Do I have any options for pneumatics/airless wheels on caliber II trucks? Or do I need to get a new pair of trucks?

I use torqueboards all terrains on my caliber IIs, any non-trampa wheel will fit. bergs, trqbrds, 6shooters.

Yeah im pretty sure DKP trucks are 8mm so you should be good.

I think they are 10mm, but as long as I use 8mm bearings I should be good right? Also, what kinds of bearings goes into these types of wheels? Just standard ones like zealous?

Never used pneumatics before :sweat_smile:

Evolve DKPs are 10mm spun down to 8mm at the hub. It’s only 10mm where the pulley sits. You should be fine.

Evolve stuff is not my specialty, I’d ask someone else.

@BluPenguin saved me, thank you.

while bergmeisters and evolve wheels all do well on an 8mm axle, I’m concerned that caliber II’s don’t have enough axle length for the hub and pulley. maybe the offset six-shooter hubs would work. I don’t know though I haven’t tried

edit: listen to this guy :arrow_down:

You could use bergmeister’s on a standard axle with a bolt on pulley

Someone asked me this does anyone know the answer?

I have dickyho motor mounts, and I wanted to get belt tensioner. The issue is that dickyho is currently down. I have a bunch of extra skateboard bearings. They’re pretty simple, so I was wondering what I could get from home Depot to screw the tensioner in place?

@torqueboards why is there auto playing audio on your website that scares the f out of me, even though there is no video?

“Here we have the new 63… Motor” and then it cuts off.
