[WTBUSA] 5.5 or 6 inch pneumatic wheels

Preferably Evolve compatible or sold with wheel gears 50t or less…

5" wheels are not a thing here, just a myth. Best you can do is 120/125mm thane/rubber/airless or 145mm pneumatic

Lol it was a shot in the dark. Thanks. What rubber wheels get the best range and versatility outside pneumatics?

Rubber in general has no benefits if it’s not in an air compressed setup. The range drop is higher compared to urethane whether or not you make it urethane-wheel-shaped or tyre shaped.
In short, just get a regular pneumatic or airless one, there isn’t much better out there

We might be working on something… :eyes:

Rubber wheels are in general between PU and pneumatics comfortwise.
The watt consumption is more than urethane but less than air filled tires as well. The grip is also between those two. So I think there is a use case for airless rubber tires. You can get them in 5" for example from here: https://eovanboard.com/product/electric-skateboard-wheels/

Do they use the same 5x1 tubes as Bergs? A solid distributor for those would be spectacular

no.[quote=“ZachTetra, post:9, topic:44683”]
