haven’t had any real issues with mine on my 20S bro build… yet. But there are better options for sure. Just not cheap ones. I’d prob pick up some of those BH flipshits if I was rebuilt to be honest though.
TBF I don’t ride nearly as hard or as much as I used to
@Avi just avoid them, they aren’t good the cans like to come free from the shaft, the windings are kinda crap, then there is also the size of the can. From personal experience sealed or non sealed doesn’t really matter, but u want a thick can for the stator. this keeps the motor relatively cool and the cooler the motor that you have the better, since your motors run more efficient and regen braking is much smoother (tldr cooler motors with good windings have nice braking), if u really need cheapness and okish motor just buy non sensored motors off ebay, also @NMSkate has some 6374 motors SK3s. these are ok motors not the best by any means, but far better than most motors. and they r getting rid of inventory $65 a piece + shipping
I’m in France in Lyon (no ocean nor snow), normal climate (cold in winter, hot in summer), I use it mainly for group ride but I used it as a tool sometimes.
I even rode my board in the snow at Chamonix one time.
I just put loctite on the shaft’s grub screw and that’s it…
