I knew that looked like Florida. Too bad it’s too far for me to go check them out. Maybe @longhairedboy can, the website says they are located in saint Augustine.

Yes, me too, at first seen the vegetation I thought that was Florida or perhaps Queensland, Australia. I turn out to be Florida.

How’s the maintaince? From what I heard in Vegas, with the Baja board, you spend more time adjusting and tuning. It than you spend riding it. Seems like the more complex you make it, the more maintaince I would expect.

I see so much potential. Most of it is pointlessly wasted in weight.

I like seeing an evolution of this concept. Hub motors = heavy unsprung weight. Absolutely a big disadvantage when offroading… Would like a closer look to their suspension/steering as bumpsteer is really tough to engineer out and very crucial to stability. The Baja can barely be ridden flat and smooth at 20mph, Would like to see how these guys made 30 with 6" of travel. Video looks like a good time but would like to see it in a race at a bmx track heads up againsed conventional AT wisdom.:checkered_flag:. If this thing will really do 30mph on a 35%grade you guys should bring it to the Barrett Junction Esk8 uphill race in January. Would be glad to have you and see this in action…

I think they will @MoeStooge …if they were members of this forum! :laughing: It was my idea to bring attention to this company, but 'am not related to them and I don’t know who they are. Sorry guys.

The panel of peers in this forum are the world’s Esk8 judge, jury, and executioners. There is no other place like here with all of you. Sorting out the good and the bad is just a part of progress.
