@rosco cheers also :call_me_hand:t2:

Thanks guys that def points me in the right direction. I’m about 85kg (90 after the holidays :nauseated_face: ) and right now i have reds back and very soft yellow on the front, which was an experiment to compensate the stiffer back truck. Works very well, no wobbles and still be able to take a sharp curve without having to get off(=annoying)

btw Rosco; Nice goin on the board there :slightly_smiling_face: putting the Ripper on the deck again ? Bottom maybe ?

:grin: :call_me_hand:t2:

First decent off road outing in late ‘22 found gremlins. ABS Overcurrent faults on one motor. Hadn’t fitted the MBS heelstraps yet either which woulda been a good idea.

Back home from summer beach holidays now and found the cause of faults… :+1:

Don’t be lazy like me.
Never trust stock phase connectors.


Heelstraps fitted now too :call_me_hand:

Damn dude! That could have ended worse :grimacing:

Glad you found the gremlin!

:joy: It seems like a better name. Maybe more specifically it could be APPARITION

Shitty banana type bullets replaced with the better solid ones and faulty soldering on the stock ones eliminated. Test ride and no more ABS overcurrent faults :blush: :call_me_hand:

Night at the indoor cart track next week, so back onto the hubba/xcell wheel set till then.

Still getting used to riding with bindings, hopefully helps on the tight corners on track and doesn’t cause any issues if I come off :grimacing:

In progress

Yeah baby. Ditch that helical shit.

What gear ratio are your straight cuts?

3.8 ratio dude.

Pinion removal went well, but then got stalled because I couldn’t find the dremel bit I needed to lengthen the motor mounting holes.

Probably need another 4 or 5mm of length to bring the motor pinion closer to the big hub gear. Hardware shop today.

Might need to dremel the motor mount slots for proper mesh

Supa Karts indoor track night was awesome :call_me_hand:
Board went well, excel RS were really grippy and bindings helped with the tight corners.
Really happy with how it performed :blush:

What’s wrong with helical? I alway sthought it was better (and more silent)
