Board has just the right amount of flex for fun carving. Range and speed are both great, as advertised. I love how quiet the direct drives are compared to belts. I've put about 100miles on it so far, no issues
Using this as a replacement for my lycaon swift.
It has a „progressive“ (exponential) control characteristic, which makes it much easier to accelerate and brake (although i would like to tweak that a little more). And it has adjustable breaking power. Both of which my original did not have and both are big improvements. Unfortunately the fastest „gear“ setting is gone now, which i sort of miss, but then it was a little too fast for safety perhaps..
Using settings for swift hub motors: 11poles, 65% breaking power
My previous review was negative due to my cloud wheels being shipped separately, I thought they were forgotten; so ignore that.
The Balrog X Out-performs its price by a long shot. It also comes fully assembled, I literally took it out of the box, plopped it on the street and took it up the road within minutes of delivery
