project: custom metalcores is over =[ update on p.38

[briflip]

same^^

 

[bucket]

same, but i got a blade break which works so much better.

 

[briflip]

whered u get it

 

[Big L]

what type of urathane? like are they going to be like yaks or like pro model wheels? ( i think yaks are 85 a or somthing)

 

[Eric Magray]

yaks are 78a. i was hoping these wheels to be like 79 or 80ish

 

[gil_]

whatevers fastest

 

[chrisisme]

harder last longer and is arguably faster, but softer is smoother. I'd go 86A (pretty hard).

omg it would be awesome if we could like custom order wheels so that I can get hard 125 metalcores and other people could get Yak-like soft 100 metalcores and stuff. Too bad money is an object and there aren't enough scooterists to make a whole line of metalcores.

 

[Eric Magray]

haha i made a ghetto pair of 95d before.....like riding on ice.

 

[jeff26]

how did you make a pair?

i think the best hardness would be like 83a, in between yaks and low profiles. metal cores are a pretty good hardness too. so idk, id rather have a little bit harder.

 

[scooter justin 25]

let me know when they come in...cuz i want to buy like two or three

thated be great

and also i was wondering how do metal cores make the weel better?

 

[scooter justin 25]

and i also think 82a wheels would be good...

my old T.R.U.E wheels were that hardness

like..they were smooth and when you landed were not hard...but they took some of the impact and were very nice...thats the hardness id get

82a or 79-82a...cuz too hard wheels would break easy and to soft would just feel weird and be too soft...lol

just helping...dont have to listen to me

 

[chrisisme]

low pros are kinda soft. metal core hardness or possibly a bit less is ideal imo.

 

[Jordan Jasa]

low pros are kinda soft. metal core hardness or possibly a bit less is ideal imo.

what? low pros are like 86a, which is alot harder than yaks. I'd rather have a hard wheel so the urethane doesn't wear down as quickly.

 

[Steezeman]

Yeah I'd like a bit harder than Yaks for wearing issues.

 

[dre]

79-81a sounds pretty perfect to me. not too hard, but not too soft

 

[ScootingFred]

get hard wheels, the softies just get anhilated in the heat, and wear down too fast.

 

[briflip]

mildly hard and soft*

 

[Eric Magray]

how did you make a pair?

i used this round sample thing of 95d urethane and made a core for it out of hot glue and glued the bearings in. it was so bad to ride but so fun. i did a 360 flat on them.......without jumping

 

[zakmak]

who can do a 3d model for me?


we need it to send to lee already.

it needs to have the bowl design for the hub,
it has to specify the sizes for the hub urathane ect,
it needs to be 105mm,
i need 3 angles of it
and the bmx design flanges on the side and one of the angles has to show this and specify it.


thank you to whoever does it.

madis?

 

[conordavidson]

i'll do it by the end of the night.
