thanks for your support guys.

I still have some motors to ship to eu but otherwise theyre all out. if they show well I plan to get a batch made abroad by a biz I know well so not my lazy slow self doing anything other than final assembly.

the tire and hanger molds were made through the kickstarter so be a shame not to continue.

i have a lot of decks and wheels still. Message me if youre interested

For the decks - maybe setup a simple Shopify site and post to the other groups like Discord, Facebook, Reddit? They are great decks but it’s probably the combination of having to PM to order, and the smallish forum group that explains why they aren’t moving that fast. Maybe partnering with a fiberglass enclosure guy and offering that would help too.

@BigBen made this beautiful fiberglass enclosure at the time!

This Hummie stuff deserves to be sold more. Quality is awesome. The guy is very nice. No marketing shit.

He’s like @nowind from E-TOXX : talented engeenering poet.

By the way, @Hummieee sells his own enclosures.

Will you consider making narrower hangers that make the total width 10 inches like the standard longboards? How wide is the default?

I’m one of the people in the EU still waiting. It has been a long journey, I will be happy to give some feedback if they arrive.

Yea I’m super slow I’m sorry. I’ll put in a lot of hours this weekend.

i just held one of these and i’ll say this, i am impressed by the quality but not the width. Is it too late to consider making shorter hangers? like 165mm ones? I’d shell out a reasonable amount of money for it.

I would be so in for this if there was ever a 2nd round. Not likely but a man can dream.

Any updates on the bikes? That looks awesome

@zackoric
u could make another hanger by sand casting and using a 3d print to make the mold.

@Jebe bikes are going well thanks…and then blew up the esc w 87v

do you have the hanger model?

or, can i disassemble the motor, pull out the axle, and shave off some edges of the hanger?

The motors bolt to the hanger axles as bud separate. I have some shorter axles that could be used. I have the model too but would be hard to sand cast but u could alter it

say i have an university’s mechanical engineering department’s tooling resources, can i get a good mold from the 3d model?

Then again you’d need inserts to cover the axle ends in the mold besides a sand casting set-up and an aluminum smelting set-up

Do the sleeves from these hubs fit the previous version?
