Yep that’s the plan. The height of the truck is pretty high due to the FKP so a dropthrough would allow a lower ride height.

Here’s some ride footage of the Stryx! This one is on a pneumatic set up with 6" wheels.

sweetness - what’s the wheelbase on this baby?

I’ll get back to you on that, but the deck is 29"
Edit, wheelbase is 22"

My take on the name of the trucks: RBYMKP = Rides better than yo mama kp.
PS: arc is no longer working with 121c?

wow - perfect! next question - how’s the seal on the lid? - hopefully weather-proof

We’re still working with 121c, but we are perfecting our own integrated deck designs at the same time. Integrated decks are great to build with, it’s like a game of Tetris with the enclosure space and components.

The seal is pretty good, but with all top mounted lids, once water pools up on a rainy day, water has a chance of ingressing into the base. A fully integrated one will be very much rainproof, so customers in the future can have the option of a battery swappable setup, and an integrated setup where the lid can be sealed and with a layer of griptape.

I can definitely see the lid cutout and overall design being unappealing to many customers. Glad to hear you will be offering a seamless version! I suggest you have most product photos be with that one 
Will you be selling only completes, or individual parts as well, like the gear drives? Also, you should probably put a link to your website in the first post

Thanks, website added! We are considering offering parts like the decks/gear drives but will have to check with the rest of the team before we can give a green light. If there are enough people keen do give a shout!
True, out of all the people that have seen the battery swap setup in person, like/dislike ratio seems to be a 50/50. For those who prefer a nice big pack and less risk of water ingress when riding in the rain, the integrated seamless one is what i would recommend.
Then there are riders that prefer to ride/carry the amount they ride, 2 batteries in the board and two batteries in the bag for example. @BillGordon seems to like the swappable feature from our last chat.

do we by any chance get to know what parts are used in these?
thanks

I do like it. There’s something freeing about riding without checking battery levels or worrying about range. The guys at Arc kindly provided me with four packs, so when I run the first set of two packs down, I just swap in the fresh packs and turn around. I would definitely want 6-8 packs just for the options it would provide.
Also, for anyone concerned about charging hazards, being able to take the batteries out and charge in the open or in a bag is a real bonus, and since the packs are enclosed and encased, there are no worries about torn shrink wrap and such.
As for the deck, all I really care about is the shape, and IMHO, they nailed it. I like a wider deck with my size 13 feet, and I have enough space with the Finix deck to take a wide, long stance and feel nicely locked in.
I should also add that the trucks are unquestionably more stable than DKP and close to RKP for me. These trucks have a wide footprint, but turn much better than you would think, and I have yet to feel unstable (albeit at my somewhat pedestrian speeds). That may have to do with the beefy nature of the hangers as much as the pivot design.

Not 100% convinced about the decks but that small gear drive and special trucks are realy tempting
