Where's the fun in that?

the heat may make the urathane come looser from the core

you are so right

ok i acually put it too the test. i took a broken low pro that broke cuz i didnt ride it front first. I used a file and scraped 100 times, and gathered the powder. then i put the wheel in hot boiling water for 1 min, the straight to ice water for like 2 min. i dried it off, let it sit to reach room temp. i re filed it with the same pressure 100 times. much less powder came off. there is room for error here, so its not definitive, but it does seem to work some what.

now try that with a new wheel and see if it does the same. then try riding it and see if theres improvement.

i tried it last night with a new low pro
i didnt even bother trying it in the front
i stuck it in the back
and rode
and it felt a bit harder on landings and it actually didnt break until the cores broke after 5 minuets

 

[qwxor]

would it be worth it to do it to a stock wheel or no

 

[jakob-b]

probably not just dont land sideways and you wont brake your wheels lol

we could be on to something here, sounds good atm. But it still wont help de-hubbing right?

 

[Nick Morland]

it might cus if u heat it up enough the urethayne might mold with the core.

^
i think it does help
after i tried those wheels
i nromally just dehub them in like 30 sec
but for 1nce the cores brok so...
this might be somthing good to do on metal cores but idk if anyone would try that

 

[demo]

i want to try it, but i want to try it on a metal core.... it might make egael sports harder and wore the money??? someone needs to try this

 

[Nick Morland]

id try it but no way ill risk ruining a metal core and guys as paul said were onto something here.
