InMotion V8

Advantages: 1. When lifting the wheel by the carrying handle, the wheel turns off the engine; 2. When driving, you can use a belt, because the engine shutdown button is deactivated when driving! 3. The wheel is parked vertically, because there are special stops on the wing, and it is not necessary to turn it off, just press the button under the handle and park; 4. No adapter for wheel inflation! It is no longer needed, there is a special window; 5. The lamp is very bright, you can really drive in the dark. They did not forget to install red at the back, but I recommend buying more on the head; 6. Built-in retractable handle, with which it is convenient to control the wheel while you are walking; 7. High footrests allow you to turn with a much smaller radius; 8. The wheel is neither narrow nor wide. And it won't dangle, and you won't have to put your feet on the wheel. Golden mean; 9. Some kind of highly intelligent wheel travel. This is a breakthrough !; 10. Range in summer up to 45-50 km (see comment); 11. It is possible not to quickly change the battery, if anyone is interested in conquering ultra-long distances (see comment); 12. Very convenient charge indicator; 13. You can turn off the voice guidance; 14. You can replace the voice guidance, including your own voice (see comment); 15. You can turn off the illumination without the application (raise and turn on the flashlight); 16. You can change the animation of the illumination (see comment); 17. You can ride in winter if you change your shoes in winter tires (see comment).

Disadvantages: It is hard to carry for a long time up the stairs across the railway; The side covers are thin, they can crack on impact, they are not sold separately, only the whole body, which is about 5000 rubles; Rubs the calf muscles on the plastic and ankle joint. The set includes soft pillows, but they must be glued according to the instructions below, not above. An added benefit is being able to lift the wheel in a jump by grabbing onto these pads to get past a small obstacle like a curb / sidewalk / curb. But for the upper part of the unicycle, you can temporarily use an elastic bandage under the pants until the calf muscles get used to the plastic; In the modes of deep customization, almost everywhere there are hieroglyphs, be smart and everything will work out. The Android application does not work on Samsung S3 Mini and Tab3, but works with the cheap Meizu M3S and M3 Note.

Comment: An application for Android and iOS opens up additional possibilities (this is a separate topic). The initial pairing code is 000000. You need to connect the device directly from the application. After installing the application, you will receive an update request (not the wheels, but the application). Safely tick the box to install from a third-party application. Attention! I highly do not recommend updating the wheel firmware (FirmWare), because you have a stable firmware installed, but they are uploading the ones that have not been run in yet, so follow the forums. Supplement to clause 10. Keep in mind that 50 km is a 25/70 calculation (in a straight line at +25, 70 kg the rider's weight and a speed of 15 km / h, in real life with my weight of 92 kg the distance is about 42 km.At 0 degrees - 31 km, at -10 already 24 km, at -15 about 20 km and this is on clean asphalt, if on snow, subtract 20-30% (roughly). Supplement to clause 11. In principle, in dry weather in summer, this can be done on the road in 20 minutes. The battery costs about 20,000 rubles. Supplement to clause 14. I chose the English voice package, then I replaced each command separately (with the new firmware on Android it is filled in with lightning speed) Addition to item 16. Each frame is "rendered" separately. Control of each LED separately. Select a group of primary colors, as well as from the palette (16 million colors). The duration of each frame is set. Only one scheme can be "poured" into a monowheel. In the latest version, the schemes are filled in quickly. The factory circuit is listed. Supplement to clause 17. Do not remove the pedals, it is not necessary. It takes 20 minutes to change my tire / tube with inflation. You need a Phillips screwdriver to unscrew 16 screws and one Allen key to unscrew 8 bolts. Winter studded does not fit. The pressure in the winter tire is exactly 2.5bar, on the summer tire from 2.8 to 4.6 bar, this is very important! Puncture the camera, you cannot drive the wheel - you will "kill" the tire and it costs 1,500 rubles, the camera is 600 rubles.

Advantages: Excellent value for money / appearance / tech. characteristics. I chose a relatively light wheel with decent mileage and power. A good front flashlight, a convenient retractable handle and many other thoughtful little things that have already been written about here. In this weight, this wheel has no competitors.

Disadvantages: Very fragile case. If this is your first wheel and you are just learning to ride, take care of serious protection of the device. In two hours of training, I smashed the side panels, which are now all cracked. Plastic is very fragile. Therefore, I advise you to immediately stick the so-called "noodles" on the wheel around the perimeter. I regret that I did not do this right away, in the end I had to order spare side panels for Ali, which cost me 3500. And even if you know how to ride, no one is immune from an accidental fall, and one fall is enough for this plastic.

Comment: Together with the sidewalls, I also ordered special soft pads on aliexpress, which should improve comfort, and it is also possible to protect the wheel a little in case of falls. As a result, the first two days of skiing cost me an additional 5500)

Advantages: Powerful engine Great design Popular model Engine shut-off button under the handle Lantern Carry handle 16 inch wheel, good tire

Disadvantages: Well ... expensive. The flashlight is weak. only very slowly at night you can go. Very easily soiled case. Put it - there may already be a wear. Charging sometimes makes strange buzzing sounds - it may break.

Comment: Before that I rode a no-name, after that imo - just a Thing! Rides smoothly, the charge of 30 kilometers is enough for accurate, high-quality assembled. I ride up to 20 km / h so that the engine power is always enough if that.

Advantages: Became the proud owner of Inmotion V8. The wheel fully meets my expectations ... 1. Light - 13.5 kg. 2. Very fast - more than 25 km / h (maybe 35 km / h with re-flashing, normally up to 30 km / h) I still don't go, because firstly - not safe, secondly - I don't wear protection. It feels like 25 km / h in about 3 seconds with my weight from a standstill. (very playful) 3. Easily handles my 110 kg weight up any hill in an urban setting. 4. The run from one charge to work and back "eats up" only 40 percent (15 km in both directions, there are small ups and downs). 5. Compact, no complications in the metro. 6. Bright "Chinese" side illumination - motorists notice you well at pedestrian crossings. 7. Comfortable footrests for my size 45. The legs are very comfortable.Do not get tired at all. In terms of price - expectations, I still think this is the best wheel for 2019. Here I go on, harder and more .. definitely not necessary ... This is just more than enough to travel to work with pleasure. By the way, I got on it 1 day before a confident ride. I wrapped my legs with an elastic bandage, and essentially drove in a straight line. It is good that next to the house there is a bike path 2 km of a straight ideal road. I learned to turn well after 2 hours. By the evening I had already mastered thoroughly. By time I get to work in 25-30 minutes .. By car without traffic jams in 20 minutes .. with traffic jams about 1 hour. My opinion is that the wheel is the real best on the market. I recommend it to everyone .. I am still thinking of buying my son, a little simpler - Inmotion V5F. On this I am afraid it will be killed simply. He will be 10 years old this year.

Disadvantages: In fact, not found, you can find fault with the light of the "headlight" as it is essentially nothing more than a daytime running light. But I think unicycle will probably never have a good "automobile" light in the near future ..

Comment:

Advantages: Optimal weight / power reserve ratio for me; price quality. It can be easily disassembled, with skill it takes 30 minutes to replace a camera in a wheel with a screwdriver.

Disadvantages: The body does not like falls very much, but they certainly happen. Immediately after the purchase, you need to do moisture protection - if your hands are straight, you can do it yourself, you need to halve the case and coat the joints with a sealant, otherwise the headlight board will oxidize. It is difficult to find a suitable tire, I found it on the 3rd attempt and this is not a kanga, the rest sat on the rim crookedly and while riding, there was a beating, because of which the body is rubbed and the muscles of the legs instinctively tighten, which leads to fatigue.

Comment: The body would be made of a more impact-resistant plastic. In the photo, a wheel bought in 17, the battery lasts for 15 km at maximum speed, temperatures above 7 degrees, headwind not stronger than 3 m / s.

Advantages: Design Good speed and max. mileage (25-30 km / h is the most, higher is already dangerous) Does not sag on uphill slopes Very convenient handle for transportation SUPER convenient button for wheel transfer Weight

Disadvantages: A soiled body that collects dust Lack of soft sides in the kit (which is important, however, only for beginners) No sensitivity adjustment The mobile application has its own troubles For owners of other InMotion wheels - The charger connector is different.

Comment: Luxurious unicycle. Obedient, fast, very well behaved on the road. Best for those planning to ride it around town - the weight + handle + carry button makes it the most practical wheel for this purpose. Perhaps not the best choice for beginners due to the easily scratched case and the lack of soft side pads, but definitely a great option for the experienced person. UPDATE: Do not glue soft ankle pads unnecessarily. If you want to take them off, then you are tortured to remove the glue, it is disgusting.

Advantages: Bright and memorable design, powerful motor for people up to 100 kg. the very thing. Retractable handle, Smart standard handle. Bluetooth for customization, Slim body.

Disadvantages: With a new 'removable handle hides back with effort, but does not dangle. not suitable for jumping ON the curb as slips out of the grip. Pedals require maintenance, or some modifications in the form of rubber glue strips to extend the life of standard sandpaper.

Comment: For $ 30, it is possible to buy a protective case, which will allow you to go a little extreme during the day, if you sew material to it to grip the wheel before jumping, who does not like the backlight can generally glue the entire wheel with a film. But so it loses its individuality. For that kind of money, it's almost impossible to find a better solution. The ergonomics for riding on one leg are top notch, but people over 185 should still opt for the 18-inch model. V-8 - This is the best gift for the new year for fans of electric vehicles. Buy this miracle, despite the minor flaws. After all, it is difficult to get such pleasure from a skateboard or roller skates, and on holidays under the warm southern sun you will not have to rent scooters, because this one will fit into any suitcase, just wrapped in rags and checked in luggage.

Advantages: The weight of the device the button under the handle the design is beautiful if anyone cares about the light bulbs shining price was

Disadvantages: 1. Power reserve with my weight of 103 kg + briefcase 105-107 kg. on the slope and off-road garas it goes about 30-35 km, well, this is really not enough 2, The soiled case is already all shattered somewhere there is already a crack 3, This build quality after 200 km burned out some sensor took it to repair 2000 cost. 2 times I pierced the tire, I myself disassembled it somewhere the wires squeezed through somewhere the bare wire sticks out shorter than the build quality china. but while everything works 4, this is protection from water, as I understood the manufacturer does not immediately do it, but in vain. 5, speaker 6 has already begun to rattle, this is a handle, I drive a lot off-road and used to fall into the sand from this, the entire handle is filled with a squeak and then it does not work well, it is not possible to stick it into the body 7, to glue the tire, you need to disassemble the entire wheel, although this is not very complicated.

Comment: The total mileage of 537 km is now in 1 month, the weather was good, I almost didn’t climb off of it, I like it, enjoy the city, look with new eyes so to speak. I ride it a lot off-road, it is difficult to ride it on the sand, you fall and the handle breaks from it. I liked the technique, but the city is not yet adapted for it everywhere. the price is a little expensive of course for Russia.

Advantages: Light weight, built-in handle, power reserve, speed 30 km / h

Disadvantages: The light is not very good, but as I understand it, it is so with all electric unicycle.

Comment: Our first wheel with the girl. Chose from reviews. Before the first training, I bought a soft insulation for pipes and wrapped it around the entire surface, especially the ribs, cutting out a place for the headlight and the handle. It turned out to be reliable protection at the training stage. I got on this wheel on the third day, in total it took 4-5 hours. My girl is more cautious than me, she went on the 5th day, it took her 6-7 hours in total. And I think another 6 hours is needed to move around the city comfortably. At the same time, the wheel almost fell, because we were doing it carefully and with a belt, so I was in vain worried about the fragile plastic. Several times it fell during jumping training, but with protection I am calm for the plastic. Overall a very pleasant experience.

Advantages: - the only 16 "wheel weighing 13.5 kg. There are still no alternatives. - very convenient for office workers - it has a" closed case ", that is, dirt almost does not fly from it - well suited as the first wheel (only additional case) - a convenient shutdown button built into the handle - ideal for girls and flimsy boys who are in no hurry and combine metro + wheel

Disadvantages: - small battery, "pendulums" and "selling" are possible, not suitable for fast driving - the flashlight shines, but does not illuminate anything. You won't be able to ride with him at night.- the handle is flimsy and uncomfortable - with active driving, the battery runs out "before our eyes" - absolutely not suitable for heavy men weighing 95+ kg due to the small battery and low power of the wheel itself - the glossy body is scratched and covered with dust

Comment: The wheel is very good if you understand what purpose it is intended for. It is not suitable for trips across the city, for driving in winter, for races and records, for men weighing 95 kg + Very well suited for users weighing up to 80 kg who need to get to the metro or car sharing, for leisurely walks up to 30 km at speeds up to 25 km / h.
