So I would use locktite on both the axle grub screws. Should I use it for the wheel pulley too? What about the motor screws?
Are these an alternative to locktite in cases where nuts are used?
loctite on every arrow.
Orange are the motor screws once the motor is mounted and in the right position.
Yellow on the opposite site of the red one next to it.
Your axle nuts donât need loctite. Thats what the nylock nut is for
phillips head screw on outside of the hub
Now thatâs an Instruction even better than IKEAs
Do you have a Link for 243 locktite?
Just your typical Amazon/Ebay search link.
I bought mine from aliexpress and some locally i think.
The loctite from china is a knockoff thats more like glue but still works. 50ml for 5⏠i think.
Good one, Niclas.
mine looked like this. It even is quality from locttlf instead of henhel or even henkel
this is what arrived
(bought fully knowing that itâs a cheap knockoff) But hey, it works
How are you supposed to flex with it when thereâs not even the stickers?
Nobody is going to believe you, you have some real and pure LOCTTLF there.
Even I donât know if I should trust you⌠Many people buy the cheap fake LOCTTLF out there not knowing you must have the LOCTTLF quality label hahaha
Iâm gonna get one too!
Maybe I get the rare quality by LOCTTLFâŚ
Quality by Henhel would be okay too
Sadly shipping time is really long⌠Until June
Would you maybe sell me your awesome LOCTTLF quality LOCTTLF loctite? @xsynatic
Iâll treat it like itâs holy water
anyone?
Sorry, man. Doesnât ring a bell.
Weird⌠I just donât want to get scammed of my hubs.
but thanks for the reply
On another topic⌠After a veery long time i jumped on my 95% broken bike and reaslised again how much âfunâ it can be to ride everywhere and not be a criminal. (well except my sore ass and legs)
With my allergy in the back of my head i thoughtâŚmaybe an e-bike would be another option to my boards.
The question is :
buy e-bike
buy e-bike and modify it (speed, range, power)
build e-bike
(iâm not sure about the last option legal wise. If your e-bike needs certifications or so)
- build e-bike
- buy e-bike
- buy e-bike and modify it

@SeanHacker recently bought an e-bike and seems to like it. Mayhaps he will share his thoughts with you.
that would be nice. Things i have to keep in mind is : ebikes are only allowed to drive up to 6km/h on itâs own. If they can ride over 6km/h they need insurance and i think you need a license. Push assist bikes are allowed up to 20 or 25km/h.
my plan obviously is being able to ride with more than 6km/h without my input. (vesc and metr for the win iâd say) but i have no idea how to realize that.
Also, keep in mind youâre going nowhere building this yourself. You could buy a kit from China, but these are hub motors⌠Would buy one and maybe make the battery yourself cause they overprice them (as anything in germany).
Well youâre not going nowhere, but I donât think itâs actually easy to make a motor with gearing and all thatâŚ
Yeah i had the hubmotors in mind, they are pretty plug and play. Battery i could use my esk8 ones if the voltage fits.
Voltage fits, 10S-12S is standard I think
You guys think plastic wrap is conductive?
I put the plastic wrap between my silicone packed battery so the silicone can form to the shape of the deck without becoming stuck to it⌠And I donât feel like taking the enclosure off again O.o
I can easily rip off the extra pieces hanging off the sides⌠But you guys know Iâm lazy
