The Stubby Truck Hanger - MK1 - (Aka. Stubby) is designed for long distance skateboarding (and is ideal for pumping alongside other styles). It designed to be compatible with both the complete Stubby Truck (and fixed plates coming soon) and the DT (Dont Trip Skateboards) Poppy.
It is precision CNC machined out of 7075-T6 aluminium alloy (typically used in aerospace), and offers an enormous range of adjustable features that gives users versatility to truly set-up their trucks to personal preference:
- Adjust the axle offset: The Stubby truck hanger offers the ability to adjust the axle rake in 4 different positions, 2 raked positions and 2 rakeless positions, substantially changing the dynamic behaviour of the truck based on the defined mode; and ultimately the riding experience. (The rake offset is enormous at 14mm offering a truly unique riding experience.)
- Adjustable axle length: The axle length allows for a 4mm adjustment of the wheel position with the provision of a 4mm spacer (or combination of spacers with a maximum adjustment of 5mm).
- Interchangeable Spherical or Kore: The Hanger offers a simple push fit interface that enables an easy interchange between spherical bearing, or Riptide WFB Kore Bushings (Front Truck Configuration: 88a and Rear Truck Configuration: 93a).
The Hanger is supplied with two 8mm Axles and two M10 socket cap screws made from Grade 5 Titanium (6al-4v), steel counterpart M8 nuts, 4mm aluminium axle spacers, and is supplied with either a spherical bearing or Riptide Kore APS (88a or 93a).
Price: £130 + shipping cost.
(This first run is a limited run of 75 Hangers. Once this limit has been reached there will be the option to place a pre-orders for the proceeding run.)
