How do you like those? Are they a diffuse red or a spotlight style red?

I have only tried the white SL-200 and the red and white older style.

How do the 155mm wheels ride? I bought the purple 175mm ones because 50% discount.

they feel good actually. only took it up to like 25 mph. Iā€™ll kick it up to 30+ tmr for the real test. 16/47t i donā€™t really feel a difference in torque though coming from 16/60t.

Might just pick up a set and put away the 175ā€™s for lower kV motors. Still deciding.

this was a ā€œi just want to rideā€ purchase. one of my six-shooters got damaged so i purchased theseā€¦I can always use them on my CGT rebuild if i decide to get something else.

Well, I can either go 155mm tyres on wide hubs to give me ~145mm wheels, or 175mm on wide hubs to give me ~165mm wheels, which is the size I have now with a larger contact patch.

Yeah Bro, thatā€™s one of my secret gardens where I go and meditate. German manufacturers (like any Teutonic entity) exudes a level of engineering above the rest on almost anything they create.

Is sad that for the moment 1166 Longboards and 313 Skateboards are closed down for business until further notice. Is not that these guys went broke or smthng, but they have professional lives and seems this is only their alternate seasonal passion. They appear now and then, make a few boards for a few lucky riders and then dissapear again for a year or two.

Contacted them for this footstop :point_down:, they said ā€œsorry boi, we on sabbaticalā€. Still, managed to find someone who is gonna do one x me just like that. :grin::wink:

Yeah, is inspirational. I surf those sites for hours. Different perspective. Different creative approach. Different school of design. Germans rock. :de:

I see that you and I share the same inclination for these type of boards, @kook. This been my baby :point_down: x quite a while, further away from most common trends or Esk8 platforms that you see around here. My own Hawaiian LDP 44" exotic chic from the south seas :yum: on her way to an Esk8 convertion. Very slow so is taking for Eva.

I usually donā€™t worry if the platform is suitable for DIY convertion or not, most important for me is if is unique. Iā€™ll worry about technical hurddles later. There are always ways to get around.
