For me I’ve been riding my new mten5 around a lot. It gets about 20 miles of range and will happily cruise at 20mph (max is somewhere over 30).

I also have an ebike, escooter, and 3 other electric unicycles (EUCs) but this little ripper has been my favorite this week.

    I love those! Drop through longboards are so comfy, but the maneuverability of a kick tail cruiser is nice too

      Yeah, I’m still getting the hang of longboarding but it rolls for days!

        I gave up on trying to commute with mine and switched back to my street board. Same for the Shakedown. They’re both too carvey, I need to tinker with them more. My old board is pretty dialed in though.

          Does everyone have a shakedown?

          I put 95A bushings in mine, tightened them down to about 2.5-3 threads, added extra shock risers, and waxed the cut outs. I still get a bit of wheelbite but I really have to lean into it and when it happens it only kinda slows down.

          You might have to try out different bushings but I’m right around 210-220 lbs to give you a frame of reference. My least favorite part of the board is that my foot hits the rear wheel when I push because it sticks out beyond the board.

            Yep. It’s not my favorite board, looks beautiful though.
