InMotion V12 High Torque | UK Review

If you've seen our V12 (High Speed) review then you won't find many surprises here. The High Torque version is basically the same wheel but with more powerful motor. Ian's range is as usual quite low at just over 27 miles of extreme riding and to fully utilise the power of this machine you need spiked footplates and side pads.

I've never had any problems accidentally turning it on or not putting the kickstand down correctly. Those are user errors

Nice review. I ride a V12 HT and suspect that you were not chucked off the wheel due it having too much torque. You were not going crazy fast and apparently also not accelerating hard, so you could not have been hanging forward and thus had nothing to do with torque. I suspect that it has more to do with the V12 HT tire being pumped up rock solid hard, out of the box. If you do not deflate the tires a bit, when you start riding the wheel, it will *not* give you any suspension compared to a more deflated wheel. That was my experience; I was almost thrown of the wheel twice in my first week of riding the V12 HT with "stock tire pressure". Just let some air out of the tire to regain some suspension, but note that it will make the wheel more vulnerable to sharp edges / curbs.

Cool, do it. Get it done, we're behind you.

Ian looks different WOW amazing what a bit of slap & a combe can do

Are you sure that you have production version of V12HT? Mine has completelly different mudguard, much bigger and better. I have no problem with the screen, I can see it clearly during sunny days. Also no issues with the button ank kickstand. Very satisfied after 400 km. But mine V12HT has problem with the pedal angle, sometimes are too leaned to front, sometimes more to back and I always have settings to -1°. Calibration helps but I have to do it very often, almost every day...

I love the attention to detail, such feedback about minor issues like the power button position and kickstand issue is very important. Please disregard these rude people in the comments acting insecure about it.
To give feedback like that is the only way to get better products in the end.

Such a beautiful wheel and I really want one, but the scares you get when reading all the bad experiences people have had with the V12 makes me not press the order button :/. Hopefully Inmotion manages to adress all V12 issues before the V13 is released.

Riding a V12 HS here, with no pads, and I've noticed the settings play a big part, sounds like you were riding 100% (stiff) with no pads, whereas I find say 60%/40% (accel/brake) split is better with no pads. What % were you riding Ian with no pads?

[A-Viking]

The HS had long breaking distance, is it shorter on the HT version?

[stevemiller]

At what battery percentage are you no longer able to go 35mph?
That's about max anyone should ever ryde a 16", so as long as you can still reach close to that at a decent battery percentage, I'm sold.

Seems like a preview V12 HT with light blue screen characters. Mine is white and bright. Also this wheel comes with a lot of possibilities to tweak around. At first, I felt also that power pads could be necessary because I could not trigger acceleration easily enough. But modifying the balance just one degree forward solved completely the issue, and I felt just like skiing.

Seems like an under tested review.

How much weight can those 'foot plates' take without snapping off?

[LorentzHallMusic]

Thanks for a great review.

Being Swedish I'm wondering what sidepads are? How far you'd get in a city environment? What's the price? How many recharge cycles until the battery becomes shitty? Is it worth the investment?

Thanks!

I have a high speed and my friend has a high torque. I ALWAYS go farther in distance on one charge and my battery always has more available than his on the same settings. He wishes he had my top speed and the extra torque he has is almost negligible when compared to mine. Also, my wheel was much more maneuverable and nimble than his was. I had the desire to sell my HS to get the HT when it came out until I realized how much he had desired mine. His temperatures are always higher than mine and after riding too long the wheel would hit a threshold of 30km until it cooled down. For my needs, the extra speed, distance, nimbleness, and lower heat are much more important that climbing hills or taking off slightly faster. Your needs may be different. I do want the orange rim though.

Hey where did you get the stand for your euc? Thank you in advance!! 🎉

[EdLrandom]

You shouldn't ride any wheels without side pads over 20kph. They have to include some sidepads in the box now, a lot of models are actually being sold in regular tech-type stores with 45psi stock tire pressure, combined with high top speed a tiny hole in the ground will kick you off in the air and it's very bad for our comunity because people will think this is what EUC riding is like. Buying EUC is actually easier than buying any of the available sidepads meaning there are alot of people who ride casually getting preventable injuries. I know good pads are like $200 but they shouldn't be, they should be mass-produced and included in the box! Also breaking, you have to have them for emergency breaking!

Don't look down for speed. If you must know your speed use a watch or phone but ideally you should never look for your speed. You should feel the speed. If you feel like you are going too fast or too slow, then adjust accordingly. PSA: Always slow down around people. I love the accent to!

Harry seems like a nice guy, but reviews by someone who barely understands the topic and has little experience aren't all that beneficial so this new direction for the SF YT channel is a bit odd. Regular viewer here, but I had to give up after the first few minutes of this video and frankly other recent videos on this channel. Again it's not Harry's fault. He's doing a fine job given his knowledge and experience, but the end result isn't great.

Stop putting your thumb on the button...yeap, you need a smart watch to use euc world app...

[oldtrappertom]

What happened to Ian's hair? trying a new colour? Or things are ging south? :-) Just kidding
