I managed to get a hold of the owner.
Shops are only in Taiwan, that SF address was there because SF is likely where he would open up shop if theres enough interest. THERES no shop there
He is DIY turned vendor.
Here are specs:
Motor: 60kv, max amp 60 amps no sensor
ESC is chinese but is modified for the board with larger capacitors
The enclosure will comfortably hold 2 focboxes.
There are 2 options for the battery packs both running 13s1p
Samsung 25R (for ALMOST air travel safe)
Sanyo NCR 20700B
Trucks are rated very conservatively for 200 KG.
Board is set up to run foc unsensored with 20 amps per motor.
Now here are the interesting part:
He has control over the production line (he isn’t buying off the shelf parts)
He is willing to consider selling parts (I am probably picking up motors and enclosure with the BMS in it and adding batteries myself)
He is willing to consider putting out custom motors (60 kv 80 amps sensored drives anyone)
Please PM me if the above is of interest. If there is enough interest I’ll set up a poll to finalize spec and start shopping around for someone thats willing to organize a group buy.
I’m definitely interested. Just a question. Is FOC unsensored a thing? I thought FOC needs a sensor to work. And I assume we can’t use just any truck right?
The guy you refer to is me Timo and I run www.haggyboard.com // meta surf is well known in the local community here. I have not tried their boards. Forging the hangers is absolutely legit and I would not be surprised if they do it within taiwan (as opposed to having them done in mainland China). We also do proper forged hangers made in taiwan.
Damn, am I the only one seeing this for the first time?
Those pneumatics hubs look decent. Are you going to produce more of those? It is sold out on your website.
How much were you selling them?
@Tamatoa: hi there. They are marked “sold out” because I needed to ensure that the ball bearings sit perfectly in the rim. I habe a few sets of rims now for testing and I expect to have all of them ready for purchase by mid-November. If some of you are interested to get your hands on some sets earlier, please let me know best by email: [email protected] // regarding the cost I am still calculating as it will depend on the hard anodizing / and sandblasting process. Nevertheless, I aim to make it VERY price competitive .
Welcome and thanks for the reply. I would be interested to know about the price for sure before deciding. Anyways, it is probably worth starting your own thread.
Yeah cool to see some fresh stuff !
I’m in for this 150mm babies !!! emailed you
About meta surf, they said they only sold complete set … “The motor will not work without our esc and remote” … ok but everybody could have a FockBox …
But love the design, motor price look good, like a motor without shaft, so it should equalize with the low kV of hub motor, so more wires…
Me too, and want to know about suitable wheel diameter with rider’s weight. If the torque is so so. I’m 72 kg and maybe standard weight of Taiwanese is around 75kg(165 lbs). Thanks.
Are there language barriers?
Very interesting.
