Superstar hubs with 36t pulley

Close - it’s the 6374 192kv. I tried running a 6354 for a bit and it got blazing hot.

Is that the motor that you run the set up on? I ask because I have the 149kv so may be I might be able to run 36t wheel pulley with the 15t motor pulley and still have the torque

Yea that’s probably doable @10s or @12s if you weigh about the same as I do. Just don’t expect to be climbing major hills or anything like that

What is the max speed you go with that board? 10 or 12s?

Assuming you are going to run:

10S battery 149kv motor 15/36T 8" Primo Alpha Tires on superstar hubs Your final speed will be 73km/hr

Hence your torque will suck balls, your belt will slip a lot and your board will have no brakes at all

You need something like 45km/hr on an average battery and 55km/hr on a high powered battery to have a fun board.

So this is what I’d suggest

12S battery 149kv motor 15/62T 8" Primo Alpha Tires on superstar hubs Your final speed will be 51km/hr

Great brakes, no belt skipping, amazing torque, great tires!

I was thinking more like 10s 149kv 15/36t 6inch pneumatics Which would give me around 55km/hr

That could work but the brakes will not be very good, the belt will skip and you will have low torque, not an optimal setup, if you want to stick with this setup go ahead and keep us posted, but this is something I’d never even try it myself as I already did it once and brang me too many issues

@Eboosted With a 10s battery 6inch pneumatics on 149kv motors what set up would give me more speed? Say 30mph+ I ask because I started on an evolve and now 21mph doesnt do it just trying to speed it up without losing alot of torque out here where I live the roads suck and not alot of sidewalks and all these esk8 calculators dont factornin torque atleast not from I have noticed

Why are you sticking with such a low count pulley? Get a 12S the torque on mid range is amazing and get a 44T pulley.

If you can build a 12s5p the board will be a true beast otherwise stick with 12s4p that’s what I use and it’s more than enough on my Trampa

I would recommend you go 170kv, 12S5P 30Q and slap 51t pulleys on 6" AT and 15t motor pulley.

Fully charged you should hit 39mph at 100% charge and at 36 volts cutoff hit 27mph. That fast enough for you?

170kv at 50.4v(fully charged) and 15amps continuous times 5 for parallel should produce 3,780watts.(1890w for each motor)

I have enough batteries to do that 12s5p just need a 12s bms to charge them properly. But since I already have all these other parts on me I’m trying to stick to them since im on a budget @Eboosted @Brad

You can still get a DieBie BMS if you want one.

Ive been reading on this and the only thing that sets me back is the price. I dont mind the size of the bestech bms but like I mention before I’m trying to stick to what I already have. But maybe later in the future I will upgrade

@anorak234 what size screws are the ones on your hubs. Im not sure if they are m6 or may be higher? But I measured them at 5.8mm still looking around to find them

They’re just extra long skate screws - 3 inches I think. I still need to cut them…

Nice lol hope they come off clean

10s - theoretical top speed is around 40, but I’m only daring enough to go 25

Hey Frank do these come with hardware or how do they attach to the superstars? https://www.electric-skateboard.builders/t/superstar-hubs-with-36t-pulley/52300/26?u=lambjr088

They don’t need any additional hardware. The superstar screws go straight into the pulley.
