The InMotion V13 Challenger was air shipped to us to test and review. The Challenger features the fastest free spin on a EUC paired with the most safety margins we have seen on an electric unicycle to help prevent cutouts and fires. Equipped with a 22-inch fat knobby tire and suspension, this electric unicycle is made to be ridden with 100% confidence.
In this video, we unbox, set up, walkthrough, go for a ride, and tell you our initial impressions of the Inmotion V13 Challenger.

Man what an exciting time to be an EUC rider!
Very exciting!
In motion definitely has the right idea. Safety first. THESE KINDS of EUC, I would be more willing to pay.
Yes, especially since you can now do euc rising and weightlifting at the same time 😋
@@bobdebouwer7835 lol 110 lb! Definitely some weightlifting involved lol
“May you live during interesting EUC times.” -modern proverb
Got to try the v13 yesterday. While I prefer the size of smaller 18-20" wheels, the quality is unmatched. Attention to detail, smart bms, this thing is better quality than the sherman-s
Have you tried the Sherman S as well? We are excited to check out all the new wheels because they seem to have stepped up their game.
whats wrong with this wheel
Yes, clearly much better than the Sherman S
@@BigBoss-gb4cx CARE TO ELABORATE ?
I just wish this wanka had a bigger battery. That's a hungry ass 4500w motor. As a generally bigger guy who also likes range (and is a bit of a speed demon) - but what experienced euc rider isnt? Only been riding for 1.5 months too
I LOVE that the InMotion lady still says "Please ACTIVE your vehicle" after all these models and years!
And the thing I heard 1,000 times while learning to ride: "Be Careful !"
Iconic!
She says be careful after you've already fallen, which is nice, I guess.
FutureMotion, take notes y'all. This is how you respond to your community voicing their concerns! Great video, you made it feel as close to having actually bought the V13 as possible without actually buying it.
Unparalleled build quality. Thanks guys
Nice review. Like I said on the Kuji Rolls review of this wheel, this is the top of class wheel. It is likely the single best wheel ever made. If I had the money to burn I'd get one just to see if I could be tempted to do some touring on it. And that is how I see this wheel, for people with longer commutes and those who are really into touring. I know people can use it in other ways as well but I don't think that is going to be the ideal use case.
I agree! The safety margins are great on this wheel. The battery is smaller than some at only 28Ah and 3024 Wh but it's still big compared to others in the past.
We are excited to check out all the new wheels because they all have their pros and cons.
hear me out
17 inch v13 with 1700wh battery, 3500w motor with the raptor controller
that’s probably my dream wheel
The boxes are getting bigger and bigger. what a beast.
Super excited to see upcoming content on the V13 Challenger!
We are excited to ride it more and share our experience. Thanks for tuning in!
i preordered the v13 it looks amazing so far! it looks perfect for riding while sitting for people 6 feet tall and above.
Thanks Jimmy and Andrew! I really like how Inmotion keeps trying to improve their product and has a great focus on safety. If I didn't already have my Master I would consider the V13 as I don't really need the 4800wh of the Master Pro. The Master Pro is an awesome street cruiser. It is great to see the Sherman S and Inmotion V13. We are spoiled to have such great options available to us. I will definitely try out the V13 once Alienrides has it available. I am also curious about the EX30 as something with more range than a Master but not quite as big as a Master Pro. EX30 might be my sweet spot but who knows.
Awesome review. V13 is starting to become more and more appealing to me.
This one it's awesome my favorite so far I'm glad inmotion it's lessening to the people and improving every time 👌 great video guys ❤
Love your work, Jimmy! Thank you for this.
Thanks Mohamed!
You two made one of the best inmotion V13 unboxing videos I’ve seen. I have seriously considered the purchase of the V13 as my next euc. I’ve watch other reviews such as Kuji Rolls which seem pretty positive, but I believe your video has taken me over the top as the V13 being my next euc. I look forward to your next more in-depth video about the inmotion V13. Thanks
Wow, thanks!
Very nice looking wheel, thanks for showing the unboxing and your general overall thoughts what to expect when first receiving it
This wheel is a beast 🔥🔥🔥 love the video as always!
Thanks for the love! 🙏
Great review! "electric unicycle therapy" i like the sound of that.
Excellent video lots of great topics covered
Omg, Uni cycles have really evolved!!!
The thing mostly makes it cooler is it's black and dark golden contrast, very cool❤🖤💛
Thank you for the great review!
those VANS look like the perfect riding shoe, looking forward to the full review!!
Super comfy and they keep my toes warm on these cold days.
Great review!
Thanks for not doing endless speed runs.
I just need to hurry up & wait for mine to arrive in Oz.
Great vid, looking forward to the full review.
Thanks! 👍
I watched Kuji Roll's V13 review. His comments and views similar yours and Andrew's views. Very great reviews.
I just watched Zach from RevZilla review the BMW CE 04 Electric Maxi Scooter, and its amazing how the Inmotion V13 has about twice the range. If your commute is built for it, its a solid option.
thanks for the great video! Please do an in-depth review on the suspension. Everyone knows that this wheel has the best safety and power of any EUC on the market.... the big question is how does the suspension compare to the Sherman S and S22 (with CNC roller sliders)? The V11 suspension is severely lacking compared to the latest wheels on the market and the V13 uses a similar design.... so how much did they improve the suspension compared to the V11?
good to see you guys getting to try it!
Thanks for the support! I am loving this wheel.
@@Andrew-vt4jt also, you can initiate the spin kill, but you don't really need to hold it when you're lifting it. also it as free spin detection so if you lift straight up, it'll also detect and disengage.
I agree with your assessment in comparison with the Master Pro. The MasPro feels more top heavy than the V13, and that's how I feel as well about it.
WoW! I’m 79 years old and I have a couple inexpensive scooters, a Splach Twin and a Transformer. I haven’t ridden the Transformer yet, it was delivered the day after surgery (reverse total replacement,rt. shoulder) and it’s winter here in Idaho. I probably/definitely should have done some research before purchase. I was on the treadmill @ the gym and I saw the Transformer on Indiegogo and thought it looked like a good idea. Delivery was taking too long so I let them send me the Twin for ‘right now!
Love your videos, keep up the good work.
Thanks for watching and the kind words.
I got to ride the v13 this weekend in Vegas and it was an amazing wheel. Everything you guys said was spot on 👍🏼 as for the stepping up on and down I own a v11 so I’m used to the Captain Morgan stance and high pedals lol. Can’t wait to see your guy’s full review 🤙🏼
Is the pedal height same as v11 or higher?
@@360vroomers I’m not sure of the exact measurements but let me tell you I had no issues stepping up onto the v13…..it was like stepping on a bigger v11.
I might get one of these. Im in love with my black carve 3 and also planning to buy the acedeck nomad n3.
Nice!! Have been waiting for this video
Thanks for the support! 🙏
@@Andrew-vt4jt thanks for the great informative videos! 👍
Hope you enjoyed it!
Very professional job and to the point.
Thanks!
now that looks like a scary lot of fun
What a cool wheel!
I thought you were cruising at 65 MPH at first 😳 lol
This is an excellent video. Thank you mucho.
Thanks Jordan!
I grab a kabo wolf gt king after watching your video and now it looks like I have to get a v13 dam 😳 you two you got me again I love this chanel
Right on!
Looking forward to your review
looks siiiick!!! cant wait for the in depth review... real world range and top speeds... plus how does that v11 suspension stack up on this
bigger wheel...
My goodness, I would go crazy if I had one of these. I have been researching the OneWheel and the unicycle....I am leaning to the unicycles.
Hi Jimmy, V12HT solved the problems of the first V12 series model, but V13 is a plethora of other improvements. About the resistance to turn effect, Kuji mentioned as well. It has been related to bigger wheels but I wonder if using a Shinko SD244 tire with a more round profile on V13 may improve that as well. There are a lot of settings options. I hope you can comment on how they provide different outcomes for different styles and road types. Also if you could provide any feedback on how different or for what type of use would you recommend the non-suspension setting that lowers the entire vehicle. A lot to learn about this mega wheel. Thanks so much for always highlighting safety. I totally agree with you it should be the first criteria. As always, you provide sound information.
Awesome 😎 thanks brother 🙏
Looks really good! I wish it had a longer range though. If they've fixed the durability issues with the V11-style suspension this might just win out over the Sherman-s in my books
Unfortunately the suspension is the same exact design as the v11 except they added a damper per side. But the system still used a slider on rail design which gets sticky and stiff like on the v11
…which is why I’ll wait until the suspension gets upgraded to the FOX MTB equivalent or better before taking this price point seriously.
woot ! been waiting for this video
Your wait is over
@@freshlycharged review next?
I am about to order Master Pro, but I am too worried about stability at 40-50 mph speeds (coming from a Monster Pro where it is stable asf).
I would love to get a V13 if they come up with some battery mod that allows adding additional batteries.
The V13 seems to live up to the hype. 👍
Awsome video, hope everyone had a great Christmas and all the best for the new year.
Just a question of what the helmet is you guys are using? As always keep up the great work guy's.
I've watched many videos over the last couple years, and many many new wheels came out. I was excited about zero of them until this one.
Still excited about it?
@@freshlycharged ugh yah. It's the only one. Lol
I think community needs wheel like Master - just not begode-ish. That is sweet spot between power, weight and price.
Ahhh! The wait is killing me. I can’t wait for mine 😅
You'll love it Cameron! It would be sweet to ride in Portland.
Hola, nicely done video! Jimmy is becoming the CEO King, first Future Motion now Inmotion, lol. Interested to see the range test on it. Also it would be cool to show loading it into the back of the truck, with a ramp I'm assuming.
Depends on a shitload of factors of cos but I'm betting 60-70miles max for the ave rider going at a decent clip
@@scottsum1319 definitely a lot of factors are involved, but I get more than that on my Master.
You got a ramp that you'd recommend?
Thank you for your highly educational video for those who are not familiar with e-unicycles. I wonder what happens and how does the rider handle a sudden need to stop in a very short distance and time? 🤔
Until a couple minutes ago I was certain I'd never get on one of these. Now I want to find a dealer to test ride some.
They are amazing!
I just upgraded from a Nikola AR+ (67 lbs) to a Master (80 lbs). I can't believe how much more nimble the AR+ feels in comparison. I may still just have to get used to the Master but right now I'm favoring my ol' reliable Nikola 🙂 These bigger, badder wheels are starting to lose their appeal to me. That's good for my pocket book I guess😁
To each their own... as long as you are having fun!
same but we can upgrade smaller wheels. 200v mcm5
Maybe its because they use bigger tires. Eucs lose agilitt
@Bob De bouwer Yeah, that and/or pedal height I think.
@@GitDatPC my v8f has some limitations. But its light, its agile, the tire isnt wide but i put in a knobby. The grip is awesome. New wheels are nice. The t4 seems like a powerhouse. But heavy and expensive
Wooooah I shudder for the less height gifted &or leg challenged (that'd be me 😅) amongst us. I can already imagine scenarios where squashed ̶n̶u̶t̶t̶s̶ peanuts may be de snack a la mode. Its a big wheel for sure. Seems well built & I like IM packaging, best in the game. I too am exploring if I need a hyper wheel & will excitedly await rider impressions/reviews of the big 4, da V13, ShermS, EX30 & CommdPro before dropping a few Gs on it. Great day for the sport
"It seems like the light will survive most crashes"
If only the same could be said of the rider of such a beast..
😂😅😬
Love it Nice
Thanks!
Good review 👍
I like the looks of this wheel the most, but $$$ for me.
Brilliant review as always guys, straight to the point and cover the important stuff... What pedals height/position did you have the pedals on? Is the pedals hanger a 3 step up like the V12?
We left it stock at first. We didn't really get into adjusting the pedal height since Jimmy had to go to the ballet recital. We'll mess around with it some more in the next few weeks and let you know in the review.
My Sherman max and v8s shipped fully charged too. The manual for my v8s said to charge it all the way when storing for a long time. Had a li-ion battery bank that said the same thing. I wonder if the bms has some way of protecting the storage at full thing? Or maybe they're just like "better full than empty"
🤷♀️
You guys do a beautiful job on unicycle I'm a new person into it to be 12 but the v13 looks pretty beefy
Do you ride an electric unicycle currently? They do have smaller ones that are better for younger and shorter riders.
WOW!!!!
Love the idea of these, but too expensive for what it does. Getting it set up, putting on the gear, considering its weight when not being ridden. I'd take comfort to speed any day.
I do like to watch you guys zip about though.
good video
If Inmotion is seeing this... Hire this guy.
Wonder if you can put a seat pad around the handle, seat pad would have to touch frame when down to support weight, but would also keep people from trying to pick it up that way.
Wow I never knew these existed, I own a couple ebikes, pretty cool.
They are pretty sweet! We enjoy ebikes but we love electric unicycles.
Hi, why do you say the v12 was a fiasco? I checked out your review of the v12 with people doing technical jumps, etc. and the wheel seemed ok? Im curious if something happened after?
Best feature: pedal hangers that are compatible with prior aftermarket footplate designs. No one wants a proprietary attachment point that restricts cross-platform accessories; locking customers into brand-loyal upgrades is a self-sabotaging marketing tactic, which needs to be discouraged… and this includes proprietary shock designs too.
The safety aspects of this wheel are great, but it's far to big and bulky for me. I think my perfect wheel would be a V12 with the safety features of the V13 - plus a non-smoked shell so you get the full effect from the RGB lights!
It's a solid wheel.
Bigger battery capacity, and easier tire changes would've made this a GREAT wheel. It's an all day nightmare as is...
Perhaps the next version will correct this (V13F?)
It was odd that they stated before the wheel came out that tire changes would be easy and modular. I'm wondering if there's an easier way to do one than what Law experienced. Overall, a 3024 watt hour battery is big but not compared to the other new wheels.
I dont think those are fake vents, but rather cooling rigs which is nice for waterproofing
110 lbs... lmao, so crazy.
110 lbs of fun!
Riding it didn't feel like 110lbs. Picking it up though....
110 lbs is fun size ;)
Great video! Thanks!
- V11 Rider
I’ve been commuting with my V11 for 7 months, and I want it to be faster. So, I have my eye on upgrading to the V13.
Thanks for watching!
Hmm, Jimmy went to a ballet recital while Andrew rode the v13. I’m sure the ballet was cute, but I’d say Andrew won. Given the speed safety margin built in and dual hall sensors, you should never get a over speed cutout. Time will show if this is true. Needs a seat tho. IM should include a nice comfy seat especially at that price. Good short review.
Is it some effect of the camera?
They really should do more wheels that is more '' middle ground '' focused . Wheels that are simply 18 or 20 inch that are around 80 lbs cause these simply feel way too heavy imo . the only wheel I have is the v12 ht and I love how nimble it is , my next wheel id like something more stable at high speed but still has some of that nimbleness that I love about it , also suspension . If the v14 is something along what I just described , that would be such a killer wheel
I would love to the V12HT with a Raptor controller.
Seems like the kill switch should be a toggle. You’re not picking it up unless you really want to, and I’m sure you’re careful about setting it down as well. God help you if you trip taking it up the curb, lose track of the button and then have it free spinning by your knees.
With how heavy the wheel is and how small that kill switch button is, I can see that happening.
or having the wheel resting near your manhood and it starts spinnin
I bet they can change this via firmware update, we just have to ask them
My suspicion is that the kill switch is just for laying the V13 down or putting it in kickstand mode so that when picked up it’s ready to balance and go. Whereas the power cutoff should be used for lifting up the unit. Does the v13 reactivate automatically once rotated up into position?
Nice review but these look hard to balance on. Im looking for a good electric scooter for under 1k and while I have tried those bird scooters, this is my first time buying one. What would you recommend?
I'd say the VSETT 8+ or EMOVE Touring for under 1K.
love the anodised orange of the handles/rest .. but i could see them getting very easily scratched up and left with sharp edges that would need filing/sanding fairly reg with heavy daily usage. Do they do rubber surrounds for the handles to protect them?
I was thinking the same. I would definitely cover those somehow, even if it was just the face side that could contact the ground. Maybe grip tape or silicone wrap or even adhesive rubber. Oh, maybe a plasti-dip.
So many choices... maybe I'll just use good old duct tape!
Good wheel just wish it had a open design
Wow.
it was advertised online to include everything, and when I bought it it turn out it doesn't have the suspension lock. I contacted them and they said it does not come with the V13 and is a separate purchase. The wheel cost a lot of money why did they have to remove that part to piss people off?
I’m love my master 😁
The Master is a sweet wheel.
Nice video, would love to see a range test against a master pro
I'll do a range test on both and let you know. The Master Pro will have a lot more range just because the battery is more than 1.5 times it.
Noted!
@@Andrew-vt4jt thank you, I know the V13 it's going to have less range, just wanna see how much less in the same conditions as the Master Pro
im assuming they probobly sell something similiar to a PMT Tire for these as well? I know the more rounded street-tire makes a drastic difference on scooters, ide imagine the same on an EUC?
A Michelin street tire on the V13 would be awesome. I would love to see the Raptor controller offered on scooters.
I think you should lower the pressure and it should sag to around 30%. You and Andrew should have different psi for the shocks.
You are correct that we should have different PSI because of our weight difference.
@@Andrew-vt4jt definitely. You set it up for your weight. Poor jimmy was flying in the sky lol
with the rebound maxed and the psi maxed it gets a little sendy...
not a sport, a hobby at best. I pre ordered the wheel too, hopefully breaking won't be too hard to do because of weight.
When will it come out
Does the suspension feel like the v11? Or is it better with the 22 inch tires.
Does it cruise similar or better than an Abrams?
Suspension feels better than the V11 but it's been awhile since I've ridden the V11
Rides much better than the Abrams.
Imagine doing Uber Eats deliveries with this 😳
⚡⚡⚡
Awesome Guys. Great review as always 👌.
The Price and lack of travel range. Yeah nah. Still thinking about it. Besides the other new Suspension wheels.
Fair enough!
Amazing video! I’m actually a little nervous because I just ordered a v13, even though I’ve never ridden an euc. I own a Onewheel pint and it’s usually my everyday commute, so, any tips for a new user with way too much headroom to ride? Thanks!
It's not going to be the easiest wheel to learn on. It may be better to remove the suspension when trying to learn. Do you have any friends nearby that ride EUCs and can teach you on a smaller wheel?
Overall, you won't be upset getting this wheel after you learn how to ride an EUC.
@@Andrew-vt4jt well, now I’ll have to look for someone to teach me 😅 I live in a small city called Querétaro in Mexico, so this euc’s are alien type tech. Thanks for the response!
60-80% is where u want u batery for storage they did fine!
Since i'm a bigger guy, at 6'2" 280lbs (losing weight) this wheel seems right up my alley. However, I am a new rider so I'm not sure if it's too much wheel for beginners? I've never ridden an EUC (I can ride regular uni's lol) so would you still recommend it? I'll be off roading a ton with some street riding mixed in. I might pull the trigger on one soon.
lol i'm 6'10 290 and my first whee lwas a small 16x back in 2020 (i was about the same weight, but more fat. i shaped up more. irrelevant! lol) that thing could accelerate me fast and i could go 1 mph below it's top speed without beeps (31), and it's only a 1600wh wheel with a 2200w motor. this wheel will hold you fine, i'm currently on the master pro. make sure you get a strong coil shock, the stock ones suck and will bottom eventually. i tried a demo v8 in an euc store and that thing held me no problem. these hub motors have a lottt of torque (According to u-stride the v13 has half the torque of a tesla). they're just limited by the battery and voltage
Add a foldable handle bar to that and you'll be in business
