Finally brought my DSLR on a ride with me yesterday, glad I did, I found….

I’ve been gathering real world performance data on how the Ecomobl ET electric longboard performs prior to my review, here’s some footage shredding up a dirt trail, since I installed the power esc, these trails are almost too easy for this board. Honestly, I love it!
Inspired by Michael Menard,
Tyler Black and Piotr Zdanowski, I have pulled the trigger on a wheel upgrade for the Ecomobl ET longboard, however, I have remained with the solid tire construction so I can proportionally modify the rear tires as well.
This modification is to increase the diameter of the wheels from 150mm – 200mm, resulting in more top-end speed (not that the ET needs it) and with a thicker tire compound, I’m eager to see how that translates with road feel, whether or not it will absorb bumps/vibrations or if it will remain much the same.
Listed below are the parts from Aliexpress that I have purchased for testing purposes
200x50mm Front wheel assembly including 10mm bearing for immediate install (x2)

and 200x50mm Rear solid tires that should fit directly over the ET rear hubs (x2)

PLEASE NOTE: I don’t recommend anyone else purchasing these until I have concluded that they will all fit and function safely.
The first major modification that is required is lengthening the truck axels to accommodate the 50mm wide wheel centers vs the ET stock 25mm, these upgraded front wheels require twice the axle length which is achievable with some modifications. Again I’ll have to provide an instructional when they arrive.
