Just got a bamboo GT - ? about speed rings

    I traded a boosted dual plus for a very lightly used Bamboo GT.

    Love it so far.

    It's in street setup, and I took the wheels off to inspect.

    One wheel has 1 speed ring between the gear bearing and shaft, another doesn't have one at all.

    I saw in the manual you were supposed to have 4?

    If so where can I even find the right size speed ring, they don't seem to be available on the Evolve website

    thanks for your help

    I believe they revised the speed rings from 4 to 1.

    A front wheel should have two small black speed rings for either side of the wheel bearings.

    A rear wheel should have one larger silver speed ring, which is the first thing on the hanger and should stay there, plus the two small black speed rings for either side of the wheel bearings.

    This is regardless of a street or AT set-up.

    Bearing spacers are different (not sure if this is what you might be talking about). One per wheel in between the bearings - don't skimp on this - eboards are put under more axial and torsional loads than a regular skateboard. No spacers can easily result in a wheel blowing out.
