Onewheel GT Review: Some Hate, But Many Love the Big Changes 

/w tu. W ra iyi tu ttiuu try tt try o it Rhea rea try tr

The real question is why do people take it? You can just not buy the board and tell them what you think with your wallet it's a lot louder than your complaining. People that buy GTs are just people that are slaves to FM. Want to modify something you own and the law says you have the right to sorry FM tells you what to do and you do it because you bought a GT. If people keep buying GT's FM will keep doing what they've been doing. I'm just glad I don't have to be a slave like all the other FM GT rider's. I have principal's GT owner's have few. It's easy to talk it's harder to walk. But now they have aftermarket faster when will hyper cores that are about to be put into production. A little faster than the GT and XR core but fully unlocked. I'll put my money where my mouth is and I'll prove my principles by my actions I won't be buying a GT I will be buying a fully aftermarket produced "renegade one wheel". That way all the new GT/FM owners can get treated worse than Apple customers. An the rest of us with self-respect will build our own renegade OWs now all the one wheel can be built completely from aftermarket components from the ground up. The only thing Future motion had on us was our loyalty but they betrayed that first. All FM's efforts to restrict ownership of your board will be for not. But GT owners can't replace any electrical component so they are fucked. Much like the cattle they are.

@@anarex0929someone is big mad

What did the GT folks you ride with have to say? Did they like the GT?

its common to hear more negativity online about products. People that have no issues are less likely to come online and say its working fine, they will just be out enjoying it. My big issues are deciding if I want to support a company that has this attitude. I get that they are partly doing it to limit legal action against them but they should have authorized service centers around the world then. I live in NZ, FM will not sell to NZ because its too difficult to manage servicing. they have even threatened stores that were shipping to NZ. They also end up being close to $4k.

@@freshlycharged Most people liked everything other than the height and the tire so once a lower rails kit and other tires are available I think everyone is going to be happy (until the batteries start to go).

@@freshlycharged i have a GT and absolutely love it so far. i'm about 40 miles in. been a fan of your channel ever since i started onewheeling and have tried the pint, XR & currently own the PX & the GT. my all time top speed on the XR was 17.8 and i actually just hit 20.2 mph today without even really trying. kinda crazy how strong it is.

I was going to buy a GT until i heard about the bricking issue if the battery is disconnected. FM have just killed pretty much all their sales outside the US.

Watch my last few videos and you’ll see that it’s been cold in Colorado. So nice to get away to somewhere warm!

@@freshlycharged Seeing shorts in the first few seconds was a hard tell.

Mr. Mario! Appreciate the support! Hope your GT is treating you well!

@@freshlycharged So far so good. 🙏

Feels more stable? The tire is much more round.

And I’d love to see you on a Onewheel!

@@freshlycharged I'm making a video on it as we speak. Filming done. Editing now

@@GingerOnWheels 😍

Thanks so much! 😊

Didn’t travel with it. I rented it on the island.

Don’t let him fool you! He’s super cute, but he is mischievous! 😅

I live near the beach but don't take mine on sand. I heard it can quickly and easily mess up the bearings which would require shipping it back. Sand destroys everything eventually.

The low pitched growl is the sound of the motor.

@@TheBoardGarage Even in TFL videos, all I heard is the motor noise. Do you hear the beep? It's possible that it's there but just out of my hearing range, I'm old😁

@@oldretireddude I did hear it, yes. I also just did a rock back and forth on my own board and it did beep. It's pretty low though.

It’s a very subtle beep that even the growl of the motor will obscure it.

@@freshlycharged Wow, wondering Hawaii on a GT. How cool is that?

Just about all PEVs struggle with soft sand.

@@freshlycharged and what about trails that are mostly dirt and sticks? Like a hiking trail

Geeze😵‍💫

@@CharlieRollin Should be fine on most hiking trails. Mostly skill dependent, especially if there are a lot of rocks and roots.

That’s my problem, when I get a GT I won’t even be able to hit max range 😂

I currently own a Pint and my favorite cruising speed is around 15 mph, but that means my lead leg is constantly getting a quad workout since I'm 210lbs and I'm at the limit of my boards speed. I'm wanting to get the GT once more miles are put on the ones already out there and the quirks can get worked out. I really just want to cruise at 20mph without my right quad being completely burned after fighting pushback for 6+ miles. Honestly, I wish a could find a low mileage XR with added battery capacity, but those are getting to be unicorns these days. Keep floating, my friend!

The GT opens up a whole new world! You got lucky with your mag handle!

🤙

I did order one. It’s sitting in its box waiting for me to return home from this trip.

Thanks for visiting!

Sorry unko, but Kimo needs to ride and film!

Not like you can afford one, so why complain?

@@LexxD3 Are you sure? :D :D

@@SmallWorldBigThings The rule of internets is this: If you are being a big crybaby about something, you are probably mad you can't have it. You are being exactly that, so... stick to your XR :)

@RU-vidr So stick to your rule and your GT. You will not buy XR anymore, and the next board from FM will have blocked even more options and added a subscription plan to ride it. Good luck with your attitude!

I’m happy to be riding Onewheel again!

Do it!

I like the feel of the treaded even on roads and it gives you the option for trails later if you choose.

I've only ever rode my gt and I have the treaded tire. I have nothing to compare it to but I love it. Only been on roads so far tho. I havnt had the courage yet to send it off road but I figured I would future proof it for when I get bold enough.

Obey. Your individuality will be harvested.

I think the GT will win you over. The range alone is amazing. Go for a long ride and tell me what you think.

Thanks Laura! Great to hear from you! Will you be getting a GT?

@@freshlycharged we are undecided at this point but we’d love to try one out on the beach! 🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊😎

What do you mean by bricked? It just quit on you?

@@west9046 most of the time pressing the power button does nothing, about 10% of the time the light bar flashes green once and it does not turn on

Thanks for the support!

Sadly I must leave paradise this weekend. Hopefully next time!

@@freshlycharged hopefully next time your here, would love to ride with ya.👍🏽🖖🏾🤙🏾

It's a really bad look, I hope they reconsider.

Enjoy it! Have a musubi for me!

Mine has ghosted twice and it was when I was barely moving and trying to stop. If my feet slipped at the same time off the board then it would do it. Now that I have more experience, stopping and dismounting is much easier and I've had no issues. It's like the board got confused when both feet evenly slipped off the side at the same time.
