Description
69.5MM. What is special about THESE wheels and why are they more expensive than other wheels? We can sit around and claim we last longer, but those who have ridden THESE know that they last much longer than anything else out there. We could have gone out and purchased a nylon hub for pennies, wrapped it in subpar urethane and charged $90 something per set, but that's not what we are about, so we designed a core that will not only support a DH/Freeride wheel, but actually enhance it. Then, instead of sourcing the core out, we make each one in house. More work goes in to producing each core than the rest of the wheel. After the core is treated, we wrap it with top grade polyurethanes blended to our specifications. The response from some of you regarding our price and durability is very similar to the feedback we received when we released SPF and STF in the BONES Wheels line and I believe we proved our quality and durability. Skate One has a reputation of building top quality products and it is one of the main reasons we have remained in business making skateboard products for over 35 years.
REVIEW
These Wheels are shipped stone-ground, so they ride straight out of the shrink just as they will after a few quick slides. That sets the tone for the overall ride of the wheels: consistent. Powell's FRF urethane formula does a number of things well --those that stood out most were the control and the feeling of the drift. These Wheels ride well and they ride controlled. There is none of the chatter and chattering that's sometimes experienced in hard-edged slides with other wheels. The drift itself is quick to be controlled and reacts to board control with a reliable and steadfast sense of consistency. We rode these wheels over various pavement types and the wheels responded the same whether we were on crushed aggregate or dirt-polished pavement. They seemed to be very forgiving of conditions and the urethane depth seemed to more than compensate for even the worst of the stuff we threw at the wheels. The ability
