JonTheMad Posted April 29, 2016 Share Posted April 29, 2016 Anyone have any details on the new Inmotion V5F? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason McNeil Posted April 29, 2016 Share Posted April 29, 2016 It's going to be a pretty decent Wheel: looks fantastic (obviously it's Inmotion!), good battery capacity, & an operating speed above 25kph. Only possible downside might be that the motor is somewhat limited in power, being in the 500W class... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Planetpapi Posted May 4, 2016 Share Posted May 4, 2016 From what I heard Inmotion is a company to watch..seems to have good quality products. But why is it not that popular ? I feel bad if a company has good products but lack of "image" kills it. It's like Subru cars. They are really great cars but people go buy Hondas and such. I hope Inmotion ramps up their marketing.

GenghisRoy Posted June 1, 2016 Share Posted June 1, 2016 is there a major riding difference in a 14" vs a 16"? I'm a total noob looking for my virgin wheel. Looking at the new v5f+ coming out soon. Thoughts? https://www.ewheels.com/product/new-preorder-inmotion-v5f/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason McNeil Posted June 1, 2016 Share Posted June 1, 2016 I'll be doing a Video review on the V5F+ in about 10 days time... The first limited US order will arrive here in the US on June 12th, UK/EU orders around ten days later (22nd). The '+' variant has the LG MH1 battery cells vs. the standard Samsung 22Ps that are found in the V5F; this gives it 50% more range & 20% more power than the standard V5F version.

BTW, the Inmotion v3 was the first EUC I have ever heard of and googled, that is, it cannot have been that unpopular. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Planetpapi has a point, until quite recently their focus was on the V3 series, which were great, but as we hard core Wheelers know, the twin/dual Wheel has it's functional limits.

Beyond Kayne Posted June 3, 2016 Share Posted June 3, 2016 Hello. I want to buy this wheel - V5F+. How can i get it? I live in Russia so there is no such country at this site! It's really hard to ride bear with vodka so i want to buy unicicle!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonTheMad Posted June 3, 2016 Author Share Posted June 3, 2016 V5F+ looks really impressive! Do you have any information if the speed is going to be 18.6 mph "out of the box", or if it will be like 12mph and upgradable by downloading some firmware or such?

mikl72 Posted June 10, 2016 Share Posted June 10, 2016 Be careful INMOTION NINEBOT FRANCE/BELGIUM said V5F+ is a fake : https://www.espritroue.fr/topic/518-nouvelle-inmotion-v5f/?do=findComment&comment=10639 INMOTION France / Belgique 1 13 messages Age: 01/09/2014 Inscrit May 10 Posté(e) il y a 18 heures Bonjour a tous Il s'agit bien d'une batterie 72 volts 4 A soit 288 w. Quant a la version soit disant 460 wh , il s'agit d'un fake : elle n'existe pas. Bonne journée. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JumpMaster Posted June 10, 2016 Share Posted June 10, 2016 That's not from Ninebot, but from InMotion themselves saying the 460wh is a fake! That's worrying. They're saying it won't be available in France until September. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
US69 Posted June 10, 2016 Share Posted June 10, 2016 If @Jason McNeil is reporting and annoucing the wheel...it WILL have the promised 460wh... It is just a easy to calculate (18s2p or 20s2p) with the highest possible Batterie LG 3500mah is in fact 460wh.....Fact! Or easier: Inmotion until now using 2200mah batteries which is 288wh....then now with 3500mah Batterie is 460wh....simple three rate calculation That "Inmotion/France-Belgium" is not knowing anything about the deal means nothing..... my 2 Cents.....

JumpMaster Posted June 10, 2016 Share Posted June 10, 2016 Yep I really want this to be true! Agreed I did the math on 20 batteries and it came up correct. Not sure how those figures work with the stipulated 40 batteries though. I know enough about electronics to know I don't know enough about electronics Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eWHEEL69 Posted June 10, 2016 Share Posted June 10, 2016 From what I can observe, inmotion France does not look very professional. The distributor of the brand does not seem very passionate! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thefork Posted June 25, 2016 Share Posted June 25, 2016 I have now placed a pre-order of the V5F+ from www.wheelgo.com. The unit seems like the perfect compromise between weight/agility and performance/range. Hopefully I will be able to use it for commuting to work (about 7 km, Stockholm city). In the meantime I will fill my time with youtube videos of other people riding the things... ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

diegoxxx Posted June 26, 2016 Share Posted June 26, 2016 what power peak jason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thefork Posted June 26, 2016 Share Posted June 26, 2016 I would also be very interested in knowing the peak power. The numbers for the V5F on www.proj42.co.uk (450W) cannot be correct, can they? Screenshot of specs from the site below. Edit: I was probably a bit tired when I posted this. I must have seen the two power ratings and assumed that one of them was PEAK power, but I see now that of course that is not the case... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
