Makes sense that they used GT components to refresh the XR platform. Theyre invested in those parts since they're current production. Looking forward to someone, unbiased and totally not a paid actor, comparing tractive power and acceleration between XR and GT.
Nice rip, stoked everyones fave came back, looking strong! The goldilocks board lol Ive never actually ran one before. Just Pint X and GT so far but I'm deff looking to get one next summer.
How about waterproofing? Or badgering? I’ve ridden my new XRC in rain for 109 miles so far and have zero issues. Do you have videos on doing the XRC badgering?
I don't have any videos on improving the water resistance of the Onewheel XR Classic, but it should be nearly identical to that of the Onewheel GT/GTS (as well as the Pint/X/S). The Float Life has a great video for that over on their channel if you'd like to check it out. ua-cam.com/video/b5q5yRb17PQ/v-deo.htmlsi=O1pNDaDGHMBNuzkH
Id imagine it’s just a 6 inch motor with GT magnets. The same way there is the “GTS” 6.5 inch hub and the “GT” 6.5 inch hub. We already had the GTS 6 inch? Now this fills the gap of the “GT” hardware 6 inch
@fixmypev first Neil said the motor is unique to the board, then he said it is not a gt or gts motor, then he said all he he knows is the motor is unique to the board and that a gts motor would be an upgrade. I think I can just tag you in the comments if you want to see yourself.
@@chrisc790 exactly. If the gts motor is an upgrade, then the stock motor almost definitely has the lower grade magnets. It’s effectively a stock gt motor but 6” instead of 6.5”
Aw heck yeah and looks like your float slides are like mine way to big lol my size 10s are really a 12 cool video bubba I wish my wife would let me keep my boxes lol shred on friend
Yeah! I wear a size 11.5-12 shoe and there’s definitely some generous room in these things. They were a steal at $4.20. Just had to re-glue them and they were good.
@ heck yeah bubba and you got any gt goodies laying around trying to build up my lightning rails what would you prefer gts gt or should I do the float wheel drop in kit I want a trail beast but also board capable of 40s on the street hints the lightning rails for that awesome low center of gravity..Float on brother
@@TattedTommysTv All I can say is RESEARCH RESEARCH RESEARCH. Haha. If you’re wanting to push 40s on the street, you’re going to need a lot more than an FM board or even a drop-in kit. You’ll need to go full custom with your VESC build, will need to beef up the battery, and will need to have your tuning dialed in. There are very few people who have eclipsed 40 MPH on a onewheel.
The standard GT fender and delete do not fit because of the differences in the shapes of the rails and axle carriers, but split finders may still work. I don’t have any or I’d try them out.
Way to bring the tension at minute 37 lol! Thanks for the tear down, awesome to see there’s already a few out there and ppl excited about what they (we) can do with this board!
So it weighs 32.4 lbs and uses the exact same footpads and fender delete as the GT so stance is the exact same. I’m super curious how much different it actually rides compared to a lowered GT.
@nathanofearthh my bad, I hadn't realized they made this a higher voltage output. High while commenting as I watched.. another video I had just seen said it was the same as stock original xr... you are correct that the drop in should workfine then
So far it looks great the only thing that I'm worried about is the fact that it's 18650 cells versus 21 700 cells. So concerned about the whole torque thing. Have an XR I've always complained that it needs more torque we bought a pint X for my girlfriend now I use it because my XR is out of Commission. Looking at the newer boards the GT Or the GTS which have the newer 21700 cells if I'm correct? But they're huge so what do you guys think is it that important to sell difference to me it is because I use it every day for work. To spend $1900 on 18650 cells
@fixmypev hmm yes I understand that part. But I guess I'm thinking of it under tool batteries right? If I have a 18 volt tool with 18650 cells but then I have 21 700 sales. The power is more available with the 21700 cells. The voltage hasn't changed
@@Therealphantomzero When comparing similar configurations, yes. There is more available usage when you're using 21700 cells over 18650 cells. The GT has quite a bit more range for roughly $400 more.
Thanks for this! A couple of questions: any idea what cells are in the battery? Would be nice if we could figure out the watt hour capacity. And guessing it's not compatible with XR rails and footpads?
We knows it an 18650. Which one is more difficult, but the P28A is a strong contender as FM use the P42A in the GT and P45B in the GT-S. The only other 18650 they used were the VTC5D and Samsung 30Q. I hope someone takes a look at it because it is very interesting
Not sure what the cells are, but I’ll be doing a deeper level teardown for my website and will be sure to look more closely at the battery sticker. And you are correct. The OG XR parts are not compatible with the XRC.
if repairing PEV's is what they do, they'll want to know what they're getting into & they are also providing us with important information to consider when DIY'ing
I’m big on accountability so I share my opinions when I feel moved to, but I’m not a core FM hater either. I’ve given them props many times. That said, this purchase wasn’t a personal one. I have no intention of making this my daily board. However, the content is something that both supports the goals of my business and the collective interest of many in the community. If I was just a rider, this board would not be in my possession right now. 😉
I didn’t. I don’t plan on opening up the battery pack, but I will be opening the enclosure again and will definitely be taking a closer look at the sticker on the underside of the battery.
The exact one I have is a DCF885 - 1/4" (6.35 mm) 20V Max* Cordless Impact Driver. Any similarly sized impact driver will work. Just make sure to use impact rated bits to avoid issues and/or potential injury.
Based on the visual redesign of the battery enclosure, I am fairly confident the battery enclosures from both the GT and GTS will not fit in the XRC rails. Although I haven’t tried…
Thanks for this Justin, I'm guessing the bottom plastic part of the battery box has less depth than standard GT one, so it fits inside the narrower rails?
100% agree. Thankfully, the Right To Repair Act is now a thing so repairability will be a factor. We just need to see them get their parts offerings on their website updated.
At 16:18 you speculate that it is a GTS motor. Nah, I'd bet it's a GT motor in a 6" hub. They put the GTS motor in the accessories so you will want to buy it as an upgrade. I'm sure that is how they think - upsell to the max. They could have (and should have) made the 6" hub on GTS (and GT) from the start but as a planned rollout of an upsell, they bring it in 6 months later so you'll have to buy it separately. Now they could offer you the opportunity to buy the XRC with GTS motor for ~$200 extra but they would rather you have to pay $800 + shipping if you want it, then you have an extra motor that you don't know what to do with. There is a word for companies like this.
Looking forward to finding out what the differences are between the XRC motor and the others (GT & GTS). Maybe TFL will do another magnet measurement. I’ll be taking a look at the stator soon, but I’m not expecting to see anything too different visually.
The tag on the caps was the thing to do hahahaha. Had some friends who had their caps so long the tag just fell of by itself, and it left a nasty circle where the tag used to sit 🤣
Was expecting a teardown from more of a XR compatibility standpoint, like what XR mods can you buy that wont fit on the new board, seemed more focused on the GT comparisons.
Close to none, this is pretty much a gt in a different shape, footpads are gt compatible and so should be the fenders, battery and controller box are also pretty much gt ones
The rail connectors have got to be slightly angled upwards make the rails lower and have a longer GC for an "XR" feel. If u ask me, this is literally a GT with some makeup. I'm not surprised though.
The angled part doesn’t seem to impact the ride height in any way. Just seems like a design decision to me. It’s the part of the axle block that sits above the rail.
I don’t get the hate. Haters: It doesn’t fit XR parts. Also haters if it did: They should’ve gone with a higher voltage. Also haters if they did: it’s $3000! It’s the same with the Pint S. They priced it cheap and dropped the price of the X, they also pushed the firmware to the X. Haters: “they should’ve given it more power” while simultaneously complaining about the price even though it’s cheap. Bro, these haters are pizza cutters man. All edge and no point. Nothing will make them happy I swear.
For sure. Nobody will ever be able to please everybody. It’s human nature to constantly want more. It’s what has progressed us as a race, but has also held us back from enjoyment and gratefulness at times.
So Future Motion Trick us by Recycling ♻️ the GT and Make a XR looking Railing 🤷♂️ and make Everybody Buy there XR Classic just to Say They have a New Product. But the ReaL TRUTH is the Board is A GT. Mind as Well Buy the GT ..... it's the same Thing. They Just Make Everybody Exited for Nothin 😅
A lot of folks greatly prefer the form factor of the xr over the gt. It’s lighter weight, and lower center of gravity. Plus this comes with the 6” hub which is far superior to the 6.5” on the gt. This should be a better board in every way except for the bump in range the gt has. If I didn’t already have a heavily upgraded gt and wasn’t ready to dive into vesc (lets face it the floatwheel is superior to all FM boards), this would be the board to get by a long shot and what I would recommend any new person to get
@DoctorDugong21 Feel like after seeing the Video the Board look like GT. They should just Release the OG XR with Better Range and More Torque. OG XR more Simple Looking 🫡
This is a GT with XR rails, to me it's a little silly, but it could be looked at as nostalgic, but it'll never be an XR… And ive never owned an XR. Ive had a Pint then a GT and now GT Turned Vesc. But I guess people will like it? It's all good, just seems like an FM money grab.
Remember their trade in program? Yeah... you are buying back old garbage. Future motion will always be z shifty company. Also dude, lose the metal ring when working with pcb and dc currrent .
None of the parts on the XR Classic came from the OG XR. Not unless they recycled people’s valve caps. 😂 And the ring comes off when it needs to. It’s not customary for me to be fist-deep in a PCB. This work requires attention to detail and a steady hand, both of which have served me well over the years. 💯
@@MrDmadness Ahh. I see. The controller PCB is the exact same as the GT, but not as the OG XR. It's way more like a GT in general, but with an XR twist.
Correction:

In a nutshell, yes. It is pretty much a GT in XR-style rails. Along with the lower ride height and 6” hub.
Remember their trade in program? Yeah... you are buying back old garbage. Future motion will always be z shifty company. Also dude, lose the metal ring when working with pcb and dc currrent .
None of the parts on the XR Classic came from the OG XR. Not unless they recycled people’s valve caps. 😂
And the ring comes off when it needs to. It’s not customary for me to be fist-deep in a PCB. This work requires attention to detail and a steady hand, both of which have served me well over the years. 💯
@fixmypev yes, i stand corrected here and accept that. My comment was from a video i watched prior claiming the pcb waa the exact same one.
@@MrDmadness Ahh. I see. The controller PCB is the exact same as the GT, but not as the OG XR. It's way more like a GT in general, but with an XR twist.
@fixmypev yeah, ive learned this. Id still rather a tony mod for my xr over a fm one
