Hello,
I have recently bought the OG ripper (10X30) and I am having a difficult time trying to find a good setup. I did a bit of research on cruiser components and I believe everything I picked out should work. But I am fairly new to the cruiser scene and I would greatly appreciate it if someone with cruiser knowledge could give me some feedback on the components I picked out. My setup is-
Trucks- Paris V4 165mm
Risers- Mini logo 1/2 black risers
Silencers- Dooks Silencers pads 1/16
Wheels- 73mm blood orange alpines
Bearings- Bones race reds
Again information on how to improve my setup would be greatly appreciated!

IMO I'd run 60mm as tall skateboards are harder to push compared to low boards
and if you want to ollie up curbs in the future too
or visit skateparks
But it depends on whether you prefer a lower skateboard which provides ease of pushing
Everything is a trade off
Buy some standard indy’s and you will only have to use an 1/8” or 1/4” riser.
I thought the race reds where designed for longboarders who go 30+ mph?
Once my super reds die I’ll pickup some race reds. Sounds interesting not having to use washers. Do you tighten the nut down to the bearing or do you still leave some wiggle room?
