Marcglider Posted August 11, 2018 Share Posted August 11, 2018 I just rode my Tesla for 9 miles, then the ACM for about 10, then the MCM5 for 5... I love these things... Time for a cocktail.... So my new "MUST HAVE" line-up for people who only can have 3 wheels is ACMv2. MCM5, and even though I have not ridden it yet... Z10... that would cover all avenues, range, sporty, off road, etc... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have 84V from what I gather on the forum, 100 V is slower at lower speed but have higher top end. Another issue with 100V is the charger is burning up @EUC GUY's video and from what @Marty Backe's research from facebook. At this time you'd be better off getting the 84V with 1600Wh vs ~1250Wh from 100V. It's a great machine... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Paolini Posted August 13, 2018 Share Posted August 13, 2018 Yes, I think there was some confusion by people on how Motors work - I know Alien Rides was expecting more hill climbing power with his 100V, and did not realize that torque comes from Amp while Speed comes from Volts. And in this design they are bumping from 84v to 100v raises the voltage by lowering the amps (so as you said you get a higher top end speed, but at the cost of torque in all speed ranges, you just don't notice it was much as you approach the higher speeds and lack the voltage to drive them higher). I guess what I'm saying is don't expect this to be an issue that is addressed without a complete redesign, because in general it's how all the current design works as I understand it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

downtown Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 Hi Marty. Thanks for replying. I am a newbie to the EUC world. Just bought my Inmotion V8 from Jason for several weeks and been basically riding around my neighborhood in the City of Walnut, CA. I pretty much do leisure riding and although we have slight hills here and there the V8 tackles it pretty well. I was hoping to look for something even more comfortable to ride with a little more power if I need it but at the same time not being too big and bulky which was why I was looking at your review of the MCM5. I like the V10 but also saw in one of your videos that the V10 kept on having so much issues turning off as you guys were doing mountain riding. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EXACTLY... you are comparing a 14" to a 16" wheel... you need to think about what kind of riding you are going to do and then pick the size wheel then the manufacturer... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yunicycle Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 Hi Downtown, I also live in Walnut, although I haven't seen anyone riding unicycles except me. I have a MCM5 that you are welcome to tryout if you want. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
downtown Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 Oh nice. I live very close to the Stanley Oswalt Academy School on Shadow Oak Dr. Would definitely like to check out your MCM5. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given what you are looking for and the two choices offered, I would get the V10F. I have some more positive V10F videos on my channel (see the V10F Playlist). The power issues (and the wheel was not turning off) were due to extreme mountain climbing. You would not having any issues unless climbing long steep hills.

Yunicycle Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 Yeah, no problem, anytime. I live near Lemon Creek Park, but I like riding up to Amar towards Grand through Creekside Park sometimes for leisure, so I probably pass by your area quite frequently. I had the MCM5 maybe about 2 months and hardly ride it, think I h ve a about 9 miles on it only. I prefer riding my KS 16s instead and is my main commuter. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beast@tanagra Posted October 11, 2018 Share Posted October 11, 2018 I own and ride both regularly; these are my main two wheels. Both are good at what they do, but are very different. You know the prices and specs, and the typical virtues of different-sized tires. so let me describe the feeling: It's planted vs. poised; one's a nimble tool, the other is a virtuoso partner. The MCM5 is very intuitive and will do anything you want without fighting you on it (except with some occasional, inconsistent pedal dip coming out of turns -- maybe that's just mine, though) The V10F is more of an acquired taste that requires longer-term practice. It'll also do anything you want (within its well documented-technical limitations), but you have to learn the right way to ask* it. You'll know you have it when this heavy wheel feels weightless during maneuvers. (*The high pedals mean it can do things you might not have thought to ask -- I tend to pedal scrape the MCM5.) When I reach for one of these two, it's usually the V10F, because I feel like more of my body is in on the action, leaning with the turns and mirroring the shape of the ride. I find that it rides best a little underinflated, making it grippy and carve-happy. Fully inflated, it's a bit squirely, riding on a very narrow band of flat center tread and becoming briefly unstable whenever you turn just enough to take it off that band. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
downtown Posted October 11, 2018 Share Posted October 11, 2018 I reached my max post yesterday and couldn't reply. Thank you for the feedback and comparison between the V10F and MCM5. Yunicycle, I'd love to meet up with you briefly to try out your MCM5. Please let me know how I can reach you to coordinate. I still can't send you a message yet as I am a new member. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
