TGM Bigfoot Freeride Longboard Wheels 65MM 78A Islanders Cruiser

The Islander Cruiser Wheels, measuring 65mm in diameter and 45mm in width, offer a versatile riding experience. With a contact patch of 41mm and a 78a durometer, these wheels feature a smooth surface and a slightly rounded inner edge, providing both grip and slide-ability.

Equipped with ABEC 9 bearings, the Islander wheels are designed for exceptional performance. The balls run in deep-groove raceways and are retained by a self-lubricating Delrin crown. A low-viscosity synthetic oil has been added to the bearings, ensuring a smooth and efficient spin while minimizing friction levels.

The 65mm size of the Islander wheels makes them suitable for a wide range of longboards, with most setups able to accommodate them without issues of wheel bite. The 78a hardness provides a balance of grip and slide, allowing for both high-speed stability and the ability to break free for sliding maneuvers.

As a result of their smaller diameter, the Islander wheels are easier to break free for sliding, making them an excellent choice for free-ride enthusiasts. The center-set core design allows riders to flip and rotate the wheels, encouraging even wear and preventing the dreaded "coning" effect.

In terms of ride quality, the 78a Super High Rebound (SHR) hardness of the Islander wheels ensures a smooth and responsive experience on both smooth and rough terrain. The soft, yet responsive, nature of the wheels provides a good amount of grip, roll, and slide-ability, catering to a wide range of riding styles and preferences.

The Islander wheels are available in a variety of colorways, allowing riders to personalize their setups and express their individual style. Whether you choose to stick with a single color or mix and match different sets, these wheels will have you riding in style.

In summary, the Islander Cruiser Wheels offer a versatile and performance-driven riding experience. With their 65mm diameter, 78a durometer, and ABEC 9 bearings, these wheels deliver a smooth, slide-friendly ride that can accommodate a variety of longboard setups. The range of color options and the center-set core design further enhance the appeal of the Islander wheels, making them a compelling choice for both seasoned riders and those new to the longboard scene.
