The different board’s weights are from 23lbs to 35lbs (10.4kg to 15.9kg) depending on the model. The Onewheel Pint is the lightest at 23lbs, three pounds lighter than the bigger XR, and massively 12lbs lighter than the new Onewheel GT.
Overall the weight difference isn’t that huge but the smaller board feels much more nimble to carry around and ride. Looking at the size the Pint is a few inches shorter at 27 inches and rocking a smaller and thinner wheel. The Pint also feels lighter because the handle is to the side compared to XR where you are lifting the board at the nose.
The GT is the biggest board created by Future Motion Inc. The weight comes from the larger wheel and increased battery capacity, increasing the range to 20-32 miles (32-52 kilometers)

Knowing the weight of your Onewheel can be essential for portability and transportation purposes. The larger GT and GT-S is not as convient to being into a store our walk around in a shopping mall as you need to carry it. The carrying handle do work but still you need to haul around the 35lbs. The only one that really is convenient to carry for a longer time period is the Pint, that’s why it’s usually recommended as a last mile commuter board going to and from work if you need to take the bus/train. Something I can agree on as I’m using my Pint to and from work at good and sunny days. It’s possible to carry it inside our office and on the train.
Adding Accessories
Adding accessories light flight fins for jumping and control, external battery packs for extended range, and fangs for a safer rider can drastically increase the weight of the board. The one thing that offset its weight would be the flight fins, with these you get more control and it´s easier to do curb and other jumps with the board.
Choosing the Right Onewheel Model Based on Weight
Why Onewheel Weight Matters
When selecting an Onewheel model, the weight is a factor that can significantly impact your riding experience and practicality. Here’s why it matters:
Portability and Transportation
- Ease of Carrying: The weight of your Onewheel determines how easy it is to carry when you’re not riding. Lighter models like the Onewheel Pint are more manageable for short walks or public transportation. If you use your board as me, to and from the train then the Pint is perfect.
Carrying the GT, even if it has a handle, will sone be tiresome with its weight of 35lbs. - Storage: If you plan to store your Onewheel indoors or in tight spaces, a lighter model might be preferable as it’s easier to lift and maneuver. Still, this is not the biggest of issues.
- Travel Friendliness: If you’re a traveler, a lighter Onewheel can be more convenient for taking on trips, whether by car, or other means. Keep in mind that it’s not possible to fly on a plane with your Onewheel XR or GT.
Riding Experience
- Agility and Nimbleness: Lighter Onewheel models, such as the Pint, offer a more agile and nimble ride. They are quick to respond to rider input and can be ideal for urban commuting with frequent stops and turns.
- Stability and Range: Heavier models, like the GT, tend to offer increased stability due to their weight and flatter tire profile. Additionally, they have a longer range thanks to the larger amount and capacity of batteries inside.
