I really enjoyed this. I'm glad even big guys can enjoy the V12!
Hey, Jimmy! Glad you liked it. Thanks for stopping by. 🙂
You should do a range test. That would be helpful to commuters who are mostly likely looking into the V12.
What a great review! Last time I saw your videos the production quality has gone up isanely! Keep it up :)
I have Tesla T3 and Inmotion V8F. I really like Inmotion quality and speed and power of my T3. V12 seems like the best from both worlds. And most importanly V12 has standard motor, not hollow. It has IP 55 and no fan. Only giant heat sink at the top. Batteries are sealed even better. Seems like wheel with very long lifespan. I really like it.
Absolutely. Dang, I forgot to mention the waterproof rating!
cry, grit teeth, Delete, reedit, upload,
@@gritred5500 I've tried that. The algorithm detects it and won't promote the re-upload through impressions!
Good review! I hope you get the Abrams and S20 to test
God me too, that would be a dream.
I just started ridding the v8f and already looking forward to getting either this or a v11 as my next upgrade. I live in rainy city so the ipx rating for inmotion is a must for me
I've got a V11 and it's a great cruising wheel, the headlight is amazing and the confort is amazing, but it's a very boring wheel, it's fast but not very torquy.. but so good to go long runs, going to work every day.
I'll buy a V12 when i can, to have a cruising and a fun wheel
not recommend v11. as suspension is realy not sturdy and reliable
Great review! As a Nik+ owner I don't really need the v12 but have to admit that it's a great looking wheel, I'm short and enjoy a 16" wheel. Impressive riding btw!
The owner of this wheel has the new Nik from AR with 2700wh battery and is now selling it in favor of the v12. 🙃 they just got a firmware update that makes them much more responsive in braking, and are now compatible with EUC world!
First time I see one of your videos. Suscribed !
Finaly a wheel driver nearly as big as me. Others tend to be much smaller.
And we can see it, the V12 seems much smaller between your feet compared to other users on youtube !
I'm nearly at 6'2'' and above 210 pounds. seeing you using the wheel may push me toward something bigger...
Good video btw, thanks !
Yup, we're the same size. Everyone else reviewing wheels weighs 150lbs. 🤷♂️ looks like we'll be getting the s20, Commander, hero, and Abrams for testing, too! Going to be a fun Winter.
@@GingerOnWheels
I was seriously about to order a V12.
When I saw your feet with the V12, I indeed realized all the other youtubers reviewing it must be 150 lbs or less, that's for sure.
I have a V10 for a light daily commuter (it's not light for others, but for us, it's light for sure !). But for next wheel, I'll go for a minimum of 18 inches of diameter for a wheel, if not more.
Thank you for that !
For the new wheels, the one that seems to be the most interesting is the Commander. Will you have the chance to have one for testing ?
Cheers from Quebec, Canada !
@@yanickgenest1324 you can always upgrade the pedals on the v12! I've done it on my Rs and Shermanator. But yes, it does look like I'll be getting the Commander.
@@GingerOnWheels
Just for fun :
For a long while, I hesitated between a RS High Speed, and a V12. (same battery, same top speed)
As I mentionned above, I was about to order a V12.
Now I'm hesitating again.
Between those 2, which one would you recommend ?
Or maybe I should wait a bit more for the new wheels...
I have the V8 w/16” and it’s been great But I want something with a 18” wheel and more range, more speed isn’t a need for me,I’m 74 and slowly but sure is ok.+suspension?
yes, im missing too 18x3 wheel without suspension.. Begode does not count
I’ve seen several people mention poor / lackluster braking performance. Thoughts? Feels important for a fast wheel.
Fimware has been updated now to improve braking. It's totally fine. I watched a rider chirp the tire braking on the new firmware it was so responsive.
Without pad it is acceptable. With pads, it is a really good braking actually.
one question: my gotway nikola plus runs also 70km/h but has a 17 inch wheel. so the question is, does it makes a difference between 16 and 17 inch by driving at full speed?
One thing i noticed with my android phone and bluetooth is sometimes connection of some bluetooth devices fail. I end up having to restart the phone, i think it has something to do with a bluetooth service in my version of android in combination with the chip used.
Hi nice vid!! Would you say that having a suspension like the V12 is now moving forward a required feature to be more adaptable to unanticipated bumps and dips on paved road?
Suspension isn't required at all. It definitely makes the ride much more comfortable and can help handle unforseen potholes, but I regularly ride my Sherman around at 40+ and hit bumps all time. 🤷♂️
Driving a wheel with suspension provides better safety cause it corrects road anomalies and you don’t have to scan the road all the time.
Also it helps avoiding ride pain from holes that will shake you and your knees or your waist will absorb the hit,Suspension gets the absorb.
It’s a total different experience you should drive a wheel with suspension and a wheel without to see the difference for your self.
Great review! Very thorough and always great seeing your point of view.
Thanks for the support, my man!
I agree. Just a down to earth review, not pumping it because of your affiliate link! Considering this for my 2nd wheel but the S20 is looking really nice, albeit $1000 more.
Great Video, well done and thanks. I like that every third word you use isn’t “man” like so videos.
Some videos
I'm excited for this one love this guy
Nice review. Is the rear light noticeable by traffic? What's the realistic range for someone of your build? Have the issues with cut outs been fixed? do the wheel bearings last or do they degrade in the rain?
I have a quick question about the inmotion v12. I've had v12 for a week, an for some reason my charger stop working. I've only charger my euc 3 time for an hour since I've had it.
In another video show me how to stop on that wheel
What's your preference for pedal height on this one ? I use the highest settings as I've heard that they are somehow more stable (which didn't make sense to me intially) and I can't make up my mind between the two.
Well, everyone will have their own preference obviously, so I encourage you to try them all. I personally liked taller pedal height. It's a small maneuverable wheel , but you can't maneuver anywhere if your pedals scrape when you turn. The lower pedals do make higher speed riding feel easier though.
How does the V12 compared to the sherman?
Canceled my v12 pre order for s20 😁
Ginger, can you do a video on the Apollo Ghost? I would like to know your thoughts.
Did you encounter any cutout? The wheel is plenty for me, but I’m concerned about the cutout
So I'm seeing a lot of follow up reviews about cutouts and loose pedal hangers on the latest models. Is it safe or should I wait until they come out with more updates and fixes?
Would you review the huffy zx3 electric scooter on Amazon please
Does it work if you don’t connect your phone?
Would you still prefer the rs 19 over the v12?
Dear Ginger. Talking about the Max G30 (D) 2, I am looking for some offroad (honeycore) tires. I don't need that much of comfort, so I can pass on the tubeless ones. Do you have any suggestions? Another thing is to change from the 36V to 48V, but I don't wanna solder and stuff...is there already a plug&play solution on the market?
No idea for the tires. Search the channel. I did a video series on the battery upgrade.
do you recommend it for a beginner? I wanted the Sherman S, but everywhere I look , they're sayin "NO"
Yeah this wouldn't be bad for a beginner. It's a bit top heavy but it's also not a beginner wheel. You'll grow into it and be able to ride it for a while before you need to upgrade. For what it's worth I know a guy who had a Sherman as his first wheel. 🤷🏼 it can be done. It's just a lot easier to get discouraged while learning because you're intentionally increasing your learning curve the bigger the wheel you get.
What pedal should I get for size 13 shoes?
I don’t see the point of having these connect to an app on your phone whatsoever. I just want to be able to turn it on and ride it. Also the speakers Are pointlessI’ll never use them. Very informative review thanks for posting this
Hey I was watching one of ur vids and thought "hm, that looks a lot like where I live" and saw a lady on a trail that I recognized. Then saw in one of your videos that you were in Seattle, which confirmed it! I just got an Apollo Ghost and was wondering if you maybe want to meet up somewhere and try it out? Lemme know, I figure the comments aren't the best place to chat but idk how else to contact you through youtube :/
Awesome 😎 thanks bud 🙏
May you do the full review of the heybike mars? Thank you!!!
What would you like to know about it?
Do you get free electric things by making an unboxing and review???
Love it.
Parabéns parabéns gostei manda uma para mim de presente 🎁 abrigado que assim seja pai altíssimo supremo Y A O H O U só este nome salva Y A O H O U
Great review!
Thank you!
Hi, I'm just starting out and have been learning on a friends 16X - I'll buy a wheel and the V12 HT is at the top of my List - Any other wheel you'd consider?
I've heard the HT has as much torque as the speed model, except it's slower. I'd wait for the v13 🤤
@@GingerOnWheels Knew you'd say that...haha, I was considering a Sherman MAX - I know, a totally different wheels, but fairly proven in many aspects..... And great review as always
@@timpriestley8997 I have 2200 miles on my Sherman max. I'm frothing at the mouth for the Sherman-S. That will be the next wheel that I buy with my own money.
@@GingerOnWheels yes, I figured waiting for the S and just getting something like the V12 HT now.. then get the S when I know it's been proven without to many issues.
You used an adblocker on the phone?
Is it worth waiting for the HT version or just V12 is gd???
Hey Ginger, do you recommend this wheel over a Zero 11x? I bought the scooter, and now I am looking at wheels.... but I am not going offroad...
Thats a tough choice. Scooters and wheels are very different machines. I personally would get something like veteran sherman or extremebull commander over a zero 11x but there is a steep learning curve to EUCs. If you're going to ride every now and again a scooter might be more fun. If you want to ride every day and put in the work to get good at a new thing then opt for EUC. Injuries / crashes tend to be worse on EUC because most of the time you literally just faceplant.
@@GingerOnWheels Thank you very much, this helps a lot. I better stick to scooters then. I don't want to faceplant honestly, and I am already 40 years old with two kids, so scooters is the way then.
Nice Review bud!
Thanks dude!
Awesome video! Your RS, is it the HT or HS? If you only would buy one wheel. Whould you buy the V12 or the RS?
Absolutely RS for me anyday. This thing can't come close to the torque on the RS. I'm a large dude and ride on steep stuff so more torque the better. I got the Molicel battery pack In there too, 4x the output of regular batteries. I literally can't overpower the wheel lol.
@@GingerOnWheels I see :) I have the rs ht on order :) What range did you get on the rs with the stock batteries?
Great Video.
Sick intro!
Glad you liked it 🙂
I was debating between this and the rs, any opinion since you own the rs?
Its not competition for me. RS if you're offroad, v12 on road. The RS has an unfathomable amount of torque, you can't really take advantage of that on pavement as much. The v12 is much more comfortable and smooth feeling. You'll get more range out of a v12 than an rs because it isn't surging the amps every time you accelerate to create massive torque.
Offroading on an RS with a knobby tire is a whole new EUC experience, but if you're not planning on going hard offroad then I think the v12 is a much more practical choice.
@@GingerOnWheels i take it you have the rs t, thanks for the info!
@@thendless yessir. Rs hs seems outdated now with options like the exn
Dude so I commented a few days about you living next to me. There was a guy on 164th off of I-5 on one of these a month ago heading tword bothell in the pouring down rain lol. Are these sketchy in the rain??
Join our telegram group. Chances are it was one of the loonies in here. We ride almost every day.

@@GingerOnWheels no fkn way. I am so down 😂😂
@@GingerOnWheels if you ride motorcycles or anything let me know. We ride all year round!
You live in the Washington area? I could have sworn I recognized a couple of places.
You got it!
@@GingerOnWheels yessssss.
Do you have a good place to take your ev unicycles in for repairs? Can't find any local.
@@stevemiller123 my living room 😁
I live in Fayetteville NC. There's like 4 guys who have an EUC here. Raleigh has a whole community. I'm really lightweight. Like 135. I'm getting a v12ht and v12. I wanted the rs 19 1st which I'd love to get later.
Pretty cool
Anything about kingsongs??
Yes?
at 150lbs and 5'6", this might just be my goldilocks wheel.
It definitely would be an excellent all around wheel for you.
You have way to less air in it :-) but good video ;-)
I had the psi low to compensate for the off-center tire. With the psi higher the wheel was bouncing like crazy and vibrated at high speed.
@@GingerOnWheels ah ok... thanks for explaining 🥰🥰🥰
The biggest drawback is the thin axle. This is a wheel for light riders. A hollow motor or a thicker axle could solve the problem.
Idk... I'm 210lbs and mashed it pretty hard offroad. Maybe with some jumps or stairs you could bend it up, but not without a bit of effort.
@@GingerOnWheels I'm 265 lbs.
Does this wheel have a taillight?
There are two strings of LEDs down the rear left and right that light up red when you brake.
@@GingerOnWheels I had pre ordered the Gotway Tesla V3 but now I kind of want to switch to the V12. Do you think that's a good choice? The V12 is $600 more than what I paid for Tesla V3.
So RS or V12?
Depends on what kind of rider you are. Rs is a lot more 'extreme', less emphasis on features and more on power delivery.
but Dude, you are 5meters high xD
It just go 43 ph is like king song 16 x very slow wheel
I wont lie, im,not a fan of one wheels as it feels like we are just going back in time and adding motors to unicycles and it cant be comfortable for that long, I hate the look of them also.
Called euc, onewheels are a different thing. Got a 16x a few months ago myself, once I learned it and got my muscles built up i can't get enough of it.
noel leonard Same after getting an Inmotion V11. Hard to beat as far as low watts per mile. Cheaper to maintain than an ebike in my experience. 🙏🏼
