Marty Backe Posted October 14, 2016 Share Posted October 14, 2016 Just got my MSuper V3 from Speedyfeet. Ordered it on Monday and received it by lunch on Friday, California time. Impressive order to delivery time considering the distances involved. I only gave it a quick run around the block before charging it. Tomorrow I'm going to put it through its paces and then post a video with my thoughts as to how it rides compared to my ACM. But I can say based on the couple of minutes riding it that it feels totally different than the ACM, and not in a bad way. More to follow ...

16bitSprite Posted October 14, 2016 Share Posted October 14, 2016 Congratulations. So jealous. Did you get the new 1600wh version? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marty Backe Posted October 14, 2016 Author Share Posted October 14, 2016 Thanks. No, who knows when that would have been available, and I've already been waiting a couple of months for the opportunity to buy one. I'm not waiting any longer! I think 820wh will serve me fine. 25 miles is a nice long ride and about as far as I ever feel like riding in any given day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
16bitSprite Posted October 14, 2016 Share Posted October 14, 2016 Ha ha. I can hardly blame you for that. Impatience nearly got the better of me too. Had a last minute change of heart and still went for the 1600. Have a wonderful time with your new wheel. Look forward to the video. I'll be watching it, eyes green with envy.

Marty Backe Posted October 14, 2016 Author Share Posted October 14, 2016 Here's my initial take: KingSong 14C - front wheel drive sports car ACM 16 - rear wheel drive muscle car MSuper - Nice sport utility vehicle (which btw does not equal slow) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just got back from a 15 mile ride around town. Hard to describe, but the MSuper is a very comfortable ride. And man, the pedals are amazing. They don't seem higher from the ground than the ACM pedals, so somehow it's even easier to mount. I haven't had any discomfort like I do sometimes with the other wheels. The pedals really are amazing on this wheel. And your feet seem to stick to them with the grippy surface and rubber strips. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hunka Hunka Burning Love Posted October 15, 2016 Share Posted October 15, 2016 Did they ship the batteries inside the wheel? Was it through a courier like Fedex or UPS that delivered it? I thought they had to ship the batteries separately. Was there any import fees upon delivery? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pulled it out of the box and started riding. Paid with PayPal. No customs on my end. Delivered by FedEx International. It was like ordering something from Amazon - simple and fast.

And we may have another local rider joining us, @enigma35. He messaged me, and said he may have a V8 too. Same Griffith Park. We'll do the traditional loop which you haven't actually done yet. Easy with the Ninebot, and scenic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
