Blunt's Max Peters Scooter Check + Blunt No Longer Called Blunt in Australia???





Since Blunt Pro Scooters hit the scene they have proven to be a real powerhouse of a company. From the products they manufacture, all the way to the Team of riders they have all around the world. Recently Blunt has been up to its usual ways, designing and manufacturing new products for the community. They have always been very innovative and these new products from them are proof of that. Max Peters shows off some of them in the scooter check below. Learn more in the piece below the scooter check.



In that scooter check we got to see a sneak peak of the new wheel Blunt is working on the “Rebate Wheel”. This wheel is designed for all you riders out there that are sick of buying new wheels after flat spotting or chunking them. Which is a big problem in our sport today. The idea behind it is you can change the PU over in minutes for a faction of the cost of buying a whole new wheel, something that we’ve never seen in the sport so far.

The other new product in this scooter check is the new and very much improved AOSv2 deck. Blunt has put a ton of money and time into developing, what they say, is a new era in scooter decks. The front of the deck is one piece cold forged, and unlike other one piece head tubes its fully hollow inside. This deck is expected to come in at 1250gms making it one of the strongest and lightest decks on the market.

Other news from Blunt, that is bound to get people’s attention, is the name change in Australia. Reasons for this are still cloudy, but what Inside has been told is that it’s a new direction Blunt is heading. So for everyone In Australia, Blunt is now called Envy, Anywhere else in the world. It’s still Blunt. If you want to keep up dated with Envy and new products go to www.facebook.com/envyscooters and of course, keep checking Inside-Scooters.

  2. Just what the sport needs, wheels that come de hubbed. Really! Sorry it will never work. I thought there old decks were so good, "NOT". 90% failure. Thats why they need a new one. Blunt sucks, straight up. Companies usually change there name when they are trying to get rid of a bad image, and start over. GTLI
