Doing some upgrades…
I got a new set of 6 shooters from @psychotiller, they are going on today. I can’t say enough about these wheels. I’ve run MBS Rock Stars, MBS 7 in knobbies, Skikes, Evolve and I’ve ridden Trampas and nothing compares. These are lighter and have more contact grip than anything else out there.
I got an enclosure from @bigben made specifically for the LY Evo deck, Looks great and the dry fit is perfect. I’m going to remove it this weekend and do some paint work to finish it up, then remount and call this board done
…again…
until something else comes along that I wanna try 
.
pics coming soon.

I forgot to get a screenshot, but on a 7 mile ride today with too speed of 21mph and average speed of 14mph my average WH usage was 23.4wh per mile, down from 31wh per mile.
HOLY S$#T, I didn’t expect such a decrease. All I changed was airless wheels on 6 shooters to @psychotiller 6 shooters with stock numies. That’s a 20’ish percent increase in drive time.
@cwazy1, thought you might be interested in this too.

Yeah I’m avging 20-22wh/m on SixShooters with stock tires
Play with tire pressure you can get some more out of it

Oh wow, I thought the pneumatics would be better milage than the urethanes!
Did you check your tire pressure before you rode?
@cwazy1 They are giving more drive time, 20% more. Did say it wrong or did you read it wrong?

I figured I would post some about my bushing setup since its freaky strange and it was a topic of discussion yesterday, Both @Battosaii and @michichopf had some great insights.
Initially I almost junked the LY Evo when I first built it cause it road ugly, lots of wobble and kida squishy. After experimenting with different risers and bushings and loosening the trucks more than I’m generally comfortable with this is what I came up with.
Now it’s a frikking monster. It’s the only board I have that I’m semi-comfortable at 30+ mph.
* all bushings are RipTide
WFB Barrel 93a (Red) >> front, road side KranK Street Barrel 93a (Maroon) >> front, board side
WFB TALL Barrel 95.5 (Green) >> rear, road side KranK Street Chubby 96a (Grey) >> rear, board side
Carving deep on an Evo, where you are in the middle.of trucks, not on top of them, leaves a bit to be desired when returning from the lean. Harder bushings roadside make the return more ‘elastic’ for lack of a better word. To be clear, his isn’t science just my personal experience with this specific deck.
@michichopf suggested chubby hourglass board side rear, I will eventually give that a try and see if its any better.

Awesome! Im always willing to try new set ups.
Video is badass, you should work on this a bit more for science!

Tried zip ties, they flew off pretty quick. I doubt we will get anymore snow, but if we do Ill give it another shot

Zip ties through the cheese holes and around the hubs to stop rotation…real spikes for ice, but probably need 8" mudpluggers for freshies.
The rotation is most likely the temperature difference where the hub gets smaller than the PU wheel and wet of course
Yeah, I actually measured the difference from 70 to 19 F. 2.2mm in shrinkage.
I’ve got an MBS Comp 95 I’ve about finished, its got 8in mudders so I’ll it ready in a hurry of we get anymore snow.
