Dec has bought a new board so his will be nice and mine is like 8 years old! Im not too sure about the clearance im going to have on my board either... I reckon itll come to saturday and the wheels wont touch the floor!
and yes longboard wheels... what a joke! Theyre so expensive!
Cheers mate, Really like those trucks, had them in my parts bin for years waiting for something to use them on.
Theres a few kits on ebay with longboard wheels, trucks, ABEC7 bearings and a skate tool for £50 which aint a bad buy.
Ive gotta be honest I actually intend to get reasonable use out of mine so the better bearings could be good (currently on ABEC5).
The other joy with longboard wheels is that they have different compounds ranging form about 70-90 and they also have letters after the number. Ive had to work that sort of stuff out too.
