As you know, I mainly post all my builds on my french community that I have created more than 2 years ago as this take a lot of time to maintain information in different places; sorry about that! I also went for a name that means a lot to me “Integrity”. That being said, I will post here my build on the Trampa Urban carver. I’m not going to invent the wheel like riding electric skateboard with hooks or stuff like that. For the Urban Carver; Frank, WP, Kaly covered it with so much talent.
I plan to post the build thread here, but also what is often missing is the riding part : how do we ride our jewels The beauty of DIY is that we all can be proud of what we achieve; no-one is genius and has every skills but bringing people together, learning from each other is what I love about our communities. That’s the same for riding. No-one car who is the best rider, it’s all about respect and having a blast… while we last ! We all have also different riding styles, so that would be my thread to share with you on this.
We all have to start somewhere ! I may modify the build while progressive but that what I got to start with
Looking forward to following the progress of this thread.
Ever since you built your little AT-Beast I’ve been wanting to build something similar, but I haven’t figured out which trucks, hubs and bearings to use. Trampa trucks has 10 and 12mm axles while regular Calibers have 8mm axles.
sure, for the AT beast it’s straightforward. Trampa trucks Infinity 10mm axles; superstars hubs - 8’inch wheels primo; my two trampa compatible mounts & drivers, my 35° risers. except the Trampa parts which are already insane; the remaining parts are available in the group buy I opened.
seems I have enough clearance with 8’ wheels; but I think the riding experience will be better by changing the mini hanger with a MTB hanger. That’s what I’ll do
Initially I was going for 12S3P but to be honest; as the board is already not on the ultra light side… 8 (oops it was 12!) cells will not kill the deal and provide more miles (I don’t care about the Amps cause I go for 35A VTC5A cells). So I’m now heading on 12S4P on this upcoming little rocket. Just ordered the missing cells from nkon.nl and the BMS from battery support. The VESC6 should be coming in the next days so I will probably have not finished this build; but no worries; I will put them on my existing MTB HolyPro prototype support deck or on my AT beast to have fun with FOC on 12S !
yeah, I second that. The Trampa enclosure is also really good. Loads of space and such a great material.
That’s why I like Trampa, you don’t have to care about quality, it’s already top notch.
I may be looking to do some 3D printed “enclosure termination” to fill the gap on each side. Solution provided by Frank with neoprene seems also perfect, but 3D print will enable me to get this little extra finish.
totally different; the AT beast is huge power on a short deck; feeling is like space mountain. The holy pro is more a mountainboard with flex. both are dope. What little guy are you talking about ?
Nice one OKP! You are faster than me. As I can see, you have the MTB Hangers mounted, springs in outer position.
What I would recommend is putting extra inserts in for the bindings.
Do you need the grip design I made for the Street Carver?
just ordered additional cells and will solder the last blocks.
