I prefer to build most of my boards for a top speed just over 30mph (48km/h). Like 31, 32, 33. (50, 52, 53).
Because I love the torque. Feel the POWAH and the RANGE
But I do have a board made for goin’ fast

Thats what I’m talking about lol. It will take a little bit to get up to that speed, and to cruise at it comfortably. Current rolling at little over 30mph comfortably

Can the pinion size be reduced by 1 or 2 teeth? I remember there being alittle bit of adjustment.
The problem with that is that the motor will hit the hanger since it becomes too close to the hanger. Also, the 23/64 have no common multiples which makes tooth wear very even as opposed to 20/64 which has several. 21/64 would be good, but the motor would be 1mm closer to the hanger.

@Boardnamics exacly what hardware will I need to assemble these drives? I didn’t receive hardware or lubricant with my order. I have 2 drives so I’ll need the equivalent of 2 hardware sets.
Thanks!
EDIT: I found this readily available under downloads on the boardnamics site. I’ll look first next time

I was hoping it would have been stuck here at customs. But that would mean that it hasn’t even left yet…

USPS has been REAALLY slow the last two weeks or so, packages that normally take 3 days have been taking a week

What is the angle on that deck? What angle are you running on those baseplates? Any issues with motor bite?
Yup. Still waiting
