I'm feeling the same. A potentially great wheel hampered by poor communication. Even great new features or important fixes, they are keeping suppressed, which feels like suicide. I'm only finding out things through word of mouth or my retailer.

The cost of the v14 is $5400 up in Sydney,Australia. No communication from the company with support will stop people from spending a fortune on these wheels.

In a perfect world, the V14 would replace the stanchions with a hydraulic shock making this wheel dual-suspension with dual tuning zones for optimal on-road/off-road transitions. Stanchions are simply unserious design... better than KS's roller-sliders but both are still effectively features planned to become obsolescent. I'll keep buying (and fixing) used wheels until these companies get more serious about their long-term viability and repair-ability. My impression is that we'll see a quality VESC wheel before we see a quality 20-year lifespan EUC.

I have to agree on all this. I don't normally preorder anything, but I took a chance on the V14 because people told me inmotion support is good. I only got a few short rides before a hall sensor error put a stop to that. Dealing with support was ok at first, but when it came time to ship out a new motor communication collapsed. I'm not sure if it's on the way or not. It's a well designed wheel that's been let down by the factory and follow up service. I'm still hoping to muddle through the issues and get the wheel I want. About that stuttering issue, I get it pretty bad about the time when the hall sensor warning is flagged. It might be related. I wonder if the hall sensors haven't been positioned properly, or they shift over time.

Well said, bro. I appreciate your honesty. The initial batch wheels are exactly as you describe. On the next batches, the suspension works much better, no sticking, but the little occasional vibration in "S" mode is still there.

Yh when I had got my v14 I send it back cause they said it was the 50s but it wasn’t. So anyway yh it was vibrating like crazy too when it was just standing still. That right there will just fry your motherboard
