i was just wondering first if anyone has flatface g5 wheels and how good are they and why they were discontinued i also was wondering if flatface g6.5 wheels are real because someone said on youtube he had a set and if they are real why they were discontinued to

Yeah g5 wheels pretty much dropped off of the planet. I dont know what happened with them, and no, im almost positive that there are no such thing as "g6.5" wheels.

g5s were improved, and g6 was the result. Seems kind of obvious to me.
And yea, g6.5? A lie most likely.

i actually remember reading that there used to be a something .5 wheel but i dunno lol
dont trust this kid, he'll probably scam you

lool 6.5 never heard of those and if they were real the guy would sell them at a very high price because they would be sooo rare

well he was just saying that he had g6.5 when i was watching a review a loong time ago when i was thinking about flatface wheels

i know I am very new here but i started fingerboarding around 2006 and I know for a fact that flatface g6.5s are real because I even ordered a pair from the flatface website and am still riding two right now(the other two broke). G6.5s came out when g7s came out and mike said there were only 30 or something like that sets made. they are backless just like g7s but only have one bearing unlike two and they come in the o material goldy colour.

Yeah. G6.5's exist. I think in the "a" material.. they are the same shape as 7.1. and i'm pretty sure they were for brt's

naa they came out a very long time before blackriver trucks came out and they only had them in the "o" material

oooooh, really? well, I stand corrected. Thankyou for the info!

they are most deff. in the A material.. i'm not so sure about the "o" for all i know they are. someone on here has a set if i'm not mistaken. maybe tmg

i have them in "o" and i got them from the flatface website before it changed in like 2007 or 2008

there real i know so been in the scene longer than most of you lol and yes they are owned some but sold them and they are a single bearing wheel but backless mike still makes some every once in a while so there not rare nor should the guy sell them high. but mike mostly sells them to us ffi'ers.

bizzywell could you post pictures also this is kind of off topic but has any of you guys bought something from appleyard14 because i did and it has been not to long but it still seems to long just from canada for california so has anyone ordered from him to prove i wasnt scammed

grant they were completely back less he made them before brt came out and they discontinued then cause they wobbled horribly

oh didnt the g6p or something like that get discontinued to because they crack

idk bout the ps but the ys got discontinued cause they were to soft

i agree.if you improve somthing you dont continue to old ones ?

well i thought there woulld have been some major reasons to discontinue like cracking because they still have g4's but i guess they were discontinued and so many people wanted them i think

apples is as legit as they come. no worries their. Canada post is slooooooooooooooow.

grant. those are brr ed 'a's you plum

and ive heard of the g6.5s......

they have been called g6.5's because the shape is like the .1's :x

wheres the logic in that?

they are not though are they? the shape is similar yes....but they are different sizes for starters.....

they are brr ed? no?

the 6.5 are exactly like g7 but with only one bearing

i like pomegrantes
