MONSTER BOOSTED BOARD WHEELS: NEW SPEED HACK!

I put 120mm wheels on my Boosted V2 and it increased the top speed from 22mph to 29 mph. You sacrifice torque and range, but you get a crazy top speed. Also, having bigger wheels means a smoother, more comfortable ride.

Love the video Sam and glad you loved the Foamies!

[@henrydenimdanger]

I miss the Boosted vids we need MORE

[@GregoryVeizades]

I wonder if you sized up the rear pulley in relation to the wheel size if you could get the big wheel benefits without the drawbacks. Making the wheel diameter bigger is effectively gearing it up. If you were to increase the pulley size to get the Motor RPM to Wheel RPM ratio back to normal you should be able to have the epic torque and braking efficiency of the small wheels as well as the better rolling characteristics of the large ones.

[@zachmoir]

Make some modifications and upload the STL to thingiverse, I'll be the first to download it and print it :D

[@matthewoconnor3376]

You do.

[@yogajitsu6757]

Then you dont get the speed. How much do you weigh? This guy looks way heavier than me so id make the conversion. If youre heavy then no because you need the torque. Im oribably 50 pounds lighter than this guy.

[@grantkobes]

@@zachmoir im gonna try and make these. The only problem is that it will bring the pulley size from the stock size of 56 teeth to a massive size of 84 teeth. Most likely gonna need to buy bigger, non tradtional size belts.

[@colvinau1403]

Haha get it “I wonder” that’s the brand of the wheels

[@AccidentalBroadcast]

How do boosted’s electronics correct the speedo reading for the larger diameter wheels? 29mph is most likely a false reading.

[@eddiefara]

nice video sam, made me miss the old school vlogs, but loving the new videos just as much.

[@TheRealJoeyB]

Typically ride sidewalks where I live, the cracks would hurt the ankles, have broken or sprained them 7 times total...so went to the OneWheel, but these larger tires would be better, would they fit on a V1

[@jd2rs]

These wheels look sick

[@samsheffer]

indeed, jason, indeed

[@ClarkDroneFilms]

They look slick

[@HotNHorny]

They do. They are significantly larger than stock and it looks like a beast on the Boosted Board. I installed mine this week and the ride is much smoother for sure.

[@juanmasanchez]

I'm only watching this video because of those NYC shots, thanks sam :)

[@carbon5r]

I have a mini x that runs 28mph on 90mm ollin popocas. I wonder if these foamies can do any better, what do you think?

[@BGaud]

It's like a boosted board for Overlanding! Awesome.

[@TheGSoutherland]

Watched your first boosted wheel video and didnt pull the trigger. I have a v2 and I'm gonna grab these!

[@BrandonDGr8]

You probably lose SO much range if you keep the standard range battery though. With the extended range battery, you range becomes basically what a stock standard range board has. Definitely try going off-roading with these wheels some time. It's a TON of fun to do ride dirt/gravel trails on a Boosted board of all things.

[@samsheffer]

i like having the standard range battery on there for super quick trips! ive got boas on my stealth and another v2 (XR batteries on both) for the longer trips ill prob end up swapping eventually

[@BrandonDGr8]

@@samsheffer true, could be good when you gotta go to and from somewhere super quick. I wonder how much faster you can go if you install these on the stealth. You'll likely break 30 mph.

[@azeldok]

@@BrandonDGr8 i need to see this on Evolve gtr

[@micahchapman2124]

hey im not sure if your aware but if you dont want speed you can but a diffrent pulleyy for foamies that lets them have increased torque

[@Justphred]

2:28 HAHA! great cut in

[@Peter.Fields.]

well, I do think that maybe you can take an evolve gtx, I don't like this brand but they have more power and also a lot of wheels options

hi sam hello from Cyprus. What about these wheels on a V1?

[@jdz4life]

Will this set up work on a mini x?

[@slickrevolution7046]

Jay Yamamoto yes! With a riser kit

[@KIMCHINAM]

Can u recommend some riser for mini x bro? I wanna change this wheel because my wheel feels like so hard

[@linaandersson5815]

Thank you Sam, this was interesting, Which are the red wheels you have on your stealth?

[@ryccoh]

Wait why didn't you slap those on the stealth?

[@agoogleuser6937]

Do you recommend the Slick Revolution Rough or Foamie wheels for cobblestone streets & truncated sidewalks?

[@namasthelo]

Do you prefer prefer the v2 or stealth ? Thanks

[@langcheng5443]

Vanguard style decks or any board with moderate flex will experience torsional flex and speed wobbles at 25+ mph.

[@tangchuho123]

Is this filmed on the iPhone 11? Feel like cruising in nyc would look so cool with that wide angle lens

[@dman1848]

[@abduadan5682]

Can we put this monster wheels also to backfire g2t ?

[@mmjjmm333]

What kind of nikes are those?

[@RL_81]

Bring this beauty to European cities, like Prague for example. It's all cubble stone. I bet those wheels might help with not loosing all teeth fillings, but once you fall with that speed...forget being left with any teeth.

[@KyproxOrnata]

I’m planning on modding my boosted board stealth with 120mm wheels. will the board itself collide with the wheels when turning in general?

[@hellohogo]

those look so sweet. would you say they allow for an easier time over big cracks and grates?

[@ronan9056]

what shoes are those?

[@HigherPlanes]

What do you season your boards with?

[@cosplay-welt]

I like the "KPH"! Thanks, cool video like usual! A German!

[@tommie9377]

Could you compare exway x1 pro vs boosted stealth also nice video

[@ProtocolOmega]

Imagine if Michelin got into making Boosted wheels?!? Great video Sam!

[@gtb_rc9383]

Anyone know the name of the app he used to track his top speed? I tried looking for “my ride” but it’s all stuff like Uber

[@gtb_rc9383]

Found it, it’s called “Ride - track your esk8 rides”

[@TDestremps]

Have you figured out the belt covers yet for these wheels? I'm considering going the foamies route instead of the boosted 105s.

[@Votypeks]

Yeah you should do this on Stealth/Hypermode

[@ItzLionz]

looks dope

[@Nick-xp4wq]

Just modded my big mac by taking out the lettuce. SUPER EPIC MOD

great video, would be cool that you mentioned the normal top speed in the video! its in the description tho i just realised

[@joshorozco1388]

erickh555 22mph

[@bikesandcoff3e]

About the battery swap. More weight usually carries more speed

[@BrettBrownlee]

I love foamies! I never feel the road!

[@JasperBzone]

Dope! Gotta get one eventually.

[@Buffetology]

Your going to need a Booster Box range extender so your range does not suck du to the higher draw on the battery from pushing those big wheels

[@MDegenerate]

Looking to buy a new eboard but hesitant to buy Boosted since limited support & might be difficult to find parts going forward. What board would you say is most similar to a Boosted board.

[@uhjyuff2095]

Wowgo 3x. If you have more money get Miles Rampage or Miles Panther with 6" All terrain wheels so smooth.

top speed or distance? i have a standard range battery on there, so with the bigger wheels, prob about 4 miles or so

[@daveyg0728]

Just FYI on my Stealth using the spacers I was able to to re-install my belt covers and they do NOT rub.

[@gghdjekrkk7711]

Sam try a 29th or a 23th gear that should give you an amazinh top speed

[@tassiavibes5719]

Hey, does anyone knows about LED wheels for boosted board?

[@dedearg]

Nice one

[@samsheffer]

thanks mr allen

[@theone8219]

Without the belt covers one small rock gets between the belt and the gears, the wheel locks and you go flying. Good luck.

[@MaVeRiCk77]

No belt covers on LaCroix. Never had an issue w/ either boards.

[@theone8219]

LJ Powell LaCroix motors are behind and above the wheels. Boosted motors are not. Therefore you’re a lot more likely to have rode debris get in them.

[@hellohogo]

and as I come by to watch this video again, don't think that your Dyson task light has escaped notice and awe 😎

[@MikeJobsonUK]

Plastic that acts as the bearing? Do they not have the larger sized bearings like the regular pulleys do? That board sits way to high for my liking. Nice video Sam 'Speed Junky' Sheffer :)

[@HotNHorny]

The pulley does not act as a bearing. He just mistated in the video. The inner bearing needs to be removed and the pulley fits inside the wheel and acts as a spacer. The pulley and wheel turns together and you only need two bearings. One small on outside of wheel and one within the pulley. Both wheels and pulley kit comes with ABEC 7s bearings pre-installed. Once installed, you will end up with 2 extra bearing spacers and 2 extra bearings.

[@MrEddieNunez]

[@king1ny]

Nice wheels!It's too bad Boosted got rid of the loaded decks.Big mistake.I don't think too many people like that composite deck on the new boards.Nothing beats the bamboo😔.I know two people who got the stealth and they both returned it.They still prefer the v2 over anything.

[@kvenrecords6657]
