techyiam Posted September 13, 2023 Share Posted September 13, 2023 This is quite an upgrade. Lower pedal height too. I might have missed it, what battery cell is it using? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zeno74 Posted September 13, 2023 Share Posted September 13, 2023 I'm waiting for that, it states 2023.08, we are now in 2023.09 ;-) any idea on the availability? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supposedly to be released in 2023. So not that many months left. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So far, based on what we have seen on the spec sheet, is this the wheel you have been waiting for? It appears the V11Y is quite a complete wheel for its intended purpose.

Circuitmage Posted September 13, 2023 Share Posted September 13, 2023 My favorite part is "Gas Spring silky experience". Sounds magically delicious. I do like the orange highlights myself....better than just plain black. Looks pretty good. I just made another EUC stand this week. If I had to guess, the way they are doing their promotional videos and releases, it will be a few weeks before another announcement is made (with videos and release stuff). And another few weeks/couple of months to get them sent out. I would place my bet at 3rd week of Nov, sales before the end of the year (??), just a guess.

PeWoo Posted September 13, 2023 Share Posted September 13, 2023 (edited) Original slide rail with two sliders (black plastics elements). Definitely third one is a good improvement. Edited September 13, 2023 by PeWoo 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. The two main things I’d want to upgrade for are a better suspension and a slightly larger battery. V11Y has neither. 1 hour ago, techyiam said: It appears the V11Y is quite a complete wheel for its intended purpose. That I do agree with. 52 minutes ago, PeWoo said: Original slide rail with two sliders (black plastics elements). Definitely third one is a good improvement. I’m not so sure. Sliders in the middle wouldn’t be doing anything, since the end sliders are the ones that determine the position anyway. I’ve been experimenting with long printed sliders (12cm instead of 3cm), and I don’t think they’ve changed anything other than maybe add a slight bit more friction. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

meepmeepmayer Posted September 13, 2023 Share Posted September 13, 2023 IM needs to do less marketing and more releasing with the V11Y. What's holding this back is that it's not out yet and we don't know the price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flying Scotsman Posted September 13, 2023 Share Posted September 13, 2023 (edited) I posted a few day ago that the FCC website had a photo of the V11Y bluetooth board. I was looking at the board and couldn't quite see how it would fit the V11. It looked too wide. After taking a closer look at the photo I noticed on the silkscreen of the board that it is actually the V14 display board. Which makes more sense given the dimensions. So maybe the V11Y isn't going to have a digital display after all Edited September 13, 2023 by Flying Scotsman 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nostris Posted September 14, 2023 Share Posted September 14, 2023 On 6/11/2023 at 8:33 PM, mrelwood said: Wow, hadn’t seen that one. Thanks. I do wonder if the geometry is different on the V11 and V12. I did a few tests of letting the stand fall down while free spinning the wheel, but it never got stuck. It only sticks when and after it’s leaning into the stand. And even then it starts to rotate forwards just fine, and stays stuck only if I try to rotate the tire backwards. I think this accident happened after the original V12 HT tyre had been changed for a seriously knobbly full off road tyre. On the standard tyre the central bead stops the kickstand getting blocked in the tread of the tyre. 👍 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is quite a precise number to be called an approximate figure. Nevertheless, the V11Y is priced well for its spec's. It looks like the S16 and the V11Y are going to do battle. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kamen Rider Posted September 19, 2023 Share Posted September 19, 2023 this looks like it could be next wheel! looks like a very practical commuter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skunkmonkey Posted September 20, 2023 Share Posted September 20, 2023 I would have loved to see them add fairings on the side, and add some kind of roll cage for the top, but otherwise I think this looks like a great upgrade. I'm not a fan of the orange stripes though. It looks like it got into a fight with a V13 and lost. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HiddenPrior Posted September 23, 2023 Share Posted September 23, 2023 I like the color scheme personally, though it seems like much combined with the carbon fiber. I am excited for the V11Y though, since it seems like one of the most versatile wheels in it's weight class, and water resistance is a big deal to me. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm fairly certain that if my V11 dies before another good commuter wheel comes out that the V11Y will probably be my next wheel. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
