novazeus Posted December 31, 2023 Share Posted December 31, 2023 (edited) 40 psi COLD! check ur air pressure in the morning before u ride. a nicely max inflated tire makes the v13 perform better. and put a michelin pilot street 2 80/90-16 on it first chance u get.

novazeus Posted January 2 Share Posted January 2 @Finn Bjerkeu have the s22 and v13, and the ss. could u compare the three suspension wise? and is ur s22 upgraded with the new white ball bearing kit king song or hou nigning put out. i've never ridden a leaperkim product but as of now, i can't imagine a wheel's suspension working better for me. i don't do stairs or drops, just pasture riding and pavement. actually, with my washboard pasture surface, i wodered if the fastace suspension would hold up.

techyiam Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 On 1/2/2024 at 3:28 PM, novazeus said: i wodered if the fastace suspension would hold up. Well, the Patton and the Sherman S are popular wheels. We don't see many owners raising red flags regarding the suspension. Perhaps @Clem604 can comment on this. Although, I don't own a Veteran suspension wheel, I have very briefly ridden on them and rolling around a little bit. I even compared a S22 Pro to a Patton, and a Lynx back-to-back on a showroom floor. In terms of suspension action, I thought the Lynx was the best, the Patton, a very close second, and the S22 Pro, third. I am not sure whether the demo S22 Pro had all the linkage pin joints redone to remove all stiction though. My S22 suspension action is really good. However, I still think the Fast Ace is better. Since you don't do stairs, jumps or drops, you don't really need a rising rate linkage. If I were in your position, I would get a Veteran suspension wheel. It will be an eye opener for you. They are that good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A small amount of stiction can be felt when pressing the wheel down with my hands but can't be felt during riding.

Good to know. I didn't think the acceleration on the V13 was that bad. I didn't know the Master Pro can accelerate that much harder. Is the braking equally strong?

No acceleration ...... if u can get it, try the michelin city grip 2 in 90/80 r16. it fits and i'm switching all mine to this tire. low profile with the 80 aspect ratio, adds 2hp to the v13. plus just looks badass. if inmotion had this tire availability and the skills to mount it, this is the way it should come. ask me or euc girl. she's the one that did it first.
