Marty Backe Posted October 10, 2016 Share Posted October 10, 2016 I just received the tracking number for my MSuper V3, and will have it this Friday (just in time for some weekend riding - yea). I've been watching MSuper videos, etc. for a long time now, but all from countries outside of the United States. Envious, yes! Well finally there are two dealers now shipping to the States, so we'll soon have more local opinions. I myself will be comparing it to my ACM V2. With this purchase I complete my wheel trifecta, wanting to own a powerful 14, 16, and 18 inch wheel. More to follow after I get some miles under my belt.

Jrkline "Wheel Whisperer" Posted October 11, 2016 Share Posted October 11, 2016 Took the 2 batteries out of the Rockwheel GR16 and made the ACM 900 wh so I guess it's 6.5 .Rode it for first time today since the upgrade and got 27 miles before I had a flat.Still had 40% battery left!

Wow, that's impressive. And Oh-No, a flat? Do you know yet what caused it? I know you like to run the psi at the upper level (beyond the ratings on the tire?) - wonder if that contributed? Getting a flat is the one thing I worry about sometimes when I'm away from civilization. I'm going to have to put together a compact repair kit for when I get bitten.

Greg Spalding Posted October 11, 2016 Share Posted October 11, 2016 i guess that the 84V/1600Wh version is essentially VAPORWARE at this moment in time we got a bit of a glimpse into what King Song is doing in the future... we aren't as sure about GotWay at THIS point Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty sure I hit a nail.I was off-roading on a bridal path when it happened.It's ironic but right before it happened I remembered I had yet to slime the ACM.(Slime is an anti puncture sealant for tires) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jrkline "Wheel Whisperer" Posted October 11, 2016 Share Posted October 11, 2016 I'm sure if I had it in the ACM it would have been helpful because it was a puncture that took about 30 seconds to deflate the tire.I neglected to do it before my ride today and paid the price.I was too eager to try out the new range of my ACM since I just completed the battery upgrade mod from 640wh to 900+ wh.

Even though I have trusted products like slime, I always wondered how useful they were in a narrow width tire that was providing the only contact between me and the ground Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, one of my friend got one(probably the first in this world) and its great. I regret I got 67.2V version instead of 84V. It just because I(and some others) couldn't wait. I asked my friend to test the lift speed of his V3-84V, he tested but cannot hold 'the frightening monster' steady. Today, before we rode together in the evening, I had the chance to lift test his 84V version, 63.2km/h cut off app speed! This does not means that one can ride the 84V version at 50km/h, it means if we both ride at 30km/h, 84V version has better safety margin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg Spalding Posted October 11, 2016 Share Posted October 11, 2016 very interesting the expression "FRIGHTENING MONSTER" is a bit concerning, however... LOL i just would like MORE SAFETY MARGIN... and, more range fascinated to hear more thanks for the info Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
