Mine was ok all the way until this morning where it chunked but probably due to the route that I took today has a section where there’s plenty of loose gravel
Yea that’s the downside of the blue cags, too soft…

It is rounded off at the edge… not as rounded as the neohub wheels but they are definitely chamfered off
It’s not the softness but the happy thane formula - not perfected enough. Everyone has moved onto the unchunkable TB110 74As and those are way softer than Caguama wheels.
I’ve sold off my brand new cags after realizing 85mm dia is too small. And the guy i sold it to already had blue cags, but wanted a backup set because he knew their inherent chunk-a-lot issues
Yes is done by CNC lathe not in mould. Because is cut at edge is make weaker.
I’m so so close to getting it lol but the shipping and the price itself is crazy for me to ship it back to Malaysia
Another rider in my group had gotten his hands on a set and man they do look really really nice
This HAS to go here :
Wow that looks awesome.
Hot glue and multiple stage dyes i assume? I’d like to give this a shot
Think it’s inherent? As in must cast your own wheels?
Nah, looks more like its dyed with already cast white wheels. The hot glue sprayed on top prevents dye from penetrating, and just have to repeat that if you plan to dye with multiple colors, that’s my guess
Noyce, blue semen!
Has anyone used the 85mm Caguama and 80mm Kegel on their board before?
Does the 5mm makes a huge difference in terms of ride quality?
Every bit of extra clearance makes a difference when you don’t have much of it. 85 is already pretty small, imo.
As far as actual ride quality, it’s a toss up between the two if they are the same duro.
Don’t do it! If you’re happy with your blue cags, these will be worse. Look towards these
Which I’ll have to consider if I can never get my Revel 74As again.
just got the pepes, love them.
Doing the longest manuals I ever have, walked my dog like 10 miles this week
possibly unrelated but i like em and torque going back down to 90mm will be great. Kinda going for max torque, maybe the smol Boa’s would be a good choice for that.
I’m currently riding the 90mm boosted clones with supposedly have a softer duro and wider contact patch than the 90mm boas. Nothing really to complain about except if I’m nitpicking I wish they had rounded edges as I can feel the hard edge catch on street paint sometimes.
That’s true, I’ve ridden bigger thane wheels and the clearance is something I concern about don’t have the best road here
The problem with trying other wheels is always the shipping…shipping is almost more expensive than the wheels itself
Used that wheels for the longest time on my Foosted, never had it chipped and chunk which is very surprising for me If my blue cags chunk more then I will probably go back to the 90mm boosted clones as that is the best deal on wheels I can get
80mm kegels love to “stick” to the road, so on bad roads you really feel the vibrations. Caguamas “glide across”, so definitely feel better. Only go for the kegels if you need that grip on tight turns / have good roads and want a lighter wheel.
Anyone actually used the 97mm Lazy Rolling glow wheels? I have a set and 97mm might make more sense than 107 ABEC for lowride and no wheelbite on a deck which would not be suitable for big bouncies.
I searched like a mofo but cannot determine whether to Xenophobically cock s snoot at the thane origin or feel because there is nothing out there besides they look cool. My guess is China thane and meh feel I think I saw a fairly unused set up for sale by @Lee_Wright but not sure the review mentioned feel, Lee?
I mean, I watched a video of someone from LR take a tyre iron to the glow coating…ok thats moderately interesting and somewhat related to paint drying but more importantly are my teeth going to rattle out?
Am I going to see the board sail off into the sunset if the ground is wet?
These are the burning questions, where are the answers?
