The roads where I live suck. 83 mm wheels suck. I am currently looking for a solution to both these problems, and it seems that channel trucks + 8in wheels or larger looks good. It doesn’t have to be elegant or expensive, just something I can mount to my board and run. If you have trucks/wheels/motor mount + wheels and pulleys/with belts or without please let me know!
What’s your price and quality range? You can get that stuff for about $280 if you’ll wait for China shipping ($120 for the drive train, $100 for motors, $60 for shipping)
I have the motors. I can fit two hundo tho
Dickyho has a channel truck kit on his eBay page but if you PM him I think he can get better motor mounts
normal trucks an 6in i think i want something a little larger…

He said he can get the motor mounts these have from the same factory, I don’t know how he does it but that’s just amazing

@dickyho can you elaborate on motor pulley shaft diameter? @ZachTetra ty didn’t know he had a 2nd store
Most motors use 8mm bore but larger motors sometimes have 10mm bores, but you can ask him for anything from 12T to 20T in aluminum or steel, or d-bore if you really need
tru that. I have 8mm shaft, but 2 flat sides. If anything, I can use the motor pulley i already have. do you think those are 15mm or 12mm belts
Pretty sure its 15mm, you can try one of these and not need a key or anything without risk of slip
What motor brand? Also can you measure the flat to flat width with some calipers? The d bore you want is 8mm by (8mm - [flat to flat width]/2])
I need to invest in a pair of calipers, they are the torque boards 6374 motors.
Hmm, calling @torqueboards who better own some calipers! Do you know the flat to flat distance on your 8mm shaft 6374 motors?
what is the difference between highway style and mountain style lol
Not 100% sure but highway is probably smooth shallow tread for asphalt and sidewalks, mountain is deep knobby tread for trails and off-road

There is a flat on the top/bottom with a key on the left/right right? We want the flat to flat distance on the top/bottom
You can also just get a steel pulley with the 3mm x 3mm key slot and key it in, I just like the d-bore more but neither will slip

Flat spot is about 30mm in length.
