The Raptor 1 has 180mm caliber 2 reps and they felt a bit squirly above 30 but that was due to me using original bushings and just tightening the trucks up. With a proper bushing set up and skill caliber 2 are good at higher speeds.
Wait where are you from/at?
I grew up in NJ but Iāve been living in Miami FL my adult life.
Well no wounder why you ran 48mph you guys are naturally insane speedsters
Lmao we can be crazy with speeds here.
Maybe one day, Iāll be in Florida and join a group ride with you guys and hack all your bt modulus and make the top speed like 25mph then I could enjoy a calm group ride
Well thanks for the help man! I had a single drive that skipped (Bad alighnment etc) and was thinking about chain drive, Now I can calmly go dual motor belt drive.
I want to test 16t/42t on 6 shooters should reach a little over 50mph on the awd set up
At that speed I would be worried that your tyres could burst from high pressure etc.
Dave assured me they can handle much more speed trust me I was worried too lol
Miami is the greatest place, tons of fun to ride, everyone is so cool about esk8 down there. And @Battosaii will show you a great time, stand up guy and very knowledgeableā¦and skates like a banshee .
Well, Iāll have to keep an eye out for cheap flights, Make my brother a good esk8, Get a drivers licence because distances in the states are so big that youād need 2 drivers.
Edit: Dang flights to NYC only cost 120e (at cheap times)
Itās not too bad. Ill have my current board to ride and lend out once I finish this board.
Itās a arbor deck with evolve trucks, a 12s4p and dual 6355 itās pretty quick.
What size tires are these? 6inch or 5 inch (rare to find)
6 shooters like the same suggest use 6" nylon belted tires. They last quite a while and can handle high speeds.
Hi Battosali, Fairly new to the esk8 scene but already looking to build a board with long range and after following this thread just wanted to ask if you could give some advice on the type of bms, motor controllers that can handle a 12S8P battery pack. Any help would be much appreciated.
Cheers
Maverick
