GT production update January 14/ 2022
-
This would be WAY more exciting if my date didn't go from 2/28 to 3/4!!! That, and I'm leaving town on 3/7, so unless it gets here overnight and arrives on 3/5, @lia may be riding her GT before me!
-
@onedangt Oh damn at least you got the accessories. Hope your board comes soon so you can get to try it before leaving.
I wonder if for international orders like mine they'll bundle it rather than ship seperately. -
@lia They may ship at the same time, but will definitely be the OW box and another for the accessories. Still, I don't return home until late March, so you may win! At least my Pint X is arriving tomorrow in Hawaii and I am bringing some aftermarket accessories with me, so that will have to hold me off until I return.

but the email seems to suggest production is finally started and will be shipping in the next few days. I really hope that's true.
what if they meant lunar days?
-
@onedangt Enjoy the PintX then while you cruise around Hawaii :)
I'll be sure to let you know how fun the GT is so you're pumped for the ride when you return~ -
@notsure Or leap days!

Yeah, kinda first world problems here, HAHAAAAAAA!
-
@onedangt Can your check the output voltage on the label on the Hypercharger? I want to verify if it's for 18s. Thanks.
-
@lemur The definition of a power "brick"! (pen for scale)
-
@onedangt Ah, so the GT is 18s. Thanks.
Now, I can't wait to ride it. -
-
@onedangt What is the plastic like on the Bumper? I have been assuming it would be just like the plastic on the XR bumper. But, I would love to be wrong.
-
Got a shipping notification for my rail guards, coming March 7 apparently according to Fedex.
That's a week shipping from CA to UK so assuming my GT ships on the 9th I should expect the board at the earliest (assuming it isn't held at customs) on the 16th. Likely longer since they'll get my package, send me snail mail to ask for import charges then finish delivery a day or 2 after I pay it.

Here's some bumper p*rn for ya! Does that sound weird to anyone else? :D
-
@onedangt Looks good! Now the aftermarket can start tooling up for fenders, bumpers, rail protectors. Tires will be next or if we can fit the XR/Plus motor rim to the GT.
-
@onedangt Thanks, does the plastic feel the same as the XR? Assuming it is the same, I already have two sheets of UHMW plastic to make homemade float plates until there is a 3rd party solution.
I'm also glad to see they got rid of those posts which used to break all the time on the XR bumpers.

Hmmm, I don't have any spare bumpers for my XR as the posts broke on my originals and had to use the extra pair that I got with the XR a while ago, but they do feel quite strong. Would still be nice to have float plates to keep them protected.
-
@biell 100%, those posts are crap and the useless nutserts spin from the factory. I've busted all those posts on 2 sets of bumpers on my XR.
Destroy Boredom!!! by repairing badly built/design from the factory.
-
My rail guards arrived :D
3 days sooner than they should (1 working day)
The rails appear to be the same length however my guards have a bit of a bow to them so they don't sit flush unless the adhesive is used. That or the rails aren't straight D:
Couldn't resist ;)
Got one of those sneaking suspicions that my board will arrive on the 15th because that's the day I'm not at home (Sod's law in full swing). Customs however might come to my rescue and delay it to a day I'm actually in.
-
App has updated and you can see preview images of the GT screen... it's yellow
Also can see some new ride profiles. Apex and Highline. APEX presumably being the Delirium for the GT with the last being custom shaping.
