Whoops. I misread wheelbite for wheelbase
Just flip hangers outwards then. Same principles apply but in reverse. Increased wheelbase = less clearance

Technically the standard hanger can be flipped for max wheelbase. I personally don’t recommend that orientation since it increases wheelbase too much and it has the least amount of ground clearance. The centerset hanger is in between in both wheelbase and ground clearance compared to the standard hanger in the both orientations.
The centerest hanger has enough clearance to run 8 inch tires with 210mm hangers on a RE 44. The axle height would be 50mm, so it would need 10mm additional riser to match your current height.
The standard hanger might have enough clearance in the inward orientation to run 6 inch tires but I’d need to check. That is the same/similar height to rkp trucks, rear truck axle height would still be 50mm height.
One thing to keep in mind is these trucks lean more than rkp trucks especially with the stock angles which can impact bottom mounted enclosure clearance.
I’m wondering why are you running different height risers currently?
I have split angles, with the lower being in the back. This means that the back axle runs closer to the deck than the front. I added a riser in the back to combat this. The numbers I gave may not be exactly correct because I haven’t been around my board in a few days but the back definitely had more risers so that the board would be level.
I was planning on getting 270mm hangars with 165mm tires. Do you know which offset option I would need to eliminate all possible wheel bite?
You wouldn’t get wheelbite on the centerset hanger up front. This is 8 inch tires and 210mm front centerset hanger.
The offset hanger in the inward position would be about 15mm shorter wheelbase which may clear also with the smaller tires but centerset seems like a safer bet.
Damn those 210s suit the 44 perfectly
Didn’t realize brackets on dualities was getting traction. Working on a tangent bracket build with 210s and 125s. Taking some iterations to get the spacing and wheelbase i want.
Just about got the critical dimensions how i want and need to rework the bracket so i can make something i can actually stand on with it shattering (pla prototypes lol). So much lean
This is looking so fucking hot! What are your plans for enclosure?
18s3p in an under slung tomiboi enclosure poast had made and i begged a second press of. It’s tight as hell but should work without a top box but im thinking a second 18s3p range extension if have to but the goal is a light fast nimble build.
I have long range builds and trying to shoot the gap between long range and more portable just doesn’t do either well. Always just short of range and still too big to pickup casually.
Have you tried the lean with the enclosure under?
Yes and no, i have mocked it up with the enclosure taped in place and not notched for the bracket to check clearance and on 125s it seems good (slightly more offset than the version in the video). I haven’t been able to stand on any of my pla prototypes - way too weak to support me but ive snapped every one this way anyway
now that its close i have a couple pieces of red iron i can bend that should be strong enough to stand on but not enough for actual use.
Next weekend i may have an ugly rolling chassis, tbd
@Goride65 good hear you’re liking them.. Looking forward to seeing how your build turns out.
That build looks amazing!
Damn, this looks so good
I’ve been testing a custom @tomiboi Hellhound and I’m impressed. The layup is a little different with maple instead of bamboo. The noses are a bit longer to get a lower ride height, right about axle height. This also allows for narrower hanger, I’m using 210. Makes for a really good street and track board combo. Should be available soon.
Also, I just replaced my old gears because they were so loud and clicking all the time. Got some custom 67t and I’m genuinely surprised how quite they are. Was thinking of getting some more if there is any interest, lmk. They have mbs pattern.
What wheels are these and how does all of that mate up? Looks interesting.
Riding this at i2g, can confirm, shockingly quiet.
No louder then a well tuned belt drive
Great deck too.
