Freezing wheels

[administrator]

So I have face wheels that I use for park. I put them in the freezer for about two weeks as I heard a rumor, that it makes them harder which can make them faster and since these wheels are already on the soft side I tried it. I think it makes a difference. But I also went from used wheels to new wheels so it's a bit hard to tell. Give it a try and see if it makes a difference to you.

wouldn't you get condensation on them making them slip like bastards? I would also think that might make them prone to chunking.

I heard that rumour about freezing as well but then I also heard that as Andy mentioned that they were prone to chunking. Let us know how the face wheels fair up over time as in theory they should be good :)

yeah all seems good so far. no condensation... I let them thaw before riding of course.
