The Riptide KranK Tall Barrel Bushings are designed for trucks requiring tall bushings such as Ronin, Bear Kodiak, Arsenals, etc!
Tall barrels offers the next step up in stability above Riptide’s Tall Cones and are often used for a broad range of skating disciplines depending on the skater’s skill level and personal preference.Â
Awesome as a double-barrel application, but amazingly changeable when paired with a Cone, Chubby or Fat Cone.
Depending on whether you’re searching to find a carvy, surfy feel (Tall Barrel/Tall Cone), one with more stability (Tall Barrel/Tall Fat Cone) or one that is great for flat-out speed (Tall Barrel/Tall Chubby).
This bushing registers within the very hard durometer bushing range and are for are for heavy-weight (200+ lbs) riders and for those looking for a tight. Please keep in mind, that KranK bushings ride a couple of points softer than they test.
KRANK FORMULA:
Riptide’s highest rebound formula to date, KranK is designed specifically to change under pressure and is controlled by the amount of clamp pressure you subject it to when tightening the kingpin nut! The effective range of control is from barely snug for the loosest feel to 2 full turns for the tightest feel. KranK will turn the same or less than the same durometer of other brands which is also a departure from APS and WFB. As for washers, flat washers work great with this compound, but for the greatest control and range of this performance feature, use cupped, precision flat or precision cupped washers.
