New Build Kit Board 150mm Flat Profile Tires

any issues riding with these tires on the Hubba hubs?

I havenā€™t had any issues personally besides the carving being too rough. But tire talc has taken care of that. From certain angles it definitely looks too stretched, but from other angles it looks fine. There might be some wobbliness going on, but it might just be road conditions and I still havenā€™t balanced them.

What sort of speeds do you notice the wobbling/ vibrations at?

Probably starting in the 20s, canā€™t say for sure, but my board can only get up to 30 mph max.

I suspect balancing will help quite a bit.

Alright tire talc didnā€™t save my tube. Itā€™s always the back tires. Maybe its the Hubba-hubs and being too stretched. Going to move to BN GT3s and see how that goes.

BKBs on @Boardnamics GT3s. It feels pretty good on these hubs.

@BuildKitBoards do we have an update for tube replacements?

In general or if your valve stem tears? If the latter, I believe you just reach out directly via e-mail.

use email, they have a real customer support system with inquiry numbers and tracking, your question will not be lost in a forum.

I love the tires, the tubes have issues

Yup theyā€™re bad. Send them an email for new ones. I hope they upgraded the tubes they use

What are we thinking is a good source for tubes? Backfire Boards 4 pack for $15?
