@Luvafreeride - Was harder to go 125mm since there’s not much space for any air. I also don’t think we need all the options.
We’ll have a 110mm 75A wheels which should be more then you need for a urethane option.
I originally tried going 140/150mm pneumatics but overall 160mm was a better option. That way your rim can actually be a bit bigger and you can have a 7" or even 8" pneumatic tire as well. Otherwise 5.5" to 8" is a fairly big jump. Everything needs to be scaled down with a smaller tire as you’ll need space for air. Evolve even tried 5.5" tires before but scraped the idea. I think 6.5" would be the smallest. Either way you would typically need a specific deck to fit any wheels over 97mm.
I even looked at making 125mm urethane on our rims but I don’t think there’s much benefit. The 110x65 will have thicker urethane 40mm thick and 65mm wide vs with our rims a urethane 125x50 would be 20mm thick, 50mm wide. If you asked me, I’d take the 110x65 if you’re going urethane.
That’s what I’m hoping for.
Pretty much have all the parts ( ordered at least)
For my first build.
Wanting something other than belts for my second build. And hubs aren’t my thing.
We used some huge industrial bearings to support the motor. 12mm thick. Front bearing is also big but no photos atm. So I’m hoping we can dog em out and they’ll last. We’re technically not even riding them as we would in an in-wheel hub motor. Other items added for scale.
