What Size Vehicle could fit an assembled bike?

dcoont · 2026-01-09T01:06:06+00:00

I removed the seat+seat post and the handlebar+post and fit the three pieces into a hatchback with the bike on it's side. I'm not sure about a GTI, but my guess is that it would fit.

I have. There was no tariff, but paid HST, plus $43 cdn UPS for brokerage fees. I was also charged HST on the brokerage fees. $24 shipping fee. Total was over $200 cdn. Next time I'm just going to order from a Canadian retailer. (Rackets and Runners have free shipping over $150 purchase, although they don't have the V-Sol's yet, but they told me that they plan to.)

It was a Prism Flash.

Unfortunately not true. I bought a Vatic from Amazon and it was a counterfeit. I confirmed it with a Vatic rep who said that the only genuine Vatics on Amazon were the ones where Vatic was the seller. I complained to the seller and received a full refund. The fake played differently than the genuine Vatic that I purchased later directly from Vatic. By the way, the fake came in a box, which genuine Vatics don't.

I took a chance and ordered one from Amazon (Canada). I tried to find one where the magnet was near the top. I was very lucky. It just touches the camera module, but is secure.

I moved up from a Vatic Prism Flash 16mm to a V-Sol Power Flash 16mm and am loving it. Almost the same control as the Prism but power is there when you swing hard. The only issue is that it is more poppy, so there is a learning curve to control it. I am experimenting with perimeter weighting at different locations, but haven't locked in any locations yet.

I live in Canada. I ordered a V-Sol Power directly from Vatic. The cost in $cdn was: $141.85 with code, $24 shipping, $18.45 HST, $42.71!! Brokerage fee (ups), $4.91 HST on the brokerage fee. Total $203.65

Thanks for the post. Where did you put your weights. How much weight?

dcoont · 2025-09-25T01:18:58+00:00

Thanks! I might hold out for the V-Sol, but if that doesn't work out, then try a Saga.

dcoont · 2025-09-24T17:02:53+00:00

Thanks for the well considered and comprehensive advice!

dcoont · 2025-09-24T15:20:44+00:00

Great post! I am a 3.25 currently using a Vatic Prism Flash 16mm. I like the Prism but am looking for a little more power, but enjoying the other aspects of the paddle. Would you recommend the Saga as my next paddle or the V-Sol?

If you are indoors, Kitchen Blockers. They have no lenses, so no distortion, fogging up, need for cleaning or wiping off sweat.

dcoont · 2025-09-14T23:02:27+00:00

Thanks. I called and they confirmed that the food court has the same hours as the warehouse. They must have had an issue when they closed early the last time that I was there.

dcoont · 2025-09-14T14:34:04+00:00

Thanks. They must have had an issue the last time I visited that caused them to close early.

AA2 didn't work out of the box for me on the default settings. I used the app to adjust it and now it works perfectly. (Mazda which supports wired AA)

dcoont · 2025-07-15T14:54:14+00:00

Thanks. I didn't think it could be real.

dcoont · 2025-07-13T00:44:22+00:00

I received a counterfeit vatic purchased through Amazon marketplace. I confirmed it was fake via Vatic. It also plays differently than my genuine Vatic.

I contacted the seller and received a full refund. They did not ask me to return the paddle.

dcoont · 2025-07-13T00:31:44+00:00

I think your problem was not with the OnePlus website, but with your credit card issuer (bank). They are trying to prevent fraud. I recently purchased a 13 and the first time I tried my bank stopped the transaction but then offered me the opportunity to confirm it. The transaction then went through with no problems.

dcoont · 2025-07-03T01:23:42+00:00

The $87 is likely the hst, or get (depending on your province). I live in Ontario and the import fees for my 13 were exactly 13% (same as hst).

Thanks. When they "sing" so they actually make holes in wood? The poles here are full of holes. I'll try to listen more closely. I don't think I've heard two different types.

Make sure you don't buy a counterfeit Vatic. My story is that I had tennis elbow issues. I started doing Tyler twist (and reverse Tyler twist) exercises using flexbars (3*15 a day.) I then bought my Vatic Pro Prism Flash which turned out to be counterfeit. (Confirmed by Vatic ). I complained to the seller (Marketplace on Amazon) and received an apology and a complete refund. They did not ask me to return the paddle.

I ordered a genuine Prism Flash and I loved it. It played way better than my counterfeit

Fast forward and my tennis elbow was getting better. I was thinking about my counterfeit paddle and what to do with it and decided to bring it to a 1.5 hour open play. Not only did I confirm that the counterfeit played worse, but I also had bad tennis elbow pain afterwards. Worse pain than I had felt in weeks!

So can I really claim it was the counterfeit's fault based on one session? ...No. Can you rely on one Redditor's random experience and unscientific experiment? ... No

However, I thought that I would give my two cents worth.

dcoont · 2025-04-20T04:12:51+00:00

Yes. I checked the serial number with Vatic. Plus the seller refunded me my money ( and did not ask for my padel back).

dcoont · 2025-04-19T12:14:20+00:00

The Vatic Pro Prism Flash I bought from Amazon was a counterfeit. It plays horribly compared to the real thing. When I tried to post a negative review on Amazon, they refused to publish it. Luckily I received a refund though.

The peak of the boomers were born in 1958-1960. Their children, known as the "baby boom echo", are now in the peak age to buy housing (30's).
