Real talk, the only reason the Raptor 2 was remotely interesting was because for a brief second it was the only production board that could hit 30mph, and it looked cool and well built, three months and several production problems and many shredded wheels later it all started unraveling.

Let’s assume I would like to buy a new set of trucks&wheels: DD or hub, semi AT, not pneumatic. Which ones would you advise that have a similar insane acceleration and preferably more than 45km/h?
Sorry haters but the best option is still the TB direct drive for retrofitting, other than that your not going to going to find many options if it’s speed your after for the exact same reason the original drives failed, to expensive and still no good design for dealing with heat at that scale.

I do agree the quality of these boards are pretty shit but I wouldn’t say 1 time use. If you avoid wet riding and don’t over discharge. It’ll last you a bit.
Also good for parts

Yeah I think my worry would be more the thane, once it flies off and you break your neck it’s hard to replace

The only good Raptor was the Raptor 1, mine is still going after close to 10000 km. We had a Raptor 2 in the lab and I was curious to see the “precision” trucks with my own eyes. We removed the hanger from the baseplate, and plonk the kingpin fell out. Precision as hell … very disappointing first impression …

There’s some irony in that, OG Raptor being better than the “upgrade”.
