And this one has some sort of mobile beard grooming station. Could be GigaChad.

Someone piss in your cornflakes this morning?

I didn’t see you whining when @Kaly was 9mo late with the xlr release or the many other boards that get behind schedule a little because supply chain is fucked RN.

Has anyone on the forum puchased a barrel? I’m curious to see more detailed pictures of the new trucks, and how they designed the kingpin on them.

I’m committed to matrix ii for now with the radium adapters and BN gear drives, but always looking toward the next shiny thing…

The Hypertrucks-Lite are pretty sweet, motor mounts look gorgeous too.

I’ll be doing my usual diy build of one of these.

That mount is wild, one side to apply tension and the other to lock it?

We’ll see how the truck battles of 2022 shake out, but these are looking sexy.

Only battle most will care for is “will it bend?” And “how much is this hurting my wallet”

$2k ain’t bad for a prebuilt that comes with a Stormcore and Lacroix trucks+drivetrain. And it’s 12s4p P42A to boot

If they only sell hypertrucks lite as a package with mounts, MBS hubs, and tires, like the hypertrucks - this is a hard no for me.

@Arch please sell these without all the extra stuff
