[@arnbolf]

Thanks for this great first review of the bc2. I will order it pretty soon, can't wait to ride it. I'm thinking about the 115 rubbers, and the 105 cloud wheels for a bit more range. But more than 30km with the ruppers is def a reason for me to buy! Looking forward to see your next vid!

[@itsmatt3627]

Thanks mate for your message! Yeah 115mm + 105 CW is a great combo in my opinion. Sometimes you’ll really want comfort so you’ll go with the Rubber and otherwise you’ll go with the 105mm to have better range. Range test with the 105mm will be definitely a next video to do! Cheers

[@arnbolf]

@@itsmatt3627 awesome, that's what I wanted to hear! Rangetest with the 105 cw would be well appreciated. What do you think, would the 120mm cw have a significant boost to the range in comparison to the 105 cw?

[@itsmatt3627]

@@arnbolf I don't think that you would have much more with the 120 cw compare to the 105mm but you'll have few kms more. I do have the 120mm Cloudwheels too. So I could make a video of comparison about 105mm vs 120mm Cloudwheels range! Yes let's definitely do this video!

i know it's quite off topic but does anyone know of a good place to stream newly released series online?

[@esk8unity]

she looks absolutely amazing.. mine will be here next week... some advice, get a Y shapped truck tool. like from evolve or amazon has em. u can access the bottom truck bolt without taken off the top bolt.. and isnt it 756wh not 648wh

[@itsmatt3627]

Nahh 756wh is calculated with the max tension of the cells (4.2V), you always have to calculate with the nominal tension (3,6V), which leads to 648Wh.

[@esk8unity]

@@itsmatt3627 got it, thanks!

[@astersarte1282]

Great review, mon amie! Just know basic French. lol. So what other wheels can fit on the OBC2? Aloha from Hawaii!

[@itsmatt3627]

Aha, that's a good start in French! 97mm PU wheels, 105mm Cloudwheels,.. basically all wheels that has ABEC or KEGEL core from 97 to 130mm max! Below 97mm you'll touch too often the ground with the motors.. Cheers from France

[@erikdgreenlund]

Have u had a chance to try the dual belts BC2 yet.... so u think the dd motors are more or less gonna react the same way they do for the Challenger as far as speed and torque

[@itsmatt3627]

Hey Erik, thanks for your comment. Yes indeed, I already tried the BC2 belt when I was in Switzerland. You'll have more torque and acceleration with the Belt Drive version. For the Direct Drive of the BC, you'll have more acceleration and speed than with the Challenger simply because you have a bigger battery (12s3p for the BC2 and 12s2p for the Challenger)

[@adamsimonow]

[@Dutch800]

Great review! I ordered one of these boards, What pulley's do you need for the 105mm Cloud Wheels? Thanks

[@itsmatt3627]

Hey mate, thanks for your feedback! Both ABEC pulley, 40T and 45T, will work with the 105mm Cloudwheels. With the 40T you'll have better top speed and with 45T better torque. So at the end it depends on how you'll use the board and how you prefer your rides, more top speed 🚀or more torque ⚙️💨Cheers

[@Dutch800]

Thanks for the detailed reply.

[@papahumza]

I appreciate your insight and reviews! I just got into esk8ing after building my own.. came across your review of this that really got me looking into onsra What would you say is the biggest difference between the stock wheels vs. the cloud wheels?

[@itsmatt3627]

Thanks for your feedback! The main difference between the 115mm Rubbers and the Cloudwheels is the range. You'll loose 10km of range by using the 115mm Rubbers, but they also are more comfortable and perfect for carving, you really feel nothing on the road. The cloudwheels are good for comfort too though, my favorite ones because of the range that you can get on a single charge! Next week a new video about the wheels will come out on the channel, stay tuned ;)

[@papahumza]

@@itsmatt3627 that's awesome. Thanks for the tip. 10km is pretty significant. If you can review the rubber on gentle off roading, that would be great! Comparing them to the at offered, or are they not necessary as the 115 rubber are pretty good all rounders

[@itsmatt3627]

@@papahumza AT are for another type of ride. If you go offroad, go for the AT, the 115mm are good but I won't recommend it for intense off road sessions. They will handle pretty well rough roads, grass, etc.. but for real off road track, you better should go for the pneumatic 6" AT!

[@papahumza]

@@itsmatt3627 totally makes sense. I mainly am on pavement. But I see so many others riding AT on-road.. but, with your feedback and what I'm hearing from others, the 115mm should be decent for my purposes.

[@TLCampbell24]

I'm looking to buy my first board. I have no experience. I'll probably not let myself go much faster than 22 MPH. I mainly want a comfortable ride with tires that are less likely to lose traction. Are the stock wheels on this better or as good as cloud wheels? Is this board too much for a beginner with no experience?

[@itsmatt3627]

Hey there, thanks for your message! The board is totally fine for beginners as well. There are 3 speed modes and you can definitely use the 1st speed mode at the beginning. The 115mm Rubber wheels, I found them even better than the CW because they stick to the ground, you don't slip and they're much more comfortable. The only bad point is that they reduce the range of the board. But you can still ride 35/40km easy with them, which is already a long ride! If you want inflate tires, you would need to check the belt drive version. On the video it's the Direct Drive, mainly used for street rides. If you wanna ride offroad, go for the belt ;)

[@tazri1247]

Très jolie planche mais est-ce que elle est maniable en virage serré ? Par exemple pour un demi-tour il faut prévoir large ?

[@itsmatt3627]

Si tu roules avec les trucks vraiment dé-serrés, le rayon est vraiment petit, tu peux faire demi tour facilement avec ces trucks, comme il y a 2 axes de rotations. Il faudrait que je fasse une vidéo la dessus ;)

[@RedMcc]

36 km is terrible when they say 32.5-35 miles. 36km is a huge difference from whats advertised, Would be curious ranges folks are getting. Would rather return board to get a longer range

[@willysoul5428]

Will this board cope with long and heavy heavy rains? It's time for manufacturers to think about full water protection, not everywhere in the world there is frequent sun and good weather. And your feet don't hurt after long trips? As for tiles, parks and rough roads, is there really any development compared to other manufacturers in terms of vibration damping?

[@itsmatt3627]

Hey Willy, thanks for your comment. Well it's IP65, means it handles low pressure water and dust, for heavy heavy rains, I'm not sure. But what's the point to ride in a heavy rain? Unpleasant and kind of dangerous. I mean personally that wouldn't be a pleasure to ride in a heavy rain. I can understand riding in the rain if you have bad weather in your area, but as soon as it's heavy rain better to take a car or transport. The Rubbers wheels + the 4mm grip tape reduce very well the vibrations, so even after a 2h ride your feet don't hurt. Boards are well tested against vibrations, and I rode on very rough roads, the board handles pretty well. Cheers ✌🏻

[@willysoul5428]

@@itsmatt3627 Right thoughts. Thanks for the answer:)

[@willysoul5428]

[@JohnDoe-vs9fm]

What is in your opinion the best between DD and belt for the BC2 ?

[@itsmatt3627]

Belt drive, you'll have more acceleration as you can adjust the gear ratio by changing the pulleys. Definitely more versatile as you can put any wheels from 80mm to 6"/7" AT wheels. DD is more stealthy, completely quiet. As long as you ride in the city center and not in a hilly area I'll recommend the DD. If you want to do some off road sessions and need some torque, go for the belt drive!

[@JohnDoe-vs9fm]

Hey @@itsmatt3627 I went for the DD as it requires less (to none) maintenance and was available straight away. I'm a little concerned about the speed and torque but it'll probably still knock me out of the board lol

[@maitredanceshow1275]

Bonjour, quelle est l'autonomie réelle en roulant plutôt entre 20-25km/h avec la version poulies roues tout terrain de 150mm ?

[@itsmatt3627]

Bonjour, tout dépend de votre poids, de la route sur laquelle vous allez rouler si c'est plat ou en pente, mais plus vous roulez lentement, plus vous aurez de l'autonomie. Les autonomies sont calculées en roulant à la vitesse maximum, mais comptez sur un bon 40km (je ne connais pas votre poids exact après, et cela influence beaucoup)! Si vous êtes intéressé regardez sur www.onsrafrance.fr, ils vont recevoir du stock d'ici peu de temps pour pouvoir rouler en juillet! Bons rides

[@maitredanceshow1275]

Les autonomies sont calculées en vitesse maximum ? Première marque ou j'entends ça. Super. 73kg et chemins plutôt plats nord, max 50m de denivelé par session. j'aimerai pratiquer plus de chemin caillouteux genre petits cailloux max 6mm. Je crois que ONSRA sera ma prochaine board mais dans quelques années si les prix se maintiennent car je viens d'acheter ma première board plus street. J'attends de la rentabiliser et passer au tout terrain. Merci

[@itsmatt3627]

@@maitredanceshow1275 yes chez onsra, ils essayent de pousser les specs avec les utilisations normales de rides pour donner une idée réelle de l'autonomie. Après bien sur cela dépend de pleins de facteurs (routes, dénivelés, poids, température, conditions de rides), mais ce n'est pas calculé en roulant a 15 km/h sur une piste plate et en faisant des tours en rond sur un circuit! Profitez bien de vos rides ! ✌🏻

[@maitredanceshow1275]

Bonjour, je vois que ONSRA ne vend pas les batteries seules, identiques à l'originale sur le site, pourquoi ? D'autres marques reconnues le font.

[@itsmatt3627]

@@maitredanceshow1275 Ils ont des batteries de rechanges qu'ils vendent à leur client, ils ne les mettent pas sur leur site pour conserver le stock de batterie aux clients existants ayant une ONSRA. Si vous avez besoin d'une nouvelle batterie, il n'y aura aucun soucis pour s'en procurer une!

Salut ! Je vois que cette très belle review a été faite sur Marseille, ça tombe bien c’est là que j’habite! Je me permet de poser une question, est-ce que c’est vraiment pratique de se déplacer avec un skate électrique (particulièrement à Marseille) ? J’ai pris un OneWheel XR l’année dernière, et faut reconnaître que c’est ultra fun, mais c’est juste impraticable à Marseille, sur le plan pratique, c’est vraiment la cata. Si mon but c’est essentiellement de me déplacer, est-ce que c’est pas mieux de prendre directement un vélo en fait ? Moins fun certainement.. Merci d’avance si j’obtiens une réponse, sinon ce n’est pas grave, à moi de continuer de fouiller ;)

[@itsmatt3627]

Hello et merci pour ton commentaire! Cela fait 5 ans que je ride tous les jours à Marseille et c'est clairement pratique de se déplacer en skate électrique, c'est du snow urbain donc beaucoup plus fun que le vélo ;) Si tu es un amateur de glisse le skate est parfait! C'est vrai que Onewheel est plus compliqué sur Marseille du fait du manque des pistes cyclables et des mauvaises routes. En skate ça se fait plutôt bien comme tu peux rouler sur la route et être dans le trafic! Les voitures se demandent souvent ce que c'est comme engin donc sont beaucoup plus prudents qu'avec les trotts! Pour les routes endommagées, les roues 115mm Rubbers sont vraiment bien adaptées à Marseille, c'est comme si tu roulais sur du beurre, ça absorbe vraiment toutes les vibrations. Tu peux regarder la vidéo que j'avais faite sur les différents type de roues sur la BC2 : kzbin.info/www/bejne/iYnWg3Rjodl-ibs& En tout cas moi c'est un vrai plaisir de rouler tous les jours en skate dans Marseille, c'est un sentiment de liberté! 😉

So... Evolve has a $200 off sale atm. If you had to make 1 more sale to top off your retirement fund and stop working for the rest of your life, what sales pitch would you give me to sell me on an ONSRA BC2 while I'm on my way to buy an Evolve? Great video btw. The only thing I would recommend you do is even out the audio levels. The transition sound between the sections was a little loud compared to your voice. So I found myself turning up after the transitions and down during the transitions.

[@itsmatt3627]

Hey Invy, thanks for your feedback on the video. I'll check better the sound for next videos! Really appreciate it! As for the boards, well there is a reason why Evolve is dropping their price $200, you probably saw it in Dkwan comparison videos, Evolve struggled a lot with the new boards that are on the market. Basically the GTR is almost 3 years old, and you can find better quality and performances for a better price. If I was at your place, I won't go for Evolve GTR, I'm not telling you to go for ONSRA, just not going for Evolve. This board is already old and again, better performances on other cheaper boards! Cheers mate!
