Bomb Hills with Bombers Review by Dylan

Rating

I bought some soft 73a durometer wheels for bombing hills a while ago. I really wanted to get wheels that I could do a street trick into a hill bomb like them gx1000 dudes do in San Francisco. Treflipped, caught it primo, and a third of my soft wheel flew off. This was after about a week of riding. I'm in West Virginia and the freeze thaw cycle is hard on the asphalt. These bombers are hard enough to withstand doing street tricks, yet soft enough to go over large cracks and small rocks. I've been treflippin into hill bombs all day after purchasing these.

Crazy smooth ride Review by Jim

Rating

Here in the Ohio Valley with our pothole and gravel covered roads and cracked sidewalks, they provide a crazy smooth ride. Last I checked, still made in the USA like a lot of Powell products. I do wish they clearly listed where products are made. Maybe most people don’t care anymore but I do and I’m so much more likely to purchase something if it has a MADE IN USA listed or stamped on it.

Flaky Image Review by Philip

Rating

I bought the 64mm green bombers that I'm not finding anymore. Given they're the same brand and image, this review should still hold. I found that within the first two months the paint on the side of the wheels started flaking off, so if the image alone is what you're getting these for, look elsewhere. Regarding what probably really matters, performance, the 64s ride smoothly over the cracks and bumps that my 52s got stuck on, and they're durable riding over the rough asphalt that would hurt feet. This durability sacrifices some smoothness, as the durometer is 85. (Posted on 5/8/2017)
