A beginners guide to wheels for 2 in 1 boards. In this video I take a look at 5 different wheels. This video has been in the making for a while and is fairly dated already since the madwheelz are now using a v2 model, compared to the v1s used in this video.

had the same issue with my ingens, ordered purple but they were more lavender. For people worried about comfort id recommend a flexy street board like my meepo voyager. The ingens paired with the bamboo deck is great, and makes mad wheels feel like over kill.

Great vid. I'm running a zealot x so no pneumatics for me but I do have the backfire 120s, both mad wheels and the ingens as well as some others. Ironically my favorites are the ingens because they're the closest to a skateboard feel but I can't use them everywhere because the streets get like that gravel patch sometimes. In a wierd way the mad wheels are the least thrilling because they're SOOO good at their job. You never feel challenged or like you have to control the board at high speeds because the wheels just say "I gotchu". You'd damn near need to see a moat sized hole before you have to actually consider avoiding it.

Yeah I know what you mean, I could feel the ingens breaking traction all the time, whereas the madwheelz just stayed glued to the pavement.

Nice round up ⚡👌🏼👌🏼⚡ *I've got blue cags, my favourites and last year picked up Dad Bods, Boa's newesr 90mm and eBoardStuff Ingens,* the only ones I didn't like were the Dad Bods, everyone else loves them it seems but Ingens and even Boa's 90mm, smaller than the Dad Bods, feel nicer. That huge core on the Dad Bods is the reason. Mad Wheels and Ingens are the best so far in the 100mm category, at least for me.

I would love to try going smaller than 100mm, but sadly I think it would be rough given the roads I have to work with.

@@chargencarvegive em a try. the roads on your videos look pretty nice. the paths that have somewhat bad concrete and make the board vibrate is only temporary.. The balrog is a nice flex too..When you use all terrain wheels and cloudwheels for so long, it will feel uncomfortable for a while. but if u keep at it, u will learn do adapt, breeze right past temporary vibrations and find smaller wheels like orangatangs and boas have a much more in tune feeling along with a very good quality urethane. having 20-30% more range and power is also great 👍🏼 💯✔️✔️✅🤘🏼🤘🏼

I ride cloudwheels on my Backfire Zealot. The contact area of the wheel is low which allows for a little slippage. At the 500 mile marker, the rear wheels are balding, which actually helps with traction. The carving is awesome, the ride is super smooth, but that could be my soft bottom bushing smoothing out the vibration. I’ve never tried inflatable as I feel a flat. Roadside tire repair is no fun. The size of the wheel rolls over almost everything… almost. When I reach 1000 miles, I’m buying a propel pivot with the new style cloudwheels.

Feeling like I want to give mads a try now, everyone seems to like them.

They are quite magical.

Love the mads. I carved so much and so hard in santa cruz that the wheel started to delaminate from the core. Was sent a new wheel and definitely still bought the v2s!

Good job dude. Mads are also my go to when im not on my 150mm bkb’s.

Do you know if the Mad v2's are compatible with the backfire zealot x? Heard some people say they had the belts rub against the wheel. Thanks!

@chargencarve Ай бұрын

I cant speak specifically for the zealot x, but just looking at the belt drive area for it, it looks like those belt guards would interfere with a larger wheel. So it would probably work if you removed the belt guards.

@plasmaferrari3690 Ай бұрын

@@chargencarve Thanks for the response! The belt covers actually have a part you can cut to fit bigger wheels! Id cut that if using the mad wheels.
