Grind box ripping up a 100mm eagle

[tdadd]

I have a grind box in my basement and I started to notice that my back wheel is getting torn up where the urethane meets the metal. There are nicks in the metal and the urethane is starting to peel. I'm starting to worry that the wheel might eventually debub. Does anyone else have this problem or know how to prevent it? Thanks

its called dehubbing and no.

it happens

its not dehubbing, but stop raping it on your grind box lol.

when you grind, try not to rub the wheel against the ledge. its not good for any wheel.

 

[dezbert]

yea, it happened to me awhile back. Just don't grind with your wheel touching the grind box like Greg said.

stop grinding

wheels are perfect but doesnt mean they are bulletproof....... (see my PM back)

if they arent bulletproof, they obviously arent perfect. you need to know these things...

Hahahhaa..... yes if you look it that way...but wheels are not ment to be bulletproof.......so they still are perfect for what they are being made for.

omg i just had the most amazing idea
put a tiny little piece of metal right in front of the wheel so it wont hit. lemme go try that brb

yeah this happens to me all the time as well. they dont dehub though they just get kind or scraped and don't look as pretty that is all.

you would want it to be something slick so that it wouldnt slow you down when you are grinding

But then wouldn't you grind right over it?
