I had a short timeline of when I needed the part delivere by and B-one board was really good about connecting with me and checking to make sure the part would arrive in time and that it was the exact part to fit my board. They asked questions and made suggestions on which part. They even told me when I ordered an extra part I didnt need and then refunded me. The direct drive motor arrived in time and is now powering my board beautifully. Its smooth, fast and has great torque.
Great board
The board is powerful, getting up to and over 50kph without difficulty and the battery lasts for about as long as you'd think it would, which is nice. The pneumatic tyres it came with however have all blown out on me over the course of 200km or so of travel, which is pretty annoying.
This board is awesome! I say this as a guy that is used to only belt drive boards. This board has a lot of power but it is well tuned and tamed. This board really shines on hi and pro mode. I weigh 230 lbs and this board gets me up to 30mph. Due to the flexy deck the ride is very comfortable and carves well. I haven’t even come close to draining the battery. This board is like the Tynee explorer’s little brother. Overall I’m very happy with this board.
I have them on for two months and even if the road is wet, mud guards keep me safe from all the dirt and water on the ground. Wihout them, i got covered with filthy water drops all the way up to my neck.
That being said, they have a very DIY feel and looks to them. Rear ones are great, the front ones seem to be more of a mess. They hardly stay on their place, they start really low at the wheel which maskes them very exposed to anything you drive over (rock, curb...). I broke one when trying to get the board on a curb. It is 3D printetd, so it's fairly brittle.
Design wise, they look cool until you see the forn ones have to be zip-tied to stay in place; it works but needs constant tinkering to keep it straight.
I'd appreciate if they would have an easier attach-release system to put them on/off with no tools (now skate tools are needed).
