Nice! I wonder how they preform. Smoother ride than abecs?
It is smooth, not as much grip as Abecs as you can imagine, theyâre only 25mm wide compared to 50mm flywheels, but enough to be honest, I donât ride mega hard or carve loads.
I tried bigger wheels because of the roads, cycle paths and pavements around where I ride are atrocious!

whew! is there any rules I should know? Im gonna right in the heat of all the touristy things, I assume sidewalks are no gos but bike lanes are fine?
Electric skateboards are a grey area here. There was a case this or last year about a guy who was drunk on his 4WD Eboard and the police wanted to charge him with DUI but case was thrown out by the courts because they believe âno reasonable person would see him as a road userâ.
Iâve passed police cars and foot patrol and never had any problems. As long as youâre safe and considerate you should be fine.
I think esk8 is in grey area in terms of law here. For sure youâre not allowed to ride on pavements. Thatâs a big no!
The police are stretched real thin here thanks to budget cuts, donât give em a reason to talk to you and youâll should be fine.
If you see a bored policeman (these are a particularly troublesome breed), just kick when passing them at a reasonable speed.
As long are you arenât endangering others or yourself I donât think they care.
sounds easy enough. I usually ride at normal longboard speeds anyways and got surprisingly few looks in Barcelona. Im stoked! finishing charging my board and phone within the next 45 minutes and then im gonna take the maiden voyage!

Not had any issues where I live but I think the uk law is electric vehicles in bike lanes or on pavement must not go above 8mph! Just be cautious only open it up on quiet roads!
Ohhh! Shall I bring locktite tomorrow ? 
Well
It needs 24hrs to cure anyway ;(
Didnât you have a nyloc nut on that!?
Iâve got some spare, shall I bring one or two?
