It's like longboarding or snowboarding over any terrain. you can carve big, turn sharp or just rip straight at an alarming rate. Useable anywhere... I wish I had a dealership now lol

the best part is anyone can ride it, no matter the size or age... e-bike fits a certain size and its tough to bring an e bike in the coffee shop to charge or under your desk...

I bought my pint used with 800Km on it for $1200 cash with a fender and charger. two years of fun so far.... well worth that.

I want an XR now goddamit

How many km have you put on it?

I got the app connected today. It says I got 8 km out of it yesterday on its first charge.

Prob got another 8 on it today Fawking around for an hour. Phone died at 5 km did a road lap after that board wasn’t dead yet. Lots of time and battery off road with steep climbs.

My 11 year did some sweet lines. Day 2 and he is pushing lines I’m eying! Gonna kick my ass fast!

Had a little speed wobble yesterday out on the road when pushing it. Any pointers? I fawked around with the digital shaping set points a bit. Tough to tell much difference so far on my terrain (grass mostly). Can notice the elevate setting. It will be nice for steep uphills. Crus felt pretty loose. Kinda like the stiffer settings when off off road as the board tips in and out of ruts.

How fast were you going? I had some as well on gravel but noticed my max speed was 34km/h. If you have an Apple Watch get the one wheel app on there, it shows your speed and battery in real time.

I Didn’t have the app connected yet. But clipping along pretty quick on pavement. Mostly noticed it the first day out on the roads. Maybe just need more time on it.

No gloves and holding a beer so didn’t push it too hard.

The speed wobble usually happens from fast acceleration and your body being tight, when you try to correct it at higher speeds it usually gets worse. Back off and try again, loosen up with a slight bend in your knees. A few beers will help with this also LOL.

11 km on it today! Boys took it out for a bit
before I got home in the yard. My 8 year old got it down pretty good today. They put on 5 km doing yard and trail laps.

I took took the dog for a walk. Best selfie I could get doing 15kmph, while walking the dog, and holding a beer6 km in about 1/2 hour.

Are your legs tired yet? Ha ha. My tire was low too and I added some air to the recommended 20psi. Feels like it rides a bit better now and uses less power. Total size of the 1W XR battery is 0.386 kWh. If you have 80% charging efficiency the cost to charge it is $0.0965. Less than a dime to rip for 10+ miles, not bad.
