Carbon GT Converted to AT Wheels

    So I was having a blast on the street setup and thought I would buy the conversion kit and try AT out.

    So the first thing I noticed is with the AT wheels, there is more resistance and the board slows down quicker on flats, and even downhill (it doesn't just coast like the street setup does), and I'm wondering if this is normal, if anyone else has noticed this, and if not, how do I fix that problem?

    I followed the most recent video from Evolve for the conversion (one silver washer, gear, black washer, wheel, black washer, nut).

    Cheers.

    I've experienced the same thing with my carbon GT and I think it's normal. The AT doesn't coast as much as urethane setup. Even going downhill there's resistance with AT kind of like driving downhill on 2nd gear. It actually feels much safer using AT going downhill cause you don't gain too much speed. Have fun.
