Grand FB wheels are $18 USD for the cheap ones and $47 USD for the most expesive which is dual bearing.

are the $18 ones the same as the duel bearings like same shape an material?
cause I got an idea for that

I'm not sure if they're the same shape, but my friend has the clear street wheels for 18 euros. They are amazing, but if have BRT's I would recommend the Ghost Ride wheels as those are my favorite.

hum ill keep that in mind,
I was thinking of getting the std grands

EDIT: can someone send me a pic of fbs tape worn in or just on their deck?
I wanna see what it looks like before I buy it

They just look like regular foam tape. It's how the tape feels that differentiates it from others.

Yeah, it's just regular tape. But if feels really nice and grippy but still smooth at the same time. (if that makes sense?)

Are oak wheels supposed to feel rough? They don't feel as smooth as winklers or even nolliewheels roundabounts. Do they have a break in period or something similar?

basically because they're urethane wheels they're a bit uneven at first, but once you wear them in over a few weeks they feel nice. I'm no expect on oaks though, others can chime in on that more

Does anybody know any news or rumors about X5's, BRT 3.0's, or any other pro truck that might be coming out?

Interested in this. Anyone know when this is gonna drop. Also, I think no new x5s nor 3.0s are gonna come out as there aren't alot of 34mm users and new trucks always comes out when new sizes are becoming standard.

For some reason, Riptape slim and catchy has been shrinking on all three of my boards i have them on. Is this happening to anybody else? Does anybody know how to stop it?

I've heard that Slim and Catchy does shrink over time. I'm not sure how you stop it though :/

Do ff G6's fit on ytrucks? Im having a problem with mine on my ytruck x3's.
Im bummed, they get caught on the hanger.

they should work, maybe try using washers or pivot cups to prevent the wheel from getting caught in the hangar?

That's what I was thinking, figured id get some input from here first.
Haha, smarter than I thought.

I wonder:

Whenever I received a deck with free riptape included, I preferred that riptape to those established brand types (FBS, BRR).

These generic tapes I'm referring to they wear off quite quickly, BUT they just feel ten times smoother and stickier than those expensive ones.
Can anyone here point me in the right direction where to get this type of riptape?

Thanks

It really depends on the deck. Can you give an example of a deck that have included tape that you liked? Someone might be able to tell you what kind that deck comes with.

Thanks Mikkel

I liked those that came with the DK decks from Russia as well as the Sliver Gang...

hello,
I recently got new brts but every few minutes or so the hangar slips out of the pivot cup. I've tried reassembling the trucks a few times but it still keeps on happening. Does anybody know how to fix this?

That does tend to happen, once you ride the trucks more the pivot cup will start to loosen up and the hangar will stay in much better, just takes some riding for the hangar to settle in fully.

DK decks is from Ukraine, but same same I really liked their tape aswell, no clue what it is. Maybe you could contact Max and ask him to buy a bunch.
