Where to buy off-road components?


After stepping out of the hobby for nearly 5 years due to legality issues where I live, I’ve decided the dust on my beautiful dual drive street board wasn’t doing it justice. After replacing one group in the battery, I can once again risk my skin for the pleasure of adrenaline.

Before the “break”, off-road boards had always intrigued me, but now I’m more interested than ever, as I am really disliking cracks, bumps, and tiled bike paths on my PU wheels, so I want to rebuild my board to have pneumatic wheels. For that I assume I need a new deck, trucks, motor mounts, pulleys and belts. I just can’t seem to find vendors that are selling relatively inexpensive parts, or full kits to which I can just mount my motors to and slap a new deck on and go.

What shops can you guys recommend to buy off-road parts from? I live in Europe, but ordering from abroad isn’t a huge concern. I have dual Torqueboards 6355 190kv motors. Thanks!

Nice board! Welcome back. I would advise you to keep this one, always good to have both styles in hand for a change.

Vendors i usually buy:

And always, riptide for bushings.

Have they fixed their website yet?

To the OP though, I’d say scour the forum parts market category. You can find some great parts and great deals, maybe even some unobtanium.

Its a clunky website…i think they changed recently but to my opinion its even harder to find things…but its usable. I bought a 60t pulley there recently.

I would suggest just adding MAD wheels from @fujio001 to this set up and calling it good.

Either the V2 105s or the new MAD Max 125.

Their grip and comfort are probably 100 times better than your existing wheels

To get pneumatic tires on here I think you would need trucks and hubs and pulleys…

And may be tricky with this deck.

How TF is a smooth thane wheel related to off-roading?

OP did mention “really disliking cracks, bumps, and tiled bike paths” so the suggestion of 125mm thanes might actually be enough to get by his needs without a full rebuild.

MBS would have all the stuff you need but like Raf said if you’re looking for more bumpy road comfort some bigger wheels like the MAD 125’s might be a nice compromise.

125mm can handle small bumps maybe, but really only pneumatics can confirm to terrain

@Quiles thanks for the list! I’ll take a look at the options.

@rafaelinmissouri great suggestion actually! My main goal is a smoother road setup, so if I can achieve that with only new wheels and maybe a new pulley, I’d be quite satisfied. Did you notice a big difference compared to say 90mm wheels?

Bioboards is good, MBS is good. ATBshop has components.

There is acedeck, exway, onsra, evolve, meepo etc here also.

It’s a far more significant difference than you could imagine.

I have had giant urethane wheels. 100,110.

And the MAD wheels are far superior.
Like way above and beyond.

It’s kinda of a rubberized urethane. @fujio001 can maybe make comments on the compound used.

So you have the compound itself. But also the construction with the holes.

So these wheels do 2 things way better than regular urethane.
***Vibration Dampening.
***Grip.

I have the V1s and the MAD Max and I probably need another set soon…

If you do want to go the direction of pneumatics I think you should look at the TKP type trucks many of the Chinese companies offer.

The TKP extendeds the wheels base.

It may still be tricky with your deck.

DKP trucks also could work. But I think it would make it too tall.

Here is an example.

More on the pricey side…

Most of the Chinese companies have some sort of tkp.

Here is on the lower end
