    Great review! I've been waiting for them to be back in stock bcs i don't wanna wait indefinitely after ordering but every review i've seen seems to be really positive. Looking forward to them being in stock and having faster shipping.

    I also love the Revel kit. Direct drive and safe braking.
    BTW, Beware of policemen. There are so many people living in Setagaya.

    So nice to see you enjoy the hell out of that thing! I'm also in the market for a kit, found an official dealer over in Germany (Essen) where I want to order my kit as well. How is your experience with the flexing of the deck and the battery holder maybe kicking against the deck? Noticed anything like that?

    • @davetastic6620
      @davetastic6620  4 роки тому +2

      I had the same worries but so far I had no issue with Flex 2 and battery banging. I wouldn’t go more flexy though

    Could you please try to answer this question if you see it, i find it really hard to get that info.. What weight do you get with your board all set up with the kit? you can find out if you weight yourself on a scale first and then with the board. You would make my day ! sounds weird i know haha

      The remote feels very good. I’d say same as any other remote. I never feel its cheap or low quality when I use it

    I have my eyes on this kit for quite a long time now and im just really concerned about the motors being exposed and too close to the ground im afraid that rocks would really ruin the motors.

      Keep over 90mm wheels and you should be good. Go bigger for more clearance if you live in a bumpy area

    Your foot placement and weight distribution are causing the wobble, not the hardware. You need MOST of your weight centered over front axle. Square your shoulders over the front wheels andim sure you can go over 40 without wobble. Crazy difference seriously

    • @davetastic6620
      @davetastic6620  4 роки тому +1

      Thanks for the feedback! Not hard to tell that I'm a newbie. :)
      (But no plans to go anywhere near 40. Enough crashes with my bike taught me)

      @@sottosotto4056 I can tell you after trying a few boosted boards along with many other boards using hobbywing remotes I have done over 1400 KM on my revel kits. I much prefer the revel remote. It gives such a smooth acceleration and deceleration curve. So far nothing I have tried can beat the feeling of it. Not even close. Lots of people people say they don't like them but probably they have not tried it for more than a minute.

    just saying but no one should use the revel kit on wet roads
