@torqueboards I see I see. Are you guys putting an edged lip on them? imo they’re the most important feature in a nice grippy wheel

@Apolo I assume your referring too similar to kegels… I was thinking less lip but it’s still something around 61mm contact patch which is much larger that Kegels so it would still be much more grippy.

I’m interested in the direct drive nice.

Also wheel Duro should be 75, 78 is too hard and anything in the 80s is garbage imo. If 75 was an option I bet that would be number one in the votes and you would have a hot seller.

I can’t wait to see what you have coming in the future

@Battosaii - I’ll add 75A. @ATLesk8 - not yet :slight_smile: You’ll like them though… should be less than a few weeks we’ll post them…

Added 75A DURO… Don’t think I can edit a poll.

  • 75A Duro
  • 78A Duro
  • 80A Duro
  • 82A Duro

108mm x 74mm would be better, and make it thin-lipped so it’s lighter. It’s the width that makes it go over railroad tracks and obstacles much better, especially if the lip is flexible

Or even 103mm x 74mm if you gotta

@b264 lol that 1mm really does that much… you’re already at 107! might as well make it even.

Now that I think about it, we should stick with prime numbers

89, 97, 103, 107, 109, 113, 127

Just because we can :stuck_out_tongue:

These Boa wheels say 82 and they are definitely not hard and they are not chunking either…

My Abec 107 are 74a and they aren’t chunking either 500ish miles later.

113 mm should be awesome. I never found information about these :point_down: wheels and the board (kiteboard), a D-EX, apparently made in the UK. Always thought they were the coolest wheels ever but don’t know neither the brand nor the size (??)…

100mm is more than enough in my opinion. Using 83mm on all my boards atm

22

Can’t wait to see these. What would it take to get in on that beta run? :smiley:

I don’t think these wheels are designed for you LoLzz

LOL you guys make it hard…

Pretty much 50/50 for 100mm vs 107mm.

I am mostly going with 107mm 74A and later down the line we’ll offer 100mm as well.

As for colors… You can choose multiple options.

  • Black on Black Core
  • Yellow on Yellow Core
  • White on Black Core
  • Clear Blue on Black Core
  • Pink on Black Core
  • Red on Black Core
  • Orange on Black Core
  • Purple on Black Core
  • Solid Colors
  • Pastel Colors
  • Transparent/Clear Colors
  • I hate all these colors

@torqueboards I heard different color pigments can affect urathane quality, imo go with what works best for the formula, black cores go with any build.
