Riptide 87A Krank Barrel Bushings (2Set)

Riched20 10.0.22621 Krank Barrel Bushings are sold as a pair or in two pairs with a sticker. No washers are included, but you can purchase optional washers to further customize your setup.

Bushing height: 0.6" - Bushing diameter: 0.98".

The Krank formula offers a lot of adaptability. You can tighten the kingpin nut by up to two full turns after securing it to harden or loosen the feel of the durometer. Note that the rounded edge typically faces the hanger of the skateboard truck and should fit snugly in the bushing seat. If there is any play, you can try flipping the bushing so that the sharper edge is against the hanger. This often resolves play in larger bushing seats.

Two barrels can be used together, or you can combine barrels with other shapes.

Don't hesitate to combine a softer durometer bushing in the road-side position (top) with a harder durometer in the board-side position (bottom). This can provide additional stability in the middle while still allowing for carving.

Very hard durometer bushings (96a) are typically for heavier riders or those seeking a very stiff setup. Hard durometer bushings (93a) are for riders of average weight and provide a tight setup with very little wobble. Medium durometer bushings (90a) are for medium-weight riders and those who prefer a slightly looser setup than the hard ones. Soft durometer bushings (87a) are for lighter riders and those looking for a loose setup. Very soft durometer bushings (84a) are intended for very light or young riders but are also suitable for those who prefer an even looser setup (slalom).
