Hi, I want to build an electric longboard but find it very difficult to find the parts I need to achieve what I want. I have therefore chosen to look at various kits that contain most of what I need, but since I have no experience in electric longboarding, I hope you with more experience can come up with some input.
I want to build a board that has good range (25km ish) and a top speed of around 50km / h. Do you think it is possible to achieve these requirements with a budget of 1350 $ / 1200 €?
I’ve looked at different kits, which I’ll link to at the end of this post.
I can also say that I live in Norway, so it would be very good if it is possible to send to Norway
I am about 188cm tall and weigh about 90kg.
One big plus would be the ability to change from regular longboard wheels to all terrain wheels and 110mm wheels.
Thanks, ive sent them an email asking when the esc will be back in stock.
Do any of you know of a good calculator that would help me figure out the gear ratio?
Streetwing - best customer service. but how do they still have focbox’s.
I would do the following
Evolve Trucks $100US
Custom 63mm motor mounts $60 -120
Evolve 83mm kit (on sale) $80. Wheels and pulleys
Flipsky 4.12 dual plus vesc $180
Flipsky VX1 remote $40
2 x flipsky 6354 motors $160
Diye enclosure $60 on amazon
Deck and battery ??
Then add evolve AT kit $160
Ait will check into that, thinking about getting a pre build battery, guess thats a good place to start instead of making one myself.
Is the fucbox a good vesc? The price is very different from sites to sites.
