How would you compare it to the Exway Flex? Think I‘ll buy one of these two, but actually am not sure wich one is the bette option for me. I live in an area with rather bumpy roads and some steep roads. Dont know if the flex would help absorbe the bumps or just bounce me of the board. Any preferences? Thx And also I dont know if the embedded battery is a plus or rather not. I guess both boards have a pretty impressive amount of power and range, nothing that makes me decide for one or the other. And then there is the question with belt /riot vs direct drive. Heard that the direct-driven boards dont feel so nice while cruising and also are a little less stable on bumps, is that right? On the other hand the riot versions often are called out for being pretty loud. I dont want to annoy anybody, but think it could be somewhat usefull to be heard to people know that I will/want pass them. Would you say the roit version is rather on the annoying side or useful? Thx!

Mode 2, so around 20kmh is around the speed you'd be longboarding at when pushing with your own leg. It's great to use as a hybrid mode or superhuman range extending mode (however much you can do + 30km electric)

Hi, I do have a personal experience with local reseller in the Czech Republic (their repair service center for EU is as well located here). I've ordered the Exway Flex last spring and I got the board within 24 hours. I got the hub version and my left motor was making weird noises + one scew came out and couldn't be screwed back in. So I used the 2 year warranty (advantage of buying from local resellers = they need to obey local laws). Exway reseller Stablecam accepted my warranty claim and my board came back within a week with new back truck with new motors mounted in place. I couldn't tell how noisy my motors were after 1100 km, until I could here the fresh new motors sound. Huuuge difference - perhaps a hub motors maintenance video would be helpful as I couldn't find any in the internet (just belt drives everywhere). Now I'm waiting for my remote to come back as the wheel stopped working 🙂 So far great customer experience!

I had the OG X1 and I thought it was perfect in terms of size and weight. I got the X1 max for the range but it’s heavier and not as nimble or portable. Also I don’t know why they bothered with a USB C remote when you have to have a usb A to USB C in order to charge it. It literally does not work connected from another USB C. At the end of the day they pay you to say nice things about their product. I wish the reviews were a bit more critical.

I prefer a broader standing platform, also drop trough or drop mounted trucks for better carving. Exway probably has it's reasons but I wonder about boards like Bustin Sportster Hybrid because it looks and probably feels more like an actual longboard.

Thanks for this complete review

nice review!! I like the places you ride. looks cool. (SH I guess)

premium power patent pending. you sneaky bastard lmao. I want that shirt

This looks like a really compelling board to get! Now I can’t wait for someone to get it in my region so I can try it!

Hey Daniel! Why do you prefer stiff boards? Like you, I owned both types, and right now my main board is a very stiff one, and I find myself missing the feeling of my old boosted v1, especially on the bad roads I have here. Looking at your video, your roads or commute aren't that smooth either, so that's why I'm surprised that you'd pick this as your only board. Is it because you like to go very fast and the rigid stability helps? Would you still take the X1 max if it was the hub version? Cheers, and thanks for the great videos.

@DanielKwan

2 жыл бұрын

Stiff boards feel more “precise” to me. I think the roads I ride on are pretty smooth, most of them anyway. But not smooth enough that I’d use hub motors on my main board.

love those intros always reminds me of anime X1 Max looks so sleek 😍

0:54 Return of the traditional unboxing Kimono!

Velcro holster clip is hilarious!

This board is a bit disappointing in range when you consider a short board like the Tynee Mini which has an advertised 35km with a 313wh battery, which is lighter in weight (16.4) and more portable. I hope on the next iteration of the Exway X1 they bump up the range to at least 15 miles, in the real range test and not using their garbage test which does not accurately measure the range

Agree. 105mm cloudwheels not a good idea. I already had purchased them, and it was my first time on them. I thought 'wow! this is amazing, these really do live up to the hype!" that was right before I was thrown off the board from wheelbite ....... I might try spacers under the trucks, but .... I dunno. Lower deck height is obviously better.

I have the X1 Pro board with cloud wheels and honestly I’m just careful on not doing tight turns so I don’t have wheel bite. It feels so much better with them on and goes faster but I’m just mindful of not making too tight of a turn

Same! I love the X1 line up and I would keep my X1 Pro out of all my boards

I wonder if the extra length means that tall people can drag the board by the front truck without scraping the kick tail on the ground

Was waiting for this review. Disappointed that there's still potentially a wheel bite issue using cloud wheels. I assumed the redesign of board to have a bit of flare near the wheels had been done to specifically address that. Been hoping for awhile that someone would make rubber wheels to fit the X1 too...

I'm currently searching for eboards that are similar to the exway x1 max in terms of the discreet look with the motors and battery hidden inside the board, if there are any other products like this please do lmk

FYI the remote now has usb-c port. At least the one I receive with my board.

Do you know anything about Exway's shipping time? I ordered the Wave about a week ago and I have not heard anything back.

There are countries where de e-board use is not allowed?

Riot or Belt drive, which is better if you don’t want to swap wheels?

Do a drag race with the exway flex. I wonder what the performance difference is consider they both use riot v2 and the same trucks.

Oooh do a video on your dh and noram unpowered boards~!

4:40 5.4ah battery capacity, nice!

I think the new cloud hub motor wheels would improve comfort a lot, can you review them on it?

Personally, I'm eager for a future where boards can go 60+kmph because I live in a hilly area and having the extra power up hills would be nice. However, in your opinion do you think manufacturers will refrain from giving more power to boards for safety or regulations?

@DanielKwan

3 жыл бұрын

For hills what you want is torque, because higher top speed doesn’t mean higher torque. I think price is what’s holding back manufacturers, not safety. If they can build a more powerful board without raising the price, I think they would. The other thing is failure rates. The mass production brands need to keep failure rates lower than the small quantity brands, and one way to do that is to keep the performance more conservative.

Any recommendations on gear? Messenger bags, helmets, gloves, helmet light mounts, etc?

Does the max have all the bells & whistles that were introduced in the flex. Ie, the self- discharge to 70% charge for long term storage, more accurate state of charge? I'm sad that they moved away from the mag-safe charge port...

Is it still loud like the pro?

When my flex had issues, exway paid for the return. It goes to California. Not sure what they do with it after I returned it.

Depends if you prefer a stiff deck or flexy deck and your range requirements. They’re both loud enough to be noticeable by pedestrians you’re passing. But if you need to be discreet, the Exway is definitely more discreet. Might even be worth considering the hub motor version.

I love your videos and they greatly helped in my decision for my first (and most likely only) eskateboard. Since I'm commenting on this video, you're correct to assume I got the X1 Max. After doing some research and riding for about a week, there are a lot of things I learned and figured out through personal experience and online help. However, there are two aspects I still have a good amount of trouble about. My first problem are bearings, I understand it helps (not a game changer but good) but I'm not sure how it would work with hub motors. Do hub motor wheels even have bearings? Then would I only change the bearings on the nonmotor wheels? My other issue is sort of trying to figure out my bushing preference, so I want to ask for your preference on bushings. What combination do you prefer for standard, 30-40 kmh, cruising and carving? Barrel/barrel, barrel/cone, etc. (edit) I completely forgot about this issue, two of the nuts/bolts spins with the screw and the screw head isn't visible at the top of the board. Is it safe for me to remove part of the grip tape and then reapply it, or are the screws not even visible after removing the grip tape? I used two pliers and scratched them up, only doing them once to get my shredlight mounts on the board, but it would be nice to know how I should go around this. In addition I'm slightly under 54kg, is it normal for the board to be very unstable when reaching above 24 kmh? It's with the stock bushings and I adjusted all sorts of combinations based off your video. (edit) I really appreciate your videos, insanely informative. Keep up the amazing work :D.

Great review, though would've enjoyed more of a comparison with predecessor (particularly in regards to trucks). When the X1pro came out, it felt like there was genuine hype within the community, especially with the innovation of swappable drive trains. With the Max on the other hand, it just don't feel inspired nor given much upgrades. The range for instance, is not a huge improvement. I know it's not your fault, but do me a favour and have a word with the good folks at Exway. We deserve a new 'Pro' board, with next gen innovations.
