“Once installed it's a great kit and is an awesome handle. I do wish the screws were a little longer but its not the end of the world. Also have to be very careful when taking the screws off the board to install as they can strip very easily if not careful.”
“The bash guard kit comes with two new motor plates that have pre drilled holes (2) for the bash guard brackets to be screwed to. The online installation video shows that you need to remove the existing motor plates on your board and install the new motor plates however my GTR bamboo came with the new version motor plates already fitted (with the pre drilled bracket holes) so I didn’t need to remove my motor plates. I just fitted the two brackets to my existing motor plates. The bash guard looks great and it’s very practical. My thoughts only but I think evolve should consider including it as a standard fit on all GTR boards”
“We have been rather hard on our boards as there are boulders lining the path we most commonly take. These guards have saved us many times from smashed running gear from our boards shooting out the back when bikes, dogs and/or kids jump out in front of us.”
“This is a must have for every board. They serve multiple benefits, not just protection for your motors. They also act as a sturdy temporary place to stand your board in your trips when just going for a ride isn’t all your up to for the day. When used this way they also act as protection for your belt protection covers that are plastic and damage/ scratch easily. The bash guard gives you piece of mind when handling and placing it in a convenient place in any venue becomes a breeze.
No negative although I feel that all boards need to move to have these as a standard inclusion when buying your board. Happy for the board to ride in price, let’s face it, they are incredibly cheap for the experience you get once your on one. Seriously evolve skateboards need to prepare to take over the world, these products and what they do in a whole as a package is mind blowing”
