Ready and waiting for the DD guys… and @torqueboards this wearlther is beautiful (rain aside) these 2 cold fronts have been a god send
(Ignore the missing pulley, lost it today because grub screw came out and it rolled into a storm drain)

Not 100% decided yet but we currently have samples for 50KV/70KV. Typically in between is probably what it’s looking like around 60KV.

Will you make a kit with the direct drive eventually? Enclosure and all. Similar to the belt kit you’ve got.
The 110 plus decent trucks will be great for the bike paths/concrete paths around Melbourne, rather than the harsher hub motors limited to a specific size.

Yeah, we will. The trucks for the DD setup will be with CNC Trucks.
Working on a new battery setup next to make things easier.

Definitely keen on this. Can’t wait, will jump on that. Keep up the good work!

60kv sounds like the sweet spot. Its gonna push pretty much anything I bet. 110 wheels up any hill and with those beefy hangars I don’t expect hear to be as big of a concern as other hubs/DD’s

Yeah they are super thick I’m pretty sure they can hold a car lol

I think exactly 62kv is the sweetest spot, if possible

Lmao, motors are never gonna be the exact KV you want. I believe there was a thread awhile ago that discussed Advertised vs actual KV

With 97mm?
Well 62kv would work very well with 110mm and 107mm for 10S and 12S (25.9mph - 31.9mph) (41.6km/h - 51.4km/h)
With 97mm it’d be a bit torquey and with pneumatics it’d be a bit too fast, but I personally think that’s the best compromise. I’d mainly want to use direct drive on short decks with tails that are otherwise hard to electrify…

I work 3-4 weeks at a time offshore but when I am home I usually ride between 25-50 miles per day. When home I am home for 3-4 weeks at a time so I could have you 400-500 miles on the DD’s in about 10-14 days.

That would be lovely. Getting feedback on the Direct Drives is cool.
Building a new board and I’m just waiting on the release of these bad boy’s.
I’m your in need of testers… I’ll gladly do so. I push 15 miles a day, 6 days a week in NYC roads.
From the nice smooth roads to harsh one. Lots of uphill road by me as well.

@FredXanadu Yeah, We’ve been testing them and they’ve been holding up great. I think they’ll be pretty durable especially with 110mm Wheels. We’ll be doing a pre-order very shortly.

I’m using your 6374 motors on my dual belt setup. How would you say that the torque of these new units compares to what I’m experiencing now?
