DARTH VAPOR - Build history | 6374/80/84 | VESC 6 | Graphene 12S12AH++ | Custom X-Mount | SCRUBS deck customized

The question is… is it the same board if you’ve replaced all the original parts? :thinking:

One deck so much variations!
Always great to see boards developing.
Best way to find out what works best for yourself.

What is your experience with matrix II trucks? I’m collecting some knowledge about ground clearance with 8", 9" or even 10" combined with a gear drive or chain.

ho sorry ! missed your last message.
I haven’t ride them enough compare to channel type. I have love them on soft AT. But can’t say for real off road.


But I like that they’re the widest and carviest mtb trucks I have tested !
Also you maybe know now, that for me, from the start it’s 9" all the way :wink:
(I have message Jenso a lot in summer 2k18 to know if I could set is mini GD with 5star lol)

I see Andy will test some 10", and Duffman ride 11" since a wile.
I got 11" too since almost a yr, but it’s too wide (4.10/3.50-4), it needs custom rims. (I just find the vid)

So I will follow Andy finding (3.00-4), and order some other profile 10" (260x85) for testing on the next setup.


center is 10cm … we will see!

Today, the Bro arrive !!!


It’s beautifull ! The finishing is gorgeous !! Stance looks perfect, is wide enough for my feet and feels comfy at 1st :smiley: can’t wait to discover more.

:checkered_flag: Winter build start now !!

Hi here !

I’m still working on my next MTBoard project … And the winter project starts to be a bit too long for my taste :sweat_smile:
Things have to move a bit now, I don’t want to pass a year without riding it !

And now, I got almost all ! So, some updates :

This is the trickiest part, the waiting … I definitely need help to find an EU machinist that can make and ship things these days :crossed_fingers::grimacing: A Good Samaritan around here ??!

My experience with those tires has not been exciting.
That type of tires (260x85), despite being very beautiful and aggressive, they are very fragile.
After a week they had already cracked with a use on grass …
The seller told me they are for mini quads (for children) and are not suitable for our use.

haaa :sweat_smile: thx a lot for your precious feedback @jeorghe !!
So, it will be a spare set just for a unique occasional ride :grimacing:
And so I can go for 9" mudplugger !.. haha (Im a 9" roller, started with 9" since 2015, I try 8" a bit around 2016/2017 but then reset 9" again. Then another quick 8" try in 2019 for the eToxx GD. But I hope this will let me fell what are 10" like … Then maybe the Trampa 10" is an alternative so …).

9" RWD


10" AWD

I don’t think I need an AWD/4WD … I dream about it for so long now … But yeah, my wallet will definitely thanks me :upside_down_face: Already that I cannot finance my GD (will try to make it full DIY but before I can control my future CNC as I want,… I don’t see me riding before at least 2021 if so !).


Yeah, I message Mr. Duffman already, we will see :wink: I’m also going to try Akhlut (not EU but I’m sure he can do that too) and 3DSas :crossed_fingers:

Ha yes, same looking as the Trampa once :wink: I see, thanks ! (But 1st I will try and kill mine, then I sure I will jump on the 9" again, depending on the felling oc).


@RyEnd, maybe a bit too extreme :crazy_face: hahaha… And it will make me want 4WD for sure :rofl:

Haha you must be really bored to give that much details into the build !
Weird to buy a loopkey tho !

haha ^^, Maybe but … it’s just part of the list … and I need it ! I use it for around 2 or 3 yrs at least I guess.

And, no weirder than your comment :joy:
People should know it exists !

They are very studying, I like the details, clean slick look (for the last version in full black), and the pcb very helpful to also directly use ubec, charge, led power, etc. And to easily set it on your enclosure, strongly fixed with screws !!

I recommend it to you, and for only 9€ !

Plus, in addition, you are helping a small French artisanal company that has brought so much to our community! I would do it again with pleasure !!! :kissing_heart: (I prefer to by my HK XT90S from him than directly from HK)

Rain of photos as a bonus! :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:


Full black version

Mine is not as sexy and strong … :sweat_smile:
