WenInPhilly Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 (edited) Hi folks, I've been riding my V10F for about 10 months now and I love it. My only complaint was that the trolley handle is way too loose. It kinda ruins the experience of pushing it around or even propping it up against a wall. A couple months ago, I commissioned my good friend to help design a spacer to fix the looseness of the V10F handle. We've gone through several designs and materials before finally settling on a final version. I've been using this version for a couple months now and the handle feel is super tight and perfect! If anyone is interested, we've listed a kit on Amazon at a modest sale price of $15. The kit includes various sized spacers and the tools and instructions needed to install. Let me know if you have any questions! https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07RWTG71J Install video. Tip: use loctite threadlocker on the 2 set screws that attach the handle to the red knuckle http://tinyurl.com/v10spacerkit Edited July 17, 2019 by WenInPhilly 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fuzzypixel Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 The kit and the video look good. I just bought a V10F and immediately disliked the flimsiness of the handle and was considering ways to address it, thinking along the same way you guys did. Would you consider selling a cheaper kit without the tools? I've got plenty of my own. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will update you. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scubadragonsan Posted July 30, 2019 Share Posted July 30, 2019 WenInPhilly, which grade of loctite threadlocker do you recommend on the screws--red, blue or purple? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WenInPhilly Posted August 1, 2019 Author Share Posted August 1, 2019 Blue, green or purple. Red cannot be removed without heat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leadfeathers Posted August 1, 2019 Share Posted August 1, 2019 (edited) Hi Wen, Thanks for making these spacers. I tried putting the smallest one in between the handle bar and the lug and it won't fit (too snug). But the handle without the spacer is still fairly loose and jiggles when moved. So I took a closer look at the two metal surfaces that should be touching each other and it looks like they are highly uneven. It looks like this is just extremely unfinished metal. I wonder if I can sand this down or something... Edit: I may use some Vinyl tape around the handle lug to buff up the thickness, then poke a hole through it to allow the mechanism through.
