New Super Fast Charger, Abec-11 Flywheel Pulley Insert, and 10 Mile Slim Lithium Battery

•
ILAN @ Metroboard
4 Amp Fast Charger We now offer an optional super fast 4 Amp Charger for the Metroboard Slim Battery pack, which charges the battery twice as fast as our standard 2 Amp Charger. This results in a charge time of about 2 hours for our 20 mile slim pack, 1.5 hours for our 15 mile slim pack, and just 1 hour for our new 10 mile slim pack. We do however recommend using the 2 Amp charger when you are not in a rush to charge, as slower charging is better for the long term health of the battery.

This machined Aluminum Pulley Insert can be pressed into the hub of an off-the-shelf Abec-11 Flywheel with a diameter of 76 mm, 83 mm, 90 mm, or 97 mm, turning it into a Metroboard Outrunner Compatible Drive Wheel.

New 10 Mile Range Slim Pack

•
ILAN @ Metroboard
Coming soon, our new 10 mile slim pack, weighing in at just 1.16 kg (2.55 lbs). This will enable us to build with a slim pack on our shorter boards (even our 29″ mini). The minimum wheelbase is about 19″ to fit this pack. The only board it won’t fit on is our 32″ shortboard which has only a 14.5″ wheelbase. It will be housed in a slim aluminum battery box similar to the one on our longboard, but just shorter in length. This pack will enable us to make Metroboards as light as 13.5 lbs! Should be available within 1 month! Interested? Email Us for more info.

First Preorder Metroboard Slim Electric Longboards started shipping this week!

•
ILAN @ Metroboard
This week we started shipping our first preorder Metroboard Slim Electric Longboards! The weather this week was very wet in the Portland, Oregon, area where we build them, but we managed to squeeze in a few test rides during some short dry spells. The first few boards take quite a bit longer to build as we fine tune the manufacturing process, but we are very excited to finally get this product into our customers hands (and feet)! We appreciate our customers’ patience as we ramp up production. We think you will be very pleased with the end result!

ILAN @ Metroboard
The New Metroboard Slim Electric Longboard is Here! For Fall 2014 we are incredibly excited to release the Metroboard Slim, Our New Electric Skateboard. We’ve gone to great lengths to redesign the Metroboard Slim from the ground up, resulting in a board that is more portable, fun, and stylish, than ever before. The Metroboard Slim was Developed over the past two years and is backed by eleven years of Experience in the Electric Skateboard industry. Watch The Metroboard Slim Electric Longboard on the Move   We’ve always sought to create a motorized skateboard that handles like a traditional Skateboard . Unlike other boards on the market that are heavy, bulky, and hard to maneuver, the Metroboard Slim looks and rides like a traditional Longboard, with great Responsiveness and the added Thrill of Carving without pushing. Our goal was to make the Ultimate Carving Machine, and we are more than pleased with the end result!   A lot of thought went…
