Mortal Coil Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 Teaser images of V11 seat and power pads from Inmotion These were posted on Facebook by e-riderz, my local Inmotion reseller, so I imagine they’ll be sold through the regular channels. Now you know as much as I do! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoGeorgeGo Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 I like the seat alot , i wear a backpack on long rides so if it fits in a bag comfortably im probably a customer. I just hope its not crazy expensive 🤞 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Planemo Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 Yeah the seat looks a lot better sculpted than the GW one for the MSX. In fact I'd like to try the V11 one on the MSX if I ever get the chance - it looks like it might work with a little fettling. The MSX one totally disagrees with the location of my 'bum bones' and makes my ass want to tip one side of the wheel or the other - it's totally unstable in the central position Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EUChristian Posted September 29, 2020 Share Posted September 29, 2020 The pads are attached only to the pedal suspended part, correct? In other words, the pads move up and down with your foot as you bounce? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In other words, the pads move up and down with your foot as you bounce? Yes. The pictures we’ve seen are all just computer renders, but the pads are either attached with an adhesive or more likely with bolts to the lower saddle attachment points. Or maybe even both.

Unventor Posted September 29, 2020 Share Posted September 29, 2020 Inmotion are right now collecting orders from dealers. From what I understand they did get more orders than they expected. But it will be interesting to see retail prices. I just have a feeling Inmotion might be taken by surprise as these items are things they didn't really have before or the old wheels did not needed them, but as performance goes up and range get longer and wheels move away from last mile commute then these items becomes much more interesting to riders. Now I have only seen what is shown here in this thread. But I am getting a set of all. If nothing else out of curiosity and to show support of the aftermarket. I couldn't use my KS16X seat as it is too low to sitting position for my bad knee. I can't control that movement. So I hope the V11 seat is a little higher from pedal to seat. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steven007 Posted October 16, 2020 Share Posted October 16, 2020 I just recently got quotation from myewheel: InMotion PowerPads: €60.00 InMotion Seat: €75.00 InMotion Offroad Pedals: €160.00 InMotion Charger: €100.00 If I pay now via a Paypal link they provided (they haven't set up an official page on website yet), I will be placed in pre-order list. According to Sandra, such accessories may be available since November, still, nothing is sure. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unventor Posted October 16, 2020 Share Posted October 16, 2020 I have both seat, pads and pedals on order now. I am waiting on shipping confirmation. I will let you guys know what I think. Might be a while with seat as I can't sit and ride yet. And we are getting morning frost in my area now. But I can give thought to how it feels compared to KS16X seat (that was too low for my bad knee that is why I didn't learn to ride seated yet).

In Helsinki the temperature may drop to zero in early mornings, but no frost has been seen by me so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In Helsinki the temperature may drop to zero in early mornings, but no frost has been seen by me so far. You can see on my profile I am in the west coast of Sweden (Gothenburg) cars had ice on windscreen this morning when going to hospital (still dark at 7:10-7:25). Right now I am waiting for bank transfer clears to China. But you will find a thread in reviews for my V11. I will add to this with my overall views on things I do with it. I post a link here once I have anything to report. Since I were late this morning it was a bit daunting to push up to 50kmh in the dark know there could be a slippery patch anywhere. But asphalt were free of ice this morning. I have however learned to ride without the need to grab the wheel. So I don't ride more aggressive than no pads allow me to do. I just adjusted where I ride fast and where I don't. It is about time and place. Main reason for me to test pads is to go up hills off-road or in case of emergency braking.

Did you order directly from Inmotion in China? May I ask what were the prices to compare with offers by EU dealers, for example, myewheel below? 15 hours ago, Steven007 said: I just recently got quotation from myewheel: InMotion PowerPads: €60.00 InMotion Seat: €75.00 InMotion Offroad Pedals: €160.00 InMotion Charger: €100.00 And ride safe!

So at this point I can share where I bought them from. I do expect these to be widely available. I have heard some numbers that seems high to me of preorders commitments. I think part reason is the high order volume make delivery unpredictable so dealers wait to put them up on their website until they get shipping confirmation. Also part of the high number is to keep shipping and admin cost down vs unit price. But don't worry when I know more as in have items I share more. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As far as I understood , these products are so new that dealers have not managed to put onto their websites. All information I got was from an email discussion with Sandra from myewheel, as you can see in below screenshots. The given Paypal link was https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/myewheel, you may also want to contact them for more updates. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have found a lazy option for suspension. I no longer remove the side covers, I remove the 4 top hex fasteners from the saddle, and use two small pieces of packing foam @ 1 inch wide to wedge in between the saddle and the metal support. This give me about an inch clearance and even my fat sausage hands can easily fill the top dampeners. I'm rocking the Clark pads and loving them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EUChristian Posted February 6, 2021 Share Posted February 6, 2021 Currently using this and a half inch foam which feels great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ginmotion Posted February 10, 2021 Share Posted February 10, 2021 Has anyone tried putting the Universal Clark Pads (version with 2 pucks) on their V11? I'm starting to do more and more jumps and rough mountain bike trails and I'd love to benefit from being locked in both front and back (instead of just the front on the V11 specific clark pads).

They look great but expensive to ship them to Germany....200 $ incl. freight.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wise Rides Posted February 18, 2021 Share Posted February 18, 2021 Looks like you mount the Power Pads on the foot/seat brackets and make two small holes to get at the screws underneath in case you need to disassemble and get the seat off or change a tire. It would be great if they just made the Power Pads mount with those screw holes so they could be installed and removed easily. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rawnei Posted March 22, 2021 Share Posted March 22, 2021 Got my power pads back in winter when I first got my wheel, since I swapped motor I've hardly ridden until now because I was waiting to waterproof the bearings which I did yesterday, I might have been on a total of 4-5 rides with official Inmotion power pads mounted and now they already started to fall apart, both pads have large cracks in the foam and are crumbling in in the front part of the pads where the legs touches the foam. Seems like a quality issue to me since they are hardly used, anyone else have the same issue? Put some glue there for now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rawnei Posted March 23, 2021 Share Posted March 23, 2021 So I spoke to Loomo where I bought the pads from and they said they spoke to the factory that claim it's "normal wear", if this is normal the quality sucks, my Gotway Power Pads on the MSP has lasted whole summer and winter without any such issues. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
