So JonnyB gave me a really old skateboard at Ace. It was no use for converting into a stanceboard in its own right but the back wheels were a good size and so ive fitted them. Heres a comparison of the size, white wheels are OEM, red is the new ones.
Heres how they look as a pair, got a mental bit of tuck and poke going on.
And they've given me the ground clearance i need to ride the board although only tried it 10ft up my garage. Look, Ground Clearance!!
Oh and got some tasty rake going on too.
I might have to put some narrower trucks on the front for some stupid tuck and it needs slightly bigger fronts and im not keen on the metal wheels off jonnys board.
Still want to build one with stupid wide trucks and no cutouts.
