Also I rode with all four top screws removed last night, it doesn't affect ride-ability at all as the side mounts keep it in place. Awesome news! Duf, what would I do without you? lol Thanks for the info! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post AtlasP Posted July 17, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted July 17, 2020 (edited) I can confirm/verify that the wheel in Jimmy's review (and Duf's, and Mickey's, etc) is the same first pre-production which does *not* have the separate negative pressure adjust--I checked and it only had a black screw there in place of an adjustment valve. (HT to my g/f for the fancy photo skills as it was kinda tricky to get this shot.) Edited July 17, 2020 by AtlasP 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Patton250 Posted July 17, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted July 17, 2020 The more I ride this thing the more I have to agree with all those that say it’s the most solid riding wheel ever. It really is. Plus wait until all of you see the build quality on this thing. I know there were some problems with some screws but that has more to do with the guy putting it together then the quality of the product. This thing screams quality. I might even get used to the tire. I don’t know. I do wish it went a little faster though. It would have been nice if the top speed was 42 mph. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

onizukagto Posted July 18, 2020 Share Posted July 18, 2020 8 hours ago, SteveO said: Just watched Jimmy's review and it's got me a little worried....that saddle doesnt look like its engineered properly to handle the weight of a seat and a person bouncing up and down. Adding material to an existing plastic part is easy, just make the mold bigger (remove volume from the cavity). That said, it's an expensive solution. The cheaper, faster solution to the saddle fixture points is just add metal inserts to reinforce that area. And as everyone said, the main load point will be the handle. If you see the picture of exV with the V11 saddle removed, the structure under it, is pretty solid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inmotion V11: "HOLD MY BEER " WOW the V11 motor is no joke! . It killed the Veteran Sherman up this 40 degree hill and now the Sherman will also get it's power reduced via firmware, thus making it less powerful but safer. Now I'm starting to think there is a real possibility that the V11 might actually survive Marty's brutal Overheat Hill stress test. That would be Amazing! The V11 just keep getting better and better Edited July 18, 2020 by VizioN-Scope 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I might want to do an easy mod on them though. Think I might screw out the all metal pegs and then put grip tape on the pedal and then cut out all the cutout parts and then screw the pegs back in. Making everything even more grippy. Maybe I'll put a nice colored grip tape on them instead of just normal black grip tape. The picture above is just to show what I mean. The red color is an illustration to shows some of the part where I will put grip tape. I will of course put it all over the pedal like this. I think I will buy grip tape on ebay or amazon. https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=m570.l1313&_nkw=color+grip+tape&_sacat=0 Edited July 18, 2020 by VizioN-Scope 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kurt_hectic Posted July 18, 2020 Share Posted July 18, 2020 It looks like they were inspired by Nylonove: https://hulaj.market/en/electric-unicycles/126-nylonove-nylon-feet-for-the-euc-ninebot-z10.html But... Nylon is a better material in terms of resistance to damage- don't crack (I have such pedals on my mtb bike), and is lighter. Inmotion used some weird nits, nylonove has typical mtb one with adjustable height. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it has enough power but not enough leverage to access the power. Kinda funny though about the climbing ability of the v11, cos that hill in the video seems steeper then @Jpd local hill, that doesn't look all that steep.

I’m going to try that hill again today, maybe I’ll make it all the way. The difference with my hill is that it is very long, probably 1/4 mile also that guy is pretty small, I probably weigh 50 pounds more than him.

I think INMOTION has a big hit on they’re hands. I would still like to have this wheel without suspension as well. Imagine this wheel 10 lbs lighter and 200dlls cheaper. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good point, just do it without wearing your backpack. you'll be 50 pounds lighter, right? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
