Had the board for about a week now . Done some light testing (about 30 miles ridden), no long range stuff yet, some pretty steep hills. Both my sister (~110lbs) and I (~240lbs) have ridden it on smooth, rough and hilly roads. Some quick points before I post a more full review after more testing.
*The wheels are above average, not as squishy as aftermarket ones of course. *The deck flex is minimal so rough roads get the feet tingling, I personally don't mind, neither does my sister. *single kingpin trucks are fine, i prefer double kingpin *Acceleration and break curves are AMAZING, so smooth, even at high and medium setting *It's fast, not as fast as my bamboo GTX for me, but for my sister is very fast, don't know top speed though. *At near 100% battery it climbs hills (even with me) easy. Tried it on about a 20%-25% grade, took it easy at about ~5-6mph, maybe faster, I think that's more than adequate since that is the steepest hill around. *it is very very quiet, nearly silent on smooth roads. *the remote is very basic, pistol grip with thumb operated accelerator/break. 0/10/60/100% Battery indicator could be better. *Grip tape is too smooth for my liking, my sister likes it. *Price on Massdrop was $100 cheaper than amazon, well worth it (SO FAR).
My only complaint so far is that the wrist band on the remote came off almost instantly. It didn't break, I think it simply wasn't attached and was only stuck in the hole before shipping. I wouldn't blame them though, thing is f***ing impossible to get back in, had to jimmy it with a piece of wire then attach the wristband to that.
The lights in the back I can see are on but I have only ridden this during the day so no testing on them yet, nor I do I really think I want to night ride. A little too dangerous in my area.
I haven't contacted customer support yet, manual is a translated English manual, and the packaging was adequate (soft foam).
