Rider notes
My daily driver.
Pros
Fun and nimble for a double drop. Handles marginal pavement well. Breaks traction very easily.
Cons
Lively at pushing speed, but gets twitchy over about 35 kph/20 mph. Better suited for flatter terrain.
Why it works
Can be levered up with one foot, fits well on transit and in grocery shopping carts, and it's stable when leaned up against a wall (unless the floor's slick). All of which make it great for transportation skating.
What I would change
Almost nothing. I did paint a couple coats of clear polyurethane on the bottom and rails of the deck. We'll see if that improves its water resistance over time.
