Issue #1 - I don’t mind the shorter wires, but the long ones that stick out from the tail of my board drives me nuts.
Issue #2 - I weigh about 215lbs (97.5kg) and with a very conservative angle on my motor mounts, I still find that I risk damaging motor wires with the spinning motors when my fat ass hits a big bump. Could I potentially get a small riser that would allow for cable protection and put a bit more space between my motors and wires?
Put a couple of standoffs on the truck-to-deck screws under their nuts. Bring your wires to the stand-offs 90 degrees then turn the wires another 90 towards the front (180 total). Zip tie together.
Ignore the green, that was a mistake. Blue are the standoffs (actually “wire clamp”), red is the wiring. Make sure it’s tight in the standoff, so no vibration wear or backing out. You should also have one under the enclosure to make sure it doesn’t back out.
Thanks ! Yes the length is customisable. Just snip the ‘cable tunnel’ off at the length you need. I have done this too as it’s too long as you see it in the picture.
I use a 1/8" shock pad on top of this, and with this the total height is then 1/2" (which is what is then needed on front truck)
ahh right, didn’t know you didn’t have a printer. I’m waiting on parts for mine otherwise I’d offer to do it for you. If you manage to find some one to do it earlier I’d go with that, or you could wait until mine is up and running…
Haha, I wish I had a printer! My wife and I just had our first baby, I’m lucky to even have enough time to work on this project a few minutes every couple of days
