So after riding both Evolve and raptor 2 i decided i want the fastest and best board i could find and the best world from both hub and belt drives and IMO the closest is geared drive.
And i would like really long range!
So i have tried and ordered a lot of different parts to find out what works.
I felt I don´t want to just assemble the board so i decided to create the deck by my self. Will post more pictures of how I did make the decks later, maybe i offer them for sale to just the decks.
The parts is:
Self made deck that is almost a copy of the Evo Deck
4 x 6374 sealed motors from Maytech but i special ordered them with a few change and winding for 215 kv
Well that is basically the main parts, a few more items will be added later.
I don’t have so many pictures atm but will post more videos and pictures later.
Here is after the board have been painted:
Tested how it look with the eboosted enclosure done by @Eboosted
The board upper side will be black stained to the you can se the wood but still black and have a gripe tape sprayed on.
Here is some pictures of the assemble of the gear drive and motor:
Testing how the drive is mounted before i start the work:
Changing the angle to work with my board:
Cutting the motor axle to work with the gear drive:
The pulley test mounted:
Putting grease on:
After that and putting the case on i found out the motor pulley was to long out, the problem was a retaining ring close to the motor on the motor axle that was needed to be removed so i needed to redo all the work with again (was not that happy at that moment hehe )
Here are the finished with only the case left to mount:
Mounting the Vibration damping mat and put some silicone for extra waterprotection:
More pictures and video will come later! All i can say this is insane and the sound is amazing !!
Want one to? Soon(winter 2018/19) you can order the same on www.bioboards.eu if you live in EU or the nordic site www.bioboards.se (sites not online atm but will soon be) . Their will also be a smaller 30" board that is lighter with same parts but 12s3p battery.
The final version for sale will use Focbox Unity instead.
They will be sold with almost no or very little profit just because i think its so fun to build! I might also add a cheaper version with same parts but hub motors and 90mm abec 11 front wheels for those who like the design of the decks and still want the best parts available under the enclosure.
The website is password protected atm before its done, the eu url is not working atm but will in a few days. I think i’l take pre-orders in like 1-2 mouth whene I got more time to test it and feel confident all is working perfect. And it will probely take 2-3 mouth for delivery after pre ordered for me to order all parts and assembly it so maby delivery around Christmas or January.
Yes maby next week, but just searth on Google for daisy chain wired and you will find how to. I think their is another way called y split for ppm or something but that I havnt tried, try searth for that to and you will find some answers edit here is some info : https://www.electric-skateboard.builders/t/question-on-can-vs-split-ppm/52443
Nice work, beautiful paint job. Is that a satin sheen with the black paint you used? I went through just about every sheen before choosing satin. I then repainted the eboosted enclosure to match, making the connection to the enclosure blend nicely. How thick is the foam your laying down between the battery and the deck? I have the same enclosure and started with much thicker foam (on both sides of enclosure) but had to thin way down to fit a stacked staggered 12s6p.
Hi, ty! It’s a black clear coat 40 but I will probely use satin for the coming boards since it’s abit more enduring(atleast what I heard) .
I actually have thinked about that to! Can you share me a picture how the enclosure looks painted?
I used 1/4in Neoprene on both sides to, it’s very tight but that’s good thene the enclosure help hold the weight from battery. I mount all on the deck so it’s easy to work with and easy to remove the enclosure almost like the raptor 2 are.
I only have this picture on me at the moment. I’m actually repainting/sanding the enclosure to remove a few scratches now that I know little clearance I have. I’ll post a better one soon.
The enclosure looks great when painted to match the deck.
