No they are not matched to the wind. I have switched mine all around as needed as I have about 2 or 3 that went bad.

Yes..You can interchange endbells or sensors on DUOs...

I have no parts at moment..next load is due in aprox 2 weeks time. DUO 2 Motors about same time frame. I will keep ya all posted as I get new's.....

No Reedy Race Tim..I need to stay sorta local till early June as wound is still 1/2 open...

Mike DUO 2 is basic same with updated color can for tech,better bearings and more durable rotor....

But a DUO 1 will still always rock also...

Thanks.

I know speed passion sensor boards work on Duo's too. sensor boards in 17.5/13.5/10.5 motors appear to be interchangeable.

Tag, any chance you cn have spares on hand for us to order in case they go bad? I have enjoyed the motor that I got from you several months back and it still has rip in it. I would like to keep it around longer since I am on a budget right now. Ordering a new motor would not be allowed for me right now. Any word on this would be greatly appreciated.

as I understand, trinity does not have a supply of spare parts for the duo motors. so basically the only way to maintain a spare parts inventory is to break down the motors. not necessarily profitable. i am sure there are pieces of the motor that don't request very frequently

What he said. I've been swapping parts left and right between my 17.5's and 13.5's, especially rotors. Carlos, I'll get the sensor out to you tomorrow, no charge--happy Mother's Day.
