There is a CLEAR WINNER - Meepo Mini 2S vs the Mini 5. These electric skateboards are almost the same price be WORLDS APART in practicality. Also, watch the video to see me crash HARD on one of the E boards
Thanks! I have a Boosted Mini X that I've owned since like, 2017. I stripped the screws that connect the belt shields, so I haven't been using it. I was thinking up upgrading to a Meepo Mini but it's hard to decide without seeing how they compare. I wouldn't want to get a new board that's not as good as my old one. The thing I really dislike is dealing with the belts. If I could get a board that's the same or better without belts, that would be something worth buying right away.
Also, I purchased replacement screws but they were too short. So going to hardware store soon to just fix my board and ride it till it dies and then get a new one, hopefully they'll be even better then.
I have a mini 2 er that my 120# son rides and he’s getting over 30 miles with a couple huge hill climbs. He has about 300 miles on it and I’m thrilled he can ride with me for so long. I ride the same route with the hurricane and 90mm @ 180# and I get a little over 50 miles! I bought both boards on the initial release too. He wants a long board now for such long trips, always wanting to switch with me.😂 not so sure I’ll stick with meepo heard the ultra is a downgrade as well.
I broke my collarbone in two places on my mini 2 and currently in the market for another one which will be my 5th e board and I’m ecstatic meepo is the best value board I think I’ll go with the mini 5 my dream board is exway wave that’s when I’m fully healed though gotta live a little dangerously to get that experience under you’re belt
Tynee Mini 3 Pro is the new king of the hill, i have two meepo minis, the hobbywing early mini 2 and another mini 2 with 100mm and Cloud wheels... why is Meepo going backwards... I just ordered a Tynee Explorer with Molicels and the new 80a esc (to upgrade from a gtx), can't wait to ride it! Still love Meepo, but why go backwards, higher profit margins?? Reply
Not sure why they would nerf their own product; it just doesn’t make sense. I have a mini 2s right now and was naturally curious about the new one. If my board ever dies I hope I can find another 2s for a reasonable price.
@MeepoElectricSkateboard what kind of company representation is this? You keep selling the 5 on Amazon with reviews based on the 2? You know the 5 is a turd, but keep selling them and say youll fix it "later"? There is a known issue with the 5 motors falling apart and you're doing nothing for the suckers who bought a 5? You're known to take months to supply warranty parts? There are hundreds of reddit threads on your poor customer service? You claim the reason for poorly performing 5 is "drunk design"? Everyone who bought a 5 should be pissed...if not now, they will regret it "later".
Bro ive got both and the batteries are not identical. So the mini 2 er uses 27500 cells (correct me i cant remember what size those ones are) and the 5 uses 18650 cells. The 27500 cells are supperior so even the battery is better. At least mine use these two different cells
Mini 5 is a downgrade but why harp so much on the bushings? It’s the weakest argument in the video. Unless you don’t know how to change the bushings somehow it’s an easy and cheap fix.
