@rey8801 I think I got it but can you confirm this is a valid way to measure/set truck angle?

BTW I can’t believe how meticulous you were with the slot the kingpin nut slides into. P-E-R-F-E-C-T fit. :heart_eyes:

Riptide Caliber II pivot cups working for me for MF hanger and for TB218 hanger.

I can confirm: good way to measure truck angles.

Perfect way. I also have the same angle meter and I was still using a manual ruler :triangular_ruler: :man_facepalming:
Anyhow when the front edges are flushing is 50 degree, then every steps is about 5 degree adjustments so you can also count :+1:
Don’t tell me about the nut because I measured so many of them and was always wrong once made the parts. That part was quite tricky indeed. I was happy when the magic numbers came together

with @3DServisas fatboy

these and the nano drives make my evo usable with only 5mm of risers! :heart_eyes:

I couldn’t do this before ~7mm clearance at max lean


@rey8801 I want more, I really like how quick I can swap hangers, no more messing with kingpins ruining settings - I want a thane set and a pneumatic set, sign me up for more ! :smile:

Edit: was only 5mm risers

Man that was the whole idea
Minimized stupid tall raisers and run assymetrical deck easier than ever. I am really happy it works out for you too!

Ya dude. I think you might already have a market for another round! Have you started planning for that? I know myself and @stratoglide are each in for a pair. Same city just saying…
Do you have a timeline @rey8801 for making more of these?
Cheers broski.

Run another GB is not a problem, but as I said I want some feedbacks first. No reason to remake it the same if you can improve it a bit. If not needed, then it will be even faster.

Mmmm after having a play with them, I might want another set for an Evo too, which is designed around 35deg baseplates? (thanks @sk8l8r)

Extras of the hangar part might be nice too, to swap out drivetrains easily for A/B testing. Maybe. It’s addictive how easy it is to swap things around.

Is that a blood orange stepped barrel poking through or the narrow end of a cone?

Hi! Since the first time was a really short GB that was open for like 2 days due to me wanted the parts :grin:
Here a second round. I will leave it open for a good 7-10 days. Closes on 30/06/19
You can go through this and the other forum threads to see all the story and pictures, but here a brief summary.
Some pictures are from the guys from the 1st GB, You can recognised them since they are better than mine :sweat_smile: Thx for them guys!

1 set includes 2 base plates + kingpins, nuts and bolts (fine for a board), it can be Raw or Matt Black.
Price 135$ + shipping. Based on the 1st GB 21 Euro shipping to US and from 6 to 20 Euro to EU. rest of the world depends where you are. Of course I can put them in bigger box and ship them together to US and shipping goes down a lot.

Here the form and let’s see if we get to a decent number to make it happen again. Thx everyone!

The hardest decision is what colour to get :joy:

Is it USD or EUR? oh who cares throws money at screen

Ahahaha depends yoir build. I love raw but for sure the anodized black is sick. So if you have raw trucks then raw is the choice, otherwise black fits with everything.

Price is as listed no mistakes there :wink:

I can swap out the hangers without messing with kingpins :wink:

Ah I see… And with hangar you mean motors too? That would be interesting!
If you can make easy motor ohase connectors outside the enclosure will be really cool.
