Aslong as you're not riding really fast and end up make really tight turn because they do slide, either way great wheels to cruise

First, if you're just cruising, especially on a pintail, you don't want super reds. They're overpriced and you won't get going fast enough for them to be worth the money. I like zealous bearings, they last forever, they roll pretty well once you break them in, anf unlike Bones they're damn near water proof. Second these wheels are ok. Just ok. You get what you pay for with wheels and you're not paying much here. For cruising they'll be fine. Just know if you try to take a tight turn they have a tendency to slip out. And if you slide on them they'll skitter, or try to grip, or just act like they're made of ice. You never know, they're quite unpredictable. Also don't get a pintail. Yeah they look gorgeous, which is fine if that's what you like so go with it if you want (I'm just some guy on the Internet) but they're useless for anything besides cruising.

they are great beginner wheels. I've been writing for the past year with them. Oh, and don't bother with super reds. Just get some mini logos, they are made by the same company and they are cheaper and just as good.

yes I think so, they are very tight in my dropouts. I would pass on these wheels and spend a couple more bucks on a decent set, I had to work on these right out of the box.. they suck

The kenda tires are good i would def. Buy another set ive had them about a year they get a little choppy but rotation is key. Great tire.

Hey Will, just wondering if you bought this bike and successfully put 32's on the bike? I just saw my friends tires and 23's are way too skinny! Not to mention I'd bet you'd feel EVERY piece of dirt. I'd like to know before I commit.

I guess so, because I have a lot of friends longboarders that use those big wheels. And they use this same bearings, and they told me that these bearings last a lot even more than mines cause I use 53mm Bones Wheels cause I'm skateboarder. :)

I use Orangtang wheels and thwy ride really smooth. Theres diffrent tupes of wheels depending on what you want them for. Overal they're fantastic long lasting wheels.

I first started with a bearings upgrade, which totally changed the feel of the board, then I threw on a set of Gullwing Sidewinder II Trucks, I don't recommend those trucks in particular due to having two kingpins, and the board has a big disadvantage with wheelbite with these trucks, and a bit of speed wobbles. I suggest a set of Paris' or something of the like.First, I'd start with bearings, and just work from there:)

For beginners and those who are on a budget,for sure. This is my first board and I have no complaints but I have ridden other boards that are much more smooth and carve a lot better I.e landyatchz and pintail boards.

They do come built with Shimano Tiagra Hubs. I'd assume by machine but I really don't know. I was able to ride on them for about a two weeks before they needed to be trued. They're definitely worth the money. Great wheels, I recommend them highly.

The wheels are pretty good. I haven't had any issues with them. To me, they seem quite sturdy.

Mine actually came with blue wheels and was ordered from BC Surf & Sport but have to say, I like them better than the lime green. Overall amazing board as well!!

what may want to consider is the size of the wheels, and the stiffness of the pivot bushing. i usually run 50-52 mm wheels and i like the pivot kinda tight so its not to wobbly and the wheels dont bite the board in corners

yes, but as I mentioned they are hard wheels, meaning they are not of the soft variety that roll over cracks and rocks well. The board is great. I put softer wheels on it so it would be smoother for my son. Still, it is a great to learn on if you find a smoother surface, or are a pretty good rider already. Soft wheels durometer 78 (cruising) , trick wheels durometer 90-100. these are prolly durometer 99.

They should definitely roll straight and have a smooth motion. Check to see if you can tighten the wheel nuts after removing the end caps. If you can't, I would return them.

I don't have cyclocross experience, but these wheels feel just as strong as my other sets (mavic and shimano) and they have gone well in some filthy/rainy rides with no issues with sand and dirt getting into the bearings. For the money, I'd give them a try for cyclocross.

Yes, I live in washington and cruze the waterfront in the summer time. Wheels were super loose but it rides really smooth. Best board iv rode hands down
