What enclosure is this? Looks too much like a repurposed bottom of a flower pot.

kinda cool angle huh? when i finish this new deck (like yours) may try a mount off the rear and have the goose neck trailing behind…

Soon i will be posting a build project here using these wheels. Keep your eyes open, this one gonna build a nice build…

I haven’t had the time. I got the parts I need printed but right now I have other obligations to attend to.

It looks like Banggod has them for around 17USD. And offering free Priority Direct shipping (10-15 days shipping/delivery). So no risk being held at customs. And with the CouponCode BgAuMotor you get even 10% off. So in total 5 Tires were arount 74 USD. About 14.80 USD per tire/rim.

only difference I see is the Writing on the tire. At Aliexpress the pictures show “KF-714-02” and the ones at Banggood show “KF-714-05” . Don’t know what this last number means. Besides that they look identical…

BTW: I tried to download the 3D Files for the Pulley Adapter but always get the “Permission required. Request Access” Page and therefore I cannot Download them.

Thanks bud!

The problem is that I can’t edit the top post anymore. If you look at the same of this topic though, there is a hint. Haha.

That pricing is sooo damn good. Thanks for the find. You should also post that link in the Chinese deals thread.

Has anyone found a good place to source replacement tubes in the US? Mine arrived with one tube DOA. I opened a dispute on Ali, but I’d like to get something to get up and going faster.

Maybe psychotiller?

Mich21050 · February 24, 2019, 9:05pm

Anybody on here got a similiar setup (bc of belt lenght)

15t motor pulley
@dickyho extented motor mount
42t motor pulley…

murloc992 · February 24, 2019, 9:22pm

I have a similar setup but a 60T pulley so my belts are 400mm and 420mm(to engage the idlers fully with maximum slack). You can always get a piece of string and wrap it around the gears, measure and buy the next nearest length belt (5mm increments).

mishrasubhransu · February 24, 2019, 9:30pm

Use a belt len calculator.

accrobrandon · February 25, 2019, 7:14pm

about the same… 410mm belts with 18/60 and one idler using bearing slightly smaller than the 608s… 415mm with the 608s … im wondering if this 415mm will still fit if i go 20/60 hmmm might be tight

Bjork3n · February 25, 2019, 9:07pm

Has anyone fitted 7 inch tires on these hubs? Is it possible? Looking for a tire with some knobbies

murloc992 · February 26, 2019, 2:49pm

I am a lucky guy who got 2 tubes f-ed because of this. It’s the burring on the rims. It cuts the stem… Crap baskets… I did file all the valve stem wells with a hand file and now they’re smooth, but it doesn’t change the fact I have two fricked tubes now. Damnit.

Here’s a cool timelapse of printing my first pulley adapter. So excited to get my 6x2’s rolling soon!

mishrasubhransu · February 26, 2019, 2:52pm

Yeah, it’s not because the hole is big but because the hole is sharp. I filed it the moment I opened it. I wish I could edit my original post to put that in bold.
