Im a first time builder and am used to the speed of my board and am looking to make it quicker without spending heaps ,any help would be appreciated, 16252845972904130064456358395328|375x500
Image is just for motor and running specs wich are all now on a Bustin Brooklyn long board
this guy is selling 2hubs on a truck for 25sterling
get yourself some front trucks from some freebie and you have a drive train for somewhere like 30sterling shipped to UK.
then you need to get fortunate with some dual ESC they retail new for 80 with remote but you can proberbly find one for somewhere 40shipped
total = 85 + 20 + 30 + 40 = 175pounds and that’s assuming you got a board to stick it to.
and thats assuming you find great deals and are very resourceful at construction and have bits like screws and glue and boxes you can modify.
with that kind of board the predicted range would be from 8-11miles
some top speed of 18-23mph
with an overall bumpy ride but probably better than what you have.
you’re basically making a cheap meepo ideally buy a meepo wowgo whatever they’re mostly the same.
@Needhelp
Agh well yeah basically
belt drives, and direct drives, Gear drives are all hallmark’s of DIY ESK8 performance
belt drives being the cheapest of the lot but still not soo budget friendly as you’d assume.
So if you’re trying to be Up and running with low costs then mass produced china parts are the way to go like the hubs I linked.
When you get deep into DIY esk8 you’ll start using more expensive more advanced drivetrains like listed above and powerful speed controllers and custom battery packs, enclosures and that is our refined experience which is if not only costly then time consuming also.
