FatBoy Solid Core Hub

The same Trampa ones like SuperStar can run

That’s cool. Let’s see what you can offer them for. I really like the sound of these tyres

It weighs 362g with screws

There will be options also for longboard bearings (22mm x 8mm x 7mm). Also choice for either 6082 T6 or 7075 T6 (lighter, but more expensive).

Plus at the moment we are at work for Trampa SuperStar hub aluminum plates for longboard bearings, so you could fit Trampa wheels on longboards (Then maybe in future there will also be mouting set of our drivetrains for longboard trucks :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:)

There is not yet exact price, but should be around 200€/set (4 wheel hubs)

sign me up Kugy :heart_eyes:

did you counter ballance the valve stem?

There will be some counterweight to glue on other side, to make it balance according you tire or tube :wink: Because every tube/tire has different weight

some folk swear by tiny beads in the tube, trampa suply a glueable weight as well and advise placing opposite the valve, which destroys the idea of wheel balancing as art

Hi, I just wanted to compliment for keeping the prices low and honest. People may not realize that behind the figures there is 20% fucking VAT, and a pile of other taxes. Not to mention that you run small batches and everything is made in the EU.

The hub was lightened a bit to 290g. There is a question in which color should first wheel be available.

  • Black
  • Silver
  • Raw aluminium

Also which size would like to buy?

  • 12mm axle (Trampa hangers)
  • 8mm axle (Lonngboard hangers)

Colour an bearing size?

On the one hand raw or a clear anodize stays looking good the longest as chips and scratches show up less… I still vote for black though.

I think there are two markets for bearing size.

  1. People replacing their superstars who want a bolt on replacement for a Trampa
  2. AT wheels for regular eSk8’s

I’m sure you know all this already, people who own a trampa already have deep pockets so I’d do black 12mm wheels first then try the 8mm option when you get some momentum in a second production run.

my 2c.

Black ones will look terrible after few rides…

Im pretty sure that 5g of weight more or less wont affect the wheels in any possible way, you are not going at 50k rpm or building a space shuttle

Man everyone is over killing shit that doesn’t need to be that way and making prices sky high

Put 5 coats of paint and they will last a bit more :smiley:

Paint wont be the best… Anodized would be far better

Powder coat with some IGP Dura Face powder would do better than anodized.
