when I'm riding my eyes are like the Cylons in Battlestar Galactica - always scanning the path in front of me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I slow down even if the street look uneven! No headphones no music my eyes are glued to the ground most of the time. I can't describe the feeling but it's an hydrenalin rush being in traffic like that! Knock on wood no face plants since the Ninebot days.....

dpong Posted March 3, 2017 Share Posted March 3, 2017 Hey, Tishawn, I encourage you to continue and go forth with your YouTube channel. Your videos are well made and you have that, umh.. X-factor, or what do you say... Star Power. You are very watchable. Keep up the good work! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hold on now, what happened on the Ninebot? Please, I ride one, what happened? I agree with @dpong you have some serious video and riding skills. I've seen the one with the drone on the pier, and you ride very fast everywhere. I'm just riding a little in the bike trails, and you ride to work.

Smoother Posted March 3, 2017 Share Posted March 3, 2017 Yes, it's actually a shame how much scanning of the next 2 seconds and then the next 10 seconds of our paths we have to do to stay safe. I often find myself wheeling through a beautiful part of the world only to have , mostly, seen only the ugly, dirty, dog shit stroon, path I'm riding on. Oh well, there's always the Ebike I suppose ? @Tishawn Fahie nice drone shots, how high was that thing? But at those speeds, its not a matter of IF you come off, but WHEN, and on that day you will be in a world of hurt, my brother. Please think about some protection.

Smoother Posted March 3, 2017 Share Posted March 3, 2017 Lol, hell no! I'm much prettier than that! (Only joking, I'm old and going grey) no. I snagged this pic off Tinternet. Some poor guy was having a bad day, and judging by that hospital bed in the background, it's more extensive than just his face. No, at the speeds I ride, you'd have to swing a log at my face to get those injuries. Don't get any ideas! I just imagine that's what a face might look like after sliding down the road at 30 mph with just a cloth hat for "protection" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicks dig scars, but not this: I'm thinking about the same thing, each time I see pics like this one, because I never wear any protections. I thought about something, instead of having an unpleasant helmet, why not a necklace airbag ? It has prooven to be safer than a helmet, and it protects better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pingouin Posted March 3, 2017 Share Posted March 3, 2017 Have a look here http://www.hovding.com/how_hovding_works It cost 299 euros, with a 50% discount on the second one, it seems a little expensive, but compared to a good motorbike helmet it's not that much, the great advantage is that it doesn't cover your head all the time, only your neck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roue Libre Posted March 3, 2017 Share Posted March 3, 2017 @Tishawn Fahie You speak about a lighter wheel that would be as powerful ? Rockwheel GT 16 might be your next wheel after MSuper ... Yes technology is going sooo fast nowadays Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yourtoys7 Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 very, very nice review, but please wear protection gear. I don't know if you every fell from one yet, I did on my mcm 3 at 35km/h. Wasn't fun at all, I walked away with minimal demage... sorta. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Believe it or not I commute to work on this thing everyday... 30 miles a day. I am wearing a helmet when commuting.. For casual riding i use the wrist guards... As bad as this sounds I hate helmets - I'm not comfortable wearing them - I feel like it limits my head movements when looking around I know it sounds stupid.... I can't really describe it....

Other times it was Ninebot releasing a firmware that pretty much made the wheel unstable for awhile... Then I owned the P... which everyone on here knows at some point it was prone to fail..It was so bad they stop making them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes it really is a shame that you have to scan and basically ride to stay alive instead of riding to enjoy... The day I come home with scar or fracture of any kind my wife will probably toss all of my wheels.. maybe including me out the window haha!!

I've fallen plenty of times..back in the day.. I actually have a messed up wrist - got it while learning how to ride backwards.. fell on it.. While i'm fine occasionally it hurts... Trust me when I know i'm riding and is about to push the wheel I am usually protected.... The review I was so excited to test it I ran out the house forgetting that I need protection..lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LanghamP Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 Have you put protective padding on your wheel? If so how do you get it to stick? I ask because even double-sided gorilla tape seems completely unable to stick to my 1600. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
