Great video! The all-terrain wheel options are a must have for comfort and safety when commuting, your legs will thank you!

[@electrifiedreviews]

oh ya for sure, and especially if you plan to go on trails. they do raise the center of gravity pretty considerably but they do also add a pretty dope layer of versatility.

[@GizmoGTI]

That board is dope, best all-round board currently on this planet!

[@tonycarter1442]

Great video! Vary informative! I'm waiting for my Hadean Carbon AT. Arriving end of October. Not going to use it for commuting but definitely planning some long rides here in San Diego. Will keep your shared information in mind. ✌🏻️

[@rzu7120]

You’ve got some smooth roads there. That was great when you were passing the bikes!

[@electrifiedreviews]

totally. that route is one of my favorites. smooth roads, beautiful views and almost no traffic. pretty sweet. stay safe out there R Zu!

[@vincentim54]

Amazing skate. I bought thé bamboo gtr street. After 2 weeks, I still don t believe it. So fast, so mooth, so powerful.. and let s talk about thé range ! 61 km with 13 % left after the trip. An average of 20 km/h, flat road along a river, 80% carving and m'y weight is 85 kg. The entire trip on ECO mode exept a Few smal hills with PRO mode. Genius ! So I can go To m'y uncle s home, bave a lunch with him while charging the batteries and come back home. A 120 km trip in a day and trust me, it s not so painful for your leggs if you don t stay To much static on thé board. Don t Forget a five min brake every 30 min. This board provide me much more tank expected.

Great video, thanks.

Very different review. Quite interesting point of view and tips.

[@electrifiedreviews]

hey vincentim54! ya we changed it up on this on this one since we've used the Evolve boards for so long. hope you dug it!

[@orlandomarinjr]

Brent McCluskey - Electrified Reviews very real world solid advice and all very true. No one ever mentions those not so obvious things that make all the difference

[@aidanhengehold7326]

It's sooooo nice. The bamboo just really is the icing on the cake.

[@electrifiedreviews]

SpartanKing ! what’s good buddy. ya honestly i wasn’t expecting to like it as much as i do. i can’t believe i’m saying this but i think i like it even more than my original carbon gt 😬

[@aidanhengehold7326]

Brent McCluskey - Electrified Reviews woooooahhh. I know you really liked it, but you really think it's better than *the carbon gt?*

[@electrifiedreviews]

TheSpartanKing haha ikr. ya i think it’s probably a better choice for commuting longer distances. the bamboo deck makes a pretty serious difference in the comfort department :)

[@aidanhengehold7326]

@@electrifiedreviews I suppose, any sneak peak you wanna share about the next video? Even if it's just the company :)?

TheSpartanKing next up will be a super sweet cruiser style electric bike. you’re gonna dig it. :)

[@hpgurgel]

I've recently bought a 2 in 1 Carbon GTR and the AT wheels are definitely my favourites despite the fact that my street ones are the ABEC 107mm which are supposed to be softer than the other street ones.

[@RFtelevision]

Just got mine today with the AT tire kit and I concur. AT tires all the way.

[@vincentlorrain9571]

Amazing. Range with m'y new bamboo gtr street : 61 km on eco Mode ! Flat road with an average speed of 20 km/h and carving most of the Time.

[@Ro-12-21]

That's pretty rad! Eco mode can be dull (unless you are carving ashalt like it's a turkey on Thanksgiving)

[@DareRage]

Thank you🤗 fr.

[@AlexGonzalez-no4vc]

Not even close to as steep as a small San Francisco street 😂😅 but still flyyiinn

[@dereklogan9097]

My roads have a lot of rough spots and uphill sections like 20 degree incline, would the all-terrain wheel option be better for me or would the regular wheals be alright?

[@thequanhitsback9088]

probably too late but dont get an evolve for hills, they are notorious forr struggling on hills

[@yeh_no_kiddingdummy7296]

Is it good with sidewalk cracks? Or when sidewalk is crooked?

[@valkalyuta2704]

Lmao that’s park on park in Rocklin CA 😂

[@electrifiedreviews]

wait which hill? on Sunset?

[@sidneyeramil974]

Ok, evolve is not reliable I have one and the remote and board both give me issues and for the price it’s unacceptable. Good review though

[@gghdjekrkk7711]

They advertise 26mph and that's easy possible

[@electrifiedreviews]

i believe you can squeeze another few mph out of it if you use the all-terrain wheels, but honestly i would suggest caution when going full speed with those wheels on... they’re dope for going on light trails but they’re way less stable than the street wheels.

[@aguycalledmatty9512]

Brent McCluskey - Electrified Reviews Other way round. It will go to 28mph with 107mm street wheels, 26mph at full charge with the street set up you have, and 22mph with all terrain (more torque, less top speed). The AT wheels are by far more stable than the urethane ones.

[@electrifiedreviews]

A Guy Called Matty ah that makes sense. thanks for clarifying that, Matty and sounds like i might need to try the 107s then haha

[@contorta960]

19 mile range, 30 kilometres. Not 30 miles. I love my GTR but your information is off here.

[@electrifiedreviews]

hey Luke! we love the GTR as well. it’s a pretty dope board. the max range on this board is indeed 31 miles, not kilometers. but the real-world range going full speed the entire time, is around 20 miles.

[@contorta960]

@@electrifiedreviews intersting because my manual states 30 kilometres, 19 miles. Doesn't say 30 miles anywhere. My real world usage is between 18 and 20. Perhaps the UK marketing team does something different. However for you to say 30 miles I think is fabrication and incorrect. I'm just basing this off having the same board, feel free to check my IG to verify that @lukeporro

[@Mrputiton2866]

Luke Porro what type of battery do you have ? Because the biggest battery they offer definitely has 30 miles on it.

[@contorta960]

@@Mrputiton2866 the big one, I.E not the travel one. Maybe going down hill costing for 10 miles you get 30 but that doesn't really count. Seems everyone stipulates, evolve included that 30km 19 miles is the range.
