Recommendation / Application Area
The V3 165mm 50° are particularly suitable for longboards and cruisers with a narrower stance (under 9" deck width), if you are looking for a lively, direct steering feel and good control in turns. The 50° baseplate offers more responsiveness and is well suited for carving, tight turns and technical lines; in combination with a 43° truck on the other axle, various setups can be finely adjusted.
Maintenance & Notes
Regularly check and, if necessary, tighten kingpin nut and axle nuts.
Check bushing hardness and condition; replace worn pivot cups or kingpins.
Weight & dimensions are factory specifications; if unsure, check the distance to screws/holes on the deck (riser pads if necessary).
