Pneumatic Wheel Compendium (Serious)


They’re a little shorter and definitely rounder than the qingda. I had to rotate them after about 200 miles, so I don’t expect to get much more than 500 miles total. That said, they are a lot more comfortable than qingda tires.

Nice! Thanks. If I drop my build down to 8inch, these look like a sweet option

I’m wondering the same thing about these tires that ali recommended me the other day. Pattern seem to be the same as Kaly tires and they do have some positive reviews.

Lol, they are the tires that the hellcats were made for after someone post an Amazon link to this tire and Ernesto made the hubs that fit.

@3DServisas, this is your destiny. The entrails have foretold of the hub that fits this tire.

Has anybody tried these “airles” “pneumatics”? :smiley:

They’ve been on there a few months. They shaft you on shipping tho

Ride feels like you took to much Benadryl

Exactly. But it’s just personal opinion.

Personally I feel that the race to the most car like esk8 wheel has the potential to spawn products that make your ride worse for the sake of aesthetics

I’ve ridden them on a buddies evolve carbon gt style clone.

Durable, no maintenance, no popped tube chance. “Practical” I’d say. Completed the assignment, C student.

It’s a stiffer ride, with less bump absorption. Stiffness didn’t come with extra precision or grip. Can’t say it properly exists on an imaginary spectrum between urethan to pneumatic tires.

Never ridden trampa gummies, but I bet gummies don’t feel like them.

put these on evolve hubs with a little 3d spacer as the ?welt? isn’t standard - i wouldn’t recommend trying to change the hubs. up to 25mph they seem good, above that and they will unseat and expand to fall off the hub if spun in free air though it may be because of fitment? gave them to a friend who is a snail and he loves the 0 maintenance and has gotten about 250 miles on them afaik without problems.

I normally prefer 200mm rubber but recently got these 175mm to see if it would solve an isse (didn’t) bit they are very good wearing, comfy and durable.

This is them at about 2 weeks, by comparison, the MBS roadies I had on prior I shredded in 2 weeks. I loved the grippy bastards… probably too much, but at 2 weeks, i just can’t justify them.

The supplier is the same one that manufacturers for Evolve. They went on with only 5g to balance, which is much better than I’ve been getting with other China brands. They also uave other sizes and white walls unbranded with Evolves logo, which is a bonus.

Anyway, shipping was shit (haggle them), but i ended up landing them for under $20aud each, which is ok… not great but decent.

Hi. I’m form the EU. Looking for tires and tubes that fit Torque Board hubs. 160mm max size because of Clarence issues. I can only find 150mm Hota on Aliexpress. I’m located in the EU, so shipping form USA doesn’t make sense for me. Looking for links or even explicate tire tips that are known to fit those hubs.

You’re not talking about the motorized hubs like a direct drive right?

So we have effectively 2 different hub sizes we use for pneumatics here:

  • Mbs, trampa, kaly, sunmate, infinity hub etc style wheels that have a ~100mm or 4" hub diameter

  • Bergmeister, six shooter, aliexpress/clever 6x2 style wheels that have a 71mm hub diameter

I have never seen Sunmate 6" / 150mm tires that fit the 71mm hub size before. All the ones I’ve seen are for the 100mm / 4" hub size.


6" Mboard wheels on Sunmate trampa clones on the left, 8" mbs tires on rockstar 2s on the right. I can swap tube and tire between the 2 hubs no problem.

We’re at a weird point where there are now 2 different sizes of 6" wheel for the aforementioned 2 different hub sizes. Can you measure the hub’s outer diameter?

I’m talking about these:

you can use pretty much any 6", 7", or 8" tire with those hubs. For reference, we usually refer to hubs of that bead diameter as 3.75" hubs.

You have a wide variety to choose from. BKB all terrain tires would be a good choice on those hubs.

Thank you. I do understand most of that. My problem is that I can’t find anything decent online.
It’s on me for phrasing the question like that. I should have just asked for the best source of 155-160x50mm tires and inner tubes. Shipping form China or Europe. Shipping from US is expensive AF.
