If I wouldn't read this forum, I would still be extremely happy with my V10F. No issues and the ride is really nice and comfortable. Only thing bothering me is that I need to fix my wheel and my DIY package didn't include all the parts needed for that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prior to buying my V10 I was looking for a super-comfy long-distance cruiser and my V10 is exactly that. Just went for a short 11km ride, sunny day, 15°C - life is good !

What do you mean by that? Concerning distance - I'm totally disappointed. Max of 50 km for a V10F - and no hills! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Max of 50 km for a V10F - and no hills! I should have replaced 'cruiser' by 'commuter'. My V10 does 35-40km which 'is enough', although I admit I was hoping to cross the 40km boundary more easily. Sure, the autonomy might be quite lower than a KS18L, but we're in a different price league as well. I've read reviews from people that for instance the autonomy of the Z8/Z10 was disappointing as well... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They can and do lie about range in their advertising, like everyone else. 62 miles (100km), yea right. At walking speed, maybe. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have just bought a v10f and the wheel is really cool, but I am having a few issues. I would like to know if this is happening to anyone else and has anyone found a way to fix it. in the app the speed is not registering when riding it, it shows the top speed that was reached but not the speed at the time of using it, I have used the app Darknessbot and the speed seems to work when connected to that app, I have an Iphone, and I have tried to use other Iphones but its the same issue with all the phones, so I am not sure what is wrong. The same thing happens with the energy consumption. I have attached some screen shots. This is a bit annoying but not not the end of the world. I would like to get it to work. The other thing that is happening is that when I turn the wheel tips forward significantly. I have tried to re calibrate it and it seems to be a bit better but then it happens again after a few sharper turns. I have been reading and it seems that the wheel should not do that, is that correct? Is there anything else that I can do to stop it from happening that you know of? Thanks a lot. Yes, I've been spamming Inmotion about it for the last few weeks. All my messages seem to disappear into a black hole. I think it is a quite serious bug.

Glitched Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 (edited) Jon from speedy feet UK (youtube channel) picked the V10F over the MSX for its superior livability, from his perspective (and after several different comparison tests). He compared the MSX to a ferrari and the V10F to a bentley. He found some quality of the V10F tire made the ride more smooth, regardless of the tire pressure. So annoying I have to wait until Thanksgiving for my V10F... Edited October 13, 2018 by Glitched Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MBIKER_SURFER Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 Well, that confirms my impression of the V10F riding: smooth and comfortable... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gürol Yılmaz Trapsh Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 hi, i have V10F , tested on 135km . I want to share some of my findings as a result of my test; 1- i set max speed 45km/h with darknessbot, i saw max speed same 45 km/h on inmotion app but when i using device , i could do max 36 km/h with %100 battery. started titlback with sound alert. how can i increase speed? 2- whats mean comforte and classique modes? what differences? 3- handle bar is long for v10f, can you-I change size? 4- Default Speaker Volume too Loud, 5- insufficient width of the Self-Standing Support Struts, couldnt self standing, 6- In addition, much more different LED configurations should be add, 7- Fold Pedal Down cannot be opened with the foot. it can be very comfortable to open with the foot. 8- Footboard sensitivity setup tool, what should it be? Do you have explanation? I would like to try the new firmware tests. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The max speed set is just a value which the wheels firmware can allow if the parameters fit: The firmware restricts the max speed by battery voltage. Normally wheels (firmware) calculates the charge % shown from the battery voltage: from 4.2V to some threshold below it shows 100%, then the charge % decrease linearely to 0% at somewhere around 3.3V. Every burden on the wheel (acceleration, ...) decreases (temporarely) the battery voltage by the flowing current additionally to the normal discharge process. So since the wheel decreases the maximum speed with decreasing charge (which is calculated from the battery voltage), the maximum speed can only be reached with absolutely fully charged battery (look at the battery voltage and not the charge %) with as low burden as possible. (... also Inmotion has introduced some novelties with their new(er) wheel(s) - so some specific details could be a bit different ...) 13 minutes ago, Gürol Yılmaz Trapsh said: 2- whats mean comforte and classique modes? what differences? Afair classic is the "old" motor driving algorithm and "comfort" the new one. The exact differences were posted somewhere on this forum from inmotion representatives - i don't remember them...

MBIKER_SURFER Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 (edited) Hi, you propably set in the app the classic mode. There - max speed ist at 100 % 36 km/h which is really annoying. On lower battery level max speed decreases to 31 km/h on the classic mode. And this sound - just horrible If you set the mode to comfort, you'll be able to run at least 40 km/h at 100% battery level.

Glitched Posted October 23, 2018 Share Posted October 23, 2018 (edited) So out of the box my v10f accelerates at half the speed of my 4 year old 550Wh 16" firewheel f260. haha. I haven't gotten a chance to check the tire pressure yet (I'm guessing they deflate it somewhat for shipping) or change drive modes from comfort to classic, but I hope that lights a fire under this wheel's motor because it's slooow. TBH I can't really push it past 10mph very easily at all so I must be doing something wrong. I suspect I need to have my center of gravity closer to the front edge of these massive pedals? I got it to the 2.28 firmware, petal sensitivity is 100% and pedal angle is 1 degree sloped up.
