Riding Reinvented: V11 Pioneers Air-Spring Suspension, 2200W Motor, and a Game-Changing 120km Range
Just hit the 3000km mark with my V11, and figured it's high time for a chat about this bad boy. Strap in, 'cause there's more to it than meets the eye.
Lights: A Dazzling Disco on Wheels 🌟
The V11's got headlights that are bright enough to make you believe in UFOs. They're wide, they reach far, and most importantly, they won't blind the poor souls in front of you. A big shoutout to InMotion for these dazzling beams that turn night rides into a disco on wheels. And guess what? The rear light is no slouch either – seen from the sides, it's practically a lighthouse. The Daytime Running Light? Let's just say it makes the V11 as recognizable as your grandma's apple pie.
Suspension: Smooth Sailing on the Ride Often Club ⛵
Took me a bit to get the hang of it, but once I did, it's been smooth sailing. Never had to worry about road bumps giving me a surprise somersault. The Ride Often Club, you know? I give it a tweak every now and then, just for the fun of it. No air lost, no fuss, and it's as good as new after 3000kms.
Handle: Effortless Folding, Unfolding, and More 🧳
Folding and unfolding? Easier than folding a napkin at a fancy restaurant. Takes up just a smidge of space, doesn't rattle, and doubles up as a helmet holder – ingenious, right? Lifting the wheel? Like picking up your morning coffee, easy peasy.
Bearings: My Personal Soundtrack 🎶
Now, these guys started playing the noise game at 300kms, but I threw a little party and replaced them. Hit me with some noise again at 1500kms, but heck, I'm treating it like a built-in AVAS – my own personal soundtrack. Props to InMotion for tossing in a free motor replacement; now I'm sitting on a spare like a poker champ.
Kickstand: The Unsung Cha-Cha Hero 💃
It's the unsung hero. Pops up and down like it's doing the cha-cha, and I never have to lay a finger on it. Makes parking the V11 as effortless as eating pizza.
Pedals: Cloud-Like Comfort and Sensitivity Buffet ☁️
Big, wide, and comfortable – it's like standing on clouds. The highest on the market, making tight turns a breeze. No obstacle too tough, no need to tiptoe. And let's talk about sensitivity options – a buffet of choices. Found this comfort mode with 0% sensitivity that's like having a magic carpet ride – smooth acceleration, hill climbing, and braking. Why isn't everyone shouting about this?
Speed: Surfing on Lightning ⚡
I'm not racing cars, but a cool 50-55 kmh in "go home mode" suits me just fine. This baby's got dynamic tiltback, so I'm not relying on beeps to keep me alive. Safety first, right? Cruising at 85 kmh? Piece of cake. The power? 4500W and 65A – makes you feel like you're surfing on lightning.
Range: Marathon Runner with a Thirst for Adventure 🏃♂️
It's a marathon runner. 90km at 25kmh, 33km at 41kmh – take your pick. Thanks to Seba, no more pit stops for "go home mode." The app says I've guzzled 64500wh, averaging 21.5wh/km. That's like sipping on energy drinks without the jitters.
Seat: Comfier Than Grandma's Couch with Nifty Tricks 🛋️
Comfier than your grandma's couch. Just needs some velcro love, and you're golden. Smart design, and it doesn't mess with carrying or trolleying. Seated tricks? You bet, thanks to that nifty 0% sensitivity magic.
Structure: Tank-Like Build with Ergonomic Excellence 🛡️
Built like a tank. Broke the lower shell ramming it into a curb, but there are layers protecting the goods. Ergonomics? Top-notch. Mudguard needs a little DIY extension for the wild ones out there.
Charging: Sleek Charger, Faster Than a Caffeine Shot ☕
Charger's sleek, charges faster than a caffeine shot, and doesn't beep like your microwave. Thank the unicycle gods for that!
That's the lowdown on the V11, folks. Hope it tickled your curiosity a bit. Keep riding, and welcome to the Ride Often Club! 🚀
