    • Why arent the wheels already installed? I bought a pre-assembled board!

    • Because the Duo can use such a wide variety of wheels, and thus wheel sizes, the safest option for transport is to send the board with the wheels off. Good news though! Installing the wheels is quick and easy!

    • Your all set! Time to ride!

    • 100% Acceleration

    • Please note that the different modes do not change the overall top speed, they just limit the acceleration significantly.
