Can you guys enable bitcoin for purchases, I’m sure many like myself have made profits recently from bitcoin and would be mad to be able to spend on eboards :smiley:

Would love this as well! Although I’m not sure what China’s laws are on cryptocurrencies like bitcoin.

China forbid bitcoin here.

That’s awesome. What is the estimated cost?

I bought the airless wheels and put them on my vangaurd build.

First off they look sick and are amazing in theory.

A few issues I’ve encountered which make me want to shelf these wheels forever are:

First, The stock bearings are the worst bearings I’ve ever rode on, not only that they are pressed in so removing them is extremely difficult and if you do it wrong you will crack the hubs ( that’s what I did but I had spares) Second, the bearing spacer is the wrong size so if you tighten the but too much the wheel locks up Third, even with swapping out the terrible bearings to ceramics and shimming the bearing spacer; the rolling resistance of these wheels is terrible. My original wheels got me a 10 mile range while these gave me half that. Forth, the tires spin on the hub. So when you brake too hard you’ll encounter some slipping.

But they look cool

Upgraded BOM list making it FOC safe, or did you use the minimally required components? Max A rating per motor?

P.S. would still love to see detailed picture of those a grade mountain board trucks, specifically the construction and tolerances of the kingpin and bushings.

Not good. Thanks for the review. Slipping could be fixed with a ridged profile between tire and hub. Incorrect spacer size appears to be common (same experience among friends with different products).

What do you think causes the increased rolling resistance? Do the tires flatten out? Material too soft?

Gotta say, they can claim whatever they want to claim. I’m still not going to buy it until someone else thoroughly tests it.

yah, if they are smart they will send a respectable forum user stuff to test and review on a regular basis.

estimated at 120usd, two vesc bind together and totally waterproof.

we appreciate your comment here, there’s lack of communication caused issues for your built. if you let us know you want to swap the bearings we will leave it empty so you can make your own bearing mounted. anyway what you said here are good for us to improve it much better. if you need any support from us you can feel free to let me know, i thought you wrote to me before for replacement of hub scratch of bearing swap by you and we agreed also. is that you? i must say your quality require is high beyond our factory level, you really pro on this and made a nice built, we can tell from the photo. the spacer is intentionally designed for this has a reason, we need it to swap the at wheels to 83mm pu wheels kit. see vedeo here: 6’’ Airless AT wheels quick release wheel change to 83mm pu wheels

if you have any futher suggestion or problem please feel free to let me know, message me or email me. We want satisfy our customers buy the right thing and happy with it, if you are not happy with it , give us a chance to correct it right. we thank you for your professional review here.

I don;t undertand well, the photo used only our wheels, he used his own motor and esc. you can tell from the photo easily. you mean the 9’’ at truck for the 6’’ at wheels?

we will improve all our specs and discriptions more accurate and more proffessional, we don’t want to mislead our customers. if anything you feel not for sure you can double confirm us. i think we should level up our quality standard to a extramly high level so can meet most of proffessional builders’ need.

He used your wheels & hubs, right? I was referring to the spacer in between the two bearings, like he was. From what we have noticed, these are generally speaking a bit too long or short and sometimes the correct length.

i understand this, thanks for clearification, the spacer problem is due to the 83pu wheels swap, maybe we need to sell two kind of wheels kit, one with current spacers for wheels swap, another with regular right spacers. and we indeed need to do more research work before making a new item, selling diy kit and part is really challenging, small market but extream demands in quality and unique design. maybe we should only focus on selling complete board to regular users.

Regarding your controller. Realize that many here are willing to buy and promote your product (unique, one if not the first mass manufactured dual VESC) if you simply ensure that you are working with the upgraded BOM list/make it FOC worthy with an amp rating of 50A continuous (60 preferred) per motor. That means direct FET with proper passive cooling provided by your housing, upgraded capacitors and a few other bits.

You would take a relatively big market share (currently mostly FOCBOX) and dominate the dual motor market for high end ESK8 builds.

It would not cost you that much more in components.

thanks, you are absoluting telling us the right thing and most important thing to make a good business and develop a new vesc. we much appreciated, i will direct it to our technicians for further feedbacks and public as much as possible the specs and bom that we used if ok for out technicians. hoping that not too sensitive.
