I thought 3DServisas sold abec adaptors as well? I bet if you place a WTB listing someone has some… seems a lot of folks lately are switching to kegel, way more probably than folks making new abec buiilds
Unless you just want to make some

Was looking for ages. Couldn’t find any, or even a picture of one anywhere on the net =/
All the ones were drive adapters, not Abec to Kegel
A new gear drive system from the 3DServisas Finality product series. A revolutionary new design involving all drivetrain components to provide the best possible driving experience for riders.
After designing and making gear drive systems for longboards and mountainboards for over three years, we are thrilled with the results, and it’s our pleasure now to introduce our newest gear drive system.
A multi-component gear drive system consisting of three key components:
After designing and riding multiple styles of boards and thousands and thousands of kilometers, we were never happy with the wheel mounting and driving system. It always was a major vulnerable part of the design. The exposed bearings, lack of precision, complicated assembly process, and weight issues led us to redesign this mounting and driving system from scratch. Using our motorsports experience and consulting several experts in the field, we would like to introduce a new way to mount and drive wheels on electric boards Finality Wheel Hub System (FWB)
After a full redesign of the system by taking inspiration from the car wheel hub, we designed a new wheel hub system with an enclosed dual tapered bearing and a five-bolt mounting pattern. It allows us to mount the wheel rim to the trucks and drivetrain without any issues and removes bearing’s from the wheel rim.
After redesigning the wheel hub system, we needed to make new wheel rims for the wheels. After removing bearings and just having a 5-bolt mounting mechanism using M6 hardened bolts, which each can withstand more than 100kg, we can provide the most rigid, light, and accurate wheel-spinning experience.
After releasing our last most successful gear drive design, we bring the updated gear drive design to this system. A CNC machined aluminum enclosure with a special plastic wheel gear (which is more rigid than POM and equivalent to aluminum rigidness) and steel motor gear this system is only available in helical gear design for best power transfer and noise levels. With a fully enclosed design and multiple bearing design for the best gear work efficiency.
The gear drive comes in few diameter options tied with a specific gear ratio, which allows this system to be mounted on several truck designs

Wasn’t meant negative
I guess the bearings will last for sure longer than usual ones, but how expensive and how difficult are those to replace?
Is the product as it stands now compatible with XCELL wheels + turbine and if so is there an option to order it without the hubs for use with XCELL wheels??
Looks great, but i’m dumb, could you please explain the advantages of this system? Looks expensive to maintain.
I understood The bearings to replace with proper tools is like 5min, but the advantage is that you will not be able to ride that many thousands of kilometers that you would need to replace them in their lifetime. It’s the same as how often do you replace your car wheel hub bearings.
There is basically no maintenance for the wheel hubs system, the design is almost the same as your car wheel hub, which is made to be working perfectly for a long time. The advantages there are no wobbles, vibrations, or stress because of carving or high-speed riding. The wheel spins without any wobbles and can handle high speeds (talking over 200km/h), radial loads, and perfectly made for off-road riding. Another benefit is that the wheel is lighter which helps with many things.
It is a different type of wheel, we no longer have bearings in the wheels and it mounts like your car wheel rims to the wheel hub using 5 bolt pattern so any existing wheels are not compatible.
Oh and another benefit we are not depending anymore for the truck axis to mount wheels so you can technically have any width wheels…
EDIT: Most important factor is that the bearings are enclose so no more rusted bearings on wheels
These seem like some pretty good benefits, what can you tell us about the testing/beta you have done with these?
Combined over few thousands of kilometers as we were developing this since last summer. It is visible in our board pictures but just nobody noticed yet.
This is beautiful. Looks like some awesome innovation you guys got here. No more messing around with bearing spacers and speed rings to get the spacing and fitment just right.
How is the free roll?
Just so I’m clear, FB320 V1 have different dimensions, so these be hubs and GDs are not backwards compatible, correct?
How does the wheel hub stay locked onto the axel? Does the m6 stud function like studs and lugnuts on a car? Also I really dig the hub centric wheels I take it they are only compatible with this system not regular 12 mm and lower axles?
It is less than normal bearings because seals and grease not the same as skateboard bearings, but it’s all made so it would hold the wheel hub for the long term and would prevent water/dirt damage.
Here is an example of free spin:
The main difference is a bit change in dimension and it’s much lighter, but v1 it should work with new gear drive system. Drop and email if you are interested as it’s not an option in the store.
It’s our special mounting mechanism for each truck system, but trust me this is never coming off Yes, those 5 x M6 studs work the same as in your car wheel hub. At the moment we only have them working with our trucks and Lacroix HyperTrucks.
This is some great work guys. hyped to see more companies innovating in this space.
Just wondering What is the weight of the wheel hubs?
that both or just one?
Yes both
So a rim and hub combo comes to 510g or 610 depending on rim size. plus tires thats up to 4kg for all four corners. Heavy but seems good considering the benefits.
