Hahaha hub motors stretching…
That reminds me of a manual labor job when o was younger. Guy cut the pipe to short so we told him to get the pipe stretcher…
Or at a car dealership there were to many cars on the lot so we sent the kid to all the sister dealerships(12) to look for the lot stretcher
Hahaha hubs stretch

Technically speaking, it is called ghosting. The urethane stretches from centrifugal force and flies right off the can.

The urethane sleeve will give sufficient angular speed like dragstrip tires, but will not happen unless urethane was not bonded correctly.
@racidon Your face stretches.
@psychotiller your mom stretches hahahahaha
@PXSS your mom’s face stretches
@chaka still killin it with those wheels bro omg i love them so much. oh and you should see the dust that comes out of the gap from the cheese grater effect on those r-spec hubs. The surface of the hub is textured to grip the thane so it just tears the shit up when the than stretches.
belts for life.

130 km on my 15mm 400 length belt today and I had to tighten it…slightly.
@telnoi Was it your belt stretching or your mounts/motor moving? Chances are your mount wasn’t solid.

Mount is solid. I double checked the belt today after a long ride and there is a thin hairline crack in it. Ordered replacements.
