old type engine with center pin cable, fully plastic shell without any metal carcas reinforcement quite small motherboard, are you serious? After seeing this teardown price seems quite reasonable to me if not bit pricey considering early quality issues and other rivals.
FR, some companies like kingsong and begode make powerful wheels for higher prices but most come with major downsides in quality or just one big issue that always breaks the deal for you such as a screen that breaks every crash etc. often leaving you with a wheel that you think is hideous or just don’t like riding just because you wanted that extra performance. And nowadays the digital passcode and lock is a must, especially if you are a student on a big campus or a workplace that doesn’t allow you to bring it inside. this is the only company I’ve seen that does it right though.
@@mikhailkovayou will NEVER find a wheel that you don’t think is overpriced. They are assembled in batches by humans because it’s so niche that any amount of automation would far exceed the market demand.
@@ReasonRaider only expensive part of the wheel is batteries that are outsourced by Koreans, everything else is made with dirt cheap materials and cheap labour, even technology which was mostly developed by Segway is stolen and partly enhanced by euc companies so what again make that price reasonable?
Great product, the tire replace seems to be striaght foward on the V12. have you considered standardising your pedal hanger design for all future models, this would allow pedal producers great flexibility. The drone sound is a great feature perhaps consider a sound that more closely matches a hub motor sound or enhance this as the Inmotion patented sound, as the frequency of the sound during use is what riders would eventually sub consiously rely on for an indication of speed.
The motor axle crushes the cable. Why do you put the motor on the table without any side support? When I repair my wheel I place a plastic bottle under the tire/motor so the axle doesn't touch the table and bend/crush the cable, or I put it on two chairs and the axle falls in between the chairs. I hope you don't assemble the wheels like this.
@@outtatime5034 If a quick tire swap means having to sacrifice build quality (rat nest wiring, poor waterproofing, loud fans, loud motors, easily cracked shells, occasional fires, etc.) then I'll opt for Inmotion, Kingsong or Veteran every time. I haven't seen the inner workings of Begode's latest offerings, but I'm guessing it's more of the same.
@@augustleo7434 Not just quick. I don't have to loosen motor lead connections or even look at my motherboard for that matter. I just unscrew the other side and lift the shell up for total access to the tire. I say this as if tire swaps are the only reason to get a Begode. Performance. Power. Speed. Reliability. Extensive model lineup. Fires? All the brands you mentioned have had fires. Anybody getting any kind of electric vehicle should educate themselves on the risks and precautions to take.
@@outtatime5034 As it stands, I believe that Begode's wheels are overpriced for what you get. Inmotion and Kingsong are finally listening to the riding community and designing/building wheels that are faster while maintaining good QC and safety specs. I'm not here to convince you otherwise, so spend your money as you see fit - I'll do the same.
@@augustleo7434 Build quality = More complicated design This is not true. S18 came with a lot of issues in first batches but the build quality is solid. Tire swap is extremely easy compared to any other wheel. The wheel does not have any issues you mentioned above.
I have a problem with my EUC INMOTION V12. My EUC worked well for many months until I put it to the back of a car, the EUC doesn't self balance anymore. When I turn it on, I have on the screen the text "Please connect to activate". So with the INMOTION app, I tried to connect to the EUC, without success. I tried to turn on and off the EUC multiple time, reinstalling the app, restart my phone, on the original app it doesn't connect at all. So I tried with another app called "EUC word". The app successfully connect to the wheel, however I still have the screen "Please connect to activate" and the wheel doesn't self balance, so it doesn't change the problem. I can just control parameters from the app, but the wheel still doesn't self balance. Can you tell me what can I do to solve this problem please ?
I certainly like the build quality but why it has to be so unnecessary complicated to remove the motor for tire change. Why there are so many wood screws and places where silicon is applied. A motor connector nearby axle would make life easier and the connector on control unit wouldnt be needed. It would be nice to have side covers on clips with metric screws to make repeated disassembly fine
In this video he is doing a complete tear down of the wheel just to kind of show you all the pieces I’m pretty sure you don’t have to take so much apart to change the tire; Someone please correct me if I’m wrong
it looks like to me that you really need to disassemble the top cover to get to the connectors of motor, oh god why. Iam also not a big fan of long distance motor cables + sensor but the overal build quality looks good
So its just those six bolts to get the wheel out? I took them all out it wiggle and won't come free as hard as I try, took a bump and is now out of alignment and rubbing the tire not yet I can't get it out to fix
The asking price suddently doesn't seem so high, when you see the build quality, cable management, and how everything just fits together perfectly.
I totally agree! The engineering behind the design is legit.

Can you guys make a video on how to replace the bearings? Thanks
Wow, sems like the v12 doesent even need a Battery anymore! 🤯
Do you have a reference for how much torque nm for the various bolt locations?

Right 👍
Tyre change video?
So this is all you have to do just to repair a puncture?!?!?!? Deamn ill just take a bike then 🤣
Great job. The inside of an Inmotion wheel puts Begode to shame.
There's no shame in creating wheels that are quick and easy to work on when it comes time to do regular maintenance.

That’s impressively well-built. A lot of redundancy.
Slow down... 😂
To bad we can't move as fast as you Guys ✌️ keeping it wheel ✌️

can wee remoove front and back speakers ? to lighten the weel ? The sound is terrible on mine.
Hi Nicolas, yes you can remove the speakers directly.
Best psi for tire
If only my tire would come out so easily like in this vid
02:13 this part is actually very tough. I broke my hex key trying to unscrew it
I know I'm a year late, but did you figure out how to unscrew it? I'm having a lot of trouble with it
@@thewinter_ you need an assist like that guy does. Or an electric thingy. I totally fudged up and ended up having to buy a new motor rim
what kind of cells are used 24S4P 21700 molicel? or 50E or LG50?
so if my speaker works but when I smack it, it gets louder, where is that in the teardown lol
Can you fit two electric motors in it? It'll enable eKFV registration to be road legal in Germany. Also a 4kw battery would be nice.
I suggest V10s speed to 45 to 50km/h and battery increase to around 1300wh or 1500wh as it compares to begode t3.
Lots of screws! Does it seem strange to anyone that he is working on a battery powered device with a corded screwdriver?

Well and I thought teardown of s18 was quite troublesome, not anymore 😅
Keeping track of where 500 screws came from I would never be able to put it back together.
This looks like v12 has a lot more complicated way to change the tire compared to v8. And I thought that v8 tire change is difficult enough.

There are 4 longest woodscrews left and I can't remember where to screw them .
So its just those six bolts to get the wheel out? I took them all out it wiggle and won't come free as hard as I try, took a bump and is now out of alignment and rubbing the tire not yet I can't get it out to fix
that is odd.. I wonder why he did not show the battery??
I thought that was it at the 3:00 mark
The batteries are inside a sealed casing. Opening that casing would compromise the seal.
Inmotion if you’re seeing this. Please just make an 18inch v10 that can do 30-35 mph.
What a nightmare
way too complicated compared to Begode, with poor design choices.
