For the love of sk8tan! (5 inch pnuemetics with abec or kegel core)

What kind of hubs would fit those

So I will still be able to use it with my Evolve trucks set up. How for the set

Right! An evolve direct bolt on with a larger belt.

@MoeStooge Iā€™m still for the 120mm wheels! Those 63mm are very appealing to me (Iā€™m more of a wide contact patch guy) but the 30% range reduction is a lot :thinking:. 50mm are more all around, no? 63mm are gripier? ā€¦aaaah but the price! :roll_eyes:

Iā€™m still thinking, still thinking (this decision is driving me nuts already :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye: )

Cheers Bro. (good luck in Vegas! Itā€™ll be an opener for ya) :grinning::metal:

@moon is that 3d print friendly? I wouldnā€™t mind printing it for science

Yeah it is, but I havenā€™t thought about anything when designing it. I need to take a look at it again at some point

EDIT

Example - the valve exit point (if thats the correct terminology)

I am just going to PM you

What do you mean?

Oh okay, can you put the exit hole in the middle of the rim? The other rims are great but getting tubes in and out always scares me
