Forget Marketing Claims – Here’s the Truth
Every brand loves to brag about range.
“Up to 50 km,” “eco mode,” “perfect conditions.”
Reality check: nobody rides like that.
At ONSRA, we don’t sell numbers — we test them.
Every board we build goes through real rides, filmed and logged by the team.
No simulation. No lab. No lies.

Our Testing Method
When we test range, we do it the same way you actually ride:
- Average speed: 30–40 km/h (no “eco mode”)
- Rider weight: 85–95 kg
- Terrain: mix of flat asphalt, small hills, and wind resistance
- Tires: standard setup for each model (100 mm / 150 mm / 200 mm)
- Battery fully charged, no re-gen braking tricks
Each test ends when the board stops delivering usable torque.
ONSRA Real-World Range Results
| Model | Battery | Motor | Terrain Tested | Tested Range | Notes |

✅ All ranges are real tests performed by ONSRA riders — full-speed, full-weight, full truth.
Why ONSRA’s Range Numbers Are Real
Most brands inflate results with:
- 60 kg riders
- Low-speed eco mode
- Perfect conditions
- Unrealistic tests
ONSRA tests the way you ride — real weight, full throttle, and mixed terrain.
That’s why our data matches what customers experience.
You won’t see “up to” claims here — you’ll see proof on video.
What Affects Range
Real riders know range depends on:
- Rider weight
- Terrain elevation
- Tire size (AT vs rubber wheels)
- Speed consistency
- Temperature and wind
We publish honest data, so when you buy an ONSRA, you already know exactly what to expect.
How to Get the Longest Range
A few small changes make a big difference:
- Keep tires inflated to spec (low pressure burns energy).
- Avoid constant full-throttle bursts — smooth acceleration wins distance.
- Lubricate bearings and check belt tension regularly.
- Use smaller street wheels for more efficiency.
It’s not about babying the board — it’s about letting engineering work for you.
The Verdict
ONSRA is probably the only electric skateboard company that films and publishes real range tests under full-speed conditions.
No speculation. No fake charts.
Just verified rides — you can watch every one of them yourself.
If you want a board that performs exactly as promised, this is where the truth lives.
