Enough clearance with risers and I have possibly enough room from axle to pulley to fit 6” pneumatics!
looks like you have enough room to front mount those motors if you want too as well.
maybe with the risers, I kind of like the look of the rear mount though and the cables are too tight with the front mounts I have.
Just curious, what kind of flex do these decks have? How comfortable are they after a couple of hours of riding? Obviously not like a bamboo deck. I’m sure the AT wheels help.
Alright so i’m joining this club soon. Placed my order
edit: @treenutter is on holiday right now but we been chatting
Well I wrote this and left it in limbo so here it is…
I received my RedEmber Mas Deck. It was shipped on the 14th and received mid day on the 18th to Ontario Canada . Awesome fast shipping. Should be a fun build. I posted a few pics on the “no words” thread and snuck one on on the surfrodz rkp mounts thread. Many more to come. I’m picking away at things slowly and will make a build thread eventually.
Love the color scheme
@treenutter pretty please, any updates on a smaller cruiser deck? I have some more trucks on the way, I am addicted… I need more Embers in my life!
@daj013 I’d call them medium-stiff. They absorb road vibration but aren’t “bouncy.”
@bigben I was! It was an incredible trip!
@Sender no update just yet but I’m working on it! I am really excited to get a few on the road!
@Sender shhhhh me first me first I’m waiting to give him more monies once that smaller deck is out
Im with ya man! We can have sister decks, cut from the same stock, lol.

Dude, sister decks. Let’s get it
I’m replying here so as not to derail the other thread.
It’s coming along slowly. I’m just sorting out where I want the motor wires to come around and enter the enclosure. Then cut the holes for that. I’m waiting on a set of “those x things” so I can permanently mount the trucks. I bought some extra versa pulleys. I’m going to add a slice to each side and run 15-16mm wide belts. Then just mount all the electronics. Holyman92 is printing me a xt-90 mount and cover from manner’s thingverse page. Yesterday consisted of breaky with my buds, hanging by the pool and having a few brews and burgers and only about 45 minutes of build time. Almost there. I actually got to stand on it yesterday. Badass is a good word
Setup is focbox’s from the wiz, dexters 170kv 6355 sensored motors running foc, 12s4p 30q’s and metr pro. Should be a sweet ride.
Soon, very soon.
Haha no worries, my biggest problem now is to use the 45° hangers or 50° hangers. I wanted 45 rear and 50 front. I may need the 50° in rear though to gain some ground clearance for the motors. I’m gonna try some 3/16 riser pads first and see if I get what I want. It’s looking pretty good in the last pic for clearance though.
I can cut you some 1/4" risers from AL if you want.
