Should You Buy The Onewheel Pint X?

Well if you’re here then there’s one question on your mind:

Should you buy the Onewheel Pint X?

What to consider

Here are the factors you should consider:

Onewheel Pint X vs Onewheel Pint

When considering the Onewheel Pint X vs the Onewheel Pint the biggest considerations are the price and range.

My first Onewheel was the Pint, and I loved it and still ride it all the time.

That said, I do feel like it didn’t take me very long to outgrow the range and speed.

If it were me today buying my first Onewheel I’d be buying the Onewheel Pint X because the price is not much more and the range and speed are a lot more.

My grandpa bought me a nice guitar amplifier when I was a teenager and said something I like to live by.

He said “buy quality that lasts and you only have to buy once”.

I think the same applies here, if you know for sure that you’re gonna buy a Onewheel and love it, go for the Pint X.

If you aren’t sure if its for you or you’re not totally sold, the Pint is a better buy for sure.

Onewheel Pint X vs Onewheel GT

The Onewheel GT is a beast of a board, and it’s definitely not the board I would recommend to a first time buyer, truly I would recommend the Pint X.

I think the GT is a bigger, meatier and more aggressive board.

If you’re just getting into Onewheel riding, the Pint X has a very nice learning curve and will last you a long time.

And, if you decide you want a little something extra, you can always sell your Onewheel Pint X here and upgrade.

If you want a great entry level board that doesn’t restrict you, the Pint X is the right fit.

Price

All Onewheel’s are pricey, that’s just sort of the nature of the beast, though in a recent survey Future Motion hinted through a rider survey that a cheaper Onewheel model is something they’ve considered.

But I do find the price for the Pint X to be pretty reasonable.

The price of the Pint is awesome for sure, but I feel like you get so much more for an extra $350:

Higher top speed, MUCH better range and this board lets you go on group rides and hang with the big boys, much more so than a Pint can.

Range

The range is great. The GT gets a pretty crazy range, but I find that I have never exhausted the GT range in one single ride.

The 12-18 miles you get with the Pint X is probably perfect, if you’re doing a big long street ride I can see how you might do 10-15 miles in a single go, but off road I think this range is more than enough.

Value

The Onewheel Pint X holds its value incredibly well.

Check out the listings on my site here or on reddit, eBay or craigslist, they all tell the same story that the Pint X will hold value for a long time.

Is it worth it?

Yea for sure it is.

It’s no small price to pay I’ll tell you that.

Thankfully there are finance options if you want/need them.

But it’s 100% worth it, I ride my board as often as I possibly can and you probably know someone who swears by theirs, and that’s what brought you here.

If you can swallow the price, absolutely pull the trigger, I don’t think you’ll regret it.

And even if you find that it’s not for you, I’ll help you find a buyer for free.

Happy riding!

The top speed of a Onewheel Pint X is 18 mph
