I decided to repurpose my first build after I make a backup/2nd board since my deck is much too flexy for speed and it is just a bit not the right feeling for me, and I want an actual mtb and an actual street board, what I should’ve done from the start. Make two boards 1 mtb 1 street.
Geared for ~35mph loaded. Hopefully the belts don’t slip any. Originally figured I should go with a gear drive, but couldn’t decide on which I wanted. Few reasons for this: 13s build, gearing, wheel options, compatibility. Fatboy urethane v4 drive make sense, but need to buy extra baseplates (their adjustable base plates were my choice (+$150 on the already $565 coming to over $700), then Avio MK2 herringbone drive, mainly clearance made me weary on this one, but price too. (Drive and everything would be nearly $900 for everything needed (for use with TB110s)), now taking me to belt as a choice ($290 for non-CNC trucks system. $390 for CNC trucks system (no belts)). This makes a lot more sense considering I can’t think of a cheaper setup to fit 6380s both in same direction. Price here makes more sense (May be less suiting but is still high quality enough for sure, but way cheaper.) My existing experience with gear drives (bad experiences) also push me to belt drive,I will be missing the “instant” torque.
It would make more sense to use 190kv and use a 15:44 ratio over 170kv 16:42 but I already have the 170kvs 
It would make even more sense to use a gear drive considering it will be 13s the amount of torque will be insane considering it is geared for 35, using belts I hope there is no slippage. Decent but not too fast. I don’t want to ever hit 40. Plus I really like torque. Pull the throttle and zoom you go, if it were geared lower I would think if I did a pull it would reach top speed in a second which is no fun, what is more fun is reaching a higher speed at a fast pace, than a much slower speed at a super fast pace.
Plans:
Deck: Landyachtz evo falcon 40" ($150) (Getting Senderized +$200-$300 (I hope))
Battery: 13s5p 30Q (say at $3.5 a cell rough cost of $227) (Needs welding and wiring)
ESC: 2x Focboxes v1.6 ($260 @Ace)
Enclosure: @eBoosted Evo Falcon enclosure ($125 + $20 + $15 = $160)
Motors: 2x TB 6380 170kv ($270)
Drive setup: TB 110 Blues ($110), TB 218 Trucks ($65), 3dservisas 42t wheel pulleys ($88), TB 16t motor pulleys ($33), TB Mounts ($120), Extra crossbar ($35), Belts ($32) ~ $496
*Extras: Metr pro ($60)
Misc: 13s BMS ($20), 13s Charger ($50)
Rough cost – $1,700+ (minus senderization +$200-$300)
12/31 - Just ordered most of my drivetrain parts from TB and the 3dservisas pulley. Just the metr pro left (later on). From here it is mainly just waiting for my enclosure then sending it off to Tim with the deck. Then more waiting. Welding 12 out of 13 P groups together while deck is being skinned, and finishing battery off when I get my deck back. Then the board will be done. Sounds simple but I know it will end up much more hard than it needs to be.
1/22 - Everything is basically here, been busy so haven’t shipped my deck out yet, so gonna be awhile. Also still need to order some nickel strip. As well as some set screws for the TB pulleys, cus I am using a shortened shaft. And some proper front truck axle spacers instead of using 10 copper washers. Forgot to order deck hardware and messed up a bearing so gonna have to order new ones.
Plus I don’t have caliber baseplates lying around.
