I´m creating this thread only to see if there would be any intress in buying CNC´d aluminium hubs for skateboard trucks. So far I only got one set done for my personal build.

They are based on my 3d printed hubs for trampa tires. And could be lathe/milled for 6-9" tires or whatever size you want. I could also provide 3d printed pulleys or aluminium pulleys any size you want…

I´m not pricing them yet but could give an estimated price range. For a set of 4 alu hubs would be somewhere between 150-200€ + shipping. (not included pulleys, bearings and tires.)

Additional info : T6 6082 aluminium 6" hubs one piece = ~350g without tires and bearings. Going to try to get them a bit lighter… For the 6" the 6 m5 screw holes would be visible. 7" and up they would not be visible. Just like my 3d printed hubs. Shipped from EU

Here´s some pics. (note that the 6 m5 screws are missing because I dind´t find a m5*0.8 tapp)

Is that 8-10 or 12 mm axle? As I said. No final price yet but around 150-200€ excl shipping

Those look great, before selling any I would do some serious road testing, speed testing on them first so you can tell people what they’re capable of.

Only problem we have 2 feet of snow for the moment :confused: Will think of something. Maybe ship a few out for some testing to trusted forum members

Yes I know that. And they are sick. I printed those hubs over 2 years ago and planed to make them into aluminium since then. Just got around to do it. Hoping you won’t mind me touching the market with a second option of hubs?
