Great video Rob and really thorough review! We hope to have units by the end of March/beginning of April for sale with all the changes that have been discussed.

To your point about noseblunts Rob, Nate also mentioned this; however, because of timing we are unable to incorporate a larger distance between the front wheel and nose for this production run. Running 100mm wheels though should help this problem though.

Confirmed that the brake should be a flex fender type brake as offered by most aftermarket companies.

We are also testing a number of wheel compositions from some of your favorite companies out there to determine what the best hardness and rebound is based on your comments.

I would say 85-86a would be the best. You don't want something too slippery.

Nextsporrrttt have you considered my Am wing thing? at all?

Not sure what you're asking? Since we have the ability to make our own wheels there's really no need to outsource; as long as we find a wheel that has a preferable hardness we can make our wheels to be comparable.

85-86a is very soft. This would increase traction but also slow down the wheel and make it more likely to deform when heated up from use. "Slip" can be attributed to both the hardness of the PU and the composition of it- some sources and mixtures are just better than others.

Just as a point of reference the brands that are preferred based on the threads on this forum actually measure between 87-92a.

;) It's not. Probably poured to but it's not. If you have a durometer we challenge you to measure your wheels and see how hard/soft they actually are. Compounds can be made to achieve a certain hardness but usually aim for a range of stiffness as it's a challenge to consistently make an exact hardness every single time. There's a number of factors that go into the drying process as well and how things cure correctly.

85a is all that I will ride in park anymore. I ride inline speed skate wheels still and don't plan on switching to metal cores. I did have a durometer to his name was Fransisco and he would bite the wheels.

Fast, grippy, and strong. That's what everyone looks for. Eagles are perfect except they ware down too fast. Proto grippers are strong and dont wear down, but they arent as fast as Eagles. Something in between the two would be ideal.
