Yes, the TranceBoard has very little resistance, so it rolls almost like a normal longboard/skateboard when the motor is off. Our goal is for the resistance from the in-wheel motor drive and the antioxidant ceramic bearings to make the TranceBoard roll almost like a normal skateboard.
A slight resistance is intentional—it makes you more stable on the electric skateboard. This is especially important for beginners. We'll even integrate adjustable friction generated by the in-wheel motors to make the skateboard easy to ride, even for newcomers.
