Sorry, was replying to a 3 wheeler post and it appeared here.

I got my pullies for my first build from Alien Drive Systems, http://aliendrivesystems.com/product-category/alien-drive-spares/ I think he has stopped manufacturing e-board parts and selling his stocks out. I think his nickname on this forum is @beetbocks if you have further questions
DIY skateboards ā¦ Enertion ā¦ eBay lolā¦
Why kill urself making a mount ?
DIY has ones done, bolt on, weld on
Enertion has a bolt onā¦
Each and others have pulleys and beltsā¦and at a fair price IMO
Save yourself the frustration ā¦ Focus on the guts ā¦ Ur going to San Franā¦ I hear they have a few hills
Nice link, although I did a simple spreadsheet on my phone to do something similar.
Well arenāt you the smart one?
Hah, itās not hard. So, where is everyone based? Iām Uk, south near Reading. Is there a member map or something?
Most the mounts ive found are for Caliber trucks it seems like and I want to run Paris trucks.
A drive kit and motor mount from enertion is about $110 after shipping. Making a mount for $10 and paying $25 for pulleys and a belt is a more cost-effective solution for me being a broke college student.

Oh I hear you mateā¦all I can sayā¦itās one less thing to figure out 
I had a nice little place just outside the Aitken basin too, but the air was a little thin there so i moved to Florida where it is the exact opposite.

@andrewhannay Yup, you nailed some of the key points in my reasoning. The motor is also far more protected and without size/space limit. Slow speed agility is sacrificed, but I didnāt build it to ride sidewalksā¦ cheers
Hi,
My name is Victor. Iām 18 years old and from Denmark.
Just started my e-board build - first pulley today! Iām really exited.
Btw, does anybody think this will work? 9mm belt on a single motor setup?

It will be fineā¦ I would hope that belt is Kevlar reenforced 
to reduce the stretching
Great! Just waiting for motors on Hobbyking. Literally every single motor is on backorder!?!
Yeah I know ā¦ It SUCKS!!!
But you WILL have a totally bitchinā ride when your done!
Go watch the e-skate video section to waste some time while you wait lol
How long have they been out of stock? Probs gonna get me an Alien motorā¦
Just really wanted the NTM 270kv
They always out of stockā¦I almost killed @barajabali over used NTMs that @longhairedboy had lol and he found out whyā¦NO stock ā¦and that was like a month agoā¦ You can find cheap replacement motor of the same size and cheap on eBay ā¦ I use them one boards I know wonāt get worked like I ride mineā¦ You will see that some of the most popular at the SK motors and tacon ā¦ And the way things are going 63mm motors are the can of choiceā¦ All I can say is always be on the look out for the motor you wantā¦and maybe just buy it when you see itā¦cause it maybe a loooooong wait before you can get it againā¦Iāve been on the hunt for a sk 192kv but no luck ā¦I caught a sale in the sk 149kvā¦but I will need to run that at 12s to get me the top speed I want with that motor
Hey guys, Iām Dries from Belgium and new to the forum, allthough Iāve been lurking around for quite some time so some of you Iāve read alot from ;).
Planning on doing a checklist and buildlog very soon! This seems like a great community!
Whats up eSk8 builders!
Iām mike, building my board to get around west LA where the hills are forgiving and the bike lanes are abundant.
So basically Iād like to be able to pick between going 20 miles @ 12mph or less miles at a greater speed. Iāve got all of my parts picked out except for my batteries, which I might pull the trigger on this week. Theyāre 2x 6s 30c 8000mah Zippy LiPos, hopefully this gets me where I need to be.
'Bout to pull the trigger on an Alienpower motor, but what is a sensored motor? Haha
