Feels really good except for the bug giving the warning too early and badly done tilt back. I tested yesterday but didn’t go fast enough to notice it. Don’t upgrade before Inmotion has released a fixed version. After that it’s really good. Did some climbing test also, that feels better now. It’s really good at going uphill fast! Riding mostly on trails again. For this use this firmware is ok because you cannot go so fast anyway. The agility factor has gone way up since I’ve got used to it and now with this firmware. New riders will feel top heavy and previously also sluggish. Now the sluggish part is fixed and top heavy is a matter of learning and getting stronger. I also updated the firmware last night, with no problems. Today I went out for some extreme trail ridding, most extreme to date. I will say that the wheel performed amazing! I took several hills that had to be around 40 degrees and varied from around 50 to 100’ long. The wheel was going much faster up the hills with less effort on my part. I did not go any faster than 19mph, I took @eddiemoys advice to avoid being thrown off . So far, at least for trail riding the update has made the wheel better, imo. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I guess that’s around 34 degrees. Edited June 24, 2018 by Jpd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrelwood Posted June 25, 2018 Share Posted June 25, 2018 On the video @UniVehje needed several retries to get up about 5' long 28 degree slope. And he's got no balls missing when riding. The steepest uphill (30' long) I've done is 19 degrees. And I don't think I'll ever be able to do any steeper. 40 degrees is in a whole different ballpark, and sounds unbelievable.

Popular Post YoshiSkySun Posted June 25, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted June 25, 2018 The 17 Mile Drive in Monterey is truly amazing. The most captivating and mesmerizing emotions brought out by the waves crashing on the rocks, the smell of the ocean and just plain amazing beauty every direction you turn. This is California coastline beauty at its absolute best! 13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerome Posted June 25, 2018 Share Posted June 25, 2018 YoshiSkySun Very nice video, but it was hard to tell which euc you were riding? It there a seat? Amazing to ride in that position for such long periods. I think you do that a lot, if I recall from Marty's and other's videos. I am glad to see you making your own video. Keep it up! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am glad you had a good ride, but I think you are a little over enthusiastic with the V10F's climbing ability. A 40 degree grade would make the steepest street in the world look like flat lands at 83% incline. Even 40% ( I assume is what you meant) is steeper than any USA street climb. To go inclines longer than a ramp (50 - 100 ft) would be very impressive, especially with no over-heating. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have seen that ride from the e-boarder's point of view, which obviously concentrates on the e-boards. Eucs rule. The top e-scooters have more power, but not the maneuverability and nimbleness.

Thanks for sharing. Twin Peaks in San Francisco is one of my favorite rides. EUCs definitely rule around San Francisco for their power for climbing hills, and we often tow people to the top of Twin Peaks. But like you said, the nimbleness is key, especially in a city. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Moltimondi Posted June 25, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted June 25, 2018 I took my brand new 100V Monster for a spin yesterday. You cannot really appreciate from the video but I assure you that on my way up to this heel the incline was quite severe. The interesting thing is that pcb temperature never exceed 45° and the power of this wheel is truly spectacular. 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very cool Jeff. Thanks for posting. And at the end you caught the flavor of Griffith Park Observatory after closing hours - perfect conditions for an alien abduction And the shot of the deer running right in front of me was perfect And for anyone watching this, when Jeff is pointing that blue laser, he's attempting to light up the Hollywood Sign, but it didn't show in the video.

About how long did it take you to get to an Uber access point? It really wasn't that long, that little trail definitely sucked because I kept slipping and the wheel kept wanting to get away from me, but it was only like 5-8 min. Google sent me through the shortest path, which means it was also the steepest. Overall it was about 20 min walking before I made it to a dark road. Then about 15 min waiting for the Lyft. Could've been much longer, so no complaints here. Edited June 26, 2018 by noisycarlos 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
