It will go into overload and tilt me off the back slowly if I try to accelerate faster than that. Just make sure you have sufficient battery when doing full on accelerations.

After a week of riding it though, I think I got more confident with it, and now I actually find it accelerates pretty rapidly. I just had to get used to leaning forward a lot more than I'm used to with other wheels. (I am on the out-of-the-box firmware... 1.1.6 or 1.1.7 I think?) I'm 205lbs, and I'd say I can get the V10F from 0 to 25mph in just under 3 seconds. It will go into overload and tilt me off the back slowly if I try to accelerate faster than that. the way mine came, the pedals were tilted down in the front. 0 degrees as the app reads isn’t level. i used a two foot level on the pedals. when i set it level, it was way easier to accelerate. i bet if you set the pedals tilted back a little, even more acceleration might be possible. these are the biggest pedals ever so you do have to adjust to the change in leverage, i think.

soulson Posted July 13, 2018 Share Posted July 13, 2018 I wanted to be conservative with my estimate last night—you know, memory has a way of exaggerating things—but I timed it this morning on my way to work. My 0-25mph acceleration limit before overload is 2 seconds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gon2fast Posted July 13, 2018 Share Posted July 13, 2018 I obtained a V10, not the F model, from Inmotion a couple weeks ago and it has taken everything that I have thrown at it. I am roughly 245-250lbs with gear and have had no malfunctions in the 190 miles that I have put on the unit. I was a bit disappointed that I could not obtain the F model, but in retrospect I am very satisfied with my purchase. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The main dissatisfaction you might have is the sluggish acceleration. I havent ridden the KS18L, but will report back when i do. Please do, love your take on the V10F so the MSX (which of course I bought so biased towards a MSX review hehe) would be something for sure. Perhaps not PC but must admit I like the speed! ?

You are 250lbs and are commenting on the non-F model with no problems, awesome. Two questions for you: 1) do you do hills at all? 2) did you put that cool checkered flag graphic on your pedals?
