Riptide WFB Cone Bushings Canada Online Sales Vancouver Pickup WFB Barrel Bushings Canada Online Sales Vancouver PickupRiptide Bushings Canada Online Sales Vancouver PickupThe Riptide WFB Cone Bushings are the most commonly used bushings for use in standard trucks such as Atlas, Bear and Caliber, etc!

Riptide’s cone shape has the lowest resistance and stability of all the shapes addressed on this page and can allow your trucks to easily achieve their full lean and turn without loosing the feel of the truck.

The Cone/Cone setup is for those looking for a very carvy or surfy feel. With this choice, the further you lean, the less resistance there is. The Cone/Barrel setup is for those looking for a carvy or surfy feel but with a bit more stability.  With this choice the resistance is constant throughout the range of motion.

This bushing registers within the very hard durometer bushing range and are for are for heavy-weight (140lbs – 170lbs) riders and for those looking for a tight. Please keep in mind, that WFB bushings ride a couple of points softer than they test.

WFB FORMULA:

The WFB Formula will feature a white powder residue on the surface, which is a good thing and is expected. This unique lubrication added that does not bond with the urethane. Photographed products had been washed beforehand, so do not worry if your product arrives with a white powder on the surface.

This compound offers reduced bushing friction for fast transitions and a deeper lean than the APS. WFB will turn 15% to 20% more than the same durometer of other brands. WFB also offers lower rebound than APS and is designed for the rider that wants a very fluid response.

Truly the bushing of choice for the more experienced rider that wants to control their bushings instead of the bushings controlling them.

Like APS, the WFB compound does not change much when you tighten the kingpin nut past snug. We recommend tightening to the point where it is difficult to turn the bushing in the bushing seat by hand.

RipTide + CalStreets Bushings Pivot Cups Canada Pickup Vancouver RipTide's all about designing and developing the sickest gear out there, no doubt. When you're searching for the perfect bushing, you gotta focus on three things: how you ride, the shape of the bushing, and the durometer. The durometer of a bushing is what determines whether it's hard or soft. And that's what's gonna give you that sweet lean you're looking for. But when you're picking out the right durometer, you gotta consider two things: your riding style and your weight. If you're all about bombing hills, you're gonna want a harder bushing for max stability. But if you're more into freeriding, a softer bushing's gonna be your jam. And don't forget about your weight, either. If you're a featherweight, go for a soft bushing. If you're packing some pounds, you'll wanna go harder.
