V13 Final Thoughts With Dawn Champion 

im torn between the v13 and the sherman s, can i ask why you went for the v13?

@@lunchymunchy2984 overall well-rounded quality on v13... Easier maintenance...All weather condition wheel not getting it for jumping just overall reliability at some point in the future I will wait for the close to perfect long-range wheel. But range is not my forte 56 miles of fun before I charge is All I'll need. I also like the weight and the high skinny aspects great for stability. And a lot of other things. 😎

They are challenging initially but if you build your skills it will be very similar to your motorcycle experience, mine is similar to yours and you should not crash on these things either. Like many other products don't buy revision a. 😂

Yeah, for you, I wouldn't do any jumps 😆

Yup

4500 is not "competitive" Lmao

Now is only $3700 😅 I really hope they do a special price for holidays 🙏 I'll buy it if is under $3500 but also I'm really interested in the Comander GT

LOL

In practice (people have done it) modular batteries aren't practical. Batteries are *heavy* and not pleasant to carry around on your back. Better to get a wheel that has big enough batteries inside. Seated riding is not possible without a special seat which is not available.

@@ElectricUnicycles - I guess the next best option will be lighter battery technology ... so we wait - wonder if that V11 seat will mount over that v13 handle? .... third party will figure out a seated option no doubt ... can't image not being able to do seated riding on that wheel somehow - thanks again Marty.

@@kirbyscovers inmotion does make a seat for the V13. Ewheels will have some in stock later this month.

@@jonkelly935 very cool - thanks Jon

I only care about max speed because of the increased safety margin that it provides. I'd love to own an EUC that can go 150-kph for that reason. I think the main selling point of the V13 is not speed but safely and quality.

Those wheels offer much more range. Generally, the battery size has been the main driver for wheel cost. But in the case of the V13, its battery is smaller.

Not really because there can *never* be a perfect wheel. For instance, the V13 has quality and speed, but not range. And it's serviceable for trails but not the best.

Agree with Marty. This is a great solo wheel if you want waterproof, low/mid range, safety, quality, smooth/stable ride. Sport Touring wheel. It'll do decent on light trails. But it's not an extreme trail/jump wheel. And it's not a long distance wheel.

This is where a well like the S22 is a much better all arounder.

Honestly, the Commander Pro is closest to being an all rounder. Kills it on the trails, fast, long distance. Just needs some issues fixed first.

@Dawn Champion disagree it's too heavy

I have seen many V12s for sale in Southern California for 1200-1500 USD. Seen a couple v11s around 1 K. But not seen one used V 13 posted. Just wanted to make a point of reference that at least for me, the used market and resale value is relevant.

Dawn wears a lease. She has videos about it on her channel (see Description for link)

@@ElectricUnicycles yes thank you I spoken with her and watch the tethering video

Take a look at her channel and you'll find what you are looking for: Dawn Champion

Dawn was going between 40 and 50mph

Cool

In my opinion I think you Dawn and Roger make the best EUC videos.

I am really excited about the upcoming EB commander pro videos

@@makennacox5226 Thanks 🙂

LOL - yeah, drones aren't fast enough 🙂

You often don't meet people who love to spend a lot of money 🙂

Lmao. You just don't know how cheaply EUC are made. Trust me, they made over 100% profit. Hint: The prices of their last gens wheels are still very profitable. They just upped their game with making V13.

@@Hunter_Heart I'm sure EUCs are profitable. But at what point are you taking your data? From R&D to material cost inflation to zero economy of scale to salaries at all levels of the company and its subcontractors to insurance to government costs to licensure in every country they sell in, to wholesale discount price for dealers to allow them to profit... plus a thousand other hidden costs... EUCs at the level of quality of the V13 aren't exactly a money grab. Since you cant actually make 100% profit on a product, I assume you mean they sell it wholesale for more than twice their total cost? (Cost $1K, sell for $2k isn't 100% profit. It's 50%. You never get to 100%.) What do you think Inmotion sells it to dealers for, so they can mark it up themselves and stay in business? TLDR: I doubt anybody is getting rich making EUCs. Depending on your definition of "rich," of course.😁

​@@ElectricUnicycles You are correct. And they usually get what they pay for. "False economy" is what we learned to call it. It may seem like an economical choice to buy the cheaper thing, until it costs 2x as much to maintain or replace, or takes 50% more to make it as usable as the higher-cost, higher-quality thing in the first place. I'll take McMaster-Carr over Amazon any day of the week. Thanks for what you do!

@@caliman99 Then you don't know China manufacturing capacities and their labor costs. All parts are literally sourced locally, as in mass produce (dirt cheap). Yesterday sweatshop companies are today EUC manufacturer. What you are thinking is Western startups...Its wild wild west over there as in term of making anything that could bring in a profit. R&D? lol This is how it goes, CNC the parts then let employees (none pro, mostly just gentle riders) ride the wheel couple of times, if nothing breaks then sent it to distributors for beta testers. Mass produce or/maybe fix it on another batch. Thats why you see uneven wires and a hot mess in the motherboard. Its now that V13 step up their game. At the end of the day, EUC are made from a few parts. Material and inflation? lol When you control all the way to the minerals, you control everything. China is a manufator of the world for decades now. Saleries? lol like the army of iPhone factory workers have salaries?! Start watching China manufacturing documentaries.

And at the 6 minute mark, she told you everything you need to know

Give or take a few seconds

The original (first) Sherman was a ground breaking EUC which had profound affects on the EUC world and therefore OG is often used when referring to it.

@ElectricUnicycles That explains the reverence that's associated with the original/OG. It looks like it is discontinued, was it replaced by the "S" model as its successor? Do you recall the month year when the OG was first available on the market? Loving your content!

Master Pro

Look in the description of my recent videos about either the A2 or the Commander Mini

@ElectricUnicycles Thank you Marty I appreciate the help. Hope you heal up quickly so u can get back to it.

Those were 2015 prices :-)

Yes

Yup, all companies want to eat the biggest piece of the profit pie until the wheel flop and then they rethink their strategy. Dawn said Inmotion might have gone emo and wanting to make wheels like Begode. lol

you don't even know what you are talking about lmao. ARM, qualcomm, TSMC, and samsung makes the SOCs not apple. apple cannot fab their own chips, and apple takes credit for most of the work other people do

on top of that, snapdragon literally beats apple chips in benchmarks lmao

@@Blox117 1. I did not say Apple makes SOC. I say Apple has the most powerful mobile SOC. 2. Just like there are people think that V13 is more powerful than the Master and Master Pro, there are also people that think the Snapdragons are more powerful than the A Bionics.

@@sharkyclear apple doesnt have the most powerful mobile soc except for their laptop chips. the v13 is literally more powerful than the master but is software limited just like many actual CPUs. snapdragon is literally more powerful than apple in benchmarks.

@@Blox117 fanboy/hater spotted

Scorpion AT950

LOL

Oops. I just remembered that I got your e-mail. I'll send you the link now :-)

@@ElectricUnicycles Thank God you’re real not a bot 🤓Thanks Marty!

That's a great price for this wheel

No 😄

Haven't really had problems with ours 🤔

Sorry to hear you don't have a good job.

that's what your small peter johnson is for

We all ride with lots of equipment and have the best times of our lives riding EUC's. Yeah, if your objective is to go from point A to B then get a motorcycle.

You clearly don't know what you're talking about. 😂. You should try riding one of these before you make such naïve commentary.

Thanks for your limited and extremely narrow minded verdict. We'll pass.

You people already petrified Inmotion of the name "Challenger". lmao
