Inmotion V11Y Electric Unicycle: A Leap Forward from V11
InMotion has once again broken its own boundaries with the release of the V11Y, an optimized version of the revolutionary V11. Building on a legacy of firsts, this new model introduces remarkable advancements that make it stand out in the world of electric unicycles.
Height: The V11Y stands 40MM taller than its predecessor, the V11. This increased stature not only gives riders a more commanding presence but also enhances the overall ride quality.
Gas Spring: The gas spring height has been augmented by an additional 10MM, ensuring that riders get a smoother, more cushioned ride.
Pedal Adjustments: Taking feedback into account, the pedal height has been dropped by 10MM. In addition, the previous frosted pedals have been replaced with sturdier and sleeker aluminum alloy pedals, akin to those on the V13 model.
Protective Features: To add an extra layer of safety, the V11Y now sports front and rear bottom shells, accompanied by a total of six vibrant orange rubber protective shells. This not only makes the unicycle visually striking but also enhances its resilience against wear and tear.
Kickstand: Reflecting the design continuity, the V11Y now uses the same reliable kickstand found on the V13s.
Ride Experience Post-Optimization: The center of gravity on the V11Y has been thoughtfully lowered.
What does this mean for riders?
Enhanced Control: The lower gravity offers a tighter grip on terrains, making maneuverability easier.
Reduced Bottoming Out: The tweaks in design decrease the likelihood of the base hitting the ground on bumpy rides.
Stability: With the newly introduced kickstand from the V13s and the structural changes, the V11Y stands more firmly when not in use.
Shell Protection: The added protective shells ensure that the unicycle remains unscathed from minor bumps and collisions.
Pedal Comfort: The transition to aluminum alloy pedals grants riders a more comfortable footrest, perfect for long rides. The Inmotion V11Y isn’t just an electric unicycle; it’s a testament to InMotion's commitment to innovation, reflecting the brand's continuous endeavor to refine and redefine the EUC experience.

Frequently asked questions
How fast does the Inmotion V11Y go?
60 km/h free-spin. Real-world cruising speed sits between 45 and 50 km/h before the wheel tilts back to warn you. The 18-inch tire gives a stable feel at speed that smaller wheels cannot match.
What is the real range of the V11Y?
The 1500 Wh pack is rated for 130 km. Plan on 75 to 95 km real-world for a 75 kg rider at 30 to 35 km/h on flat mixed terrain. Full-throttle at 55 km/h drops it to around 50 km.
Does the V11Y have suspension?
Yes. It inherits the pneumatic suspension concept from the original V11 line, giving you travel to absorb curbs, cobbles, and rough urban pavement. It is one of the reasons the V11Y rides notably softer than rigid-frame wheels like the V8S.
Is the V11Y beginner-friendly?
Not as a first wheel. At 29.7 kg with an 18-inch tire and 60 km/h top speed, the V11Y demands muscle memory. If you come from a V5F or V8 series, the jump is manageable. From zero, budget 25 to 40 hours of practice before you feel confident above 30 km/h.
How long does a full charge take?
Around 8 hours with the stock charger. Many V11Y owners buy a second charger or a faster aftermarket unit to cut that roughly in half.
Can the V11Y handle steep hills?
Max gradient is rated 38°. In practice that means it climbs 15 to 20% hills without complaint at moderate rider weight. At 110+ kg on sustained steep climbs, you will feel the motor work and range drops fast.
How much weight can it carry?
120 kg rider weight limit. That is the published spec, not a hard cut-off; going above it accelerates wear and reduces acceleration and torque margin on hills.

Inmotion V11Y Electric Unicycle
Perfecto monosiclo
§ 01 / Philosophy
The V11Y, refined. 18" pneumatic-suspension touring wheel.
Long-range comfort wheel · Inmotion V11 lineage
§ battery
1500
Wh · 84 V
1500 Wh at 84 V. Sized for genuine touring distance — real-world 75–95 km is comfortable for daily commuting and weekend rides without recharging.
§ motor
2200
W · nominal
Inmotion positions the V11Y for sustained 30–35 km/h cruising rather than peak performance. The wheel is tuned for distance and comfort, not for high cruise speeds.
§ suspension
AIR
pneumatic · V11 lineage
Air-spring suspension is rare in the EUC market — most platforms use coil or oil-air shocks. The V11Y inherits the V11's distinctive pneumatic system, refined with a lower centre of gravity.
The long-range comfort wheel in Inmotion's range.
The V11Y is Inmotion's update of the V11 platform: an 18-inch wheel with pneumatic suspension, a 1500 Wh / 84 V pack and a 2200 W motor, packaged for long-distance commuting rather than performance riding. The pneumatic suspension is the headline — most EUCs in this class run coil or air-oil shocks; the V11Y inherits the V11's distinctive air-spring system.
The suspension is what defines this platform — the V11Y refines it with a lowered centre of gravity and the chassis updates owners had asked for.
18-inch hoop, soft pneumatic suspension and a battery built for distance rather than peak discharge. Aluminium-alloy pedals, front and rear protective shells, telescopic handle and an improved kickstand. The V11Y is positioned for the rider who values comfort and range over peak speed.
§ 02 / Systems
Four engineering choices that define the V11Y.
Factory data Inmotion V11Y · 1500 Wh · 84 V
01
1500 Wh · 84 V
Sized for distance: real-world 75–95 km for a 75 kg rider at 30–35 km/h cruise. Rated 130 km. Built for genuine touring rather than for peak discharge.
02
2200 W nominal motor
Inmotion positions the V11Y for sustained 30–35 km/h cruising rather than peak performance. Not a high-speed wheel — a long-range comfort wheel.
03
Pneumatic suspension
Air-spring suspension inherited from the V11 line — rare in the EUC market. Softer, more compliant ride at the cost of more careful tuning to the rider's weight.
04
18" wheel
Larger than the typical 16" urban EUC, smaller than a 20" touring wheel. The 18-inch hoop carries momentum well at cruise speed and stays manageable in the city.
§ 03 / EnergyCharging
84 V stock charger.
~8 h full charge
The V11Y ships with the 84 V stock charger. A full charge takes roughly 8 hours — sized for overnight recharge rather than fastest possible turnaround. The 1500 Wh / 84 V pack is built for distance, not for peak discharge demands.

§ 06 / Who rides it
The V11Y is built for long-distance riders who want pneumatic-suspension comfort over peak speed — not a high-performance wheel, not an off-road tire, not a first wheel.
A
The pneumatic-suspension commuter
Commuters who want the V11's distinctive pneumatic suspension feel with the V11Y refinements — lower centre of gravity, new pedals, improved kickstand.
B
The long-distance rider
Riders who value comfort over peak speed. 1500 Wh / 84 V sized for genuine distance, 75–95 km real-world — comfortable for daily commuting and weekend rides without recharging.
C
The 16" owner adding a second wheel
Owners who already have a 16" wheel and want a softer-riding companion. The 18-inch hoop with pneumatic suspension complements an urban 16" rather than replacing it.
×
New riders
Inmotion explicitly notes the V11Y is "not a first wheel" — it requires significant practice hours. Start on a more forgiving platform first.
×
Performance riders chasing high cruise speeds
The V11Y is not a high-speed wheel — Inmotion positions it for sustained 30–35 km/h cruising. For higher cruise speeds, look at the V12S or another performance platform.
×
Off-road riders
The V11Y is street-tuned. It is not the right choice for moto-tire off-road riding — look at a dedicated off-road platform if that is the use case.
~60 km/h Manufacturer-stated free-spin figure for private land. Cruising performance is closer to 50–55 km/h. Not a target speed for daily riding.

Q-01Pneumatic suspension — is that an issue?
It needs setup. Air pressure has to match rider weight and preference. We can advise on the right starting pressure before delivery so the wheel rides correctly from day one.
Q-02V11Y or V12S?
V11Y: 18" wheel, pneumatic suspension, 84 V, 130 km rated range, 2200 W. V12S: 16" / 3.00-12 wheel, hydraulic 90 mm suspension, 84 V max, 80–120 km range, 2500 W / 6000 W peak.
V11Y prioritises distance and comfort; V12S prioritises capability and connectivity.
Q-03Will it commute in rain?
No official IP rating from Inmotion. Treat the V11Y as light-rain-tolerant rather than wet-weather rated.
Q-04Is it a first wheel?
No. Inmotion explicitly notes the V11Y is "not a first wheel" — it requires significant practice hours. Start on a more forgiving platform and move to the V11Y once you have the basics down.
Q-05EU warranty?
Two years through OneRide with home pick-up service.
Free EU delivery
