    Thanks for a good and honest review!
    One of local UA-camrs put his V5 on FB market. Never thought about getting myself an e-board but could not resist a price of $199 Canadian. Like it so far!

    My wowgo broke down a couple of weeks ago, and have been looking into getting a new board.
    Thought about grabbing a meepo, but the mini 3s honestly seems to be way ahead of V5, for almost the same price

    • @SimonSaysCanada
      @SimonSaysCanada  Рік тому +1

      In terms of specs, definately! It has more torque and power than the V5, which is more of a “last mile” form factor rather than a cruiser

      @@mndstelevatei took it out luckily to test it before using it for my commute to work. Found out it came with a defected battery so it would only run with the charger connected to it I had to wait a little while to get a new one 15 days. Had the new battery for a bit and then the same problem started to happen. Recently got another battery and it did not work it got me all the way to the bus stop before stopping even thought it said it was fully. Ride wise I really enjoyed it. I think this time when the battery stopped working on the bus, is my fault because I live in Florida and got caught in the rain not sure if it’s under warranty. All in all it’s a nice board but not worth the headache. Plus if you live in a place where you can’t be sure of the weather you may be better off getting a electric bike or scooter something you know won’t break due to rains.

      @@SimonSaysCanadaI wish I could say well. The first time I road it I didn’t because it came with a bad battery. Once I got a new one sadly that one also broke on me. I think it was because I got caught in the rain. Also there is a weird sound in the back left wheel sort of soon after riding it. All in all I like it I just can’t say it was worth it since I don’t actually get to ride it and currently unable to.

    Got this board yesterday.....3 miles into the ride the rear right wheel rubber(tire) sheered right off at 20 mph...my trust is broken, it's going back. It couldve been really ugly.
