I bought the V5F based on your video. From July to now, I have logged 800 kms (according to the IM app). I learned backwards riding with this euc. Everytime I go out, I will take the V5F. My bicycles are dusty now 😁.
It's good wheel, everything depends how far you want to go. This isn't the wheel for a long trip, because pedals are small so time to time you need to make a few minutes break because of feet pain ( i make them every 6km). I weight 91kg and the range is about 20km in summer (between 15-30C) and less than 16km in winter ( when temperature is below 10C). My girlfriend is 65kg and she can easily run on a single charge 25km on summer. The 25km/h speed limit isn't such a big problem because the wheel is 84v so you can run maximum speed for a quite long time (about 40% battery level). But if the price would be simillar maybe 100$ more i would go V8 or V8f. I wouldn't choose 67v wheel. Let me explain why. I also have ninebot one S2 which is similar wheel with inmotion v5f. Both has 500w engine, 320wh battery but because of lower voltage it has signically less range than Inmotion (17km on summer and 13km on winter). Ninebot is also slower even if both wheels have the same maximum top speed 25km/h, on the ninebot below 50% you won't get maximum speed and below 25% battery level you are able to get only 15km/h when on Inmotion you can go with 20km/h. I Hope this will help you.
The footplates has screws underneath the grip-paper, which can be easily replaced with tall-headed screws to serve as DIY spikes. Makes the snow much, much less of a problem.
Bro just made me buy one in 2024 now they are down to $459 usd shipped... after 3 segway mini's im ready for this. Btw you are a very skilled rider sir!
I know I should do that. I find it's the only way I can grip the little wheel is if I have my knees in. Jump pads would prob help but I think a new wheel is in the roster for this season
I used the small pads that came with the wheels and put them a little in front where my ankles hits. So I can use that to push. Due to my style of riding stance.... my right pad is positioned back and left side forward a little.
After 2 years with same battery. I take my morning rides everyday and could only go 5-6 miles before I start seeing last two red bars. That's only because I usually push constant top speed every time. Only doing round trips. Recharging to full takes about a hour or so. Then I go again later afternoon. It's a regular habit I have now. Two years and still nobody is using a euc here. lol Except me of course.
At least you can still get out and cruise eh :) sounds like a pretty sweet habit to have 👍 although your range is small it sounds fun. I thought I had noone here either but through these videos I have found one fellow rider which is awesome
I didn't like the range of the V5f. With my weight it's only 15 km. It is great for learning to ride, but not for long distances. I also did 1000 km...then the cops took my V5f. I am still waiting for that fine, but then again I didn't break any laws. The cops just don't know the law.
The range can be quite limiting, this is true. Still fun for learning tricks n stuff tho imo. That's wild about the cops, I have never heard of that happening to anyone before. It's not like you were speeding 😅
Hi Awesome video. Is Inmotion v5f still worth it to buy this 2022 ? Im thinking of buying begode mcm5 v2 but i watched alot of videos saying it have more tendecy to burn. That is why I am thinking of buying Inmotion v5f . Thank you
I believe it may be as simple as tightening a loose set screw on the pedal hanger but it doesn't bother me much. So I have not done any looking in to it.
@@whatsthedewheel2029 Right, you may want to do it before you lose the screw entirely, though the screw is unnecessary, except for preventing the pedals freely rotating over the pedal axis :-) In my experience it becomes lose quickly again unless fixed with loctite.
Man i just bent down while riding to set on the front light on my v5f and u know it is touch and i accidentally turned the whole euc off and went face down on the ground. Damn stupid light switch function..
Can you help it’s saying danger but I’m not really going fast but it’s feels like when I’m riding it feels like it’s not properly balancing right And then it says danger is there something wrong with my wheel please help
Great video.I just got my first euc, used v8 .It´s -10c here and i already cracked the shell a bit on my learning process but hope some super glue will fix the crack. Keep up the good stuff!
Things such as weight load, grade, and temperature affect a batteries life. Perhaps the rating wasn’t for the climate conditions that you’re traveling through.

Would you recommend it? I'm thinking of getting one.

get the v8 or v10. youll out grow this in days. its very slow and very poor range
@@Acolis I'm learning that very fat
If you can...... Try to straighten your legs without squeezing your knees inward together. Takes time, but you get it soon. You'll feel the force.
I know I should do that. I find it's the only way I can grip the little wheel is if I have my knees in. Jump pads would prob help but I think a new wheel is in the roster for this season

The future is a very EUC friendly place!
that was a honest review, thanks!
Can you still recommend Inmotion 5VF this 2022?
Esperando mi primera rueda, será la próxima semana (espero); objetivo principal, un poco de off road suave; salud. Buen video 🤙

did you get your v5 back? thats alot of money for them to take. Tho they are still in a grey legal area.
@@steve00alt70
I already considered my V5f to be destroyed or sold. But to be continued.
@@BunnyslippersEUC thats crazy D: i'll probably go with the segway one cheap option incase that happens to me too. Im from uk
@@steve00alt70
Now I got Sherman and MSP. I didn't stop for police. Sherman is a bit expensive. I won't stop for police.

Did you buy one? if so, what do you think? 2023 now and i am thinking about getting the v5f:)
👍 👍 👍
Nice vid, did you figure out how to tighten the pedals meanwhile?
I believe it may be as simple as tightening a loose set screw on the pedal hanger but it doesn't bother me much. So I have not done any looking in to it.
@@whatsthedewheel2029 Right, you may want to do it before you lose the screw entirely, though the screw is unnecessary, except for preventing the pedals freely rotating over the pedal axis :-)

I loose a screw. And bought a box full of them. I just only needed one 😅.

What's the best electric unicycle for heavy people 250 pounds in weight, please?
I wonder how far it would take someone who weighs 240 pounds (108 kg)?
what is the range in winter?
Can you help it’s saying danger but I’m not really going fast but it’s feels like when I’m riding it feels like it’s not properly balancing right And then it says danger is there something wrong with my wheel please help
Hola; solucionaste tu duda ?; va bien el aparato ?; que rueda tienes ?. Salud 🤙

Exciting stuff with your new wheel. You'll get the hang of it. Will keep the vids rolling out soon
@@whatsthedewheel2029hey. You upgraded wheel into which model?
How much do you please?
Things such as weight load, grade, and temperature affect a batteries life. Perhaps the rating wasn’t for the climate conditions that you’re traveling through.
Yo great beginner video my man, you should consider putting footnotes converting km/miles or say miles real quick for us small brain Americans.
Ah good idea. Will do in future vids!
EUC is not a real wheel til it has some scratches!
