Best buy for the MONEY!
I'm going to start with a 5-star rating based on the specs for the MONEY. 1Kw in power, 15 Miles in range, super stiff board and it even has lights for under 5 Benji's. - The only sad part for me is timing. Before I even took delivery of the eboard, the price dropped to $450. That's cool though. The Vendor is sending me a nice hat to compensate, so props to them. Let me be very transparent. I am a chunky monkey (230lb /100Kg+). I knew I needed at least 1Kw of power with in-hub motors to get my arse in motion. As much as I love the torque of belt drives, I really needed a board I could still push manually when the motor is turned off. A caution for other chunky monkey's who want to jump on the same eboard...the bushings need to be replaced with something stiffer, otherwise, you will end up with a lot of wobble at higher speeds. I just ordered some stiff eliminator/barrel bushing combos to replace the stock bushings. Outside of that, acceleration is smooth, but the brakes are abrupt. The brakes require a bit of acclimation, but it isn't horrible. You'll get used to it with a few minutes of practice. If this board came with quick change batteries of different sizes and maybe a more robust remote, it would be an ALLSTAR. (Need 100WH batteries to take this on an airplane. You can leave one in the board and carry on 2 extra batteries. Some airlines will allow up to 200WH per battery.) As of today, I'm happy. Will update if things change.

Lots of fun
The board feels like very good quality for the money, Range has been very good, its faster than I want to go, easy to push like a regular board if you run out of battery. My only issue is with the remote, it feels cheap, there is noticeable lag between your input and when board reacts, Mine at least starts in reverse every time I power it on so its annoying. none of the lights are labeled to I have no idea what any of it means. there is a light for when its charging and goes off when its done only problem is its hidden inside the remote and the only way to see it is though the hole where the lanyard attaches other wise it does what its required to do and for the cost they had to cut corners somewhere and the important bit is the board itself. Also it is 3 speeds even though description says 2, Low gets to about 10mph, Medium gets to about 18mph, High gets up to 25 (I have never tried so I dont know if its true. Has plenty of hill climbing ability I weigh about 180 and it blasts up even the steepest hills in my area with ease.

Pretty much amazed me so far. Great job so far skatebolt a+++
Added a video just now cause my other videos are taking longer then expected. Shot these videos today during the eclipse.. Boards is awesome. I'm 250lbs and live in a very hilly area. It took me up the hills at crazy speeds when I first got it, after about a week the power is a little less. It's not taking me up the hills at the same crazy speed, but it is still very fast and powerful going up those same hills. I still have not even switched the board into fast mode. I have had the board at 22mph and have really had no need to put it into the faster mode. I am a experienced rider. I also have filmed the un-boxin and riding around for the past week. Up and down big gradient hills. I will be posting the videos online after editing is done. I have had the board a good week now. No complaints except for the little bit of power I think it has lost so far. The customer service is great and I'm sure they will fix the problem for me. As they have been very helpful and fast with every question I have asked. I asked questions about this board and did research for about 2 months before I made the purchase. My friend has a genesis, which is the same as the koowheels. It out performs his board big time and he is 140 pounds while I'm 250 lbs. and I'm still out preforming him. As far as distance I have done a 15 mile trek on this. Didn't use super fast speeds but did go at a decent pace. It still had a little bit of juice left even after that trek. The power wasn't the same but it would definitely still keep going. I also did a 10 mile trek on it and this trek had a couple major hills. It did kill the battery faster, but it still had a little juice in it when done again. This board is on point and the manufacture has done a great job with this board. I 100% recommend this board. It's quality and you cannot beat the price. Don't forget the discount code after check out. They have done there job with the manufacturing of this board and done it at a affordable price. As far as I'm concerned, this board is right up there with the boards that are $1500++. Finally something not outrageously priced and that has some quality for the price. I will be posting a video review as well. If you wanna ask me some questions feel free to ask. ap ea rl 801@ gmail com. This will be a follow up review as time goes on with this board.P.S.Also wanted to add some stuff about the remote. The remote is touchy, but that is the way it should be in my opinion. I am a gamer and when using my controls they are very touchy and precise. This is how you want things, so that you can improve to the best of your ability. They need to be very touchy and precise. This will also give you best response time and more. It's very easy to get used to and your muscle memory will get right into action with it in no time. I Have not had any connection issues with the remote. And I'm talking I have gone straight down 25-30-% gradients with brakes all the way back for over a mile, with no problem and it did recharge my board. Pretty cool. Also remember to tighten everything down and check everything before you ride. Get everything set to your preferences before stepping on the board. Also check the trucks. I just re-checked mine cause of the review where the guy said his broke. Mine look sturdy. I feel bad for that guy. He had some bad luck I guess. Do your due diligence before riding!!
