I purchased one yesterday for my BuddyBuddy Cruiser that I skate “acoustic”.
(Mellow Drive battery falls out = DIY concussion kit)
That being said, I liked the BuddyBuddy deck so much I went to Mellow USA and bought a Cruiser deck - and I’m so glad I did, because today it’s my grab and go.
Actually the difference with the Vereal is the interchangable urethane plus the ride is much better. Is a Meepo killer. But this price in this video is too much. First time I saw the board was like $ 275. Now is expensive. Whats going on?
those motors look pretty similar to meepo hubs, is that just a the outer part of the motor sold as “replaceable urethane”? its almost as expensive as the entire motor
All these board are ruined by poor quality reputation, arguing that it’s quality when it looks like all the others which came before it and had horrible issues makes no sense…best to start with something that looks nothing like it, if it’s truly different, right? Otherwise it just looks like another company trying to dump old stock of failed and obsolete parts no one wants…if these companies spent as much time and effort on the product quality as they do trying to pull the wool over people’s eyes, they might actually get somewhere…I want to see that board after 3000 miles on it…most of these things are designed to run long enough for the seller to just get away and re-brand…
You are prolly right. Honestly I have thought about getting an R2 on many occasions, but I enjoy building too much. Im sure the R2 is outclassing every other pre-build excluding the Ollin and Carvon models, but I still think these things belong over there.
