“I bought this a while ago and i've had some experience on the streets. I use it to commute to some places and it is hands down the best way of commuting i've ever used. Honestly skating down the busy streets with this is like being in a video game and you will fall off and make yourself look like an idiot more than once in the start but worth the end result. I still haven't hit its max speed yet since it is still very scary for me and honestly even going at 11mph on this thing is still exhilarating.
It beats using a bus or bike and I've ditched my car in favour of the bamboo more than once so yeah well worth the price already and my friends love having goes on it too. My only regret with this is not getting the all terrain wheels however but thats because the city I live in has pretty rough surfaces so the street wheels might be OK in the likes of London or Manchester for example.”
“The price is a tad high for a longboard, yes, if you view it simply as a longboard. As a means of transportation, fun, and a utility, this is worth every penny. Easy to maintain, more routes to take than a car in cities, and an unlimited amount of freedom. This is, by far, the most exhilarating purchase I’ve made. The customer support is top notch, the board rides like butter, and the fun never stops. If you are questioning anything, it’s time to stop, click purchase, and see what adventure awaits.”
“Board and trucks are amazing awesome carving but battery was playing up only saying 80% when fully charged so sent back they tested and said it was fine,so far so good but one of my belts has stripped and now I did to replace under 1 month old:(”
Hi Steve,
Thanks for taking the time to write your review.
We have had a look at the history and our team charged your board with your charger and it charged to 100% without issue. The cells balanced, the board was load tested and all functionality was sound. If you are still experiencing the concern, please respond to this email and we can get to the bottom of it together!
As for the belt, please be sure to check for rocks or debris caught in them as this is the most common cause for needing a replacement belt.
If there's anything else we can assist with, please feel free to ask us.
RegardsEvolve HQ
“Everything is perfect the skateboard is the best I’m 210 pounds and I can get 25 miles on it on eco-the remote control is a piece of shit they need to build something stronger”
“Converted to the Bamboo GTR after a a few satisfying years on other brands. Strong preference Evolve's durable belts, long deck, and versatile wheel options. I do think the Evolve remote could stand to be simplified. The very fancy color display is inconsequential while you are looking at the surface ahead, and I found the double rocker switches less intuitive and instinctive that a single rocker. Minor criticisms aside, this is easily my weapon of choice for commuting and recreation. The easy turning radius is bliss, and the real world capability to roll over the cracks, rocks, and pits of city streets is confidence inspiring. I feel much safer on this than any other board I've tryed.”
