Stuck at home? There’s never been a better time to give your board a full service. From time to time it pays to strip down the hardware on your Evolve and give it a little love to get it feeling like new. In this video, we show you a detailed guide of just how to do that so you can make sure you are doing everything you can and put it back together the right way! Fresh bushings, belts, bearings and anything else you need is online now!
When you disassemble your skateboard for maintenance it is your responsibility to ensure you reassemble it to its original state as an incorrectly constructed board may not perform safely. If you are unable to do this please see our ‘How To’ playlist for further video instructions, or contact your local Evolve service team and they will be happy to help!
What You Need:
- Multi Purpose Grease (we recommend lithium)
- Evolve Skate Tool with Allen key
- Small Pick/Screwdriver
- Bearing Lubricant (Evolve online or any skate store)
- Grip Tape Cleaner (we like Grip Gum)
- A Rag
- An empty tin/bowl
- Isopropyl Alcohol

Good vid - thanks. To adjust drive tension equally, while upside down, place chalk on wheels/belts, line up equally, creep slowly on safe mode, then adjust tension so chalk marks line up at each revolution. Found Isopropyl at Bunnings today. Keep up the vids.

@frozen6455 4 года назад

Thank you for video and for a great product. My 2 year old gtx is still amazing. However when I recently changed setup to at wheels I noticied a problem with one of the motors. When I spin the motors with my hand I can feel there is a lot more resistance in one of them. I can feel a quite distinct resistance every 5 mm of spinning, almost like clock ticking. The same motor also appears to be causing vibrations. It is not an issue of belt tension as this also happens with no wheels or belt on. Ultimately this added resistance in the motor causes that wheel to stop alot faster. Is this anything I could be able to fix or do I need to replace the motor?

Unfortunately I've started running into some very large issues with my board and I am not exactly sure what is happening. Its too bad that Evolve doesnt do a trade in program because I have no idea how to resolve the issue I am having.

@jamesferguson6583 4 года назад

Could I unplug one of the motors if I’m not riding too hard?

@evolveSkateboards 4 года назад

No, as it doubles the strain going through that motor, and halves your acceleration and braking ability with no benefit at all.

@samwilkinson8732 4 года назад

Where do I get a grip tape cleaner??

@evolveSkateboards 4 года назад

Most skate stores - search from Grip Gum!

@obbekjaer 4 года назад

Or use a nail brush. That's what I have been doing to my longboards for years now. First take any dirt that has been allowed to dry so you can more or less just dust it off and then with ever so little water on the brush, touch it up. Grip tape cleaner is better, but the other way works for me :)

@adamretschlag4665 3 года назад

Like most things these days they designed in Australia and built in China.. the labour costs and parts are much cheaper over there wich saves the company alot of money compared to if they built them here in oz , the quilty control has improved alot over the years wich is a good thing

@Magpie1701 4 года назад

You should probably replace them proactively instead of waiting for something to fail, potentially catastrophically. A new set of bearings is inexpensive compared to your wellbeing.

@Luca-id9op 4 года назад

Hey evolve here is a good business idea. Because you are all about customization and making the ride your own it would be cool if you could offer different types of controllers (maybe one that can go backwards). This would be great because a lot of people are unhappy with the remote. Maybe you could make a remote with a scroll wheel or something...

@evolveSkateboards 4 года назад

Hey Luca, cheers for the advice!

@brianwestgate7055 4 года назад

I would agree, scroll wheel is the way to go. And reverse allows a full stop.

How often do you perform maintenance?

@evolveSkateboards 4 года назад

It depends on how much you ride. When your board starts squeaking and creaking, or you can see a build-up of muck it's time to give it some love.

@terminator8220 4 года назад

Is my deck supposed to show crack marks at the top and bottom.

@evolveSkateboards 4 года назад

It depends! If it is just the joins in the bamboo that's normal. If the ply has begun to crack it may or may not be an issue depending on how bad it is. Reach out to your local Evolve service team with some photos and they will help you out!
