I’ll get it off my chest here… I resent all these skinny motherfuckers and the awesome performance they get off their boards…
I never thought about that, I just realized maybe one duro that is hard to a light guy feels soft to a heavy guy. Also I wonder how those clouds would feel if it was less than 78A. Too soft maybe?
I would buy softer ones immediately… Why can’t they all be blue Caguamas…
I wish they would make a version that looks like regular thane wheels. But then I wonder if the round profile is what contributes to some of the vibration dampening
I do think the profile and the nubs make for a whole different vibe.
What you may be looking for is the TB Arctic blues.
They are still new to me so as of today in still like the foamies better.
But the TB are pretty squishy…
The TBs bug me on an emotional level because they use kegel core, and both the word kegel and the fact that I have an entire bin of abec pulleys but 0 of those makes me hate them completely irrationally.
If not for those reasons I would have a set already.
Oh see. You also have the opportunity to drop some cash on those beautiful 3d servisas pulleys… Which I wish they would freaking ship already…
I was to be @DEEIF ‘s weight. He got insane range riding my 12s3p build. I’m way too fat for 3p
Are the cloud wheels lighter than than the 100mm+ wheels?
Hehe…, 18miles and only used 25 percent
almost same weight as 107s. lighter than 110s
check out the adapter that does both at the same time - genius masterstroke.
So, an unfortunate development with my Foamies. I’ve been having weird intermittent stutters on my right rear wheel. After eliminating all possibilities at the wheel (belt too tight, wheel hitting belt, etc…), I’m thinking vesc issue. Turns out the foam core has shifted inside the wheel.
I’ll add photos/video later.
Edit: This is inaccurate as later discovered. DOH!
Damn, i just literally two hours ago bought a set
I think more of a freak occurrence, so I wouldn’t worry. I plan to buy again. These get ridden hard by faster guys, and I haven’t heard of this happening before. I got these locally slightly used, so no recourse for a return.
Ah thanks! How is the grip on these btw? I assume since they are raised in the center they need to wear a bit before you get some grip?
I got them with I believe 50km on them, so never had them virgin. Never had any issues with grip and found them to be a great wheel. You’ll be pleased.
you get WORSE range with the TB wheels?? (blue or black?)
I read that these slightly decrease the range (due to the soft foam core), but this is the first I heard of a regular thane wheel having worse range :o
I assumed he meant the TB 160mm.
Yeah. We were talking the TB 160mm AT wheels that basically cuts our range in half with our dad bods on it.
