We put the petal to the gravel and sent the GT, but does it hang with its predecessor, the Wonder Child, the XR?

I just want to say after watching tons of videos and doing research on the GT compared to the XR, I went out of my way to drive an hour to go get an XR at a shop that had a single 1 left. I was willing to drive up to 7 hours one way just to make sure that I can get an XR I called about 30 places 28 to be exact before I found a place that had one left. Would I buy a gt in the future when it's maybe a bit lighter and doesn't become a ghost death wheel. Also right to repair, what kind of Bs is it I have to pay 100 dollars to send in a GT and then pay another 100 for the tire on top of a 50 dollar shipping label? I understand they are worried about lawsuits but what fucking skateboard company that sells boards and trucks is worried about a law suit? Why can't it be the same? If you choose to ride you are acknowledging you could get hurt that is just life FM. Figure it out

Not super fast but close to maxed out for me on flat terrain at 180lbs. My GT comes tomorrow and I we be testing it on the pump track and terrain park were I live two miles away.

@TonyBlackgrave 2 жыл бұрын
Seems like for the average person the GT is gonna be the perfect board. Most people arent trying to push passed 20 and having more torque over speed is overall more useful. I dont see FM dialing back that push back at all since they have been trying to make Onewheels safer since the OG pint and since they legally cant advertise or sell a board with the clear ability to go passed 20 without it no longer being considered in a motorized board in California. If i had the money I'd totatly still buy a GT just for the torque and built in bigger battery but the XR is still perfectly fine for me.
@Skiptothebeat007 2 жыл бұрын
No future motion are just pussies ..... California allows electric skateboards on roads with a speed limit under 35 mph. You are allowed on public bicycle paths, highways, sidewalks, or bikeways but you can't go faster than 15 mph. It's important to note that riders are still required to adjust for changing conditions on the road, just like a motorist
