Blackwheel Jack Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 Good to see you on the Forum, King Ma! Here's something for you to think about - I am a 66 year old, lightly-built male and I have had an Airwheel for 2 years now. I was almost ready to buy a V8 as an upgrade from the Airwheel when I began to realise I was getting lower-back pain from the bumps and vibrations of the the rough surfaces I have to ride on. I am now very reluctant to invest more money in this mode of transport if it is going to cause pain to my spine. Has your company considered adding some type of shock absorber or suspension to a wheel? My age, and the fact that I have a history of lower back strains may mean that I am suffering where a younger, fitter person would not have a problem. Nevertheless, I have been reducing the number of rides I have on my wheel to avoid discomfort. I am very disappointed about this because I love the experience of 'Wheeling' and I really thought it might be my future transport around my city. What do you think about the idea of shock absorbers on an Electric Wheel? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mono Posted August 24, 2017 Share Posted August 24, 2017 The currently available solutions are (i) a fat tire run with comparatively low pressure. That rules out the V8, on which even the 2.125 only barely fits. (ii) soften the knees, which is exhausting (muscles will build up) but adds comfort to the back and safety in general.

Circuitmage Posted August 24, 2017 Share Posted August 24, 2017 @Blackwheel Jack gell shoe inserts? After riding 2 days in a row, I experienced lower back pain, but on my 3rd day riding it went away. For me, it was simply using new muscles that I wasn't used to. Maybe do some sit-ups or conditioning for the areas (??0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stan Onymous Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 There are top milage people who have hacked the app to make themselves the leaders. This week's top leader even brags about cheating the milage on his Time line, and other social media. It is very discouraging for the users and is possibly the reason why people use other apps and forums instead of the Inmotion one. But a guy having 22,000 miles on a L6 is just not possible in real life driving. He was using a dremmel to fool the wheel, but now has hacked into the app. I want no part in that sort of Tom foolery! Why does Inmotion sanction this behavior by allowing it so stridently to take place? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I must say that I’m not at all surprised, we had one flurry of activity from him for about two weeks and then he hasn’t been back to the forum since September 4th. I don’t think he lasted very long in the job and he certainly squirmed about and became uncommunicative when challenged on the Inmotion / Solowheel deal. A real pity as good representation by Inmotion on this forum would be a huge asset. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barone Cornadure Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 Hello friend, when will a faster and more powerful Inmotion come out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loving my V8, but always having to ride deep into tiltback just to get the extra couple of kph to go a bit faster than the limiting 30 kph; its no fun. Have been waiting for a year for a possible "V10" with 18 inches and 50 kph capability. Well, tired of waiting already, so just bought myself a Gotway Tesla. Other than being obviously heavier and bulkier (and more effort is needed to control it due to the fact that I'm a scrawny 127 pound guy), surprisingly, the Tesla and the V8 ride characteristics seems pretty similar - responsive and fast (53 kph tested)!

t0me Posted November 4, 2017 Share Posted November 4, 2017 Hi, could I ask a question about the SCV correction? What is the correct procedure? Does tilt have to be set to 0.0 first? Does it need to be on and resting on either front or rear bumper, or on its side (and if on the side is there any consideration if I've got lots of padding preventing it from the same horizontal it would have been without it)?

Meng Yang Posted November 4, 2017 Share Posted November 4, 2017 My understanding of the SCV Correction procedure is: Power ON wheel Disregard tilt value Hold power-cut button below handlebar Guild wheel forward to rest on front bumper while holding power-cut button Press SCV Correction button on phone app See "Correction succeed" message displayed on phone app Guild wheel to upright position again while still holding power-cut button Release power-cut button Set tilt value - be it default or some other values Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WaveCut Posted November 4, 2017 Share Posted November 4, 2017 You dont need to hold power cut all way there, just set wheel to "parking mode" on a front bumper and you're OK to calibrate it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Toronto Posted November 17, 2017 Share Posted November 17, 2017 Hi King Ma et. al., I basically signed up to the forum to get an answer to one question - but it's a bit urgent. I'm riding my inmotion v8 in a parade (of about 4 or 5 km. - 2 or 3 miles) this Saturday evening. It's supposed to rain all day Saturday. How bad is riding an inmotion v8 in the rain? What if it's fairly light rain? Temperature will be about 8 degrees celsius, maybe 45 or 50 degrees fahrenheit. Is there any way of protecting it from damage (wrapping it in plastic foil?) Will there be damage? Could it survive just fine? Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hunka Hunka Burning Love Posted November 17, 2017 Share Posted November 17, 2017 There's definitely a rubber gasket near the handle which helps avoid ingress. Also the control panel appears to be well isolated from water in general. The battery pack is also encased in a plastic shell so I would say short of total water immersion, the V8 looks to be fairly well water resistant as far as I can see.

What if it's fairly light rain? As @Hunka Hunka Burning Love wrote it should go fine, inmotion is known for quite well build wheels. Also quite no EUC is really waterproof. There where imho quite some success reports of all kinds of wheels driven in (espessially ligjt) rain... Some reports were imho with smaller malfunctions (power button?) once in a while. To be on the safe side you could tinker yourself some rain suit for the V8!? Quote Temperaturewill be about 8 degrees celsius, maybe 45 or 50 degrees fahrenheit. Try to get the wheel well temperated to the parade! Batteries loose quite some capacitance and current delivering abilities at cold temps! Also you're going to drive well above sub zero temps, be prepared of possible "wobbly" behaviour, unexpected tiltbacks. Maybe make a testride at such temps before?

WaveCut Posted November 17, 2017 Share Posted November 17, 2017 @Johnny Toronto There is often tightness issues between external radiator and controller box (rubber edge installed bad), if you're familiar with tech i would recommend to disassemble and check it. also, battery container is not waterproof, it has sticker on the top but its almost useless and not long enough to cover "ceiling". Also water gets into container from the bottom, while wheel driving over puddles. Personally i would strongly recommend to not to use V8 in the rain at all!
