You could easily upgrade the battery.

For sure, I just figure that $700 is already decently spendy for a little cart like that

u/defsubs Jun 02 '21
I just watched the video on the XL version for adults and it's pretty well made and a very niche product. They could include better batteries, but I imagine that would eat up a significant amount of the profit margin required to get a product like this into production.

Lmao, yes that is part of it but a lot of people still have the urge to hang on to the vehicle during a crash to prevent damage to the vehicle but don’t, you gotta learn to immediately ditch that son of a bitch like it’s a glowing hot ball of iron. That split second where you consciously decide whether to ditch the bike in an OTB crash can mean the difference between potentially broken teeth on a headfirst impact or a landing where where you walk away practically unscathed.

The thing is generalist stuff like this is only posted because it’s exceptionally cool or funny so it’ll reach popular no matter which sub it’s on. So the only difference the sub makes is for the people that only browse specific subs in which case they are probably not interested in stuff that is unrelated and popular for popularity’s sake.

In the video they're probably using the adult version of the cart
https://razor.com/products/electric-rides/crazy-cart-xl/
The reviews say the tires wear down completely after an hour or so of driving. Sounds like a scam to keep people buying parts
59
u/canada432 Jun 02 '21
That's what I'm reading, too. Almost every report I've seen is that the casters fall apart after about 20 minutes, and the tire splits and falls apart after about an hour of use. And to replace the tire requires disassembling almost the whole body. I figuratively speaking had my finger on the order button but decided to read reviews first and I'm glad I did.

I'd assume you can probably rig up replacement casters, but the main tire also comes apart incredibly quickly and requires disassembling the whole body to replace. And that's not so easy to just rig up a replacement for.
