I bid you good luck sir. Give it hell, I’m sure it’ll be a beaut.

I got the X1 Max, I was really amazed with how well built it was. It’s the cleanest looking board out there. I thought I would flex that deck the second I stepped on it. Thing is solid!

I am also super surprised at the strength of the deck. Especially after seeing inside it. The base beneath the battery is only like 2-3mm thick, but the deck is still surprisingly stiff.

I’m super tempted to cut it up and see what magic is inside

my x1pro died exactly when ODO hit 1000km, it was not fun, but i should be glad that i was only 600m from home

you should look up max capps on Instagram, he cuts out the middle of boards and makes them foam core.

This is super awesome. Please show us, how have you connected the wheel to the timing belt?

It’s an interesting solution with sort of clamping in the bearing seat of the wheel. This way any skateboard wheel will fit but it can slip under high torque…

:flushed:

You should make a thread on that adapter/pulley and where one could obtain some of them.

Are there bearings inside the wheel?

It’s not my design. They are LaGrange L1 Trucks from 2012 xD

It’s an esk8 relict now.

Not on the driven wheel. The bearings are on the axle, that goes through the whole hanger.
Actually, the other wheel could be driven too, if I take the bearings out and replace them with solid metal.

I did not notice the super thicc hanger LOL. I definitely see it now

1WD sucks though, I hope there aren’t a lot of left turns on your paths. I’d make the left wheel driven too. :smiley: Otherwise, really cool hardware!

@glyphiks – what’s happening here? Is that enamel in the syringe or some acrylic?

Epoxy. Filling up the voids in the 3d print. Once it’s cured i’ll give it a little sand and a clearcoat.

I may or may not have drilled holes in the wrong spot on an enclosure… badges will fix it :sweat_smile:

It’s okay for me. I rode a 1WD as my main board for 3 years :slight_smile:
But I agree, 2wd is better xd

Depends what you’re optimizing for.

If you’re optimizing for weight, then 2WD sucks :crazy_face:

Tanuki sunset?

Fuuuuuuck, if I had this I would use Venom Magnums wheels. Would also be dope for actual slide wheels

Venum Magnum Mach1 already have pulleys available
