tbf measuring something like that is a pita
When I was a kid we had to measure our pivot cups using only a small rock and the sun at noon.
You don’t know how easy you’ve got it with your fandangled digital calipers.
My Mom says hi dude…
Tell her my KFC MunchCard is empty.
I think @torqueboards has died. He has been wanted for weeks.
Thankfully his wonderful stickers will be forever with us
jokes aside i do really like Dexter and his products
Looks like a job for JB Weld. This isn’t a hard problem to fix. Hold my beer.
A hard problem to fix is POM gears that have broken teeth. Those are the real problems. You can’t fix those with JB Weld, you have to order more of the same plastic parts from Lithuania.

Hmm ok so what I think the easiest thing to do would be to cut the middle of the wheel hubs out and put a hub motor in there.
I’m keeping this analog. The way the wheels lean makes it impossible to add a motor.
The nose/tail shape of this deck looks stupid. Sucks that the hole pattern is not standard
Wouldn’t it be theoretically possible to replacing those struts on the hanger near the wheels with a motor mount that swivels? I realise thats not a very practical solution just wondering if it’s possible.
$239 is a lot but it includes those nice wheels so whatever. if you make your own deck and stuff which you as well if you are making a custom drivetrain.
@Mikenopolis were you saying that it wouldn’t work with a direct drive/hub motors? Or that you couldn’t fit a motor mount and motor anywhere near the wheel.
Anything is possible I guess.
Axle is really short and the swivel part goes into the wheel offset when turning so a regular hub motor would not work as is
How wide do you want your belts?
Brian : Yea
It does to me, how did you know?!
This isn’t my first rodeo
I got the Blade for 100 bucks! It’s in mint condition, he threw in the battered Cricket for $20! Now i gotta figure out what to do with them
Cricket is perfect for my daughter but needs a fair bit of work…
The Blade is a lot flexier than I would have thought…
At least you can finally fit those uncut belts you got?
