I have a basically brand-new motor from that I’ve only ridden twice. It works perfectly, but when I got my new kit board I just gave up trying to finish my single-drive board.
I bought it for $100 with shipping, but right now they’re on a holiday sale for $85, so just let me know what you feel a fair price would be and I’ll lump shipping in with that.
I also have a VESC, motor mount, and belt-drive kit that I’d be willing to sell with it from diy’s site, so just let me know if you’re interested in one of those too!
I knowww I should stick with it but there were a few reasons:
I prefer my kit board because I can plug it into the charger without having to open up the case and charge lipos. I know it’s as simple as buying a BMS with a charging port, but it would require even more modifications to my board.
With the size of my components and the enclosure, I have to use a stuff deck for my DIY project. While I was working on the board and testing the trucks out this was fine, but when I got my kit and installed it on a 7-ply flexible deck, the difference was night and day.
If I’m able to sell all my components, I can spend that money on a non-motorized longboard and backup parts for my kit board.
It mostly boils down to the fact that I’m not in love with what the final product of my diy board would be, and I’d rather use the money to buy accessories for my kit board. BUT I’m glad that I went through the process and at least learned everything from scratch, since it’ll make repairs way easier on my new board.
someone is trying to sell something here. directing a possible customer away from buying his product is very bad form. he did not ask for your help, if he could only pay $40 for a motor he wouldn’t have said anything on this thread.
