How is the tkp coming along
It is pretty much done. I am finishing some other parts also that will be produced at the same time. Turns out the current motor plate will only work in rear mount config on tkp, so I will have some longer made also, with slots for adjustability.
Could you use the adjustable plate with the Caliber mounts?
Yes that’s one of the ideas behind the mount solution. Same hole pattern for all plates and trucks
So the motor plates needs to have a center to center distance of 80mm instead of 72mm to fit on the Surfrodz as well as Calibers. This is how it will look except with 12mm motor pulleys:
Looks great. Are they mounted on a E-caliber truck in the pictures above?
no, those are surf rodz tkp trucks.
@Indiangummy is right. You could use them on E-calibers also with the caliber clamp if you like. I will split it up into different configs on the website when they are ready.
I have the longer motorplates for rearward mounting in the works now, any feedback is appreciated.
C-C distance = 95mm ± 4mm
Black AL7075 6.9mm thick, 5.9 at motor.
Fits clamps for SR TKP, TB218, Caliber
Bonus: Possible to run 50x motors as well with adjustable idlers.
beauties!
oops. forgot this: 10 chars
Nice job!!
Thanks! I will produce these, the 80mm motorplates, tkp clamps, 16T motor pulleys and maybe some modular Kegel pulleys 36t, for 12mm belts.
Also there’s 20%off on the fixed mounts on the webshop from now until next week!
I just bought the " Dual mount complete – with idlers and crossbars" from the website! Your mount design is the only one that ticks all the boxes for what I was looking in a mount (reliability).
It looks very well studied and well thought out! I like all the possibilities without compromise.
And those … hooooooo I want to ride your board man !! Is it going to be your own esk8 ?
I have spent way to much time designing these mounts
Yes, it will be my own esk8, you can have a go if you visit Tromsø some day
I posted my first impressions of the dual mount kit (without taking it to the road yet) in another thread:
