One of the main criteria, yes. I've got an elevator in my current flat, but I must move in in summer, so I don't know if I'll get an elevator. Plus, it will be easier for me to carry the wheel around me, in the car, with the trolley, etc. I lifted a V8 last time, and it has pretty heavy, yes. I tried a KS16S and I think it would be my limit.

What a sweet reply, thank you. I know I'll be fond of unicycles, if it's not already the case yet ! But it's also my budget thatdoesn't allow me to get a used wheel then another one. Actually, I'm taking profit of my student profile to get a nice deal with my bank. Since it's my last year as a student, it might be difficult to get a similar deal later and my income only allows me to get the student deal. So I'm looking for a wheel I can keep for a few years (because I know I'll want to upgrade!) but not be frustrated to keep a V5F until I get a better income (no offense) :') But this is not the main topic here and I don't want to get off-topic anymore

Too heavy for me :/

Thanks for your replies. I considered once buying on Aliexpress but I'm not very confident. Moreover, we've got nice unicycle shops in Paris with people fond of what they're selling, so I feel it's important to reward their passion and work by paying more yes, but paying to the right person. Concerning bying a first used wheel, I made my mind about it. I'd like to buy a wheel I don't want to sell later for upgrading. I made a lot of researchs and my last choice is between the KS16S and the V8F. That's why I'm not looking for 14" wheels. For my training, I'll look for wheel protection.

I'm reading your reply very carefully. Of course you're right. In France, the first 50 pre orders get -€200. €900 vs €1,500...

I'm looking forward buying the V8F. I've been wondering for a long time between the V8F and the KS16S. It's been a long guessing since they have their advantages and weak points. What makes me go for the V8F is the weight (I weight less than 55kg so I don't want to have my wheel heavier than a part of my own weight), the cut-off button, the design, and the price since I was looking for the 840wh KS16S. But I'm still wondering, that's so hard ! Fortunately, I've got up to my bank's response to keep guessing !
