Apex Boards - UK Storefront

IMO i think that weight plays less of a factor than it does with bushing selection on other trucks.

The ability to adjust the tension on the kingpin can add the additional resistance needed for larger riders.

Maybe I should decide this before I buy these beauties… but what bushing set up would you recommend for me? 185lbs and do a lot of trails that have sharp turns. MBS trucks could never handle them on orange.

BUT also want some decent stability going 25-30mph on the streets.

Maybe medium in the back/soft up front?

I have been riding softer up front but I have been very lacking in my bushing selection. Now have been giving a new duro and shape selection for the last few days that is the same all around. Seems to turn pretty well. @b264 I’m 90kg

I’d say you’re close to the mark there.

I think my recommendation would be that 90% of people should start with the medium. The exceptions to this would be soft if your super light and used to riding an evolve DKP. Or maybe hard at either rear or both if you plan to be doing serious tabletop style jumps.

great, thanks! I think I’ll just buy soft and medium when you guys launch that way I can play around with it.

I also will cry if you sell out before I can grab a pair. Fair warning.

I’ve been trying to get an RTX 3080 graphics card for months now and I can’t deal with any more sold out buttons :rofl:

No need to spam F5 for now.

The plan is to let you guys know the date and time they will on the site a few days in advance so that no one misses it when it goes live.

This is probably a stupid question but will these things mount to a comp 95?

Two turns more or less really does make a big difference.
People getting a medium bushing set shouldn’t worry that they can’t set them up more stiff. There is still a big range in adjustability in one bushing combo, just by adjusting the pressure on the bushings.

If you can’t decide which is the right bushing for you, start with the softer one.
I like running softer bushings compressed more than harder duros lose.

Le wild @Lee_Wright appears and is now stalking its prey, waiting for the right opportunity to mount it.

They have the standard old school mounting pattern that most longboard and mountainboards have bro so they will absolutely fit the comp 95, or any of the MBS mountainboards

Edit - they also have the new school pattern but that’s not really relevent to mountainboards

Awesome just wanted to double check

Oh yeah…

We made a bull bar kit too. :grin:

We know everyone likes strapping lights, GoPros, Christmas ornaments and gawd knows what else on the front of their boards so we wanted to offer you guys a lightweight and stylish option to do just that.

Made from premium 6061 T6 Aluminium and beautiful Carbon Fibre tubes; this kit weighs in at an impressive 270g, fits to our Apex Air trucks and we think looks absolutely fantastic.

These are in stock and will be able to be purchased with the trucks on launch.

should also fit the up and coming @moon Luna 350 RKP’s too but we need to double check with Moonface
