The Riptide WFB Tall Barrel Bushings are for use in trucks that require/accommodate Tall Bushings (such as Ronin, Bear Kodiak, Arsenal). Tall Barrels offer the next step up in stability above the Tall Cones!
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 medium durometer bushing range and are for are for light-weight (under 75lbs) riders and those looking for a loose setup in the roadside position. Please keep in mind, that WFB bushings ride a couple of points softer than they test.
This WFB compound has a unique lubrication added that does not bond with the urethane which is why you will often see a white residue 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.
