MINI Spring Truck Hangers are used in BOTH the STREET Carver Trucks & the amazing URBAN Carver Trucks. The only difference between the Street & Urban Carver Trucks is the direction of the hanger, by turning the hanger around during assembly allow's the different style of Truck...  Axle forwards for Urban, backwards for Street.

We turn the Hanger around because the axle position is not centrally located in the Hanger and so by facing the axle forwards away from the toe's,  extends the wheel base whilst at the same time lowers the ride height of the deck (You have to remember the truck is mounted at a 35º), making the resulting Truck & Deck combination wheel base more suitable for mounting a larger wheel, HENCE why the URBAN CARVER Truck uses the 7 inch pneumatic wheels.

Equally, Where as when the hanger is reversed & the Axle is facing towards the riders toe's, the wheel base is shortened & of course the deck height is subsequently raised slightly, co-incidentally to a perfect height to fit much smaller style of wheel & you guessed hence why the Street Carver Deck uses the 83mm or 90mm Longboard wheels.... :-)

The Mini VERTIGO Hanger measures 12.5 Inches in total width & it fits to all TRAMPA Spring Truck Baseplates. Being narrower in the body & fitted with shorter axles than regular ATB Hangers means the overall steering characteristics are completely different. The Hanger is drilled with 2 spring mounting positions & by changing the spring positions in the truck & by adding/removing the DAMPA's into/from the springs means the Mini VERTIGO Hanger has a broad range of controllable steering which can be used for many different applications from Carvie Street to high speed Dirt Riding.

We have just released a full range of STREET CARVER BOARDS which all use the Mini Hangers. & amongst other applications the Mini Hangers will be used to make a Kids "Spring Truck" Mountainboard which will bring massive riding advantages to the younger/smaller riders...

The hanger body is made from FORGED ALUMINUM and comes as one solid piece. The Mini VERTIGO Hanger is a slimmed down version of the Mini INFINITY Hanger. We use the CNC machine to accurately drill the Kingpin Holes and to cut out the bulk of the cast material whilst still retaining the majority of its strength. This CNC work is expensive but seriously reduces weight.  The Hanger is fitted with 9.525mm (10mm) SOLID STEEL Axles. The Axles have also been HEAT TREATED. Heat treating steel makes it substantially stronger & more resistant to impact. Ensuring the Kingpin Holes are accurately placed guarantee's the best performance to the rider as well as making the truck easy to assembly & service. The Mini VERTIGO Hanger is BLACK ANODISED for metal protection & colour coordinating good looks before the CNC work is carried out.

The Mini Vertigo hanger measures 13 Inches in total width. When the wheels are fitted to the Hanger, the board has a center wheel width of 11 Inches.

Setting the springs to the inside position and riding with no DAMPA's makes the Truck turn very fast and suitable for CARVE BOARD style riding, where as, placing the springs in the outside position and adding the TRAMPA DAMPA's makes the steering very stiff and suitable for fast LONG BOARD riding.

TRAMPA's Mini INFINITY Hanger uses 2x 9.55mm x 10mm SPACERS (1 either Axle) to position the wheels accurately. The spacer slips onto the axles, leaving the perfect space to mount the TRAMPA wheels accurately. Use the 7/16ths of an inch Axle Nuts to lock the wheels into place on the axle.

Kingpin bushings push into the Kingpin holes, in both the Hanger & the Baseplate. When all the bushings are in position, push the Baseplate over the Hanger and into position so that all the Kingpin holes line up. When this is the case you will be able to push the kingpin, from the front to the truck to the back, through the holes in the assembly, connecting them all together. Remember to add the washer onto the kingpin before sliding into the assembly.

To finish off the beautiful product, Marine Grade Stainless steel GRUB SCREWS help keep the Axles locked into the correct place within the Hanger.
