The first adaptation will be to the OG @MoeStooge Raceboard where I need to marry the
Stooge BRP hubs to the Van-K wheels! The choices will be Urethane, Urethane / Rubber Alloy and a Pneumatic

tubeless or tube?
Tube since the hubs are two part and very hard to seal. With the weight of these, the valve stem will not be a destabilizing factor.

Adapted to the @MoeStooge hubs so we can see what we got.
The board looks like a real beast with these mounted. More pictures later.

After that video of the spin up, I kind of expected an evil laugh. 
Now, the 64 million dollar question: When can the rest of us mere mortals buy a set of this 'thane for our hub of choice?

Damn that’s vicious 
I noticed the same expansion on my hummie sleeves while on the bench. Never an issue on the road though.
Do you think that being under load would alleviate this?

@MoeStooge what do you think the speed is with the 11 tooth pinion and that OG Losi gear is, pegged throttle, free spin at 80% power setting

First, free spin is much higher than achievable road speed and 6 rods locking to the hub definitely helped.
We are talking a 60a tire here!

60a is crazy soft. I want it. Really nice work Brad

There is a lot of testing to do before we can even consider this as a product and I doubt it will be hub of choice due to the need to attach the tire to the hub. The rolling resistance is super low with these, I can tell you that!

That’s the least-hideous lunchbox-on-top I think I’ve ever seen.
Oh, we were supposed to be looking at the wheels
