Received a message from Richard that he'd sent out the correct 44T pulley, so hopefully I can carry on soon .... I did a lot of cutting the thick "sandpaper" with "metal sheet" scissors (if you cut with normal scissors, you will damage it !) to make some kind of pattern on the board. to be...

please notice that the rims of original skike wheels are wider than the ones from beetbocks. I don't know if they fit on a standard skate-truck ... Furthermore, using tyres will give more rolling resistance and as such less driving range of course. Sebastien

I've read your post and it gave a big smile on my face. :D You're a smart guy with good ideas and made it work, well done ! regards Sebastien

Uptill now I used ABEC11 83mm 78a wheels and on long rough tarmac roads my feet get numb .... That's why I've just bought 5" pneumatics. I think (hope) this will make my ride a lot smoother ..... (see : http://endless-sphere.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=35&t=56568&start=200#p1061808) Sebastien

Well to be honest, I have no idea! It was a nice reasonable priced board.... Currently looking for a decorative way to put the "sanding paper" on top. And maybe i'm going to put some colors on it as well.... I need to get some inspiration first.

42" board came in !! Quite a difference to the old one .... nicely long and more flex.

I was unhappy today when I dry fitted all things. The belt seemed too long but no, it was correct, 66teeth count. It appeared that I received the wrong pulley : 40T instead of 44T ...grrrr %$^$^%.. :( Just sent a message to Richard ..... Today I've put some air into the tyres with my footpump...

ok, thx, good tip, will do so !

haha, none of both in fact, nowadays I fly several other brands ; Compass 7HV, 90 size electric (field rep.) , Warp 360 but also Goblin 700 competition and since one month OXY3 helicopter of which I became team pilot. Don't you fly anymore then ? It was and still is my best hobby .... :D...

wheels , adapter and 44t pulley are ordered !! http://www.aliendrivesystems.com/store/p68/Urban_5_pneumatic_polymer_wheel-_4_pack.html I can't wait to start the conversion ! Sebastien

In the meantime I've found another suitable, cheaper one, which I've just ordered ! http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/42-RAW-FLUSH-MOUNT-FREESTYLE-LONGBOARD-SKATEBOARD-Deck-/371334632326?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item567544d386#shpCntId to be continued .... Sebastien

thanks for the link, I will have a look Seb

It's been a while but weather's become better and really wanting to order the 5"pneumatic wheels of Alien Drive Systems. However still searching for a decent prized longboard deck only, with a length of 42" , symmetrical, no drop down, preferrably 10" wide . I hope that any of you guys have any...

Hi Richard, this is a quite old post, but I'm still looking for a nice long deck (42" at least) for the 5" pneumatic wheels. Weather's become better so any suggestions are welcome. Then I can order the 5"wheels ... thanks Sebastien

well, to be honest, it did not get anywhere yet :oops: ..... so I can only hope it has enough power. On the other hand, I use (almost) the same motor on my longboard and that has gobs of power ... I'm more worried about the peak current during take off from a dead stop. Hopefully I can tell...
