Background info & FAQs
  • Where did these came from? Primarily from Nexus Boards who used to distribute (among other brands) Boardnamics products in UK and EU. They closed shop ~1.5 years ago. This is their overstock, except converted from helical to straight cut.
  • Why do the motor pinions look different? BN was done with quantity runs of custom gears. For these, Kevin modified a standard gear to shorten the collar. Cosmetically different but functionally equivalent.
  • Any Abec wheel adapters? No. Only Kegel.
  • Speaking of the wheel adapters, they have a 6900RS bearing installed - for 10mm axle. If you wish to run on a pure 8mm axle (BN220) it will need to be replaced with a 608RS bearing. I am willing to do that upon request.
  • M1-AT ? Still no. Street drives only.
  • Warranty offered? No. My only guarantee is these will go RREEEEEE and put a smile on your face.

I am willing to do International shipping. Provide an address and I will get you a quote.

I can accept payment thru Paypal, Venmo, Cashapp, and Zelle.

Glad to see these finally listed Neil! It feels like years ago when we first approached Kevball about those gears :joy::man_facepalming:

For anyone who needs to hear it: I’ve known Neil for years, he’s a member of the PDX esk8 community. He’s a good dude who wont ghost you. And if he does, just hit me up, I know where he lives :smiling_face_with_horns:

I’m looking for a geardrive kit that fits flipsky 15.22 inch trucks . These were listed as a potential fit but I don’t think so.

Indeed I think those trucks are not compatible.

One option i thought of is to have a spacer made and welded on to close the gap do to improper fitment . The gap is 1 inch and the circumference where the bracket actually mounts is almost 6 inches

I would strongly advise using a drive made for whatever trucks you’re using. Or using trucks made for whatever drive you’re using.
