blade Posted September 1, 2003 Report Posted September 1, 2003 Does anyone Know of any websites that sell Brand New Kheo Air-S Trucks in the UK??? Would they fit onto a Kheo Flyer deck without dilling extra holes??? Blade Quote
spooky Posted September 1, 2003 Report Posted September 1, 2003 Hi, Air-S trucks are standard SK8 style ones (used by all manufactures, ie Kheo, Scrub etc) Go here fro details (Accessories Page) www.atbshop.co.uk You will have to drill new holes, but that will not weaken the deck (use the current holes as a guide line to get the new ones Square) Hope that helps, Jon Quote
blade Posted September 1, 2003 Author Report Posted September 1, 2003 thanks for your help placing a order as we speak if anyone knows of any other shops, that would be great Blade Quote
wakeupandfly Posted September 1, 2003 Report Posted September 1, 2003 you will also need new wheels as the axle size on a channel (flyer) truck is larger than the axle size on a skate truck (air-s) you could buy new bearings but you will need to work out the exact specification, and if they are not a common size they could be very expensive... may be better selling the flyer and buying an air-s or trying to swap with someone?

spooky Posted September 2, 2003 Report Posted September 2, 2003 Hi, Yes you could buy different bearings, talk to Stu to see if he hass any (make sure you give hinm the right details of what age your Flyer is and how many spokes etc). If not just do what I did when I got some nice Primo Hubs and 9" Promo Striker tires, just shim out the bearings to fit teh new axel? Have fun, Jon Quote
DiDi Posted September 2, 2003 Report Posted September 2, 2003 so do all channel trucks fit all channel boards, regardless of make? and vise versa with skate style? and then all channel hubs fit all channel axles etc etc? i am probably making a complete ass outa myself but am thinking about putting together a board and just want to make sure.

wakeupandfly Posted September 2, 2003 Report Posted September 2, 2003 They should all fit, but it is worth checking before you buy! Tom Quote
windy Posted September 3, 2003 Report Posted September 3, 2003 the terra shock truck is a "skate style" truck ,but takes the standard channel truck size bearings. they are a bit more heavier than the average skate truck, but loads more sturdy and ive never had speed wobble with em. hi blade. try calling powerkiteshop. im sure they sell kheo trucks Quote
Guest zaxs Posted September 3, 2003 Report Posted September 3, 2003 I got a brand spanking new AIR - S deck to sell if ya interested? Never used and all nice and shiney. zaxs Quote
DiDi Posted September 3, 2003 Report Posted September 3, 2003 yeh they look rather nice but abit pricy to go on a first board. iv only got £100 2 spare. it looks like putting together my own board is gonna cost more than i thought . Quote
