Much better offroad because you have heaps more sidewall. This gives more cushion over bumps, drops ect. Also your board won't be kicked sideways so much when you hit the tire one just one side. Cons.... none really?

@Alex-ge6fo 9 ай бұрын
Does this have any effect on motor temperature, riding the 5" hub vs the stock hub in identical conditions? Besides getting some extra suspension with the higher sidewall tire, are there any other performance impacts?
@HoverHev 9 ай бұрын
I asked this in an earlier video and they said the motor temperatures were good in their testing. Despite there being less material to act as a heat sink the thermals might be better as it's anodised (larger surface area) instead of powder coated (which traps heat in).
@Alex-ge6fo 9 ай бұрын
@@HoverHev Thanks for that info and perspective. The way they replied you - "temperatures were good" - doesn't fully answer my question. Maybe the motor didn't overheat to the point of failure in their testing but I want to know if and by how much the temperatures went up over stock hub, everything else equal. TFL - please answer this question!!!

I wanna get the GT-s and get the MTE with 52 and a Hoosier 11.5. 5-5 (I think)...but, I have no care to ride trials, and do tricks, I mostly cruise street...I just want feel safe ant any speed and get the most excelleration up and down small hills as possible...Would this setup really benefit me? I never cruise over like 15 mph, but would love to feel safe and in control at 20 MPH...

Doing this install now and currently having trouble putting the axel back into the locks with the smaller rim space. Any advice?
@renec5006 5 ай бұрын
Dumb question, but when you drop the stator into the new hub, and it gets sucked in, will the axel kind of just line up and go through the hole? My N52 MTE is supposed to be arriving tomorrow and I’m starting to think this may be above my pay grade. Kind of nervous about installing it.

It's a lot easier to take the plate off. I spent two hours trying to put that darn tire on the hub. I used dish soap and heat, but nothing worked. Finally, I decided to take the plate off, and the tire slipped on without a problem. It was also the soft compound, so I couldn't imagine how hard it would be with the mid compound.
