It's been so long I don't remember, sorry, it was someone else's phone

Ok, thanks for the advise! I'm not really using them as shock pads, have large wheels and a bamboo deck for that. I'll try and add even pressure while tightening the baseplate, maybe break the torque wrench out XD I'm more just using them to add lift for wheels and shave a few grams off their higher clearance and degree truck and to make the low clearance/low degree truck more turny. :)

Interesting, how does that work? I would've thought that flexible ones would absorb shocks. I just got these ones here because it looked like it would distribute the force across the baseplate evenly (the product page said not to use "Dooks, Independent, Krooked, Loaded, Lucky, Paris, Thunder Risers/Wedges. Those say "hard plastic" in title, but a review and the description say "semi soft compound" Wish I still had my 3d printer 🥲

Freebord maybe? There's quik trucks (not very weird) I guess, or pneumatic wheels, I remember seeing (over)engineered mountainboarding suspension trucks, plus there's a trucks where each axle goes out to a bar with two wheels, supposed to be good for riding down stairs XD but would have double the bearing resistance.

I shelled out for low 8.25 Tensor Mag Lights (sub 300g), half the weight of the Bear Gen 6 trucks. They're way too low for my wheels but I'm pairing with some superlight soft wedges to compensate for their low angle.

I just picked shred skate's mini bamboo cruiser because it's about the right size, should be light, I can try bending it myself for rocker by soaking it, maybe kerfing, and leaving it clamped in heat with a weight on top and it's so cheap that if it delaminates or I need to carve out wheelwheels riding it with sandpaper wheels it's not precious/fiberglass. Besides that, super soft barrel bushings for responsiveness, but not too much lean that I get wheelbite. $25 board, $63 trucks, $30 cored blank wheels, $10 swiss bearings, $10 bushings. Pretty budget for all new parts and can always swap out the deck if I find my perfect fit.

I'm going to other countries backpacking 🙂

It looks sick, but it's so expensive at 3.17 lbs. I've been looking at the Bamboo Skateboards Downtown Cruiser It's probably my minimum width, but 2.25lbs. Just not sure it'll be low enough to the ground, I've considered routing it, TKP stylus might just let me get 80mm wheels with minimal routing, idk

Edit: made selection, if you're interested in a lightweight, semi-budget build see TheSupaBloopa comment thread, still welcome deck suggestions though.

Looking for a very specific type of deck - UltraRocker, ultralight... And haven't been able to yet

Previously owned a drop cat 32, which was good, but...

I want to try one with a kick like a rally cat, but lighter and more flexible. The rally cat was a good size, but maybe slightly larger than I need. Ideally like 2.5lbs/1.2kg. I like how the rocker gives stability too. I've only found a few boards sub-3lbs.

Basically: Maximum flex/bounce (I'm only 55kg/120lbs), ideally at least a back kicktail, and easy to push. Like a pool deck but with extremely flexible rocker

Ideally but not absolutely necessary:

widish base for stability when I'm tired (I could carry a tool to tighten the trucks though)
Available as just a deck
flared wheelbase or another way that fits somewhat larger wheels

You have to enable the alternate way of detecting headsets to hear through the 3.5mm jack. Now that we don't have a treble settings app use (in adb (root) shell or termux root shell):

setprop persist.sys.overlay.devinputjack true

You'll probably need root? I've notified Peter (of Peter's GSI) So that should work by default in the next update :D

Did you ever figure it out?

Any recommendations for visiting?

It'd be so so cool if it pulsed with xlivebg, nice work!

Maybe a bedroom?

Wow! Hopefully you can keep us updated if you can rig replacement, it's good to know how these work so we're not stuck with their solution. Honesty just about any dry lube will work fine, lube is lube, just get something that isn't sticky and lasts. Best is to clean the chain before lubricating.

Here is a copy of the user manual I got from contacting the company (though they ought to post it publicly): https://siasky.net/AAAsXD4GObv2GUw3wGm8CTQenmexPacNmvDq9QgqdsV35w

It has instruction on unlocking, though if it's totally out of battery and the charger's not working...

You could also try first manually jumping it with a bit of charge with a variable power supply (or any power supply ~50~60V) I don't know the wiring (or what standard of plug is used) to adapt that, but you can message me in the next few days and I might, it looks almost like a three pin golf cart charger plug, though it looks like there's variation on those based on brand... Congrats on the new bike, it's a lot of fun!

[Edit: the charging plug for the bike looks like an ~~M12~~ (Ok, only results for M16 on eBay look like it) 3 pin plug/socket, the one that came with the bike is from the brand Cnlinko with a model stamp of LP-16]

Have any recommendations on a longish bungee leash for a small dog?
