I wanted to have an esk8, with great free-spin property, like a classical skateboard. Whisper quiet, only the wheel rolling noise audible. Long range, light weight, easy to transport / carry. Most od the available DD boards have a to small battery, around 600 Wh, so I needed a special solution.
With the conversion of my Titan -X, using the old DD kit, I got exactly, what I was looking for.
The DD motor connector fit, so no ESC change necessary. Hanger fit as well, respectively front as it is, and the back base plate can handle the new DD drive train, everything straight forward. Only a motor detection run is needed, to pair the DD motors to the original Titan X ESC. Some cable re-routing, new- softer bushings & bushing washers, and you are ready to go.
I first used rovers from cloud wheel, but the included DD multi adapter is to loose, for the wheel hole circle (ABEC). So I changed to KEGAL with MadWheelz, which works much better.
The rovers are nice, but the MadWheelz I love! What a ride, stable, grippy, the best street wheels for me. I guess my rovers are going to collect a lot of dust ;-) in the cellar.
Conclusion: I'm really happy with this purchase, but the rovers are not a great choice, go for the MadWheelz for a great street riding experience. As always B-ONE support was really helpful, to support my little project, thanks a lot for that!
Very happy with the purchase, fast delivery (5 days to Norway), good price, very good quality of all parts on the skateboard. If you are going to buy a skateboard I recommend buying it here. Regards Anders H
These are a great idea and would be great except electric skateboards are very heavy and unless you get it on the hook right it just doesn’t feel safe. I’m all for having things of the floor but I worry that with the weight it’s going to pull from the wall sorry !
A pretty disappointing skateboard. I don't know if I was unlucky or if other people have had problems with this product, but I've had problems since I opened the box, where inside I found two steel bars that scratched my board, dented the charger (which was sent back to me by the company, but unfortunately they couldn't do anything about the scratches on the board) and made all the accessories jump out of their slots. After the first month two corners of the grip popped off and I lost them, in the third month I had a problem with the remote control which ran out of battery in about a day and therefore made it impossible to use the skateboard for its entire autonomy. These days instead I'm having a problem with the skateboard's battery, which runs out after less than 25km and left me stranded twice. Not to mention the lack of attention to how badly the carbon figure was attached in the central part of the board, often raised around the screw holes or often curled and the rear light that swings and comes out of the plastic body because it was not even fixed with a screw. (if I push the rear cable, the light comes out in front!).
Also the carbon part has areas that are rougher than others and I don't think that's normal for these products. Let's say that the company does not pay much attention to the general quality of the product.
