Info >> Surf Rodz Spacers, Axles & Bearings

Quick addition. For people in EU/UK I found the washers:

The spacers however I could not find with the right ID, I ended up buying them from the US as not to waste too much time digging around but I’m sure they can be found over here easy enough with some searching.

What are the dimensions of the surfrodz bearings? I figured 10mm id bearings would be 10x22x7 instead of the standard 8mm id bearings being 8x22x7.

You state the other 10mm bearings being 10x22x6 (6902 series). Would that not give you 2mm space missing in the wheel?

I guess it doesn’t matter as long as they aren’t wider. Searching for 10x22x7 only gets me the 62900 series and there isn’t much choice for those.

@mmaner

Is the kingpin bolt a standard size bolt? If so what bolt?

Sorry the answer could be simple but I’m on my phone

What skate store is this

There are 10x1mm speed rings if you have issues, I personally have not.

Surf Rodz has multiple kingpin options, I’m not sure of dimensions on any of them but I’ll check the spares I have when I get home.

EDIT: I looked up what is available on the SR site. It looks like 2.25in, 2.50in and 2.75in long but no clue on the other dimensions.

The one that told me they had them in stock and then after an hour drive it turned out they didn’t at all. That one.

Out of interest, ordering direct from SR was also problematic. I sent three emails over a month to buy the trucks as they suggested in the cart. They say they deliver worldwide but appeared to just ignore my attempts to buy.

I ended up asking a lovely gentleman here to buy them for us and ship over to the UK

Its crazy that you can use a 100mm shoulder bolt. What motors could you fit with that :heart_eyes:

Also. That new caliber truck for esk8 seems inferior to these surfrodz. You can get them for basically the same price and can fit 6374 motors

I imagine you could easily fit 80mm cans, not sure though. I feel like 6374’s are as big as is needed.

Yeah, who needs more than 4x6374s?

Ehh not sure, still building my first esk8. Still making that good damn battery pack. But I would like to use surfrodz when the opportunity pops up

You can fit longer shoulder bolt but much after the 74mm cans you run out of truck to fit them on. Mounts don’t hang on too well to the spacers!

Yeah this is what I designed for that gear drive we were talking about last week. The Clamp sits on the edge of the hanger. And the plate is hanging over the axle and is screwed into the clamp. And the plate is recessed like 4mm to create 8mm space for a dual drive system - this way sk3 fit

(just a concept)

Funny I had a similar problem with them. Contacted them late April and received a response a week later in May. Then weeks of nothing even after me mailing them several times. Then I forgot about them and then someone here at the forum said they were having a sale last June and I contacted them again. They finally got back to me and I had them after another week.

Other then this service is great as long as they respond.
