Unventor Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 1 hour ago, meepmeepmayer said: 18 degrees = 34% incline - that's a lot!!!!! These numbers are meaningless anyways. Will the motor explode at 35% degrees? No. You really think the wheel can do 34%% incline for "infinite" time (until the battery runs out) without mosfet frying/cable melting/motor overheating? I wouldn't bet on it. Does not even take ride weight into account. Same incline that is easy for a 40 kg rider is crazy hard for a 100kg rider. This focus on random specs makes no sense. For reliable info, we'd need tests on what power (W) can be sustained infinitely by the motor and electronics - and then that's the power you are guaranteed to have, whatever that means for you (rider weight, speed, incline, everything else) in reality. Totally agree @meepmeepmayer Dreamworld paper specs is worth nothing. I rather have sustained specs that I can relay on. Same old story as with HiFi and speakers watts without and relationship to sound quality. So real-world sustainable specs please. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, sustained is the key word here. If the manufacturers can guarantee certain physical, sustained numbers (like wattage, current, torque, whatever) then you can trust what they say. Until then, it's marketing lies and you can only really trust what has worked for yourself for your personal weight/route/riding style.

Esash Posted March 24, 2018 Share Posted March 24, 2018 f the adjustable shell?innovation Rikkifit 9 Posted (e) 9 hours ago Hello everyone, Following the teasing of several weeks, a full picture of the V10 has finally been unveiled. The first thing we say when seeing (this photo) is that the hull and the pedals are (loud) high (normal for an OFF-Road!). Now, afterwards, when we take a closer look at one of the illustrations of the teasing, we notice that this same hull was not really so high (see comparison below). So a question arises: Is it possible that the long-awaited innovation on this V10 lies in different modes of driving? Like "Wild, Medium, Street" with each mode different shell height / pedals? Personally I would find it super classy Or the illustration of the teasing is photoshopped and I'm racing for nothing at all Wait and see!

Esash Posted March 24, 2018 Share Posted March 24, 2018 Looks like it might be coming to USA (or Korea) first: "April 10 Inmotion China officially announces the wheel, in China. Inmotion France will let the first series of production (which will go to the US or South Korea) to avoid the surprises of early youth. Then, once the wheel is made reliable, manufacture for us will start at the end of April. There is generally 3 or 4 weeks of manufacture, then 3 or 4 weeks of delivery by boat to carry the very large quantity that will be ordered.Then Inmotion France picks up the parcels (many), they put job modes in French in each package, etc ... and finally bring them to the customers. Finally they keep a little margin in the announced deadlines not to get bawled if there is a week late ... (Even if it's not the kind of house to berate others for so little ... ?). Maybe it will happen a little before, in June, but it is always risky to go too far level delays on such quantities of products made in China, even before the start of production ... there, you know everything" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just copy/pasted that from the French forum. Just pre-release speculation that the new wheel might have adjustable height. I didn't really form an opinion on the matter.

Only drawback is the duty fee. If its made in USA then no duty (only tax. free trade agre.) but if its from china... they re is a duty fee added to taxes... In this case i guess the canada market is protected to other suppliers... or we have to buy it direct from china (shipping sometime is cheaper from china then from usa, and we save an exchange rate (CAD to yen instead of CAD to USD to yen) Lets wait to see the price before... anyway signup for review form is closed Edited March 26, 2018 by Lavabo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoseInMotion Posted March 27, 2018 Share Posted March 27, 2018 We need to air ship a limited quantity of V10s for media and reviews, so we are thinking of also air shipping some extra units for our first batch of pre-orders. The first shipment will probably depart around April 10th, and it should take about 10 days to arrive in San Diego, which means arrival will be around April 20th. We haven't got an exact number of how many we can get from the factory for the first batch, but we'll ship out to customers according to our pre-order sequence, which means the earliest birds have a chance to be the first to receive the V10, the most powerful model that InMotion ever made, by April 20th. Want to be the first to receive your V10? Reserve now! https://www.ridev10.com 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

houseofjob Posted March 27, 2018 Share Posted March 27, 2018 1 minute ago, WARPed1701D said: Yes but how wide? Per the eWheels.com pre-order page: The pre-release situation on the Inmotion V10 could not be more different, unlike both Ninebot & King Song, Inmotion has traditionally held back new product infomation under a veil of secrecy until the finished product is ready for production. Nevertheless, the information that has leaked out of China is that although it is also fitted with a 16″ tire, it stands apart with it’s 2.5″ wide profile tire (previous 16″ Wheels all had 2.125″ tires), this is expected to make the V10 feel quite unlike any other 16″ which has gone before, providing superior traction & enhance the ride stability. The V10F is distinguished from the V10 with a 80 cell 680Wh capacity battery (double the size of the previous V), compared to a 60 cell 680Wh pack on& a reputed max speed of 40kph. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My first ever wheel, the IPS Lhotz, had a 2.5inch tire. It WAS wonderful though. Edited March 27, 2018 by Paddylaz 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup, hence why many mod their KS16's to do 2.5" wide. IMHO, all EUC's should be at least 2.5" wide, as this is a standard tire width for 14-18" tires (better if EUC companies adopted 16" x 3.0", as that is also a common tire size). Without suspension, our bent knees plus tire volume / contact surface area are the only ways to absorb impact from bumps, etc. Edited March 27, 2018 by houseofjob 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
