      Instead of building a completely different onewheel suspension design, I've decided to build a new improved model based on the first one.
      The first build has been working well for over a year but had a few design flaws.
      List of improvements:

      • delrin plactic instead of brass swing arm bushings, delrin is self lubricating
        -upgraded the air shock to a new Marzocchi Bomber Air
      • improved swing arm geometry for move suspension travel
        -moved the swingarm pivot back 1/8 inch for more connector clearances
        -controller wiring will be inside the rail instead of external
        -may use a Plus battery box with a Quart style battery, the Chi Stunt pact uses the 15s 1p Molicel 42a cells same as Quart. Shorter range, but lighter as this will be a grocery getter
        -I also have the option of vesc as I already have a XR controller box and vesc all set up for 18s.

      I will be making the wire harnesses in the next day or two.
