Ughhhh this is so clean :drooling_face:

You guys should consider selling this as a complete, or semi-complete (without battery) for U.S customers.

Heck, Iā€™d love to just buy sturdy mounts for lights like that

I had to install some wider trucks to be able to ride it. I think I might be able to use the smaller ones after I get better at balancing and my ankles get stronger. I am slowly increasing the top speed limit but hereā€™s a video of some testing. It feels really nice on the carves ezgif.com-gif-maker

Did you heat up the liquid? Something something i used water, a whole bottle of rit, a cup of vinegar, and a pump of soap, and periodically heated up the liquid so itā€™s at a soft boil.

I poured boiling water into that plastic bin, and added a whole bottle of dye, no dish soap or vinegar. It was a fail. :cry:. I realize I used the wrong dye.

I shouldā€™ve used the dye for synthetics. Also, Iā€™ll go get an old pot from a secondhand store and put on my camp stove in the garage to maintain the heat. (I was gonna use the stove in the kitchen, but when the wife realized what I was doing, she kicked me out of thereā˜¹ļø

Ah yea thatā€™s the wrong dye, it will make it darker a bit, but not black.

Double the synthetic dye to water ratio and use the soap and vinegar and it will be a great success!

i happen to love the green wheels! I wonder if the black dye will darken the logo?

ā€¦that might actually be one of the cheaper options for drop brackets, if you flipped em over and mounted them in the right place.
