I’m building a second esk8 board but I think the drop through on my rayne nemesis is too low. I’m thinking of using 7" wheels (just like the ones on mountain boards). will it fit this kind of setup?
here you can see that the mount and motor are already too close to the board. I’m thinking if I use bigger wheels, I can still adjust the motor mounts away from the board but still high enough clearance from the ground.
Most (if you find a different one let me know) hubs out there don’t have the required bearing to bearing distance of just 24mm (7mm+10mm+7mm) that longboard wheels typically have. Depending on the bearing to bearing distance in the hub you use (trampa has 34mm if I remember correctly) you would need to either cut the hanger or extend the axle.
All this was reason for me to design 3D printed hubs for 6inch pneumatics.
@psychotiller Some good info, which you posted there!
I dont get why dont you ask @mmaner a permission, to post some of his build pictures on your website…
Seems like your website could use some more images from the forum / builds people have done, unless all the traffic to your site goes from this forum anyways, with people who have seen the builds already
Othwerise I think some lurking strangers accidentally finding your website might miss option to truly see the nice solution / parts you offer there (and more importantly, to see how they look once installed and used and that you got quite a good amount of clients anyways)…
Just some tips I see I would implement If I would be running the page, no offense
