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
Why is the kingpin so short?
These trucks ship with a pressed in kingpin which is just barely to short to use double barrel venom bushings.
This is alluded to in the Caliber description when they say "[w]e have removed all slop and play by switching to a pressed-in kingpin. This provides maximum control and responsiveness through corners, but can still be hammered out and replaced with different length removable kingpins for extra levels of customization."
However, if they had just shipped with a 2.75" kingpin instead of a 2.5" kingpin they would have saved you a trip to the hardware store and a frustrating afternoon.

Overall great trucks !
These were my first trucks and the stock bushings and how loose it was made my board feel unstable at low speed but get double barrel higher duro bushing and these trucks are a true masterpiece. I would recommend them to anyone looking for a fun setup thats also great at bombs. The 50 degree ones are a bit high for pushing on a flat top mount board. I'd suggest getting a mellow drop deck board. Unnoticeable except when you push. These trucks are very responsive. Would recommend to any good setup. And the hangers are reversible but stay at the same height and degree.

pretty nice
Have these set up on a cruising board so the demand on them isn't very high, but if you are nice to them, they will last. The stock bushings will be great unless you are looking into slalom which requires very precise bushings for every aspect about the rider. The carves are deep and I haven't had any problems with them so check them out.

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!
