[poll] Interchangable hubs?

[redline582]

Let TSI do it, Marcel has enough wheel credit as it is lol, the picture looks sooo sick.

 

[JDBen]

who has already done this??

 

[Mark Abramsky]

i had an idea for this marcel said it would be too expensive

 

[devinthedew]

Wtf thats legit!

 

[Zaηe]

this could either work really well or really bad.

 

[Joe Riley]

there should be a wheel with the PU stuck to a thin piece of metal that clicks into place on another piece of metal where the bearings go. if the wheel dehubs, get the outside part. if it ovalizes, get the inside part.

ahh the drawing got out. Oh well. Yea, I've been dreaming of getting this made for ages but the quote I got from a machine shop was over $1000 for just ONE WHEEL. That's the cost of tooling, designing, Materials, Labor, etc.

 

[blind47]

dude thats cheap!!
its gonna cost me 2k plus

 

[JarradSmith]

Saaawwweeeerrrtttt.

 

[stefetrucki]

hahah I also had that IDea for ages ago, also made a concept an recently talked to marcel too,..

new Hubs cost the same than just a part of the hub, cause the most expensieve part of the Wheel is the Pu und the work marcel has to make them

SO the only reason for making such Wheels would be to make extreme expensieve hubs, which no one would buy

Theres skate board company who'd done the same thing except the hub screwd into the other hub and used 3 bearings

Pretty Good idea.

Suprised that Proto hasn't done something like this already actually.

 

[Jamie N]

id like to see how it turns out, id recommend that you put slots for the nuts to go in so that you dont need to use a spanner, it should also make them look nicer.

andrews probably already looked into it but canned it because of the price.

 

[FITTEAMTRAIL]

Make both sides of each bolt to fit a 5mm allen key.

 

[Scooter Mcgee]

we are just waiting on the patent aproval YES WE HAVE applied for one. this is KC Cornings Re-Bound Wheel. Now you can take the poll with this as a "concept Idea"

when i read the topic i was like nahh thats probably a bad idea, not worth it.

but looking at that looks like a great idea.
