Sick ! I’ve been waiting for an Icarus build ! Would take that deck over my vanguard any time If those weren’t that expensive I would go for one immediately !
I think OKP has an Icarus but doesn’t want to electrify it
Hey!
My Bad I missed the comment.
The spacing is 4 1/2 inches between enclosures.
With a little redesign of the cases you can get that space much larger!
My interest was more in the length from drop through slot to drop through slot. I can only find wheelbase online which doesn’t accurately reflect the space between to put enclosures.
nice to see the icarus. I set up mine with ronins, great versatile super light board that even can be pumped really well with ronins. felt like I didnt actually want to electrify it.
some dremel work required for ronins though, but it was totally worth it:
not sure why loaded has the icarus mostly equipped with paris, I really didnt like those at all.
@Eboostin It’s not bad. when the battery drops to 20% on the screen that’s where I start to notice it. But that’s around 14 miles in to a trip! If I accelerate slowly at that point then I don’t even notice it until the cut-off occurs on the VESC.
@whitepony Honestly this board is so good I’m going to buy another one to keep as my push board. It does not need to be electrified! Paris are fine. I prefer Caliber and have never tried Ronin but I wanted to use these old Limited Paris trucks I had laying around and thought they would be perfect on this board.
i can try 90mm and post pictures in 1-2 hours. in the woods with the dogs right now
update: no chance with ronins and centered wheel cores, but ronins have comparably high lean. probably other trucks, offset wheels or stiffer bushing might work. worst case scenario you just make it work with some dremel action!
