Yeah, great companies, great wheelsā€¦ but they always manage to shot themselfs on the foot. They donā€™t seem to realize which market they are on. Poor color choosing. Really bad. :roll_eyes:

What are you talking about? I love my piss colored caguamas

Iā€™m all for brightly-colored wheels, but I also like black. No reason to diss; thereā€™s something for everyone.

Yeah, off course. This is just for fun. Also liked TB 110 black as their first choice. Next one should follow that trend (hopefully @torqueboards will come back to his senses a chose a stealth scheme :yum:)

Got mine today. They are MASSIVE. I really want to test them out. But I have clearance issues now, which was kind of expected. The picture is shitty, but you can kind of see the retaining screw touching the wheel.

Anybody know what pulley size I should get so I can move the motor further away from the wheel?

Use a 280mm belt.

Same size pulley but get a longer belt.

Or try flipping the motor pulley and adding some spacers to the axle.

Or find a pulley that does not have the collar on the end. But uses grub screws in the teeth.

It looks like the collar fits. While waiting on new belts you could pick up 4 short grub screws from your local hardware store so you donā€™t have the protruding bolts in the meantime.

Thanks guys! I meant belt and not pulley, sorry about that. Iā€™ll try to get a 280mm belt. I believe the one I have is 265mm.

The grub screw idea is really neat too! But I donā€™t like having the wheel that close to the motor pulley, if anything gets loose or something gets caught in there, itā€™ll end with my face on the ground.

Lots of things can cause streetface, but having the motor pulley right next to the wheel (1mm or more) seems to be harmless in my experience.

Just printed a test pulley for my set up and feels a bit loose i think all 8 of my cores are flipped cause its loose on all 8 wheels.

What thickness do the prongs need to be again to fix this?

I know 5.4mm is for sure loose on flipped core. 5.6mm would be a good fit if I remember right.
