Damn @xsynatic your memory be godlike.

@Ricco what modifications did you do to make them fit? Do you have to cut the bolts?
And do you install them with a deflated tire?

This is awesome. I’m trying to do something similar for my board with the text being a part of the design.

Don’t be sorry! It’s not my cup of tea, but i’m sure there are flat deck lovers out there!

I’ve decided to sell it, definitely need the money right now, and hopefully it goes to somebody who will love it very much.

Damn, with my build if I went single stack I think I could fit 16-20 cells max, that is accounting for forward mounting the motors though.

Yeah forward mounting the motor takes up valuable space, and it’s hidden undere the kicktail anyway. I could’ve gone double stack if i wanted, but it like the slim look. I don’t have a BMS at this point though, just a balacing board, I was running out of space. Enclosure V2 is already in the works though, with space for a BMS.

i wasted a lot of material figuring out how to make it happen xD

Saw it; don’t know wtf I’m looking at yet

a potato of course.

That’s not meth…

Word. It’s a fucking beautiful deck in so many ways. If my stupid rear calf didn’t require a deep drop and aggressive concave to not freak out, I would have been all over this thing. Perfect length as well.

I would turn those wires around the other way

They’re going to Linny to complete my TB40. Needless to say, they’ll be set up properly.

For the chains on the front tire I uniformly shortened the length down to 12 links and the width to 5 links.

For the chains on the back tires I had to make the mods non symmetrical due to the gear drives. Those have 20 links on the drive side and 12 links on the outside. The width was uniformly shortened to 3 links.

I consolidated all of the crosslinks of the original chains into the modded ones so they have 12 crosslinks each.

To take links out I had to cut them with a rotory tool. To move the crosslinks around I used some pliers to spread the hooked ends open and pinch them shut when I got them in place.

I do install them on deflated tires. Once they are inflated the chains are held really tightly in place. The one issue im having is that one link gets stuck between the drive and tire sometimes. I think a 3D printed guard will solve that though.

Is the wheelbase under 16"?

Does it have a single stack?

Idk what 16" are but from axle to axle its 54cm :smiley: And yeah, single stack, as I

said.

X 25.4 for mm, so 406.4mm
(I was shocked also, FUB nos. from @b264.)

Thank you!

Need a photo

Also wheelbase is truck bolt center (rear truck, front bolt) to truck bolt (front truck, rear bolt) center, not axle to axle.
