Description:
Caliber continues to improve its already awesome trucks, with the Caliber II Trucks. Caliber updated a ton of features for the Caliber II’s and we think you deserve to get nutty about it.
First, they enhanced the inner-step to give you an increased contact area with the bushing, which gives you higher rebound and responsiveness. The outer-step is now a perfect circle for a no-slop fit with any bushings. They also increased the pivot cup surface area contact with the baseplate for a snugger fit for the pivot pin. Caliber even matched the kingpin diameter of their precision trucks for a consistent lean and proper clearance.
To top it all off, Caliber created a new in-house treatment process to strengthen each truck by as much as 40%. Combined with the reinforced baseplate and the pressed-in kingpin, you get all the strength you want without sacrificing control and response.
Includes Blood Orange Ultra High Rebound Bushings 89a

Great Trucks
Trucks have an awesome build quality and are awesome, i fully suggest getting them but you may also need new bushings considering the stock ones suck.

Progress on an already amazing Truck
Caliber Trucks seem to be the freeride standard these days and Cal 2s are a great step forward for the brand. I skated a pair of 44 cals for a long time before the release of these new trucks and the modifications were everything I could have asked for. With the new kingpin hole opened up, the restriction in the bottom of your carve is reduced and the new bushing seat is perfectly snug. With the precision stepped bushing seat bushings like eliminators and barricles fit perfectly while barrels are a snug fit still.
As for the ride, these trucks are now a lot more smooth turning because of their less restrictive components and the Cal 2s are a good middle between paris/randals and calibers. (although still closer to the old cals) The low ride on the 44's makes kickout very easy and the lower angle makes slides stable and easy to hold out. The slop on these trucks is really reduced because of the solid kingpin and the new pivot seems to help reduce slop as well. The upgrades to this truck did a lot for the ride and it definitely didn't go unnoticed.
I was considering precision trucks at one point but I feel so comfortable on these trucks that I have decided to stick with Caliber for the time being. With some aftermarket bushings and precision Amish Washers these trucks feel absolutely perfect. I definitely have no complaints about these trucks, anyone looking to get into freeride should start here first.

PEEL. STICK. ART.
This month, all orders over $19.95 get the newest sticker of the month. When robots take over the world, it will surely be more or less like when humans did: Some will be jerks, some will gather all the power, and some will just want to shred. Ted Cocuzza envisions a world where robots still have the freedom to throw a steezy layback grind on a DIY spot when they feel the need.
As always, every order will come with two free classic Daddies stickers at no cost. We know... we're sweet.
SPREAD THE WORD!
