There must surely be some important subtleties you’re missing out from your story because expecting to be entitled to free money from a business just because of the physical distance between the two of you would obviously be setting yourself up for some disappointment.

The irony is that this story in this thread is probably a quite effective promotion.

Why would you get a discount?

If he’s in the same city, and has a pick up option? He doesn’t have to pay (so much) for shipping.

Try living on the other side of the world…(from everywhere).

Hey,

The Barrel shows 6389 motors on the main list of all boards but the detailed specs say 6374. That’s a big difference can you clarify which is correct and let your web guys know?


Thanks

Also the conversion to kms for the range is different in those 2 screenshots as well, but at lease the miles match!

Anyone know if it’s the 6374’s or 6389’s? Genuinely considering this as an option to upgrade my commute board

Look like 6374s

Definitely 74’s. They will have plenty of power with that battery at 16/72 gearing

Were their decks ever made by Zenit longboards? I know that there was community speculation about that, but I thought that LaCroix said nah when asked about it.

I think it was speculation based on the apparent quality, veneer/CF look, and geographic proximity. Not sure it was ever confirmed or denied officially.

They were, but what I’m getting at is that the pictures of the barrel look like A thicker and different construction than the proto

Has anyone actually received one yet? Haven’t looked into it much but concerned this might not live up to the hype of some of the better Chinese competitors.
