Can you please explain what changes have been done to make it 40-50% stronger?

206

We used a stronger steel for the axle than the previous versions.

@Gerrycorrado Nothing is wrong with them at all. I just decided to strengthen the axles even more.

Ok so I already messaged @legend27 but I’m going to announce it on here again… I would like to drop out of the GB bc more than 1 month is too long for me… The season is beginning and I really want to get on the road again… :slight_smile: If anyone wants a place in the GB here you go… :slight_smile:
@ron

Thank you @legend27 for organizing this whole thing and @torqueboards for your transparency… :slight_smile:

Since @Mich21050 have decided to leave, do you want to participate instead of him?

If so where are you located? Then I’ll calculate the total cost :slight_smile:

Okay. I did the calculations.

Please send me 570DKK (595DKK for G&S) via the link below. I recommend to select “Card issuer” as who determines the currency value, as it will be a bit cheaper (at least in Denmark it is).

In the message box please write your:

  • Forum username
  • Address
  • E-mail
  • Phone number

Payment link: Paypal.me/Frederik11 (Please select “DKK” as the currency)

Thanks for participating!

In case you’re wondering. 570DKK is equal to 570DKK/€7,46=€76,4

Guys I would need your help. I am making a custom truck hanger that I am gonna use it with the 5B truck base plate. I would need to know the diameter and the lenght of the pivot cup part. I mean the sferical part that slide inside the base plate. Thank you! I thought to ask here since probably someone has already the trucks.

@rey8801 that’s sounds interesting :blush: I haven’t got any measurements, but I did find this while looking for pivot cup dimensions for something completely different. Non powered.

Scroll down till you see the “schematic” . I believe it uses the same dimensions as caliber II’s And please share what you’re making :grin:

Perfect it has the same pivot size of Paris truck. So I already mdoelwd like that. Thanks for the info. BTW I am making another direct drive. First one MAD Fury kit coversion (look in the forum), now I will make it one from scratch, way overpowered :smile: it will go with the custom deck I am making (BullyDeck)

A little insight of the 3d printed test fit comparison with the one I have just made it which is already really strong.

The one I have made already uses 6355 motors… So you can judge by the picture the size of the upcoming one… I am bit scared about to be honest, but I have started already so why not :laughing:

@legend27 since it is delayed, do you think you can add more slots in the groupbuy :grimacing:

225

Unfortunately not :pensive:

Short reason: it will change the prices and the deal with TB was 15 sets.

You are noted number 1 in the que though :slight_smile:
