I just wanna know why it says LINNPOWER
What do you have to say for yourself @Linny ?
What about LinnPower? That’s where they originated
Is LinnPower a subsidiary of Newbee?
Lin stole the 4gs design from newbee.
I get kinda tired of the drama. The design is definitely ‘inspired’ but it’s certainly not a straight rip.
https://www.reddit.com/r/ElectricSkateboarding/comments/pkz9h3/surprised_no_one_has_shared_this_yet_meepo_is/ I guess these have been cooking for a while?
Yeah hard to say without knowing the full story
In any case, they look interesting, and the fact of the matter is since it’s compatible with Meepo Hurricane off the bat, it’s instantly going to sell more
Yep - I found the Linnpower account and tubeless wheels like 4 or 5 months ago
It wasn’t me man…
That’s exactly what I would say if somebody was trying to pin a “stolen” design on me
I’m not convinced.
I got nothing to prove to you ur just jealous!!!
From what Bill tells me, there isn’t much to be worried about
I came across these somehow on IG back in July. linnpowerstore. Im guessing meepo is hiring them to design/make them? Probably did their cyclone wheels too.
Dunno about the OG but they did do the tubeless
I know super beast had issues with their gears failing and seizing up. I kinda have a feeling with how meepo is low budget it’ll probably fail a bunch too. Along with what everyone else says, its probably loud af too
NgotoriousTx
its probably loud af too
If it’s a similar 4-gear design like the Newbee drive (which is quiet af) then it’s probably actually not that loud. However as much as I am loving my gear drive, gears failing and seizing scares the shit out of me and I’m definitely suspect of a gear drive that might not have had the best testing or QC.
Some pictures is identical, this the third times my design get cloned…
Look at the date…the prototype 4GS design is from 1/19/2021
The DKP drives… vs flipsky drive
First post from sep…2019
And our prototype truck…VS flipsky truck.
Linn is start working for meepo before the hurricane launched.
Cause its a render not a photo most likely. Not saying thats the case here but the typical black background generally screams render.
straightcut and helical sound very different, couple with 2 extra idle gear, it could amplify the sound by quite a lot
