A Sunday ride the other week

Never thought they would do it but they did!!

My GT is hopefully getting a rebuild when the parts finally get here.
Due to the massive response TFL got to their sale, orders are taking over a week to ship rather than next working day.
so I will have to wait then another week or so before they arrive, never mind I have patience it will be awesome when it's done.

@lia NGL every time they announced a new board I wanted them to announce an updated XR, 3rd time lucky!!
From what I gather it's GT but with a different frame and smaller battery pack.
The footpads from the tfl video when they were zooming in look like GT footpads
the old bumpers I will guess won't fit as its a different battery box and controller enclosure.

@lia I am gonna want one too, I gave in and got a GT in May, I thought a new XR was just a dream and I didn't like the GT when it came out I love mine now though and don't regret it and still have and use my original XR and am not Mr Moneybags to be able to afford another new Onewheel.
Maybe a year or 2 down the line though........

welcome to the community dude I hope you have many long, fun rides on your new board and that it puts a smile on your face just like it does on ours.

Looks so good!!
Onewheel needs a super brain like yours.

@biell it's moss from what I remember I took it a few weeks ago and thank's very much :-)

@loaffette they seem more in the bodhi rails come lightning rails config than say wtf rails

Also Ricky Glaser got one and Bodhi comfirmed gradient tracking

I have to add another vote for the Enduro from TFL for the pint the pint enduro is a really nice replacement I had it when I had my pint X and I really loved it.

I have noticed the power outlet is not in the same place as the original XR and is not center to the rail.
In the new vid Kyle did say it was new bumpers but same footpads as GT

Are you still rocking the lowboy foot pads?
Thinking about swapping mine out as I get activation issues sometimes and its super annoying and I would prefer a more mellow concave too.

So I have had a GT for a while and I have noticed like people say the GT is higher
off the ground also with the added weight it makes the ride different.
The XR feels so much lighter to ride now when I go back and ride that and also I notice how
lower to the ground I am and how going over bumps feels different dare I say easier.
Whats peoples opinions on the various GT rails out there?
Do they improve the ride feel?
Is there a set of rails that people would hands down recommend?
Would love to hear peoples thoughts.

@lia oh wow that's great I will have to take a look, it has been happening but not as much.
Thanks for letting me know.

@lia wonder if they will do the super cheap price again be definitely worth a look.
I have got used to the GT ride I just wondered if I was missing out as I see a lot of riders riding other rails and was wondering what they felt like and the benefits.
Like you said the wtf's give you the lowered ride which you like.
I have seen quite a few riding dub tails as well which you don't have to worry about tilt adjustment with.

@lia what tyre were you thinking of putting on it if you did get one?
