I paid for express shipping which was $13 vs $5 for standard shipping, received in 7 days.
Any word on the pulley cover file?
Forgive me if Iām wrong, but I was under the impression that his wheel pulleys are design to integrate a skate bearing. His wheel pulley have a 22mm bore which fits all standard skate bearings.
Oh are they? I didnāt know that Iāll message him and ask. Thatād be great though
Yeah dude, check it outā¦
On that note @dickyho sorry for the dumb question. What kind of spacers do you use with your wheel pulley? Iād like to use a skate bearing in the wheel pulley. Do you have any pictures of the bearing and spacer combination that you recommend?
Iām not following how a bearing inside the pulley would help. Besides, I already bored mine out 1" using a latheā¦
shifts the strain onto the bearing and not only the bolts.
Also shifts the force distribution to be more even, rather than making the pulley a huge lever.
Wouldnāt you need an extended axle for that? By cutting away the hanger?
either. some ppl trim the hanger down, some ppl gets hangers that are already made for the pulley bearing in mind.
I seeā¦ well hopefully itāll be ok without a pulley bearing. Iām only running 10s2p 6355 so no insane amounts of torque.
It will be fine without a bearing in the pulley. Lots of wheel pulleys on the markets donāt use a bearing.
I run this bearing in the wheel (pulley-side), and I shaved-down 4mm from my truck hanger (Caliber II).
Are you using any spacers to move the wheels further from the base of the axle? For example: https://imgur.com/a/8Xh9sq0 I have a Torqueboards 218 and I added a few spacers and washers to move both rear wheels out as far away from the hangarās base as possible to accomodate the room for dual Turnigy 6374s
Just received my order today. Thank you @dickyho!!! Everything was packaged extremely well and I received every part exactly as ordered!
You guys are going to be shocked to discover that the package was received from China in 7 days. Very impressed!
Damn are those anodized black? I tried painting mine but itās already chipping off. Still waiting on those pulley cover files as well, do they extend at all beyond the mount? Iām doing a reverse mount and need protection for the motors.
Building new board before renegade
Quick question to @dickyho I ordered the caliber mount versions. But do you have just the inserts for the Paris style truck. Will I be able to use the Caliber version with a different a Paris insert? Was that the idea, to have different inserts?
Thanks
I believe heās answered this before. I donāt think there is a Paris insert. The Paris mounts just have a hole cut to size. Less parts to deal with.
Does anyone have an easier method for filing down the pulley bore size besides with files? My wheels are spaced out too far for my liking so wanna work them in a bit. Iāve taken a bit off the hangar but donāt wanna destroy structural integrity
