InMotion V5+ model review

[vladmarks]

Wanted to share my most recent review of the new wheel by SCV. We recently tested the extended battery model of InMotion V5+

 

+ The button on the handle is still an MVP 

+ The pads for calves are super soft, with extra pack of ankle pads

+ Pedals are quite high and the software uses this advantage quite well

 

- Even the bigger 280Wh battery doesn't do the trick

- Speed maxed at 18 km/h is still there (I really hope that they decide to unlock a higher speed later)

 

What are your thoughts? Is this going to be a major player for EUC market?

I just bought the V5+, and the speed limit has been increased using the software, set by the distributor.. I didnt see this option in the app that was provided by Inmotion though, but speed is increased for sure.

I bet I should just update the firmware inside, cause the stats suggest the higher speed is easily achievable. It's just the initial precautions of the manufacturer that might be there.

 

How do you find the riding experience on the max speed and what is it?

[modelinn]

I have not reached the top speed yet, as i always like to cruise, usually 18-20km/h.. smooth and predictable I would say.

 What is the max speed now so? Did you try?

[modelinn]

Reached 23km/h once while testing the speed with the app.. I usually ride without using it.. I think this V5+ accelerates faster than my 9b1 E+.. very swift and agile since its smaller..
