Am I the only one seeing a coarse thread that had a fine thread forced onto it?
The more I look at it the more it seems that way to meā¦
Can probably be saved with careful application of a proper die.

Make 1000% sure you have the correct pitch and diameter of thread dieā¦ and then thread it on the good side just to make 1,000,000% sure you are correctā¦
AND definitely go SLOW in starting the dieā¦ make 100% sure your die is square and perpendicular to the axleā¦ with hardened steel that is the toughest bitā¦ after you are sureā¦ Commit and thread it onā¦ and good luckā¦
If this is the very first time youāve used a thread dieā¦ maybe Iād look for a local machinist and bring it to himā¦ itās easy~peazy for him and bux 10 spent for a good truck axle is cheap, and you donāt haveta buy any toolsā¦ watch him do itā¦

I feel your pain man. stick around donāt give up the rewards are stellar. the first thing i did was read, read, read. I almost made the same mistake the other day. A multi-meter saved me a lot of pain (you can use it to test connections)

I think I know the answer but are the pins on the two connectors the same? Ie. can I just swap connectors or do I have to rep in the sensor wires
Same pins, theyāre called Dupont terminals you should be able to pop one out and place in a new connector with no issue.
Do it one at a time and take a photo beforehand just in case

Can anyone identify this pulley?

And is it possible to find bearings for it to fit regular 8mm axels?

What is a cheap 6 inch tire that will work with evolve hubs?
I love the trampa urban treads, but they wear out too fast for the price.

Weird the link doesnāt work.
For $10 I might as well just give it a try.
Does anyone on aliexpress sell 6.5 inch tires? I really like that size and havenāt been able to find any.
I couldnt find a single 6.5" tire that would fit on regular hubs, 8" are the next size up and more common than 6" but I understand if you donāt want to get all new hubs and tubes and sacrifice torque.
