you can use any deck with this system & we will also release the battery schematics so you can build custom packs!

Yes I understand, there are too much of a hassle now building all your self when you can offer all round - all complete - all suitable - great bargain board, thumbs up @onloop . You offer almost the perfect all rounder on budget that DIY’ers cant match. My next eboard I create will use Raptor base config (cheaper - all done deal).
For now I’m totally into finishing my eTrampa board.
One last question: when you say you will handle multiple shippings for group buys, does it mean that you could ship for example 2 packages from the EU warehouse and 3 from the US one?
YES, if there are 5 people, with five different addresses, they will all get sent the package from nearest warehouse.

They why not just sell them for 899? Seems like a lot of trouble for @onloop to do the group buy thing sending to different addresses .
This could get a few first sale buyers tits in a wringer, who just tried to buy them up front for the discounted price and couldn’t - then just settled for the higher price.
we cannot offer the $899 OR $999 price on its own again, that deal was limited and we can’t repeat for individual orders, however, some people wanted to buy bulk & they were restricted during our first launch so they couldn’t do it & they were disappointed.
So now we are offering the prices only in a bundle format. You need to be prepared to hand over USD$4.5K to get it, this way the people who only wanted one unit & missed out on the super low price are not being disadvantaged.
But if you are going to split a bulk buy order up for a group buy, why shouldn’t I just find 4 other buyers, all cancel our orders, and re buy as bulk- putting the burden on you to handle the shipping?
We’d save $1000+ cumulatively and you’d’ve gained nothing but a problem of splitting shipments
For various reason some people complained they missed out, this is the best solution I can offer. It’s up to you guys if you want to participate in buying the group buys or not & if you do proceed, one individual needs to be prepared to make the payment & organize the deal, So the burden is on the organizer.
Alright. I’ll leave it alone, just feels a bit- i dunno - 
feel free to arrange a group buy if you want.
I guess I got a little of track. I appreciate what you’ve done here, for your company and this community as a whole.
I just thought the idea of selling them AGAIN at 899 sends a bad message to those who put up $ first.
Your company - your decision.
Cheers and best of luck. . Looking forward to my Raptor 2 for whatever price I paid.
Love the new design and particular the 90x80mm rear wheels!!
Any reason the front wheels don’t match the same width as the rears? would this not create handling issues?
Personally, I think it’d look super cool to have the front wheels as wide as the back 
PS you know what else would be awesome!? A drop through deck 
Making the front wheel extra wide just adds extra weight, so we are just using normal width.
it will be there the option to choose the deck for the may bach?
I just finished making the Raptor 2 Kickstarter landing page, you can check it out here (click the K)
click the “K” in the top left…
We can’t see it because it seems like the Kickstarter page is still hidden to the public 
EDIT: go check it in incognito mode @onloop
