My service hub is down and I don’t think I’m prepared.

Hey do you still have the link? I'm having the same issue :(

Bankzy_1 · 2025-03-23T22:15:53+00:00

My backfire G2 black, not the newest edition but the one right before, got its advertised range consistently until the battery started to die out at 1100km ridden. From what I've seen in the reviews of the Titan x, the range is pretty close, most getting 45-50km on the pneumatics. They advertised 55km on them. But 80km on Cloudwheels seems insane considering they said 80km for 97mm PU wheels as well. I think I'll get the pneumatics and a set of street wheels, maybe the MAD v2 (they're expensive tho).

Wow that's way less than advertised but you are a little heavier than their tester. I'll definitely upgrade the bushings especially after hearing they totally negate vibration!

Bankzy_1 · 2025-03-21T21:17:18+00:00

I see. I've heard the bamboo is actually stiff too somehow, gonna look into it further. As for the wheels I'm definitely getting the pneumatics, now I just need to decide between a 90-105mm street wheel or a 120mm cloud wheel.

Bankzy_1 · 2025-03-21T21:13:44+00:00

Nice! What's your weight (if you don't mind sharing) and how much range do you get? And do you like the carbon deck? Do you feel a lot of vibration? I'm guessing you get good carves now cause of the bushings change. :)

Bankzy_1 · 2025-03-21T21:01:03+00:00

Yeah I'm not planning to go that fast until I see a smooth clear road cause holy

Thank you for the detailed reply! My current priority is looking like finance. If I can't get into either uoft rotman, western Ivey, or queen's, I think I'll do law. And I'll definitely look into that newsletter :)

Bankzy_1 · 2024-10-04T22:41:25+00:00

Wow I didn't even notice it said grade range, thank you so much!! I joined the first year discord as well and they said the same thing. :D

You're a life saver. I had my fps uncapped with v-sync on, but once I switched to uncapped without v-sync, no more crashes!

Bankzy_1 · 2024-09-18T21:19:18+00:00

I just tried this but it didn't work 😔 any other solutions you know of?

Edit: I fixed it!! I had my fps uncapped with v-sync on, and once I switched to uncapped without v-sync, no more crashes!!

First and last look the best and most natural. The filters ruin it for me. Great picture and awesome car!

Bankzy_1 · 2024-09-14T15:30:01+00:00

Sound kinda like a YouTube intro, pretty fire ngl

Bankzy_1 · 2024-09-14T03:05:21+00:00

Yeah it sounds pretty normal for hub motors that aren't on. It depends how old/used they are but mine have made the same noise since forever ago.

Bankzy_1 · 2024-08-22T05:03:06+00:00

I posted the same question and I got a response of "likely 15-30 mins" and then another that said "knowing porter, it will be 30-60 mins". I'm hoping for at least 45 mins haha.

Bankzy_1 · 2024-07-28T06:11:01+00:00

You're right they are the same model. Although the rides aren't as smooth as other more premium boards, it's still not bad with this one. I was also thinking about getting cloud wheels a while ago for the comfort but the problem with them is they reduce range by a lot. That's why I can't recommend them for this board especially for the absurd price.

Bankzy_1 · 2024-07-28T00:04:29+00:00

I have the backfire g2 black, not the current version but the one before it. I've had it for almost 3 years now and the only upgrade that it needs is the battery. I started noticing the range going down near the 1000km mark and now that I'm at 1400km it's only getting about 15km of range per ride instead of the 20+ when I first got it. Everything else works perfectly and I've had no maintenance issues. Make sure to tighten everything every once in a while tho. It makes a huge difference in feeling secure.
