The TRAMPA's MAGURA HS-11 BRAKE system is an incredibly powerful braking system that is certain to slow you down or even stop you dead if you squeeze to hard! By mounting MAGURA's Hydraulic Brake calipers (mounted in reverse fashion to that of a bicycle) onto a TRAMPA Brake Hanger & by squeezing the hand help brake lever as you ride, the hydraulic fluid (MAGURA Blood) runs evenly through the system applying pressure through the BRAKE PADS onto the special made 5mm thick Aluminum BRAKE DISKS. The Brake Disks can be mounted to any of the 5 Spoke wheels that TRAMPA offers. This incredibly powerful brake system prevents the need to get down & power slide, your always in contgrol of your speed and when going to quick for comfort will trim your speed suitably to make it around a tight corner without stopping or stop you dead should you so require. This incredibly powerful braking system will allow you to ride in places you have only ever imagined before!
MAGURA are a famous German company who specialise in hydraulic braking systems for bicycles. The HS-11 Hydraulic Brakes are MAGURA's original Hydraulic braking system. MAGURA have over 30 years of testing with this equipment. The HS-11 setup is also well proven to be perfect for our Mountainboarding application - specially when modified to fit to the immense TRAMPA Brake Trucks & SUPERSTAR RIMS. Using some clever mounting holes that we make into the Brake Hanger to hold the Brake Caliper completely steady, a change of cable length is used between the 2 Calipers and by mounting the brake calipers in reverse (pushing out rather than pushing in) the MAGURA Brake system neatly fixes onto the TRAMPA Brake hanger, positioning the caliper in the perfect for the best braking application against the Superstar Wheel...
The TRAMPA INFINITY truck (So called because infinity is for ever) is the strongest SPRING TRUCK in the TRAMPA product range! To ensure the maximum strength possible the Hanger body is made from FORGED ALUMINUM. It is one solid piece! The INFINITY Hanger is fitted with 12mm SOLID STEEL Axles. The Solid Axles are HEAT TREATED. Heat treating steel makes it substantially stronger, more resistant to impact & less prone to rust. 12mm Solid Axles are without doubt the strongest Axles in the TRAMPA range. The Axles are first Glued & then Screwed with a Marine Grade Stainless Steel Grub Screw locking them in the perfect position to mount your wheel too. The Hanger is connected to an EXTRUDED & T6 HEAT TREATED Aluminum BASEPLATE & as it's name suggests the INFINITY HS-11 TRUCK is designed to last forever!!
Once the Hanger has had its Axles fitted it is sent away to the CNC factory to have the Kingpin holes & the MAGURA Brake / E-Drive mounting points precision milled. CNC milling guarantees precision work. It is imperative that all of these important holes are accurately positioned in order to ensure the best performance to the rider, as well as making the Truck easy to assemble & service. The workers modify the back of the hanger by milling a flat surface so that we can mount the Brakes or E-Drive equipment flush against. We then drill an extra hole & insert it with a thread so to be able to screw in a bolt & fix something into it. A small semi-circle "Cradle" is milled at the top of the Hanger, acting as an anchor, it eliminates movement normally associated to a single fixing point. We are able to fix the MAGURA Braking system or the NEW TRAMPA E-DRIVE system into this thread & cradle, making a very strong fix between the two. The HS11 Magura Braking System & the E-Drive system are both very powerful and they need a very strong mounting point for max performance.!
In order to give the "Two Tone Pimp Finish" the INFINITY Hanger is EDP painted MATT BLACK for metal protection & colour coordinating good looks before the CNC work is carried out. The INFINITY Brake Board / E-Drive Hanger measures 16 Inches in total width. When the wheels are fitted to the Hanger, the board has a "center wheel width" of 15 Inches.
Once back from the CNC factory the MAGURA HS11 Hydraulic Brake calipers are filled with MAGURA Brake fluid (MAGURA Brake Blood) before being then fitted to this Hanger! The Brakes come to you as a pre-assembled set, including BRAKE DISKS, SPACERS & specially made M4x52.5mm Countersunk BOLTS ready to fit the Brake Disks directly to your SUPERSTAR Wheels. The MAGURA Brake system is very powerful. It can be fitted to the front or the back of the board to suit your riding preference & will stop you faster than you have ever imagined before! It has transformed the riding experience for many riders, opening up what was previously un-ridable terrain into easily conquerable terrain.
The HS11 Hydraulic Brake System is designed to fit the 35° HS11 Brake Deck or the 35° HolyPro Deck without any modification needed at all. The HS11 Truck will also fit to any 35° TRAMPA Deck, but as the calipers take up a lot of space on the hanger, some modifications may be needed to be made to the deck, in order to create the space to house them to allow the deck to steer correctly.
M5 x 12mm Countersunk Allen-Key Bolt - Marine Grade Stainless steel with locking paste
Made from A4 Marine Grade Stainless Steel, all of the nuts, bolts & screws used in a TRAMPA board have proven to be up to the challenge of holding everything together. Using Marine Grade Stainless Steel also means these Bolts will never rust on you! They can cope with the harshest of weather conditions & will laugh in the face of sandy/salty beaches or muddy freeride tracks - which can turn other manufacturers’ nuts & bolts into corroded rusting wrecks!
Wherever possible, we dip all our bolts into BLUE THREAD LOCKING PASTE, to ensure an extra strong & secure fix between the nuts & bolts.
The head of this Bolt is COUNTERSUNK, meaning that when screwed into position it sits flush & neat with the surface its screwed into. Preventing bolts from standing proud eliminates the chance of anything getting "snagged or hung-up" should it get caught on something..

Internal Bearing support spacer used with 10mm O-RIng on 12mm axles - 12 x 16 x 16.5mm - LATHED
This special Spacer measures 12mm (id) x 16mm (od) x 16.5mm (long) & is known as a Bearing Support Spacer. This Bearing Support Spacer fits between the Bearings, along side the 10mm O-Ring when fitting Bearings into a TRAMPA hub when mounting the wheel onto 12mm Axles.
Over time, during the usage of your board, the bearings & spacers are put under a lot of force. Ultimately this force has to go somewhere... The Bearings use a Steel ring in their assembly where as the Bearing Support Spacers are made from Aluminum. Steel is much stronger than Aluminum & when forced against each the aluminum will loose out every time! This is what happens to your spacers between the bearings, the Bearings put force onto your spacers as a consequence over time the spacers shrink... With enough time its possible for an annoying rattle to start.... That's when you fit these 16.5mm spacers with the little 10mm O-Rings to prevent the rattles!! :-)
CUSTOM Spring Truck Baseplate - Extruded T6 Aluminum Anodised & CNC precision Milled
The INFINITY Baseplate will fit to all of the TRAMPA Spring Truck Hangers but is designed specifically to work in conjunction with the Mini Spring Hanger as it houses a NEW Dual Spring Adjuster position! When the Springs are moved to the new inside position, the new location allows the rider to turn the board very very easily, making it perfect for fast carve riding on all kinds of terrain. You can see the new & growing TRAMPA STREET CARVER range of products here...
The INFINITY Baseplate is, as its name suggests, designed & built to last forever! Aircraft grade 6061 Aluminum is forced through a Die to create our re-enforced extruded profile. Extruding Aluminum ensures consistent high quality strength. Once Extruded the Baseplate is T6 Heat Treated. Heat treating extruded aluminum fuses the molecules even closer together making it as strong as possible, enabling the INFINITY Baseplate to easily cope with the extreme stresses of all types of off road boarding.
Once Heat Treated, the profile has its fixing holes punched into position & then its Bead Polished in preparation to be Anodised Silver. Once the colour has dried, the Baseplate is then returned to the factory for the precision CNC Machine to accurately mill the Kingpin holes, giving the exact precision required for constructing the Truck.

Custom Kingpin for Spring Trucks - M8x80mm Nikle Plated, Stainless Steel or TITANIUM
This 'M8 x 80mm Spring Truck Kingpin' is used to connect the Hanger & the Baseplate on any of TRAMPA's Spring Trucks.
Using high quality metals & sizing down to a 8mm Kingpin, we have managed to save loads of weight whilst retaining all the strength necessary for the job!
This M8 x 80mm Kingpin uses an 8mm Washer to support the busing from the outside & a 6mm washer to protect the bushing on the inside side & connects into an M6 Nut. You'll need a 4mm Allen key to hold the Kingpin & a 10mm spanner to tighten/loosen your M6 Kingpin Nut.
This Kingpin pushes through plastic bushings before being placed into position in the Truck System. The Plastic bushings allow the metal parts (Hanger & Baseplate) to move freely inside each other without allowing the metal parts to touch or wear out.
The plastic bushings will wear out over time & use & will eventually perish & need replacing. SO, make sure your Bushings are always in good working order after riding riding or when upgrading your Kingpin, it might be time to replace them too due to the unavoidable wear & tear of moving mountainboard parts.
King Pin Bushings have different thickness bases & fit into all Spring Trucks
The 2mm Kingpin Bushings are pushed into the holes of the SAVAGE Hanger & sit tightly in position. They hold the Kingpin in a wear-free position between the moving metal parts of the SAVAGE hanger & Baseplate.
The Bushings allow the movement (steering) without wearing out the metal parts.
The Kingpin bushings are a small perishable item. They are subjected to a lot of forces & stress, although they are now supported by a 2mm Kingpin Bushing re-enforcement ring, through regular abuse they will ultimately wear out & eventually need replacing.
Depending on what surface you are riding on & the nature of your riding style will depend on how long these bushings will last you.
To make sure your trucks are always performing at their best you should keep some spare Bushings on the shelf at home & inspect these them on a regular basis (preferably before riding) & in particular replace any bushings that are showing signs of wear & then even if they are not broken from time to time replace them anyway...
One way to check your bushings is to man h&le the truck when fitted to the deck... If you feel any play between the Hanger & the Baseplate then you definitely need to replace the bushings straight away before you do damage to the hanger.
Worn out Bushings will cause the kingpin to rub in the Hanger kingpin hole... The kingpin is much stronger than the Aluminium used to make the hanger & the kingpin will wear a nasty hole of you do not fix the problem before it gets too late.
If you ride with trucks that have play in them, then you are lining yourself up for an accident... If you feel any play, this can at speed convert to wobble & we all know riding with a board with a wobble will lead to accidents, so it is wise to check your bushings & rings on a regular basis.
The difference between the four bushings is the thickness of the base. The different base sizes are 1mm, 1.5mm, 2mm and 2.5mm. 2.5mm is the standard size we work to. As all trucks have 4 bushings this .5mm difference in each of the bushing bases allows us to bridge a maximum distance of 2mm (4x.05mm=2m) resolving any foreseeable problems.
Kingpin Bushings 3mm Base - for Spring Trucks
The Kingpin Bushings sit tightly in position & hold the Kingpin in a wear-free position between the moving metal parts of the hanger & Baseplate.

Custom Colour Spring - Powdercoated Sprung Steel Steering Springs
TRAMPA's SPRINGS are coiled to precision & fit into the TRAMPA Spring Trucks perfectly. They easily squeeze into the space between the Baseplate & Hanger & being made to measure they are firstly very easy to fit with no clamps or tools required to squueze them into position & secondly to be super responsive to the rider.! Once the spring assembly is fitted correctly the steering resistance is taken up instantly!
Our Springs have been designed to work in perfect harmony with the TRAMPA DAMPA's & TRAMPA SPRING RETAINER providing maximum performance from the "Spring assembly" to the rider. The DAMPA's drop into the SPRING & the SPRING RETAINERS seal the ends of the spring, holding the DAMPA in exact position to be pre-loaded & squeezed into the truck. Using just a little bit of muscle, squeeze the loaded spring into the truck, then lock the spring into position using the Spring Adjuster & M5 x 12mm Countersunk Bolt. The TRAMPA spring Truck steering system is highly responsive & totally customisable by interchanging the DAMPA's to harder Urethane. Other Mountain Board brands springs will not fit the TRAMPA Trucks as they are a different in dimension.
TRAMPA Springs are available in a selection of Powder-coated colours for good looks & of course for best surface coating protection & this one comes to you in Powder Coated Black.
Spring Retainer - Specially designed to work in harmony with the Dampa & spring
TRAMPA's very own & very special re-enforced Spring retainer. Specifically shaped to fit tightly inside the TRAMPA springs & snugly hold the Trampa Dampa in the exact position to give precision steering to the rider. Made by Injection Moulding using original Dupont Materials, with an extra wide Marine-Grade Stainless Steel Flanged Insert seated internally, re-enforcing the Retainer. The Extra Strength of the re-enforced flange, eliminates the need for a very fiddly fitting washer, that is still found in the MBS and Scrub boards today.
Designed to work in harmony with the TRAMPA spring and TRAMPA Dampa to help create immediate resistance from your steering system. With TRAMPA Embossed around the rim of the retainer - you'll have performance with pimpness!
TRAMPA's SPRINGS are coiled to precision & fit into the TRAMPA Spring Trucks perfectly. They easily squeeze into the space between the Baseplate & Hanger & being made to measure they are firstly very easy to fit with no clamps or tools required to squeeze them into position & secondly to be super responsive to the rider.! Once the spring assembly is fitted correctly the steering resistance is taken up instantly!
Our Springs have been designed to work in perfect harmony with the TRAMPA DAMPA's & TRAMPA SPRING RETAINER providing maximum performance from the "Spring assembly" to the rider. The DAMPA's drop into the SPRING & the SPRING RETAINERS seal the ends of the spring, holding the DAMPA in exact position to be pre-loaded & squeezed into the truck. Using just a little bit of muscle, squeeze the loaded spring into the truck, then lock the spring into position using the Spring Adjuster & M5 x 12mm Countersunk Bolt. The TRAMPA spring Truck steering system is highly responsive & totally customisable by interchanging the DAMPA's to harder Urethane. Other Mountain Board brands springs will not fit the TRAMPA Trucks as they are a different in dimension.
TRAMPA Springs are available in a selection of Powder-coated colours for good looks & of course for best surface coating protection & this one comes to you in Powder Coated Black.
Spring length - 66.5mm
Spring external diameter - 30mm
Spring internal diameter - 21mm

The TRAMPA DAMPA is a Urethane Elastomer that fits inside the Spring of a Truck. Its purpose is to support the Spring & give extra resistance during steering. Its clever design has three balls stacked & connected on-top of each other. The middle ball is slightly fatter than the outer two, during steering they all compress against each other giving greater feed back in your turns. This stacked design gives a fantastic progressive feel to steering.
By varying the SHORE DUROMETER (Rubber Hardness) strength of the Urethane mixture, we can control the amount of movement in the DAMPA. This in turn allows the rider to custom tune the resistance of their steering perfect to their requirements. The spheres of the DAMPA fit perfectly into the cup of the specially made TRAMPA SPRING RETAINER which is the part that locates & locks the Spring in the the TRAMPA SPRING TRUCKS, and they instantly start to work with the slightest movement from the rider. TRAMPA DAMPA's work in harmony with the rider, supplying the perfect amount of steering resistance whilst eliminating all chances of speed wobble. Now available in 5 different steering resistance's for all levels of rider out there, Orange DAMPA's are for easy steering, whilst White DAMPA's are for the totally committed!
Turning the Spring Adjuster clockwise pre-loads the tension in the Spring and DAMPA. This can be adjusted on the fly to suit the terrain & conditions. Turning the spring adjuster too much will put pressure on the DAMPA & eventually it may split. Rather than putting too much pressure into the DAMPA, consider up-grading the DAMPA to a harder Shore Durometer as this will most likely increase your performance than over tightening a DAMPA that's not stiff enough for you.

Spring Adjuster - Marine Grade Stainless Steel
TRAMPA's very own & very special SPRING ADJUSTER is made using A4 MARINE GRADE STAINLESS STEEL & is guaranteed never to rust on you! The Spring adjuster is fitted to the trucks once the springs have been pushed into position. The spring adjuster pre-tensions the steering suitable for the rider’s requirements. We designed the Spring Adjuster to be slightly shorter in length than other brands’, to avoid the tip of the adjuster poking through the internal of the Spring Retainer, and interfering with the performance of the DAMPA located on the inside of the Retainer.
Should you need extra resistance from your steering because you wish to ride fast, or if you need more steering because the course is twisty, then you can very easily & quickly adjust the resistance of your steering by simply turning the spring adjuster in the correct direction. To get the most out of your trucks on changeable terrain, simply use a 4mm Allen Key to make your adjustments. Winding the Spring Adjuster clockwise increases the steering resistance, which in turn restricts wobble at high speed. Turning the Adjuster anti-clockwise loosens the steering allowing a more carvey ride.
DO NOT over tighten your Spring Adjuster, as this may crush your DAMPA. If you need more steering resistance upgrade your DAMPA's & do not over tighten!
TRAMPA's very own Mountainboard Bearings measure 12 x 28 x 8mm & will fit in to all of the Hubs that TRAMPA has to offer.
TRAMPA's precision made Bearings are polished to an internationally recognised ABEC 7 quality. (ABEC 3-5 is recognised as the industry standard). ABEC 7 polishing gives you a super smooth, super fast ride with extendend free rolling & top end roll speeds.
The Bearings are designed to fit TRAMPA wheels directly to 12mm axles, however using Bearing Reducer Spacers you are able to make 6001-2RS Bearings fit to Mini Spring Truck or 12FIFTIES Truck which both use 9.525mm Axles... Using Bearing reducer sleeves on 9.525mm Axles gives a very neat flush finish to the assembly insuring your Bearings spin freely.
Mountainboard Bearings are officially known as 6001 2RS Bearings. 6001 tells you the bearings size whilst 2RS means the bearing has 2 Removable Sides. During production the rubber coated sidewalls are inserted into the Outer raceway & are in contact with the inner raceway, they protect the single row of lubricated ball bearings housed within the enclosed raceways from the ingress of moisture, dust & dirt, retaining the pre-filled grease within the bearing, maintaining maximum performance to the board & rider for as long as possible. The rubber coated sidewalls come in RED, BLUE & BLACK or CERAMIC GREEN & are embossed with the TRAMPA logo proving the Top Quality!
The sidewalls are removable so you can service your bearings... Servicing your bearings on a regular basis will ensure they run well for you. Remove your wheels & take out your bearings, then using a pointy object simply pick off one side of the bearings & pop them into some solvent or fuel to dissolve any grease, i use an old tooth brush to rub the bearings gently, hopefully removing all the dirt that gets in... I pop them into another pot of clean fuel & make sure the fuel stays clean so i know the bearings are clean.. Once clean i take them out, placing onto some tissue or similar to dry out, you can rub them or blow them dry with an air line which is fun as they mae a whizzy noise! once dry i add a few tiny drops of sewing machine oil & place the bearing, open side into the wheel leaving the 1 side that still has the rubber sidewall in the outer position protecting your bearings from the further ingress of dirt getting in.... Repeat according to your riding demands, more riding = more servicing if you want best performance!
Bearing conversion Spacers - 9.525mm or 10mm Axle's
A Bearing Reducer Spacer is a very handy little part. A Bearing Reducer Spacer will fit into any 12mm ATB Bearing on the market & is used to convert 12mm Bearings to fit onto either 9.525mm axles (3/8ths of an inch Imperial) or 10mm metric Axles.
Within the TRAMPA range of products you will commonly find 9.525mm axles on Skate Trucks & both styles of the ATB & MINI ULTIMATE Spring trucks that use TITANIUM Axles.
10mm Metric Axles are often used for Alternative Application uses that TRAMPA often fits onto, for example, TRAMPA Wheels fit to many other brands of Dirt Scooter & the wheel axle the industry standard use is 10mm metric for mounting wheels....
Simply slip the Conversion Spacer into your 12mm Bearing & then insert the Wheel onto the axle.... Couldn't be easier.... :-)
The Pressed Aluminum Conversion Spacer is accurately made so that it fits snugly into your bearing whilst it also slides tightly over the axle. The Flanged Rim of the conversion spacer allows the axle nut to tighten against the inner steel raceway without squashing the bearing wall, insuring free spinning maximum performance from your bearings at all times. The sleeve can be re used over & over again but for ongoing best performance remember to replace your bearings regularly....
10mm Rubber O-Ring to fit in Bearings - 2mm Section x 10mm Bore NITRILE 70
This O-Ring should be fitted when a 12 x 16.5mm Bearing Support Spacer is fitted into the wheel assembly when fitting a wheel onto 12mm Axles.
It fits alongside the Bearing Support Spacer, in-between the Bearings. This O-Ring prevents rattles from the spacer against the bearings. Over time, during the usage of your board, the bearings & spacers are put under a lot of force. Ultimately this force has to go somewhere... The Bearings use a Steel ring in their assembly where as the Bearing Support Spacers are made from Aluminum. Steel is much stronger than Aluminum & when forced against each the aluminum will loose out every time! This is what happens to your spacers between the bearings, the Bearings put force onto your spacers as a consequence over time the spacers shrink... With enough time its possible for an annoying rattle to start.... That's when you fit these little O-Rings!! :-)
8 Inch Inner Tube PRIMO 8x2 inch 200x50mm - fits 3.75 inch Rims & 8 inch tyres
PRIMO's own 8 Inch Inner Tube has dimensions of 200mm (outer diameter) x 50mm (width) & will fit into all known 8 inch Tyres & ATB hubs on the market!
The CST PRIMO Inner Tube incorporates slightly thicker rubber into its manufacture process which means the tube is slightly heavier than alternatives but does allow the rider to inflate slightly higher. This extra thickness also gives some extra resistance to punctures, but punctures suck, so always carry a spare inner tube when you are riding as you never know when you might get one.
The PRIMO Tube uses a 90º Brass Inflation valve which will not rust on you & comes as you would expected with a plastic "anti dust" valve cap!

TRAMPA SPOKES for Superstar or Megastar Hubs. TRAMPA's Spokes are produced using T6 Heat-Treated 6061 Aero-grade "Top Quality" Aluminum, which is forced through an Extrusion Die. Our Spokes are made in one continuous piece - once extruded the resulting profile is T6 Heat Treated - making the Alloy extremely strong.
The spokes are bead polished to take away and sharp edges then the spokes are sent away to the Anodisers to have the relevant colours added. Once the colour has been added the precision CNC machine is put back to work to mill out the bearing housing perfectly.
Check your spoke support spacers, O-Rings and hardware is in good condition when changing spokes & ensure all of your nuts & bolts are tight before you ride!
This is the TRAMPA SUPERSTAR Spoke Support Spacer. It is used to gain extra strength for the SUPERSTAR wheel design by adding support to the Aluminum Spokes when the wheel is being used under high inflated pressures...
Precision injection moulded, using original DuPont materials, this Spacer provides essential support for the Spokes in the Superstar hubs. There is a Deep Shelf on the Rim of the Spacer which pushes into the internal side of the Spoke, positioning the Spacer/spoke perfectly for assembly. The thick plastic ensures a very strong support platform maximising Bearing support & spin rate always....
Ensure all your nuts & bolts are tight before riding!!
The PRIMO ALPHA Lite tyre is a super light-weight Off-Road Tyre. Using just 2 PR of the finest grade rubber & incorporating a very high TPI under its skin combined together these secret details reduce weight considerably, making its reputation as the worlds best Off Road 8-inch Tyre! When inflated the PRIMO ALPHA Lite tyre measures 200x50mm. The Tyre incorporates a 3.75 inch Steel Band into the rim to hold everything in position & it slips onto the TRAMPA hubs perfectly. The ALPHA tyre will fit to all known hub Brands that are used for Mountainboarding & Kiteboarding.
Made from relatively softish rubber the ALPHA tyre gives fantastic grip. Its design incorporates a wide center bead to allow & maintain straight line speed, whist its surrounding edges are beautifully sculptured wide grooves that supply high levels of grip regardless of the terrain type. - This tyre really is great for all off road applications.
The more you inflate your Tyres the faster you will roll! The official maximum inflation pressure set by the factory for the ALPHA Tyre is 50psi, but the ALPHA Tyres are made so well & the TRAMPA Hubs are so strong that our Crash test Dummies (I mean Team Riders) have been known to inflate these Tyres well beyond their recommended pressures with no problems to mention. Over inflating your tyres may lead to an explosion which could seriously injure you. If you do decide to go beyond the max inflation pressure ensure your nuts & bolts are tight & deflate back to a regular pressure after use.
TRAMPA's MAGURA HS 11 BRAKE system is an incredibly powerful braking system developed solely for the TRAMPA Trucks. The MAGURA Brakes give you the ability to transform your riding range, making terrain you had previously thought of as 'Off Limits' into new & easily ride-able or even dream-able terrain you just have to ride! You will quickly gain a new air of confidence in your ability by riding with the MAGURA Hydraulic brake system!
By gently squeezing the hand held brake lever this incredibly powerful braking system will progressively slow you to a halt or squeeze hard & it will skid you to a stop!
