Dear all,
Our BERGMEISTER Easter Sale is on from April 18th - 30th . Prices will then be updated accordingly.
Shipping:
Shipping is done via EMS and takes approx. 3-7 working days to all corners of the world. Tracking information is provided by https://www.track-trace.com/post
I usually ship the same day the order is received, provided there is enough time for me to head over to the post office, which is right across from my workshop. Once all is posted I will send you a picture of the package as well as the tracking number.
Please note: There are only 10 sets left for the orange/bronze colored rims and all other colors are also limited in quantity, so if that particular color rocks your boat…hurry up.
For purchase, please follow this link: https://haggyboard.com/products/bergmeister-all-terrain-complete-pneumatic-wheel-set-150mm-diameter?variant=18489922650227
In the meantime, a newly designed “ press-fit ” 55T pulley has been designed. The pulley works with both TB218 as well as Evolve GT trucks with 15mm wide HDT 5mm timing belts.
The design is based on @riako’s initial press fit pulley idea. Thanks for the inspiration Kevin!

Feel free to modify it to suit your needs and hopefully you can share your modified design with the community. ( However, we do not recommend using 3d printed pulleys unless you have a super strong filament to print with )
For use with
-
TB218 trucks, use the following pulley bearing: —> 638z (8mm inner diameter / 28mm outer diameter / 9mm width)
-
Evolve GT trucks, use the following pulley bearing: —> 16100 2z (10mm inner diameter / 28mm outer diameter / 8mm width) + 3x 1mm spacers/washers
We have had some hiccups with the production of our pulleys, so there will be a delay of a couple of weeks before we can offer them for sale on our webshop at www.haggyboard.com . We will have the pulleys CNC milled out of a solid piece of black colored POM, with an approx. weight of 68gr. (At 178gr. aluminum would be more than double the weight and would not offer significantly more advantages, so we will stick to POM).
If you use the Kahua or Surfrodz 90mm trucks, then our 60T pulley + adapter plate works perfectly:
As always, if you have any questions, feel free to either send me a pm on the forum or mail me at [email protected]
Thanks and best regards from Taiwan,
Timo
P.S. One more thing I would like to share with you:
There is a particular CNC company from our dearest neighbouring mainland China that is rather keen on selling what look to be our Bergmeister rims.
Just to let you know: there is a reason (actually many reasons) why a long long time ago we have ditched that company entirely and all those reasons relate to material quality, CNC machining quality & safety (and evidently trustworthiness).
Feel free to purchase these rims and try your luck, probably at a super low price as they are sitting on a huge pile of useless rims that we have all rejected and which they are now desperately trying to sell.
Just please do me a favor: If you do purchase them, kindly do not refer to them as Bergmeister rims and don’t ask me for any support. Many thanks!
Be warned: you will not get what you expect and you will be disappointed. Also, if you consider using that lovely company for your own CNC milled components, this is a perfect example for you to see what can (and will likely) happen with designs given to them.
Welcome to China
