Description
The motor mount is an essential piece to your DIY electric skateboard build. This is the foundation of the entire drive train, responsible for mounting your brushless motor and aligning your belt system. Our mount is designed to survive the harshest skating conditions. Its CNC machined 6061 aluminum construction provides strength and cooling properties all while being lightweight. The kit includes high quality metric hardware to prevent stripping from repeated installation. With a sandblasted black anodize finish, it is sure to add some style to your board.
The slotting features allow this mount to be rotated, flipped, and adjustable. Motor slots allow easy tensioning of various pulley and timing belt sizes.
The slotted idler tensioner system was first introduced by us in 2017. Its ease of use and excellent performance made it a design standard seen on all kinds of mounts on the market.
Idler Performance Advantage:
The idler pulley changes the path taken by the timing belt in order to engage more belt teeth on the motor pulley. This results in increased torque transfer without the skipping often seen with high power/fast acceleration boards. Less belt tension is required, reducing wear on motor bearings. For boards that demand the very best power transfer possible, this is right choice.
