I wouldn't be surprised if Jason would let you switch your Z10 pre-order to a V10F, even if you don't get it for a while. And you might find that a Z6 works just about as well for your ranch purposes as a Z10 anyway, for half the price. Same wheel, same body, good motor for dinking around, $800-$900. i always wanted to try an inmotion because they were so reliable and popular, so with the v10f coming along and beating segway to market, i knew i was gonna get one at least. at $1440 the presale price, from inmotion directly in the states, and now i have the wheel compared to my other wheels, what a bargain. even at $1600 for overall use, this is the wheel i would pick, but hotway is off the table for me. i don’t want a ferrari wheel. the v10f is more like a vw touareg tdi lux wheel. perfect for me. no hurry on the 10z or 6z, they aren’t offering a pre sale discount. i can sit back and get some impressions of how people like the fat tire. funny i was thinking tn on how to describe what my different wheels feel like especially after burning some watts on my18s today. i’d say it takes more deliberate effort to “drive” the 18” wheel with the 2.5” tire and same but not as much with the v10f and i was laughing because drive is an appropriatedescription because with the bigger wheels my arms are sometimes out in front flailing like i’m steering a big air steering wheel. slightly smaller air steering wheel with the v10f. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No allegiance maybe, rather a new hater? Nope, I just posted to the "wrong" thread (should have been to the poster's KS rants). Actually I have noting against V10/V10F. I was commenting on being tired of the KS complaining from a poster and just saying that those types of bashing won't influence my wheel purchasing decision. I personally think the V10 series is going to be a winner. At the same price I take the V10 over the KS16S. If the KS16S price comes down from the V10, then I would get the KS16S. The V10F is a no sell for me, as it is likely going to cost the same as the coming KS18L and Z10 and is more expensive then the Tesla and ACM2. No INMotion hating here. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
novazeus Posted May 12, 2018 Share Posted May 12, 2018 when i go to settings, the first screen that pops up is inmotion warning me not to go faster than 14mph and the speed slider is rest to 14mph. i move it to 24mph and exit. everytime i open the settings page, same thing. haven’t tried running it to see if my higher speed stayed locked in. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, gee, that’s my fault, I called InMotion and warned them about you — they decided it was best that they permanently lock your V10 at a max of 14mph...........My Bad ?

There is a speed limit when you don't connect the app? In others words: Can I ride it to 24mph without the app? Another question is if you can lift the wheel carefully until it reaches his top speed and measure it with the app? Thanks you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks you in the app it shows in the middle speed setting 14.9999 but i can ride it faster and not get tiltback. i started with the version jeffrey emailed us and did the upgrade. where is the official app download.

Thanks you The Wheel comes from the factory with a speed limit of 25 km/h......you need to connect with the app to unlock/set the speed limit that you want up to a max of 40 km/h. The app does have a speedometer, so yes I suppose you can do a lift test and see the speed on the app, basically like any other wheel app. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn’t get worse with speed and when my son rides it there is no noise at all. I had high hopes for this wheel , having had a v5f+ . That was a solid wheel. There’s definitely nothing stuck in there and it’s as clean as a whistle inside. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess I should’ve been less excited to get it, probably wouldn’t have got a lemon ? so ur the other one that gets lemons all the time. yeah i’m amazed how refined this wheel is. when i get a good android app that will be cool. i’ve got everything the way i want it now. hard pedals and what’s really cool to me, is to be able to put a level on a pedal and dial it in to level. i’m pretty sure my van’s and the silicone footpads now rough up a little from both brand new, will be perfect. i rode all my expensive wheels today 18s, 16s and v10f, as far as foot comfort v10f, close second 18s lagging far behind 16s. but to be fair, that’s my road surface, i run max sidewall pressure in the tires so the 16s is giving up a lot from the get go. all three solid wheels but if the 18s and 16s had a beautiful smart athletic daughter, it would be the v10f. very comfortable ride.

You've eliminated the possibility of the valve/valve cap hitting some part of the shell? Try decreasing the tire psi to see if that helps. Not being there it's hard to diagnose remotely, but I don't think there's a motor problem. 4 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
