Will these parts play well together?

Yep, they will work well together well. But you will have to get 2 extra skate bearings for the pulleys as Evolve have a 10mm axle.
You can probably make the trucks work. You would have to dremmel/machine about 10mm off of the hanger though on both sides.
We’ll have a CNC Precision Truck option soon but it won’t be cheaper unfortunately. The 218mm TB Trucks will be a cheaper option.

Don’t you have an extended axle by 11mm on the 218mm trucks? I tried putting them on a while back and there was still a couple of mm of axle left for the nut! When can we expect the precision truck!!?? Sounds exciting : )
@DeathByBacon you could just ask Evolve to send you 2 standard skate bearings instead of the 10mm bearings.
This sounds very interesting. Do you have an estimate when they will be available?

@BoostedBuilder @Namasaki Main design is complete. Just working closer to a finished hub motor design as well that way they are equal and compatible. Then a few samples and testing will be made and we’ll probably do a short beta testing batch first. We’ll be able to use RipTide Bushings for flexibility in bushing choices. There will be a few axle options to utilize Evolve AT wheels, Trampa Wheels and anything that people will want/suggest.
So the beta test if nothing is wrong 1 month and we’ll start a beta run. I will post on the forums when we’re ready for the beta test. If everything is good, we’ll look at having these new truck options in stock.
