Beyond devastating to see range was not improved for the stoke as that is the specification that needs it the most. Changing to modern 21700 cells would have done it but it sounds like you chose to stick with 18650's in 2022.
@@tjfsurf yeah definitely with the Stoke. Even if it were just a few miles/kms. And they gonna drive the price up just for the standard new esc and remote they make anyways now. More mass production and easier process = lower price per processed unit.
The stoke is a flight friendly board. I initially felt the same wanting more range but then its purpose is defeated. Double up on batteries is the only solution but they need to rework the swapping system so it’s genuinely quick swap like the exway wave.
This is it!!! All problems are solved! Very nice!. I wanna try to ride on this new GTR with higher torque. Higher torque is very important & fun (acceleration) on any road conditions! Really coooool !!!! No more overheat with huge motors on the grass field & uphill !! I love the robust remote controller, too
You guys FCKED up! Why didn’t you guys use the 21700 battery cells. I was gonna get one but since they didn’t change out the batteries, I rather go else where to buy better boards for a better price
Yeah it was a bit of an odd choice not to at least provide a slight battery upgrade, I imagine they don’t want to bring it too close to the Hadean’s specs
21700’s would probably have pushed the price up too close to the Hadean. Be interesting to know if the batteries have changed at all or if the existing ones will still work with the Hadean esc…
@@kie-skatemods4141 To be fair it’s not all about price, we are paying for Evolves R&D even if the specs are the same the way the board handles and how smooth the motor controls are will effect your experience much more. That’s why I’m willing to pay a bit of a premium.
Yeah I get you but since the hadean is almost the same size as the gtr (tiny bit wider) if they pack better batteries in it pushes the hadean out of the market. I reckon the new GTR will go up steepest street in the world now (Baldwin st) with those new upgrades, and just between u and me I reckon it will be perfect now for a mod or too...

My question is are the motors the same as on the Hadean? Basicly, is it as fast and does it accelerate the same as the Hadean? Being that the only difference to the Hadean is the board shape? Also has the Bamboo version gotten any constructional changes? I´ve broken 2 Bamboo GTR decks from the back coming off from small curbs.. the wear and tear gets to them I guess.
Sounds like this will fix the touchy breaks over 17mph similar to the Haden does. That’s good news. Less accidental crashes and broken bones. Good stuff
@GeeKIller I very much agree, boosted got it right first time with the roller remote. You get used to it though and it becomes a lot more intuitive over time
@GeeKIller That’s fair enough, I’ve had a few accidents of my own on the GTX with twitchy breaks and unexpected power loss but I’m hoping the new ECU has fixed those issues
Nice board choice for the heavier riders starting out who don't need the 'hadean' range. Will be interesting to see where the price settles, I'm thinkin the 2,300 mark
If you want to lead the way, work a deal for the new 4680 tabless Tesla cells and put them in your boards? They have 5x more energy storage and 6x more power than the standard 2170. Imagine the Hadean with those. I hope you see this
I don't agree, if what they claim is true 1 of these things holds as much as 5 x 2170's as it hold 5x the energy, the physical size of 5x 2170's is much bigger than 1x 4680, again that's what they claim. If they can only fit half as many cells in they board because of size the board would still have 3 x power and range than the normal board with the 2170's. Which would be epic... one of these should be called the " Carbon Black Ultimate"
@@paulmcconachy3340 I’m talking about how thick the cell is more so when mentioning their form factor, Evolve want to make slim/sleek boards, 46mm vs 21mm it’s a no brainer which way they’d go.
Yep fair enough, good way to improve the board without cutting out the Hadean which has that bit more range and power, hoping the GTR carbon is still a fully sealed unit with the lights
@@technohc4939 the lighstrip connects to the main board battery and it probably only uses at most about 5w. Its evolve's own light strip and its controlled with the controller.
@@KK001 that's good to know, I know it might not seem much but 5w is quite a bit of power, If you put a 5w resistor in a cup of water and powered it up that water would boil pretty quick I reckon I lose about 3kms of distance with the lights on full from my riding experience and there is also heat losses through the circuit board too. I want that all to be used by the motor to give me maximum range
I think this was a good move Evolve. Looks like you got rid of the first gen GTR and raised the price by 200 bucks. I think this is well justified for a phase remote and more powerful motors. I’d like to see them come out with a new board that’s around 900 watt hours even it means a bit more weight and a bulkier deck.
Couldn’t they just design a battery with a hump in the middle for the Hadean, as a plug and play upgrade. I would have thought the chassis frame setup of the Hadean would allow a bigger battery.
Different motors ( brutally needed, hope the new ones are durable, can handle vibrations ), new motor controller, new remote ( no longer ULTRA light duty ). To not upgrade the range is insane.
I have both Series 1 and Series 2 stoke, the Stoke doesn't have the upgraded motors, however, the power delivery is so much smoother, the braking is smooth but greater and there is no motor noise like the Series 1. Its feels faster and more refined.
@@ian9toes it’s the same battery, same connector, but communications protocoll changed, so series II motor controller won’t understand a series I battery‘s data unfortunately
@@cRaSy2k7 Yeah but the physical battery box hasn’t changed correct? It’s based off the original GTR platform, so it should be possible to rip out all the internals right? I’m thinking having the carbon fibre board, trucks, wheels etc, should be able to be utilised and save some $$$
Would need to do a Hadean vs GTRv2 video. And is having the extra 10-15km extra range (and drop down deck) worth the extra $$$ :) ? There is also better cells going for the Hadean but who knows how much difference that makes...
I bought a GTR in May because I liked the GTX so much and wanted better range. But...the GTR overheats taking me home up a moderate San Francisco hill that the GTX had no trouble with. So 2 questions. Will the GTR series 2 do much better on such hills? And, is it possible to retrofit my new GTR to the Series 2 electronics and motors?
Just in case you don't get a reply from evolve, I've had both GTR and Hadean. I think the GTR 2 will be much better for hill climbs as the Hadean motors don't overheat and I've driven mine up steepest street in the world (Baldwin St). Saying all that even though it costs a small house the hadean is amazingly good, with range power, torque and speed, still small enough to get through narrow tracks and now that I've done almost 2500 ks and the battery capacity is reducing still can get 30-35 ish ks. Hope that helps a bit
I hope so, why else call it an upgrade. Also the components that have changed see easy to switch and avoiding battery upgrade makes things simpler too I think
So slightly faster and more reliable and durable remote... not convinced worth the upgrade price from GTR especially for anyone who didn't have issues with the remote or overheating...
Where is the upgrade kit for GTR serie 1 owners ? I can't find it on your website 🤷 What about Hadean owners, don't they need replacement parts such as motors, motor plates and controller too or is this board self repairing itself ?
I was very upset, but unlike the GTR of the first generation, the GTR 2 Carbon has communication problems with the remote control in big cities. The engineers miscalculated.

Hey Johnny Come Lately this has been YEARS man... Getting new folks to ride existing inventory with updated conponets at the lower price point isn't a bad strategy.
Ahhh but you forget, the Exway atlas is not designed to make you fly like superman see one of evolves old GTR perks is the build in flying feature 😉 however to my knowledge the GT was one of the original boards you could get then others saw their design and tweaked it a bit, then they brought out the GTR and many brands got one looked at design and built their own cheaper... if one company built a hoverboard you can bet other companies would then see how it was made and then make it cheaper and maybe even better... I bet the phase remote will be copied soon that thing can take a beating and it's the only one of its kind atm
@@Heisen-burgerr yeah the price is pretty crazy. Although from what I see the range of the atlas is 34 kms (with the 160mm wheels) hadean is 40+ kms for a 85kg rider with 7inch wheels (I've done that myself) battery size is similar too 700ish Wh's from what I saw. Ideally I'd want a board that is the same size as the Hadean/ atlas with 2x 3000w motors or more which can do 100+ km so I can do overnight offroading adventures 😀, one can dream... I can say as someone coming up to 2500ks on his hadean it's working well and only lost about 5 ks of range on battery capacity so far
No, it’s still a 10s battery. That 6000w power rating is only what the motors are capable of, neither board is actually touching 6000w, the gtr is only like 1300w at full charge.
That would be 10 miles. 16 is in kilometers. This “upgrade” is useless. 10 mile range going the slowest speed. They always calculate ranges on the lower settings. So in reality, you are getting about 6 to 7 miles going the fastest.
Evolving "à la Apple" refurbishing some old unsellable stock with a bit of cover-up while not allowing former customers to upgrade their outdated board for no other reason than greed, this is such bad commercial practice, bad rep coming... 👎💩🚽
If you have a concern, reach out to your Local Evolve Service team, they will be happy to get the board in for assessment to figure out what is going on!
All these specs are jokes compared to your direct competitors. I am riding the meepo Hurricane for one year now with 60 km range and 50 km/h top speed and I paid 1299$ And all other 'China' - Board Brands already evolved faster than you. If somebody wants to ride Premium Boards with good customer Service in their country, I predict most people will go with ONSRA in the future. Sorry evolve... I just don't know why So many unknown Brands are able to build better Boards for better prices than you.

10 mile range going the slowest speed. They always calculate ranges on the lower settings. So in reality, you are getting about 6 to 7 miles going the fastest.
Evolving "à la Apple" refurbishing some old unsellable stock with a bit of cover-up while not allowing former customers to upgrade their outdated board for no other reason than greed, this is such bad commercial practice, bad rep coming... 👎💩🚽
I wish I could afford this :(
All good until they break and if you buy them from a third party, good luck!
If you have a concern, reach out to your Local Evolve Service team, they will be happy to get the board in for assessment to figure out what is going on!
I think this is a money grab
All the upgrades we could have wanted
The stoke did not receive modern cells or a range upgrade.
Yeah a battery upgrade was sorely needed. Once that battery is degraded a bit the range is less that ideal
Anyone else still on a a gt aha
Me. Still have it. It's ligther than GTR and a little bit flexier. Trucks, motors and remote are the same. Battery and range is not everything...
All these specs are jokes compared to your direct competitors. I am riding the meepo Hurricane for one year now with 60 km range and 50 km/h top speed and I paid 1299$
And all other 'China' - Board Brands already evolved faster than you.
If somebody wants to ride Premium Boards with good customer Service in their country, I predict most people will go with ONSRA in the future.
Sorry evolve... I just don't know why So many unknown Brands are able to build better Boards for better prices than you.
