Maximum weight?

We approve the machine for riders 180lbs and less. But riders weighing as much as 250lbs have been riding without problems. Should you weigh more than 180 and experience problems please contact the company and we should be able to fix the problem.

The Grip tape needs replacing what do I do?

The grip tape should last a while. But it’s longevity depends on use. You should not ride with wet feet. And should you need to replace the grip tape most skate shops will be happy to do it for you for $5.00. $5.00 should get you a sheet that will last you 2 or three re-grips.

What kind of tricks can you perform on it. Can you rail grind?

Please ride within your skill level and wear helmet and pads at all times. Being a new machine it is up to the riders to develop tricks and further the sport. Check out Brookly Workshop’s YouTube page for rider videos with tricks and lessons.

We have not seen anyone rail slide yet, and for now it is not possible on the center cross bar. It may be possible on the frame or on the platforms.

Are your feet stuck inside?

There is plenty of room inside the wheel to remove your foot. We have riders with size 16 shoes that ride just fine and are able to remove their feet. It is still safer to just jump back and out of the machine before you fall to avoid a fall while your feet are still inside.

Can I take it apart?

The Freerider is serviceable and can be disassembled for cleaning and maintanence. Tools for disassembly are in the box. Just follow the provided instructions.

Does is have brakes, how do you stop?

The Freerider does not have brakes. A rider can turn and carve sharply to decrease speed. Do not take it down any steep hills if you can not power-slide.

How fast is it/Is it fast?

Freerider is as fast as a regular skateboard or casterboard

Can I ride it for my commute/ long distances?

You can try. But the Freerider is most fun in an area ride or skate park where you can carve and propel on a smooth surface.

How heavy is it? 7.3lbs

Are there different size crossbars?

Currently there is only one size.

My unit did not come with any pins, can you send me a set?

We no longer manufacture the pins and have phased them out of production on all Skatecycles based on rider input.  We can not send pins under any circumstances.
