Something to hold onto when riding seated
🤘🏾🤘🏾🤘🏾

I have 2 skateboards already, a Propel X4S and an Ecomobl24 Pro, both about 2 years old and amazing. I mostly ride on trails but it can be hard to transport them and I even have to drop the back seats to fit them in my car. I love both those boards but they're too big for urban riding so I looked for a smaller, lighter street board and came across the Linnpower. I got the Pro in gear drive knowing I can occasionally ride light gravel and broken pavement and man, this board soaks it up. It's light, fairly compact, has an adjustable wheel base and is crazy quiet. Everything is amazing CNC aluminum and it's almost too pretty to use. Honestly it's such a different and cool experience I might put more miles on my Zephyr than the Propel or the Ecomobl. Shipping was super quick too and I have a tail light on the way for safe riding, until then I'll stick to sidewalks and enjoy the ride.

First off, this board is feels like a dragster! The somewhere between 3500 and 4500 watt power delivery is monstrous. Im So glad I was able to put on bindings because not sure how I would've been able to turn. I got some 9in tire rings and put on 10in tires because the clearance from the geardrive to the ground is about an inch or two. The things that worry me most are; one, FedEx decided to delay the shipping for three days which kind of sucks when you've got a board this cool stuck in a truck three miles away; two, when installing the bigger wheels the tire was rubbing against the geardrive. Now this wouldn't have been such a problem if either spacers could be installed or the truck axles were longer, neither of which i found particular simple to do. Three, geardrive. Now there's a couple things I've found quite interesting to mention. One is that the geardrive gasket tore a while ago and the replacement was really confusing because there seemed to be an infinite number of things to replace on the website. Four, remote. Now this may or may not be a defective remote but for some reason the odometer is very wrong. It said I've gone 251.4 miles, but a month ago it said somthing around ~500. The holder for the bearings broke when I saw inside it and now the thumb wheel feels like it has sand in it. I have fallen on the board, but the remote suffered minor scratches, not major damage. Five, the patented binding holes. This shouldn't happen, I dont think, but while I was riding on a trail the screw and the patented part broke free and is now lost. This may be because either the screw was too tight or lose. The screws that came with the trampa bindings did not fit the patented binding holes but I had some that do fit. This binding situation i just wanted to mention since its probably on my part. Now, the good. One, range. I was able to get 31.5 miles of range on hilly and rough terrain as a 130lbs rider. This was amazing since I could possibly get 40-45 miles of range, which is great. Two, parts. All the materials used on this machine are either aluminum, steel, or wood. No cast trucks or crap bolts that strip. I've had this board for four months now and is still snappy as hell and doesn't sag to much when on low battery. I can't wait until the 5.1 geardrive launches. To sum it up, great board great company and great service.

This gearing change allowed me to go from 62.3 km/h to 77.6 km/h just by replacing this part, and for stability I recommend wide tires.

Well, it's a handle so not much could go wrong. That said, it's well made with a precise fit. No instructions, but you can work it out. That said, here are my tips.

The handle is in 3 pieces: 2 side mounting brackets and a center piece. The brackets are mounted to the gear housing. You will need to remove the existing bolts (see photo). Mount the brackets using the included longer M4x20 bolts (the M4x12 bolts are for attaching the center piece to the brackets). The existing bolts can be removed with the short end of a 3mm Allen key, but the tires get in the way of installing the bracket. You can either remove the wheels or, like me, use a ball-end Allen key which can be used at a slight angle. Do use caution when tightening as a ball-end key is more likely to strip the head.

The CNC machining is quite precise, but you can slightly feel the edges. There are no burrs, but if you're picky about that you can gently use a bit of fine grit sandpaper on the edges.

As you can see from the last photo, the bash guard does allow you to prop the rear end on a Propel folding stand. Before, I was resting the board nose down with the truck hanger on the stand's mounting points.

Very happy with this!

Very fast customer service and great quality board indeed. If you want a great and punchy electric board, this will be a good match for you. And if you got any troubles with the board at all, their customer service is top notch and I highly recommend this board. I have previously used other brands and the quality on this board is just outstanding. I'm writing this review after 6 months of usage and putting 300 my miles on the board.

Perfect truck for on and off road balance solid strong but still carvy and balanced at high speeds i take dirt trails on a daily and heavy city riding so the strength of the truck are perfect for those crazy city potholes 10out of 10 for me

Amazing off road performance no more snapped belts and guaranteed immediate torque for my off road monster 🔥🔥👍🏼

Extremely responsive and playful board with impressive range. I also love how upgradeable it is, allowing you to fine-tune the setup depending on your riding style.
But what really stands out is the performance — it's simply insane. Smooth, powerful, and incredibly fun to ride. Every session is truly exciting and puts a huge smile on my face. Top speed with 13T 77,6 km/h -- 48Mph

It's taken me a while to write this because I've been just so impressed it's been hard to put into words. I've clocked 2000 trouble free kms in 2 months on my ER and think now is a good time. I'm glazing it a bit because I really, really, REALLY like it - but I'm going to try to be as balanced and thorough as possible. Long story short, I'm blown away with every single aspect of this board. It's made my commutes faster and safer, has been a joy for exploring the city and having fun on, zero problems, and is just top notch in every regard. It's what I've ALWAYS wanted in an esk8. So, SO happy I bought it.

I wanted a board I could keep up with moderate speed traffic on, a board with range to get all the way across my giant city and explore without worrying about range, a board I could trust. It's more than delivered on every count. In these two months, I've honestly had some peak life experiences on this board, it's been that good.

Pros:
- Great acceleration, easily out accelerates cars off stop lights. Near motorcycle acceleration from a stop, good rolling punch. I've taken it to 65km/hr.
- Stability. Even going over torn up roads at speed, it's very confidence inspiring. With my current bushings, feels rock solid until near 60km/hr while it's still carvable and nimble.
- Amazing brakes, can confidently go down even the steepest hills without worry that brakes won't be able to handle it, and great in traffic.
- Unbeatable value for specs/quality.
- Range, I've been getting 50km+ on the ER at ~120kg, riding hard on pneumatics in extremely hilly terrain.
- Stellar and flawless build quality.
- Looks SO cool.
- Quieter than other gear drives I've used, seems really solid.
- Customer Support - quick to respond, excellent English, really knows the product and sport, passionate and cares.
- Tires (the ER tires say they are 'racing only' but they work great on rough and broken road surfaces, grass, light moisture - they are amazing grippy general city tires). At 2000kms original tires are still going strong. Haven't had a flat yet.
- Remote isn't fancy, but feels premium with aluminum wheel and is excellent. Zero micro-disconnects so far.
- Genius wheel design allows changing tires with no tools.
- Really like the top mounted charging port, top mounted ESC is clever and unobtrusive.
- Overall ride feel and comfort. Perhaps I liked the feel of my much loved Carbon Zeus Pro a tiny, tiny bit more, but the advantages this has over that are too numerous to count, and...well, my Zeus had frequent issues and is now broken, while this is still riding like new. No other board I've owned even compares in terms of overall feel.

Cons:
- Bushings it ships with are too hard to really be usable; budget another $20 for different bushings. Something like 99a(stock)/95a rear, 92a/90a front (barrels, and just a guess as I experimented from a bag of unmarked bushings I had until I was happy). Of course, dialing in the bushings are something you should do on every board, as the right setup depends on your weight and preference.
- No VESC fine tuning - acceleration/braking curves are perfect for me though.
- No built in lights. I far prefer high end flashlights/head lamps/helmet mounted LED blinkers, find low set board mounted headlights useless. I'm happy they put money into huge battery instead of things like this or VESC.
- Heavy - STRONGLY recommend buying the carry handle. Carts much better upside down.
- Doesn't have any sort of 'trick' truck system like channels etc. The TKPs it has are excellent, though.
- White motors discolor quickly.
- No official IP waterproof rating. However, they told me in chat that it does have very good water ingress protection (and I've ridden in the rain several times). But they officially advise against it and didn't want to IP certify/guarantee it. Note the ESC being on top naturally protects it from puddle splashes.
- Wide turn radius

Note that I had to stretch to write these cons; none are really flaws, just design decisions.

All in all, honestly it's a 10/10. If you're thinking of buying a longboard style esk8, you should look hard at this board, and it should probably be the one you go with. If you go cheaper, you'll likely be disappointed and might have to pay more for parts/maintenance (although other cheaper Linnpowers like the EVO MK-1 look awesome as well). You probably won't get a substantially better experience spending a lot more. This is the sweet spot, sets a new standard in every way, and should be on everyone's shortlist.

Note I haven't really done any off road on it or any jumping; just street riding, although often on really torn up streets.

I bought the rooster off a lady on FB Marketplace selling stickers for wheelie bins. Cut it...

Amazing amazing amazing 🤩
I swap pushing to black tightening back pushing more than front one
Add the 13t gear ⚙️ less and smoother throttle for the one prime
Lower the deck from original set up ( not racing kit )
Now it’s way more stable and easier throttle curve , the board is a piece of Art very comfortable more controlled with no wobble at 60 km/h 😍

Okay so I've been riding eskate for about 3 years, more of a hobby for me. Skated for over ten years in my youth so I got hooked to this!!
But as soon as I started I wanted to be able to go off the beating path from the start, finally I had been searching for the perfect board at a good price, what really got me on board with this board was the easy inner tube change system and this sweet sweet look of the board! Not to mention that 1000$ price tag.

I went on my first ride just about 5 miles, mostly off-road through grass, up grassy hills and a bit in dirt.. just smashed through it with no problem! It was different from what I was use to from the zealot s2 though, so I had to get use to it.. but didn't take long.

The only downside for me was the ride height, I knew this going in so I was not surprised and I'll likely invest in the 9 inch wheels later. Also binding I think will be a list for me!

Easily this is the board I've been wanting and i will never turn back now! Off road boards are the way to go! Handle on road and off road! Can't wait to see what else it can do! Got a list of places to go shred in Tennessee!

So stable and so fast its actually insane. I thought it would be to short for me (im 6ft) but its perfect. 10/10 or 5/5 stars I love this board.

Une qualité et une fiabilité remarquable les gens sont d'une précision perfect et je les recommande vivement.
Le conditionnement de l'emballage est certainement le meilleur de toutes les marques

I bought the One Prime. Sport Plus mode demands respect. Scary amount of power. What's even better than the insane power is how well it handles. Carves great and is very stable at speed. The ext racing slicks are phenomenal. Cannot recommend this board enough if you are an adrenaline junky. Just be careful, the boards like a rattlesnake, you have to respect it. Or it may bite you back. Seriously though, love Linnpower. Just bought an OX while it's on sale for New Years
