Best ask the dealer where you are buying the V11. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Finn Bjerke Posted August 3, 2020 Author Share Posted August 3, 2020 (edited) Its a hole for the fan that leaves the inside open to water and the dirt. Not thought thru but prob fixable....

Skywalker Posted August 3, 2020 Share Posted August 3, 2020 Buying from eWheels. I know he is really busy so I did not want to ask if others had already. Duff said his other wheel had the z type bearing so maybe the answer is a waterproofing modification so water does not reach that part of the wheel.

They don't have a spec sheet, but the 2nd and 3rd banners at the top of the page state that the fans are "waterproof and moistureproof". 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EUCGUY Posted August 3, 2020 Share Posted August 3, 2020 11 hours ago, Finn Bjerke said: More info for techy ppl here: they for sure went all in on production here. so many small plastic parts to cover things up with. must have been expensive to make all the molds, but im sure this will be the wheel to lift them forward. looks very premium. I like the open motor design also, now they have room to make the cable upto specs for the high currents. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
