@skyman88 Thanks, good point! I didn't even consider the charge time. 20mins vs 120mins is a huge difference. hmmmm. You got me thinking now.. Used may not be such a bad idea.

Good point! Trust me, I’ve been watching Craigslist and Facebook like a hawk. I live in the upper IL lower WI area and I know of every board that is posted used. Let me tell you what stops me from buying used. I just got back from a bike ride with my 9 year old daughter who wants a pint as much as I do. We rode around for 5 miles and hit a top speed of 15.4mph. I have a Garmin watch so I can log everything. We had a blast and really got to spend some quality time just cruising and chatting. 15mph is fast enough to just cruise and 6-8 miles is the perfect distance to cruise the town with my kids. I have two kids so I’d be looking at buying 3 one wheels for us all to ride together. Resale value is just too high to justify not buying pints. FM really made a smart move with the pints price point. Why would anyone buy a used + for $1000 when they can buy a brand new pint for $950???? I’m just hoping FM gets caught up in production soon so I can place my order. I totally understand though. With 40 or so employees you can only do so much. I’m really looking forward to floating around town with my kids. Riding bikes together is fun, one wheeling together is going to be epic and something we’ll never forget. Side note, 9 year old girl and 11 year old boy. Both athletic and have experience on skateboards. I think they will take to the One Wheel like fish in water.

Thanks! Instead of buying the pint now and waiting 2 or 3 months to get it I’m just going to keep saving money until they get caught up with orders. By then I’ll be able to see some real world reviews on the pint, plus by then I should have enough for an XR if those real world reviews don’t look so good. I don’t plan on traveling more than 6 miles at a time so the pint looks perfect for me so I’m really hoping the reviews are good. However, if not I know the XR is a winner for sure. It’s a win win in my mind.

Can anyone tell me how long it took for XR’s to start shipping a few days after an order was placed? Seems like the pint preorders are working their way into August as of now. I’m curious how long it took FM to catch up when the XR was on preorder?

Looks like they're giving away a New Pint when they hit a 1000 subscribers on youtube. Just wanted to give everyone a heads up.
