Ya, I know. On the flat deck ones (35/15) the lowest axle height possible is 50mm with both trucks flipped and a 10mm riser for the front one (heights matched). That way makes the wheelbase very long for something like the semenbone. 3 link will go down to like 35-40mm afaik.
Nice one man! I hope you are happy with that deck.
i almost bought it for this build too but i decided i want everything internal to make it easier for traveling with the board.
thanks bro, i’m really looking forward to trying the deck. probably won’t have much practice on it before march tho unless the snow stays away.
i had some custom mounts made and anodized black to run stooge gears on duality trucks to. this was before my board got wrecked tho so if anyone can use them, lmk.
they’re 60-82mm c2c so they’ll fit almost any gear ratio. the motor shaft slot is also wide enough to fit the inner part of the pinion gears where the grub goes without rubbing.
edit: i have 3 pairs
(pic of the final design but not anodized)
edit again: might try a set of duality’s anyways so i’ll be keeping em if i do
Today I just claimed 3rd place in the T-race rankings on my Duality build. 0.56 left to go to take 1st space. Given that my time drop from yesterday was 0.28, it’s not implausible that I’ll have it soon!
Also loose trucks ftw
fineeee i’ll try a set.
I, too, have heard enough hype that I’m interested in swapping my matrix 2s for these. Only issue I see is compatibility with moon’s gear drives and these trucks maybe. Anyone ran into this issue or has a solution?
If you can source an apex air truck adapter you should be good. Easier said than done
I’m still working on final resolution with the current axle and kingpin supplier that seems to be drawn out. In the meantime I placed order from another supplier last week, which seemingly at this rate I might get parts from them first in about about five weeks,
Finally finished my build with these, build thread coming soon. Holy shit @Titoxd1000 these are a game changer
Are you aiming for stock before EOY?
Also interested too. I tried a duality board at Electrify and now I’m gonna help run Tito back out of stock immediately after he re-opens.
I might maybe consider buying another set too. Just for unobtanium reasons
Yeah I am also buying a second set, my offroad board is also going to get these. The last half year riding these made me not like channel trucks anymore.
That will be a bit further out though, timings looking like esk8con probably
Funny, I’m ALSO buying a second set. I like them a lot on my MTB build. I want them on my street build now lol.
tito’s gonna get locked up for selling yall some sk8 meth. clearly it’s highly addictive and a lucrative business.
well… well uhhh… i’ll buy another set too! for my uhhh… my ummmm… my other new board that i have no plans on building
Spare a thought for us poor, duality-less paupers why don’cha
Good to hear. I always look forward to seeing and reading about the builds these trucks end up on. Feel free to post the link here when you get the build thread up.
Yeah. Things have not gone as smooth as I like but I believe supply chain issue has been fixed now to meet this target.
