Rear scooter wheel longboard conversion prototype

Been experimenting with a third wheel conversion that has a physical emergency brake for when SHTF.
Any thoughts? I’ve never done anything like this before.
The motor gear is 22T
200mm wheel is 72T
Top speed should be about 50mph.

I loved the mechanical brake on my first board/monster. Unfortunately the love stopped there haha


The rubber brake drums wear out fast at high speed so definitely use it like you said, when SHTF

Easy keyboard warrior, this was before I knew esk8 was even a thing. Here in the midwest, I have never seen another person riding an electric skateboard so I did what I could with what I had.

This is my current board, dick.

And my second board that’s almost done, extra dick.

How do you feel about making me 50% more sad?

Just kidding today’s been a great day. I love you and hope you have an extra special day as well.

Those pictures are gorgeous. I need to ditch these belts and just go spur gears. Compact rear wheel.
