The man keeps his cards close to his chest. I don’t know where or how he got them, i only know that he got them :joy:

Are they the same wheels that disintegrate while riding and lead to broken collar bones after a hundred miles? Seems like a liability to bring these back to market… Especially when @jeffwuneo is making upgraded outwheels.

Hey, so the wheels are exacully the same as enertion previous wheels, they are no better or worse then there last batch, l just got my hand on some remaining stock and wanted to offer it to people with raptors, l think the new mould being made will still take time and again l dont belive will be perfect first time, enertion had atleast 5 revisions of there wheels and it’s not as simple as just pour urethane like most of the Chinese hubs and outer wheels,

Yes, exacull6 same wheel

I think it’s great what you are doing for the community. But if these fall apart like this picture after a few hundred miles, I think you are just bringing more liability to the sport. Or opportunity for someone to get hurt and sue you.

As far as @jeffwuneo replacements. The guy has blown everyone away with his knowledge and connections, and factory operation know how. I don’t doubt his first batch will be better then enertion’s 5th

Yes l certainly hope so, l always loved my raptor and hope he can do well whwn he is setup, as for wheels lam not the manufcure, just the retailer, and l see this as an intermediary for people who are at that point were they can’t ride and need somthing else till jeff finishes his moulds

That’s fair. These are definitely better then nothing for raptor owners. They just seem to be dangerous in the long run. I would maybe put a disclaimer to check over the wheels before every ride and stop riding when the thane starts cracking.

Superglue does wonders.

As soon as you notice cracking appear in the urethane, clean the wheel as best you can and drip superglue all over the cracks.

100% serious. As long as you stay on top of it, it is an excellent way to prolong the life of the wheel.

Yeah sure, not at home rn but l can get some in a few hours, what’s reason it for this thought? Just curious?

There should be markings for certain revisions, although quality remains a lottery :wink:

This. basiclly a photo showing the PU sleve thinkness will reveal what i was after
