how tf you put then nut on

can’t tell if that cover comes off, not a bad idea now that I’m thinking bout. Then you could pack that with grease.

Holy shit, 220 just for the hub w/ wheels. There are better option out there. Thanks but no thanks

[esk8jpn]

I bought it for the science.
Let’s see if I can improve the ride quality of the Chinese hub motor build.

Looks like there are four holes to hold whatever plate is covering the axle nut, but im skeptical about it. At the same time, if I have the money I don’t want to use seismic style hanger, proprietary bushing is pain

Hm true, but I have heard a lot of good things about these trucks and the default bushings on Exway boards

[frame]

It’s good, it’s just problematic with that bushing, there are only 3 options, Not that it’s not enough, it’s less option to run different config like the traditional ones

[ShutterShock]

True, I guess the one advantage is that they are much stronger than the standard chinese cast trucks. I guess the thing that makes them better too is that the bushing size makes it more stable.

[frame]

that’s right, same tightness allow me to go up to 53km/h with near no wobble, but I can still turn some tight corner in low speed. the design isn’t bad, just lack of bushing options is the main problem

[esk8jpn]

It arrived but was not available.
The holes in the baseplate are neither old school nor new school.

[Plurf]

You could make an adaptator plate with both to bolt this one into and the adaptator to the deck ?
This stuff looks good though, if you suceed to use them, let us know how they ride

[hummieee]

That’s ridiculous.

@esk8jpn

WTF
Seriously…

[Oddcomo]

This feel kinda like a joke… I really wanted to see how this contraption prefrom

[esk8jpn]

I’m thinking of drilling additional holes in the base plate.
Is this a bad idea that will reduce the strength of the metal?

[hummieee]

. how far the new holes be from the ones there? (i think that may be one of the hardest sentences to read)

[DavidF]

If you drill old school it should be ok

[esk8jpn]

I don’t know if that’s helpful, but that’s what I measured.

[DavidF]

Seems like they did it on purpose unfortunatly.
I think drilling holes 9mm away from where they are would weaken the spring dangerously

[Bavioze]

Just file out the hole a few mm i think, that should be ok

[longboard]

I heard this E-skateboard,seems very hot recently.Is it a new brand?
The truck and wheels are interesting,i want to build a board with these.Where can buy it?

Thanks.
