Yes i will give it a try for sure. It will bring the costs down for some parts.
Other Parts will stay the same which are not cheap itself… like the Gears.
You mean cleaning ?
I use compressed air on the wet mud, works very nice!
Thank you David.
I have to check this, will let you know soon!
To be honest i barely see no sign of wear
Using some “High Power Grease” its spray and gets into nice wax and sticks like hell.
For the V-Ring i use some Teflon Spray.
As i mentioned i have worked on bringing costs down to bring this amazing Drivetrain to more People !
No compromises inside :
Same POM and Steel Gears, same POM Gearbox.
Instead of 10mm 7075 Aluminium now 3mm Stainless Steel
Instead of 3mm CF now 1mm Stainless Steel
10mm wide clamping Area out of 7075
Reduced amount of Treads, using more nuts… save money too !
So yeah its the Economic (-; But there will only be this version from now on !
Why? Because they are no really downsides!
No need to spend more time on the CNC … no need to spend more money for this time on CNC.
Know what i mean?
Why make parts more expensive then nessassary?
Its no compromise in function!
Only in design IMO for fans of milled Aluminium maybe a downside (-;
These guys can get the Aluminium Version of course on request.
Its also possible to use CF on request, but best bang for the buck will this stainless parts…
also the non thermal feature of CF is a downside for Motormounts IMO.
Yes the reason is VAT. Thats why its more expensive for EU customers.
I totally agree with you. I think my next mountainboard will use these and VESC6 (maybe).
I think you’re right to use the VERTIGO hanger and not the ULTIMATE hanger for this. The 9.525 mm bearings don’t fit perfectly the 9.525 mm axles of the ULTIMATE. There’s some kind of little gap, that doesn’t exist with 12 mm bearings/axles. Weird…
I dont think that it is strong enough to go with 3mm 7075…
Dont forget that you will have sometimes ground contacts and that inside gears are working which needs proper mesh… imo 3mm Aluminium is to flexy.
I have made not the best expierence with the Ultimate Trucks in Electric MTB´s,
one bent and one broke. Dont use them anymore. Only Vertigo Trucks.
I remember that these problems were with ultimate atb SKATE trucks, am I wrong?
I have two e-mtbds with ultimate atb SPRING trucks and none of them failed this way (I weigh 85 kg). But I have to admit I’m little less brutal than you with them.
So the axle for these does not go all the way through?
I saw a ‘‘skate’’ axle and for it ther axle was one long piece… for these it looks like there are 2 seperate axles for each wheel / side… is this correct?
Ready for upcoming 125mm Urethan Wheels from @Trampa
Fits to 7 and 8 Inch pneumatics on Superstar Hubs
Made for Street Carver / Urban Carver Trucks
Fits also on MTB Trucks
Actually doing Beta Tests… will let you know how it goes …
