Tunnel Products has added to their growing wheel
line-up - the Tunnel Krakatoa Wheel, a 70 mm center-set wheel designed
specifically for sliding and free-riding. Like all of our
high-quality, US made wheels, the Krakatoa is a collaboration of riders,
urethane experts, and the crew here at Tunnel.
The Krakatoa Wheels feature a pre-ground surface for immediate sliding capability, with no need to break the wheels in. The
high-grade urethane is formulated for controlled slides with a clean
hook-up and has a resiliency that allows for longer wheel life. The 70
mm Krakatoa Wheels are 44 mm wide with a 39 mm contact patch. Rounded on both sides, the wheels allow for better access to slides than more traditionally shaped wheels.
Art based on the world’s most famous volcano, the
island of Krakatoa which erupted in 1883, was supplied by ace rock
poster artist Jason Cooper, who has created works for bands like
Ministry, Rollins Band and Gwar |
