Caliber III Trucks 10″ 50° Raked Black

Caliber truck co's new model is finally here!
Really nice trucks from Caliber for cruising or tougher freeride. Caliber III are just as nice as they look and you can get a fantastically nice setup with them. Caliber stands for nice feel and high quality. If you thought they had nice version II then this is simply a truck that has improved feel and more possibilities than ever before.

Play with Venom's lovely specially designed plug-bushings which provides minimal slop. These plug bushings work as a precision bushing where this comes with a small elevation that fits perfectly into your trucks. In addition, the truck has now also been upgraded with a pivot cup in urethane instead of the plastic commonly used by most of the trucks on the market. This provides a better and more reliable response in the ride.

Rake

Caliber's new trucks are available in both standard and rake versions.

Choosing positive or negative rake is as simple as flipping the hanger if you buy the raked versions. If you look at the pictures you will see that the hanger is slightly angled so you can unscrew it and flip it to get new features on the same truck.

You can use the rake on the truck to give the truck a positive (standard) or negative rake which gives you different characteristics on the same truck! Positive rake gives you deeper turns for a great flow in cruising while negative rake gives you a lower more stable riding experience! Perfect if you want to increase your speed in your freeride and want to be able to get a more direct response in sliding.

Flipping your hanger does not affect the truck angle in this case, but only gives you different characteristics and feel in the ride as described above.
