I also experience this to some degree. I tightened it very hard but still there is some play. I guess two screws instead of one might be more robust.
I think it was me it almost solved it but not 100%. I had to tighten them one more time afterwards and now itâs with a customer, cannot say if itâs holding on.
First test ride on these drives and they are a lot quieter than I expected from listening to them on videos. Canât wait to ride the crap out of these.
Madman! I love my crocs, but I wonât ride with them.
They are my favorite for riding these daysâŚ
Flat like skate shoes for board feel, soft like running shoes⌠Best of both worlds imo and feeling the air is nice too My ankles and heels will hate me when I fall though Iâm sure.
I see youâve engaged sport mode on those bad boys
I wish I could, I like my shoes for riding stupid tight. I tried my slides once turned back in about a block to change.
Well that was a long walk home⌠anyone else see these keel pins slowly work their way out of the wheel adaptor/pulley? I mean I do a lot of hard carving sure, but are these pins really a maintenance item I need to keep an eye on? Lost one pin mid-ride and the other four worked their way out of the adaptor completely and I had to push home.
Also I assume I should lock-tight these back in to help them hold this time? And do I need a fifth pin? Probably hey?
I can replace that. I can tell from the pins that theyâre the first gen adapters before I changed a few things, one of them being to apply adhesive.
Can I use loctite 290 wicking for this. Still havenât set up my gen1 drives.
rosco I applied loctite 290 around the perimeter of the pins and it looks like it wicks down the pin/adapter interface really well.

How many WH/Mile are yall averaging? I have the 2.20 and getting around 26wh/mile which seems like itâs a bit high for Urathane so curious if you guys are getting the same or lower
I think the most likely way to break one of these gears is if you ran them exposed then got a rock jammed in them. Some little guards seem like they would be needed for dirty track racing.
With 2.78 and bergs Iâm getting between 24wh/mile to 32wh/mile depending on how careless Iâm with my life XDD
(15-20 wh/km)
How is the torque on 6" tires? Iâm hoping itâs alright.
Its not bad, and I still get up every hill I want but I prefer the torque I had with the 115mm wheels. I donât think a smaller than 6380 motor would be comfortable with this setup.
The top speed is unreachable for me at the moment as you have to balance the wheels pretty well (70km/h).
I have some smaller 125mm tires I might throw in my berg rims and give them a ride to check out how the smallest pneumies perform.
Okey, this might be a dumb question, but in the web it says that the helical gear ratio itâs 2.78 but 29T on the motor pulley and 75T on the wheel pulley turns out to be 2.59. Itâs helical calculated differently than straight?
Its calculated the same, probably just a typo
Donât you need to prevent the shaft from spinning somehow ?
