@Venom121212 been running mbs forever maybe he can comment
Thoughts on phatladz? I have seen some poor reviews regarding balance. But i lile the idea of them offering a megastar width with lower weight and price!
No mention of Phatladz here…are they a contender?
I have a set
superstar / phatland / megastar
Whats on my gear drive boards? 3ds and mbs
And yes I test them without tires on.
On my belt drives though I run superstar. The weight saving is nice and its pretty
Good advice. Makes sense since the fastest a full trampa board can go is like 51km/hr, and that with picking every single part towards speed. Think they’re meant for the 30-40 top speed range where a wobble will be barely noticeable.
Do your hubs run 9 inch wheels as well? I may treat myself later on or even with the drives purchase since i can’t really go wrong with good tolerance cnc parts
Edit: seen the pic, they do
6.5-10"
Next question on the menu: spare tubes. Do i really have to pay £10 every time someone smashes a beer bottle on the bike lane? Is there any place to get them in bulk for cheaper?
I really wanna see those hubs with wheels in the air go from 0 to max speed. Are you able to film this? It should be really obvious if something is out of balance
I stick it on a hanger and just spin them. Btw its not out of balance thats a problem. Thats easy to fix and tires are ALL out of balance. Its when they wobble thats a problem.
Fivestars for forever. Cheap, solid, light, takes tires from 5.5-9" just fine and dyeable. Come in black now too.
You bought it all didn’t you
Lol I actually like writing on rims/tires
Gives that nascar feel
The lacroix tires with white text look super cool to me like on that Auram Bro build
lee wright sells some knobbly ones and so does trampa
I am by no means experienced yet with pnummie tires but
I’ve seen tons of different ones. Pretty much any 200x50 tire
MBS T1, T3, Trampa tires, Kendas, Metroboard ones, etc etc etc.
There’s a pnummie tire thread that you could read through
There’s barely anything useful to read off that thread unfortunately. Went through it as it appeared.
Just want to know what people like and use regularly
idk bro this thread was pretty useful to me…
