Specs
Question Ranking
Pros
Pro Good range
One of the best ranges of all the boards, delivering a range of 25KM on a single 2 hour charge.
Pro Powerful 1,200 W brushless motor
The motor on the Magneto is super quiet and powerful at 1,200 W.
Pro UK-based support team
The company is located in London so you know that if you visit them or give them a call you’ll be connected with a native English speaker.
Pro Can handle 20 percent incline
The Magneto can handle steep inclines smoothly.
Pro Good customer service
The company offers very good service, with an engineer available to aid in solving any problems that crop up.
Pro Good build quality
The Magneto features a 1,200 W brushless motor, lithium battery, Canadian maple deck, and gravity cast aluminum trucks.
Pro Fast
The Magneto can reach top speeds of up to 20 mph, which is comparable to most top-range electric boards on the market today.
Pro Can handle large weights
The Magneto has a payload of 107 kg (235 lb), which is quite a lot of weight for an electric board. Of course the higher the weight the lower the performance, but this is true of any electric board.
Pro Affordable
The Magneto is one of the only electric longboards on the market under $600, though shipping will add to the cost. This is especially true if it is to be shipped out of the EU, as there will be customs charges tacked on.
Pro Lightweight
The Magneto Only weighs 6 kg (13 lb), which makes it easy to carry around when not riding.
Pro Durable
The board is reportedly tough, and can take a wipeout without a problem.
Pro Parts and repair are cheap and easy
The Magneto parts are inexpensive and easy to replace. Replacement parts are sold on their site for fair prices making it simple to find and fix anything that wears out or breaks.
Pro New Improved electronics, speed, and braking control
Pro Even power
There are dual motors on the board, allowing for more even power distribution, especially when turning the board (compared to single motor boards)..
Pro High powered motors
The dual motor setup maxes out at 3000 watts.
Pro Big battery capacity
Goes to distances up to twenty one miles when using the street wheels on the board. This will also be dependent on the riders size, but is a safe estimate.
Pro Fast
With the Evolve GT wheels (included), this board can achieve speeds up to 22mph (36km/h). And if you purchase the ABEC 11 97mm FlyWheels, you can go as fast as 25mph (42km/h).
Pro Versatile wheels
You can change your normal 83mm wheels for 7" all-terrain tires, which work with the electric motors as well. You can then skate on grass, dirt etc. The 2in1 board comes with both. The process of changing the wheels should not take more than 5 minutes.
Cons
Con Crappy customer service, wouldn't replace my broken board nor sell me replacement parts
Con Slow braking
To prevent you from being thrown off the board, the brakes will not stop the board suddenly. This can put you in dangerous a position if you ever need to stop on a dime – for example if a car comes out of nowhere.
Con Weak motor
Motor is pretty weak. Can't go up hills. Can't stop you on descent.
Con Flimsy controller
The controller seems a little brittle and may not survive a big wipeout.
Con Overheating issues
When using the GT mode for a longer periods of time (>15min) and really getting the max speed/power out of the board, it might overheat and shut down. It is quite rare though.
Con Not waterproof
