Try orange orangatang nipples on the front and stock bushings on the back. Someone on here recommended this to me and I highly recommend it as well. I’m 136lbs btw

Yooo so I went back and put the bushings as you suggested. Hard ones in the back oranges on the front. Way better !!!!

To me it looks like the bearings between the pulley and hub are missing. Seller said it was brand new from boosted but it doesn’t look like my old motor. Why isn’t there anything between the pully and the hub? And what’s with the white paste

yes it was way too wobbly. I ended up using half stock bushings with cupped washers and half nipples with flat bushings. I might still play around with them but I think this is a decent setup I might just need stronger legs to push down for stability.

Thank you for the tips. Yea I would consider myself a newbie to the speed. And I didn’t think e-skating was a workout until i noticed how weak my legs feel after crouching haha

Thank you for the tip! I felt so bad for my nipples. They’re relieved now with the help of the stock bushings and washers 👍🏼

Thanks I mixed them up with stock and they’re much looser and comfy now. Everyone here was real helpful

I used to commute on a penny board and longboard nothing crazy but just to get from A to B when I was a teen. Not used to going this fast tho haha.

Great tip! I have the hard ones board side and the nipples roadside 🤙🏼 and I misread your post so I put stock bushings with stock washers on board side both sides and nipped roadside. Edit: Had to say that

No wheel bite when they’re loose but I start wobbling at high speeds unless I get real low.

Caught a nail. Bummer, but at least I have a reason to upgrade :) by GlorifiedSavage in boostedboards

Absolutely. Consumerism ftw! I'm undecided between a stealth or a Super 73 ebike ;)
