Oh my...

EDIT: things you didn't mention (in case no-one noticed)

they changed the fork back to the original, except it wasn't reinforced this time: FAIL
they changes from having a 1 piece crossbar to have 2 seperate handles: FAIL
the deck looks as thin as an Old A: FAIL
they changed back to foam grips: FAIL
they changed back to one double clamp
it broke (in one day?): FAIL

hopefully they'll get it right on the third, have you told them that it broke? also how did you get it in the first place?

You just can't get into your head that MAYBE they meant that i could test out their new deck so they'd throw the old forks/steertube onto the setup. I'm not sure actually.

And 1 crossbar is still better than having 2 short crossbars.
And the first original XT had just 1 crossbar aswell.

Wake up. You've just watched a video-review.
They are not that blind to see the broken steertube in the video.
And the steertube isn't the main issue. It's the folding mechanism area which sucks.
And yes, i've also e-mailed them aswell just to be sure they would receive my review.

They saw my first video review online and despite the first one wasn't even that positive, they wanted to see me make a new one. Along with the new scooter they sent free prizes for our upcoming scooter jam/competition aswell which i'm organising at my local indoor park.

I'm just glad i didn't have to pay anything for that, and they only wanted to see me doing a review however i like.

I really hope they don't release this. I re-watched the review, the problem with it is that they listened to all you weight freaks and thought "fuck strenght, as long as it's light it doesn't matter".

wow seems like a very good scooter. I might stock up with a couple of them for the QCS store right now. they also seem pretty cheap. hmm... tough decision.

just joking this is the worst attempt at being gnarly micro has ever done. complete fail.

You would have Heel drags with BS 50-50 I do FS though haha. I like the wider deck. GREAT Review! The new XT looks worse Aesthetically, at least the used offset forks this time. Just goes to show you what a Corperations (Razor, Micro) product looks like as opposed to a product made by riders for riders would look like ( Proto, Rad, TRU, Inward etc...)

Im not sure Andrew.

I am stoked to find out Jordan and I are getting OLD XT's. And we will get the new ones most likely later on. Hopefully after they look at Madis's review..and fix it up a bit. But considering were getting old XTs, i dont really know if theyre completely replacing them or not. Mine should get here tomorow.

After seeing this video..i was a lil bummed at getting one of those..but im cool with an old one haha.

For sure. Be happy you got the old one because even though it's more heavier,
it's still feels more solid and stronger than the newer version which i got.
