So, after 6 boards ranging from the early 250W PU wheeled boards with weak batteries to what I'm about to reference, the Titan is excellence in all regards.
First off- the debate between hub vs Direct drive vs Belt drive-- The Titan is an example of where application perfectly applies to the boards needs. Hub motors on a all-terrain board to me, and many others, make sense. Typically water-resistant, sand/dustproof (almost). the lack of space and unsealed parts you find in a hub motor vs its other options puts it way ahead for upkeep and a 'new rider' looking for a solid investment.
Second - follow that up with the proper wheel size (190mm!). its a great balance of torque / mobility / weight. I live NYC and have worked with a road that goes from glass - like asphalt to a suddenly broken road, if you've been in that situation, its chaos that ends with a crash, a close call with traffic, or damage to the magnets due to a bad impact, DONT HAVE THAT FEAR! this board can take on surface change like nothing I've used -- and I own a 10inch off-road monster with dual shocks (mototec 1600w AT skateboard).
Lastly - and most importantly for consumers these days- this can carry the weight; AND MORE. the torque simply is something i have not witnessed in hub motors on skateboards. this kinda pick-up is seen with electric bikes typically decked out with heavier motors and more dense batteries etc. Be Careful! start slow. this can nearly wheely on full throttle. I have fallen once (my own fault). and felt how much i need to respect these motors. Nothing like it really on market. 9/10. great job boundmotor!
