Great job. Now get well bro. While I watch this again and again

Very educational video and I cant wait to meet you at next years Esk8con!

Glad to see you still making videos after that ankle injury, get well & stay on the grind 💪🔥

Yes, this is a real find and this video should go down in history and be saved in my bookmarks and for all beginners.

This the video I will share to anyone who doesn’t understand about how pulleys work. Very well done Fred, thank you for making this informative video🤙👌

Great video. I ride a Meepo Hurricane belt drive on 200mm pneumatics and 66T pulley. Never been happier. I’ll never go back to polys.

Very helpful they don’t have videos like these my guy killing it!!! 🤙🏼🔥

This was some good stuff!!! Thank you for making this vid! Very informative! get well soon!

nice information here my man, heal up and stop re-hurting yourself!

exactly the type of videos i needed, sometimes it feels like i need to be a mechanic to understand eboards. This is awesome and all i need is to understand the belts that go with the pulleys.

Nice video. One thing I would mention is that at the end of the day what effects the performance of the board is the ratio between the rotation rate of the motor axle and the wheel (Gear ratio). When you change the pulley size and wheel size this alters the gear ratio which alters the top speed/ acceleration. The other things that has an effect is the moment of inertia of the wheel and how much the wheel deforms while it’s rolling (nematic wheels deform more then PU wheels)

Watched again, My skill vs top speed is beginning to level out. Gonna go with dadbod 105's. Thanks again

Thanks for the info I’m trying to create my own electric board with the board I got rn and this pulley stuff is what I needed to learn

thanks so much for your help on this topic brodda

Nicee Video!!! now all you need is to make a video on belts and which sizes would be best for performance, speed and ect

Bloody brilliant video

underated video super informative

Super solid video. I appreciate you not making the “best board” comments. However, it would be cool to maybe see your reviews of the boards in a group test, but definitely to have your reviews of different wheels on different boards/trucks

Great video bro, hope the ankles cool

Love your content. Keep it coming. I wish they made more pulleys for AT. Do you use 47T evolve pulleys with your 150mm hota's?

Absolutely agree with all you day here. Sounds Like we both down for a minute haha, I'll catch up on ig ma G. Respect as always.

Education is important. I see comments and random throw away lines from other youtubers about different pullys not working. This right here was hella informative. Thanks dude. Keep up with the informative content while that gash heals.

You gotta talk about belts. Belt knowledge is key to pulleys. Size matters 12mm width compared to 15mm. It’s different on some boards. 265,275,325 etc.

Question, Torque/acceleration is that jerky feeling when maxing out the throttle on the remote? I know this is mitiagtes by proper stance and overall adaptation to the board. Does bigger vs smaller have a bigger power draw? Like less range using one over the other

Great video, just what I needed as a beginner! Do you know of any smaller tooth pulley sets that are compatible with the stock acedeck rim? Changed to the hotas but my top speed is slower than I'd like.

Hey I've got A question about motor pulleys in general.. I've been looking for some D Shape 15T motor pulleys and can't find much other than some 6061 aluminum motor pulleys from HTD with double grub screws.. just wondering is 6061 pulleys will be strong enough or will only steel work?

Gota board wit 6368 3000*2 Watt motors Wit 105 Hydro Wheels which abec pulley would U Recommend for Fastest Performance..?

Hey, nice vid bro. I have a Ex way atlas pro 2nd and the momentum hollow 105mm wheels, what toothed pully would you recommend?

@esk8unity

Жыл бұрын

thanks bud.. the exway trucks are a bit different from most other truck axles. I believe the atlas is a lot larger so the bearings for ur pullies are much larger in diameter . if im right about that, then ur stuck with what exway sells with there kegal sets (make sure its the 10 hole/prongs, not 12 that they have that comes standard)… but as i mentioned in the video, its really personal preference but with that board id go for 36t - 38T

Would you say the Propel Pivot GT competes with the performance boards you have?

Thanks!

Could I pair the 40t with the dad bods on my hurricane? I like that low down torque so it would interest me. Also if so, what sort of top speed would I be looking at? 29/30??

@esk8unity

Жыл бұрын

40t is a pretty big pully. so u will have a good amount if torque off the line. not lots of high speed. im thinking 29-31mph

Smaller wheels and smaller pulleys for range?

With 110 cyclone wheels I can have 36T?

Hey Fred, I'm confused. I thought more teeth on the wheel pulleys mean faster acceleration and lower top speed, and vice versa for pulleys with lower teeth count. Are you saying that you prefer smaller pulleys because you are willing to sacrifice acceleration for a higher top speed? Wouldn't accelerating from 20mph with smaller pulleys be weaker in this case?

@esk8unity

Ай бұрын

yes thats correct. so if ur using larger T pully, and ur already traveling at 20-22mph, and u hit the throttle, ur not really gettn much more juice outta the board. so a smaller pully will allow u to have more speed left in the tank throttling at 20mph: acceleration off the line is already very good for a lot of these newer boards even with smaller pullies

Hey man, great video, I also love to ride fast with street wheels, great to hear all this info coming from you who got experience with all these boards!
