Looking for a no-idler or dual-idler (if small) adjustable angle mount for caliber trucks. Must be mounted with a clamp. Not grub screws, not an adapter that changes the truck profile to a circle.
Seems that no esk8 shop in the EU has one that meets these simple requirements. Maybe someone has a used one they could part with? I just want to finish my friend’s board
There are import fees from norway, iirc. Out of interest, why not circle adapters? I guess if you’ve had poor experiences with them then it makes sense but my aps/dicky mounts fit so tightly eve without clamping ive never had spinning problems
My friend would kill me if I bought him mounts that were blue, sorry.
P.S. I had remembered people had complained in the past about Dickyho’s mounts breaking, but while looking for a source I learned that it was a bad batch some time ago, and that the current ones have a good reputation.
It attaches to the truck with a SINGLE grub screw. My Torqueboard’s mounts with 4 grub screws were problematic, so I’d imagine this one having even more problems. I did use it for my brother’s build for a few rides, but at the moment it is stuck to a broken motor whose pulley I cannot remove. Worst case I will try drilling holes in its mounting plate to use with my friend’s board, after cutting the pulley in half if I fail to remove it with a remover tool I bought yesterday.
my problem with them was that so far out on the hangar the ecaliber profile is thinning out, so i used 2 clamps and cut the screws to achieve this…
as for the grubscrews, i never really had problems with those with some loctite treatment
My TB mounts seemed solid as well with red loctite, but once every few weeks it would still get a bit loose, and I’d have to retighten. The caliber hanger is soft, so my grub screws were just digging deeper and deeper into the truck.
then, the screws you see in the picture i posted above are the ones that stay original length, and the ones that go through the actual mount are then ones you shorten a bit, easy
I have those electric board solutions and I to need to tighten the grabscrews time to time. But my Caliber hanger have holes in them from the grabscrews.
I guess I give them a pas for that price.
