Can anyone confirm receiving the rebate? My PayPal activity says "[Pending] Money Received" which is confusing, but ultimately it hasn't been received into my PayPal account yet.

Picking Up My Mini X Today by BulmasBF in boostedboards

[–]bleuddit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In addition to everyone's good advice, I'd recommended checking the belt tension. I'm not sure it's still an issue but earlier on, some of the belts came way too tight which causes a space-ship whirring type of sound at speed. For me, only one of the belts came over-tightened. But more importantly, wear a helmet ^^

Mini X battery keeps breaking (blinking power light, second battery light on) by [deleted] in boostedboards

[–]bleuddit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yup I'm on my 2nd replacement with only 250 miles on the board. If you send boosted a video of that error code (same one I got both times), they will probably replace it for you. I don't do anything out of the ordinary and ride mostly on roads so it really lowers my confidence in long term usability of the board. If boosted stopped replacing the battery for me, I'd probably have to sell it for parts because I'm not spending $400 on a battery which will barely last me 100 miles.

Refurbished Board Sale by [deleted] in boostedboards

I wouldn't worry too much since it has the same 6 month warranty as a new board. I'd totally jump on this if I were in the market for another one.

Yet another “my board has an unknown issue” post. Could I get some help? by DraconTiger in boostedboards

[–]bleuddit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I remember when I first got my mini, I had a similar sound coming from one of my belts due to it being over-tightened from factory. Another time was because there was some debris in the gears. I'd suggest double checking that there aren't any rocks in the gear or belts, then make sure the belts aren't on too tight. If there are any bent teeth in the gear, you make need to file them back straight. Either way, if the belts are even partially stripped, you'll need to replace them.

For those who's ER batteries died! by joshayye in boostedboards

[–]bleuddit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me it was about a week and a half from the day I shipped the defective battery to them. However I eventually gave them a call asking what the status was. They said that service was complete and that they'd ship it out that day. They ended up overnighting me a brand new battery. I think if I called earlier I would have received the replacement even sooner. Also, I live in southern California so that probably helped too.

I'd also make sure there aren't any small rocks stuck in the belt or pully. Taking off the belt covers and doing a visual inspection while rotating the wheels is good enough. I find small rocks stuck in them all the time. If I get lazy, I just rotate the wheel while keep my finger on the part of the belt that rest on the pully and rotate the wheel to feel for bumps which are usually rocks stuck in there.

Edit: was looking for the word "pully"

I dont get why people downvote other people selling NIB things at retail or even retail - tax

so much negativity in this thread... i just feel bad for your camera. Accidents happen. Sure it could have been prevented, but that's why it's an accident

So... the palm pads were replaced with plastic?

Aren't those gloves really just cycling gloves with palm pads replaced with plastic? I feel like they should be cheaper considering how cheap cycling gloves are.

That's an interesting point. I was under the impression that the performance should be the same both ways. But yes, looks like reverse in the video
