    3DM Avila 75mm 73A: wheel pulley

    You have found plush wheel nirvana. I have been cruising on Avilas for 10 years. Abec 11 Gumballs in 75a are a close second. I am waiting for the day someone comes up with a system to attach a pulley without drilling... How are the Kegels in comparison to the Avilas? I know people already...

    First build: 12S, Single 6374, Hi5ber Zenith

    Yeah I went to Torque first... he said his were 12mm - he explained that running dual rear 15mm pulleys makes fitment too tight. I have tried both 15mm and 9mm belts on a single motor setup, and found the 9mm setup lacking when it came to braking performance (it slipped all the time). My 15mm...

    First build: 12S, Single 6374, Hi5ber Zenith

    Aaaand the search continues for the elusive 15mm drive wheel pulley / wheel mount combo. I tried to purchase similar parts from the Metroboard guy and he refuses to sell parts to anyone who can't prove they own one of his boards already... Hoping someone with the necessary skills will...

    First build: 12S, Single 6374, Hi5ber Zenith

    Killer build. Where did you get the (15mm?) 36t wheel pulley and how are you attaching it to your drive wheel?

    37" Dusters Cruiser Build

    Awesome... I am not a fan of Speed Vents or any other large cored wheel due to a more harsh ride quality. I use 76mm 75a Abec 11 Gumballs on my Red Rock LaGrange setup, and I have yet to find a wheel that gives a cushier/smoother ride. Even my 90mm 75a Flywheels do not compare. The Flywheels...

    37" Dusters Cruiser Build

    First off: Way to go on the gift for one of the most important people in your life... the one watching your kids. You are a good dude! Couple of questions: 1. How are you attaching the wheel pulley to the wheel? 2. Does the tensioner help/hinder slip issues or braking? I have tried 7mm belt...

    How are you avoiding massive wheelbite running 90mm wheels? What thickness of risers are you using?

    Hi Jacob, I would also buy a couple of sets from you if you do a run. Thanks and keep up the good work! :D

    Tacon Bigfoot Speed

    I run a Tacon Bigfoot 160 with a Castle XL2 ESC (8s max) on my Red Rock Boardshop LaGrange Setup. I use a formula in Excel so I can plug in different parameters (motor kv / wheel size / gearing / voltage) and it will give me approximate speed in mph. Here are some combos I have tried and have...

    10S custom skate ESC: testers wanted!

    Is the amp draw really high at startup? Would it be possible to make sure the capacitors can be easily swapped out?

    How to check if your motor fried

    Did you change or alter the connectors on the 3 wires coming out of the motor? I just ran into this problem... I removed old connectors, and then forgot to burn off the insulation that covers the motor wire, so when I crimped on my new connectors the motor wire insulation kept me from having a...

    made a video of my tiny skateboards in actions

    lol... I'll tell you how... 1/4" soft risers, low duro (75a) wheels with small cores and loads of urethane depth. That's my biggest gripe with all of the kits... lack of choice for compatible wheels. I went with a Lagrange L1 truck mostly because I can use any wheel I want... so I have 76a...

    Wireless Wii Nunchuck *TESTERS WANTED

    I'll take another one, guys. It's funny... I seemed to get flagged down by curious onlookers every trip out now, versus almost never when I was using my old bulky black "gun" remote control. It seems the little white Nyko nunchuk in your hand is a lot less intimidating to people. Pm'ing...

    Electric Bubble Gum board mk1

    I really like your design, it looks super clean. Have you had a chance to test the acceleration at 7s? With such a short wheelbase it seems like it could get a little squirrely at launch :lol: I've been riding longboards for years, and even still I have to brace myself for that initial...

    Destroyer 12s Urban Racer Build

    Thanks so much for the video! I finally am getting an idea of what 39kph / 24mph will look like from the deck of a longboard, and to tell you the truth it scares the piss out of me. Which is exactly why I'm building one of these things! :mrgreen: But in all seriousness... that speed seems...
