Everything is completed.
D60 installed and no pops or fires nor unable to detect sensors. Took it for its maiden voyage and limped home on one motor as my pulley loctite didn’t hold.
She’s very smooth on good pavement, handling and carving with rkp is next level. It sits quite low with 115 and I’ve already hit mount motor and bolt head from mount. I think I might migrate to 155 evolve wheels in time or something with more height from axel. Still in meanwhile it’s really quiet and smooth, not powerful yet until I tune my amps and make sure nothing is loose. Would be a great racer in current form.
Update: completed some tuning. 90 amps a side for motors and 50 amps battery. The power with current ramping is very linear and board wants to blast off post 40kmh. The handling is really awesome with bn split angles, it almost feels like rear wheel steering its so different from my other boards. Motors are almost silent unlike 6374 which whine. Really loving this board, its now my favourite to ride.
Replacement 8mm bent also, just not up to the task and I got nipped on the calf during my test ride by a fast Italian greyhound… double bummer day. I thought for a second about racing him but damn that dog was fast :). Better my calf then someone’s kid.
Damn nice to have support of @glyphiks and full send electric. I’ve got 10mm axels now for the rear so handed over he bn220 hangers for some reaming out from my partners work. Let’s see how that goes :). 8mm was never going to work.
Also been looking at upgrading my board but I need to try them out, maybe a demonseed or Bustin 42 or ibach 40 who the hell knows. I need some kind of small flex.
Attempting to try and use my mbs rockstars with evolve 150s but the axel bearing for the 8mm front is doing my head in. 10mm back will be okay as I’ve ordered 28x10x8 bearings.
Just unreal!I have to watch many times to understand the path I run is under meters of water for the entire length. The goes my fun for quite some time as I’m sure the path will be damaged, still lucky to be on higher ground and really feel for those people who lost homes and cars etc. You can see the giant budda in my background pics is now in the middle of a lake.
I went for spin down the river trail on my mountainboard and got as far as racecourse road underpass before i gave up plowing thru mud on the path. Ended up with a 1 hour wash down of board to remove toxic swamp smell for all my efforts. There is serious cleanup needed.
