Bushings
Well chosen bushings can be the difference between a ride that feels 'just right' or 'just off'. There are basic guidelines to selecting bushings, but it will always come down to personal preference. Standard bushings that come with trucks are not necessarily the bushing for you.
If you want to experiment with bushings, we recommend that you select a duro based on your weight. From there you can start moving up or down in duro depending on how much stability or manoeuvrability you're looking for, also bearing in mind the shape of the bushing and the discipline your after.
Recommended Duro

Cones allow you to get the most roll out of your trucks. As a result, you will have less stability and a lot more turning ability if cruzing & carving is your thing. |
Barrels will give you the balance between stability and manoeuvrability. Fitting nicely in the seat of your truck , Barrels are perfect for an all-round setup. |
This bushing has more width and less hight offering more support and stability. Best suited for Downhill. |
Stepped Cones is the bridge between your cone and eliminator shaped bushing. Best suited for a Freeride setup when looking for more manoeuvrability at higher speeds. |
