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 (I went to the "compressor-pump" at two local gas stations, but for some reason they don't blow air into the tyres ??? Maybe the compressor wants to see some "counter-pressure" , anyway I've found it very strange !) and noticed that they are not wobble free, despite using the tip from Richard.... mmm ....
There's quite some difference beween the wheels as you can see. Also, the 5" are 30grams lighter, each ! Nice !
I think I will use some spacers to increase the width a little more.
Here's some comparison of the new 5" wheels compared the ABEC 11 83mm wheels :

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

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.

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 continued ....
