I’ve had zero issues with this board and have really enjoyed the summer I rode it. However the following summer I decided to build a mountain bike and this hasn’t really seen use since so I would like to sell. This board has tons of torque on tap, but it is very controllable. As you can see from the photos of the lifetime stats on the DavegaX I have gone as fast as 42MPH on this board and it still had some legs left, but I didn’t feel comfortable going beyond that. This board really is a monster when it comes to speed and get up and go. I don’t believe I have ever seen another “Autobiography” Prototipo deck anywhere. The deck was purchased direct from Alex @ Lacroix.
I am located in Duluth, Minnesota and willing to meet a buyer as far away as Minneapolis. I’m not sure how much it would cost to ship, but I am certainly willing to do so. We can work out those details should you be interested and not close enough for a face to face transaction.
Price: SOLD
To be clear, I will ship if necessary.
Considering the quality of components used, the low miles, and all of the spares that are included I believe this is a fair price. If I’m on the high side, lets talk and figure it out- this board deserves to be out on pavement again instead of hanging in my office.
EDIT
Some history of the board:
Purchased parts and completed assembly August 2019, rode it for a couple months before the snow flew. Board has always been stored in my basement which is usually 63 degrees or so. I always tried to keep the batteries around 40% of capacity during storage. I rode it through the summer of 2020 starting around May. I always brought the board in when I wasn’t riding it. It again went into storage through the winter starting around September. Again, still in my basement, and again with the cells around 40% of capacity. Spring of 2021 I built a mountain bike and I didn’t ride the board at all. I was still careful to check the battery level on a regular basis, again aiming for about 40% charge.
That’s not to say it was a perfect 40% all the time, but it was certainly not permitted to fully discharge or sit fully charged. I did everything I could to keep the pack in good shape, and I believe I have succeeded in that.
Aside from having some issues with a motor can on one of the motors (which was warrantied), it has never been rebuilt. When I had the motor can issue (one of the bolts that secured the motor shaft had an issue) I bought a spare motor just in case it happened again. I am rather anal retentive and frequently disassembled the wheels/motors for cleaning and relube of the bearings if needed. I was quite diligent on keeping everything from belt tension to overall cleanliness at a high standard. I even cleaned the wheel spokes and blew out the motors with compressed air. That’s not me blowing smoke either, that’s just how I prefer to keep my things. If dirt/dust is permitted to stick around it just causes wear.
