Blue Loc-tite your radius rod to axel post mounting bolts. Check for tight before and after you ride…
SRB web-store up and running
Heck yeah Website looks awesome.
I Can’t wait to see more boards with these! It’s amazing seeing how much these have changed in just the past year alone. Last year you had to wait patiently for your name to come up in line, now you can buy them in stock and have it shipped in a couple days.
In fact 0.388" ( 9,855 mm or 986 µm) is the correct size for a 10 mm shaft/axle when it’s disgned with a g6 fit (ISO 286-2) in mind.
The g6 fit would be called “enger Laufsitz” in Germany - translates to close running fit (?) I think this fitment should be appropriate for this application.
Web-store now has 1/8" chromoly long plate kits, short plate kits, bushings added and in stock.
93mm Wheels and widening kits will be added and available by the weekend.
Short Motor plates are In. Minimises plate to board interference with the open gear drive. Could be room for belts there.
Dedicated open drive Spur gear in the works.
Amazing
Can the angles account for it? not sure they could be turned down enough in the rear. Maybe you could get away with one of the stock holes up front and make a custom rod end mounting plate for the rear.
Just a thought, or maybe it could be flipped backwards and you could get something to work like that.
Yuup. This! Rotate the rear truck 180deg. Motor mounts will go naturally out the back.
Front truck face normal but relocate bars on topside of the axel. You will need to check tire to deck clearance

any reasons why I shouldn’t put 3-link on mountain board like Haero?

Trail riding yes. Jumps no bueno!
Looking at this closer, also flip the front truck 180 and adjust in a 45 deg bar angle…
I have a mountain board deck sitting here waiting to be set up so I can try that out!
might want to push them around one more time before electrifying.
@Fosterqc looking fwd to seeing this.
Get some pics up on this as I have one in my head of how these will work.
Think I will seek out a MB deck as the more I think about it the more I like this possible application.
I must be confused, but wouldn’t that turn the wrong way if the links went forward?
You’re not alone I wondered the same thing…
With the plates reversed, If the links were going downhill to the axel it would have backward steering.
We ran the world record board in this configuration a few years ago at 63mph.

Front setup may need some more tweeking.
By a wedge plate or dropping the main spherical
Bearing ride height to make the angle around 40deg. 20 is not enough.
Best solution would be to run a longer pan head bolt out of the collar and stack more spacers accordingly.
Does that mean that someone rode at 63mph with the steering reversed? Lean left, turn right? (!)
Rear trucks 180 degrees? Wouldn’t that reverse the steering for the rear?
Nope, I’m thinking of building street carver with 3-link. Was originally planning to use Hypertrucks, but I don’t think I can get those guys to sell me the trucks by themselves and without the MBS Rockstar hubs, motor plates, and all the other crap I don’t want.
@MoeStooge if you get this mountain carver setup working, you can count me in on a set.
@MYKC I talked lacroix into selling me the trucks without wheels and tires. They do work with you.
How’d you get a hold of them? I tried messaging them off their website, crickets.
But whatever, I prefer 3-links and would go with them if I can make them work with my Haero.
