In fairness his handle is squishy 
may be awkward to get the phases to route tidy if you flip the riser, it’s a point tho,shorts are bad mkay
@squishy654 are you running single or dual idlers, I still don’t know if dual holds any advantage over single on the slack side.
The risers are tight, and that’s not a bad thing, they capture the wires well and they barely move but they do shift a little. I think you guys are correct, I need to mount them against the deck itself. the risers could be longer and fatter to accommodate larger trucks like atlas and bolzen, also they could taper to the deck, widening as they go a little, it helps stabilize thos big eskate hangers at 218mm. I am using two long haired boy 190kv motors here in this 1st mounting test, the wires are typical of most high end high power motors, but the wires are long on the motor itself, verses the vesc like with the Hobbyking kit. With the HK kit I would be forced to mount the vesc wires under the riser and bullet connectors would be between the truck and riser, not the best configuration but I will give it a try for a picture. I would like to see them slightly larger in all dimensions, also the slot for mounting hardware should be two holes instead to create a more stable base, again for these giant long hangers…
PS, they are a pain to install because you need like 6 hands to hold in the wires while mounting a heavy truck with motors mounted to it. I will work on a better method just because it’s dangerous to mess it up, you will smash your phase wires…

Look what Popped up! Nice and sturdy , took me a while to figure it out (I was like where’s the holes like a dumbass.make sure your wires aren’t short or there’s no point of the riser. It looks flexible like rubber but feels sturdy. Maybe it’s the transparency that throws me off.
Bad pictures sicne I don’t have screws to hold I.T down but:
I worry It might not fit my Echo wires which are similar to Carvons DD.
Thanks @Alphamail
Again , sorry about the low quality pics , but a test fitting with sensor motors with 12 awg wires
As you can see , no way your fitting that sensored wires in, though if it’s long enough like mines I.T shouldn’t be an issue.

Got the riser from @Alphamail and it looks well made and solid.
The translucent color is a little deceptive as it makes it look as if it should be squishy, but its very much solid.
My hub motors were supposed to be here yesterday, but DHL ding dong ditched me so now I have to wait until Monday for them and to finish up the build over the weekend.
anxious to get everything together at this point.
Ill also be needing to pick up longer bolts since the ones on hand are too short.

Finally getting around to install these on my Spud. Gonna try to carve them into submission. (Not gonna happen 
).
They are harder than they look, like a petrified gummy bear, and they feel very solid. And the translucent color is really cool. I think @b264 suggested the idea of LED’s in the riser, but I ain’t got time for that, so a shredlight mounted in front of it will have to do for now.
Before mounting them on my single Carvon v2.5 Spud, I thought I’d check the fit of dual sensored motor wires, and although it’s tight, they do seem to fit, 12awg sensor wires and all.

Those look absolutely incredible with the leds

Yeah, they light up beautifully. I can’t wait to see how the blue and red ones look.

some pictures of it inatalled. it does seem to be a bit in the way of the shred light and their mounts, so the cable needs some slack to be out of the way, but aside from that fit is great.

How is everyone going with the trial/test fit?
Pro/Con?
Can I still buy these

Yes, follow instruction in 1st post bro.
@squishy654 @Jc06505n @Mobutusan @Aleks
Please summarize your thoughts on the design, in particular:
Go with the design as is or does it need modification? I can open up the spacing for the wires in height and width but to do so the exterior will grow slightly but the overall height can stay the same. The exterior dimensions are at the low end of the spectrum so there is room to grow. I would prefer to do this right the first time we go into production.

Overall, I like the design, but if possible, I would like the riser to be a bit lower profile since I like to only use as much riser as necessary. The riser could be a bit wider and longer if that would help making it lower profile, and also cover the full area of the baseplate. I’d rather the riser be slightly oversize to accommodate various baseplates than too small. And if that allows for a slightly wider area for the wires to exit, even better.
I’d also like to see some old school type board rails in those yummy gummy colors that could accommodate some strip LED’s, and serve as grab rails for picking up and carrying the board. Something like this, but maybe tailored to Esk8 a bit more with a slightly more ergonomic shape for fingers to grasp.

Will 10awg and a sensor wire fit? Not for typical builds but maybe those bigger amp builds. Is not an edge case anymore to pull 100A+ with large motors and a big pack, if possible support 10awg to be all inclusive. A few mm, not sure of impact on feel and stability
So I am with Mobu, I really like my risers to be at least as big as my trucks base plate or a touch larger.
& looking at the feed back from reviews thus far it appears that three 10AWG motor wire will fit or three 12AWG motor wires and the sensor wires so people are running out of space with sensor-ed 10AWG motors.

borrowed picture.
i would say take some meat off the corners marked in green, to ease angle cables enter and have more wiggle room, and maybe round more of the corners.

Not at the office so I can’t experiemnt but they should , but only the phase wires not the sensors
