Inmotion V14 / V13: Everything You Need to Know

Two electric unicycles, not a bike. Inmotion’s V14 card is $2,699, 50 mph, 2,400Wh, and 9,000W peak. A Canada V13 card is about 56 mph, 3,024Wh, and 10,000W peak, and it also prints a 140 km/h lift speed.

The short answer

These are two electric unicycles, not a bicycle trim. Inmotion’s V14 page is $2,699, cut from $2,899. The block lists 4,000 W rated, a 9,000 W peak, 2,400 Wh, 86 lb, and a 12-by-3 tire. SmartWheel’s V13 copy lists 4,500 W continuous, a 10,000 W peak, about 200 km, and a 22-by-3 tire. Do not treat a 140 km/h lift figure as the ride cap.

Inmotion’s V14 and V13 are electric unicycles, not bicycles and not kick scooters. Inmotion’s V14 Adventure card prints $2,699, down from $2,899, a top speed of 50 mph, a 2,400 Wh pack, a 4 kW continuous rating, a 9 kW peak, 276 Nm, 74.5 miles in the spec block, and 86 lb. A hero line on that page says 75 miles. SmartWheel’s Canada V13 card prints a ride cap near 90 km/h (55.9 mph), a 3,024 Wh pack at 126 volts, 4.5 kW continuous, a 10 kW peak, and a max range of about 200 km. The same card prints a “max lift speed” of 140 km/h. The list’s “$2,000+” is a floor, not a model. The row on this desk’s list links here.

Stand-ins. The shorter wheel is not automatically the V14, and the taller one is not automatically the V13.

The V14 card, and the V13 card

Inmotion’s own V14 page versus SmartWheel Canada’s V13. An older comparison table still lists the V14 at 70 km/h, 2,277 Wh, and 40 kg, and the V13 at 90 km/h with a 4,500 W cell and no peak. Those are stale next to the pages below. The [Pint X / GT](/articles/onewheel-pint-x-gt) is a different one-wheel product.

Fifty miles an hour and about 56 are two wheels. One hundred forty kilometers an hour on the V13 card is labeled lift speed, not the 90 km/h ride cap. Do not shop 87 mph as the V13’s cruising number. Seventy-four point five miles and 75 miles are the V14 talking to itself. Two hundred kilometers is the V13 claim. Two thousand four hundred watt-hours and 3,024 watt-hours are not a trim. A 12-by-3 tire on the V14 spec block will surprise anyone who remembers a 16-inch adventure ad. Use the block. Full-face helmet territory is the list’s warning, and it is the right category warning: these are not bike-lane machines. A fall at the printed speeds is a motorcycle crash without the motorcycle paperwork.

The slash in the list is two wheels. Fifty miles an hour is the V14’s new cap. The V13’s 140 km/h line is a lift figure sitting under a 90 km/h cap.
MiniWheel Media, 3 January 2024. A V14 only. The current Inmotion card says the cap was later raised from 43.5 mph to 50. This upload predates that sentence.

Who it is for

Buy a V14 if you want Inmotion’s $2,699 card and you already know how to ride a wheel. Buy a V13 only if the 126-volt, 3,024 Wh card is the one in the box, and you will not quote the lift speed as the ride speed. Neither is a bicycle. Both fail the class chart. The watt-hour page is why 2,400 and 3,024 are the numbers that matter more than a marketing mile.

Questions people ask

What changed in the V14 copy?+

The maker says the cap and the torque were raised. Hill grade on that page is 50 degrees. Charge copy is 7 hours, or 1 hour on 16 A chargers. IP rating in the block is IPX6.

How should the V13 speed be quoted?+

About 90 km/h, which the Canada card also writes as 55.9 mph. The 140 km/h number is labeled max lift speed. An older table’s 35-degree climb is not this card’s 45 degrees.

Are 2,400 and 3,024 the same pack?+

No. Different wheels. A stale comparison still shows 2,277 Wh on a V14. The current Inmotion block says 2,400. Use the block.

Why does the tire look wrong?+

Memory says a big adventure tire. Inmotion’s block says 12 by 3 inches. The V13 card says 22 by 3. Read the line that matches the invoice.

Keep riding
