M4 x 40mm Socket Capped TORX Bolt - Marine Grade Stainless steel with locking paste
TRAMPA's M4 x 40mm Socket Capped Bolt is made using A4 Marine Grade Stainless Steel. This very special Bolt is specifically made for TRAMPA & is used to assemble the TRAMPA PHATLADZ HUBS. The socket capped head of the Bolt screws neatly though the Spokes & into the fixing point in the Rim, eventually screwing into the M4 nut on the other side easly.
Weighing just 3 grams each, they are very lightweight, look very sexy & are totally non corrosive. Using Marine Grade Stainless Steel, means these Bolts will never rust on you! They can cope with the most harsh of weather conditions & they laugh in the face of sandy/salty beaches or muddy freeride tracks, which do turn other manufacturers Nuts & Bolts into corrosive rusting wrecks! As well as being Non Corrosive all of the TRAMPA Bolts are diped in BLUE THREAD LOCKING PASTE to ensure an extra strong secure fix between the Nut & the Bolt.
M4 x 16mm TORX Socket Capped Head Bolt ISO 4762 Marine Grade Stainless Steel
TORX Screws are less likely to strip out when compared to a hex screw, because of the way the load is distributed and applied between the tool and the hardware. Because of this load distribution, the height of the head of the bolt can be reduced - making them nice & flush.
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.
M4 Nyloc Nut - Marine Grade stainless steel Nylock Nut - Hub Nuts
Introducing TRAMPA's M4 (4mm Shaft) A4 Marine Grade Stainless steel Nylock Nut. This Nylock Nut will fit to all M4 Bolts regardless of their length. This A4 Marine Grade Stainless Steel Nut will never rust on you! It is fitted with the world renowned NYLOCK System (Nylock is a nylon locking system where Nylon is pasted into the threads of the nut so that when the bolt is tightened into the nut the nylon grabs the thread of the bolt holding it locking it in the thread ensuring things do not vibrate loose or fall off when being ridden on rough terrain like that which a Mountain or Kiteboard endures. The NYLOCK thread locking security System is fitted as standard to all TRAMPA Nuts.
This Nut is used to fix to tighten to the M4 Socket Capped Bolts that hold the HYPA & SUPERSTAR hubs together. To fit the nuts M4 use an 8mm spanner or 8mm Ratchet Socket to turn the Nut onto the Bolt whilst holding the bolt with a 3mm Allen Key. Always ensure your Nuts & Bolts are tight before you ride!
8 Inch Inner Tube INNOVA 8x2 inch 200x50mm - fits 3.75 inch Rims & 8 inch tyres
INNOVA's Re-enforced 8 Inch inner tube measures 200mm x 50mm and will fit into all the of the 8 inch Tyres on the website. INNOVA's 8 Inch Inner Tube also fits into the tyres of all other brands measuring 8 Inches inflated.
Being made from slightly thicker rubber, this Inner Tube is slightly heavier than alternatives but this INNOVA Inner Tube will handle much higher than recommended inflation rates... Therefore this INNOVA inner tube is the ideal tube for heavier or Pro Riders seeking to achieve higher than recommended inflation pressures...
This INNOVA Inner tube will fit into all known 8 inch tyres as well as most ATB hubs on the market. It comes as expected with an anti dust valve cap! Punctures Suck! Its always possible to get a puncture in the environments we ride in, so always carry a spare if you don't want your day spoiling...
It was hard to ever imagine that TRAMPA's SUPERSTAR hub could ever be improved upon - but that's just what we’ve gone’n’done! The Super Sexy MEGASTAR Rims are a PRO version of the already amazing SUPERSTAR Rim!
CNC Milled from a solid block of T6 aluminium, polished, anodised (in 10 different colours!) & logo-ed up for a pimp appearance - all of the various MEGASTAR Rims we offer fit the regular SUPERSTAR SPOKES, so if you already use Superstars & fancy an upgrade, you’ll only need to purchase the Rims to make the swap.
MEGASTAR Hubs can handle the highest inflation pressures of any small wheel on the market. Increasing inflation rates ultimately increases maximum roll speeds, making these hubs the perfect option for the insane among us!
MEGASTAR Rims have extra threaded bolt holes for wheel balancing purposes - the extra holes allow you to screw in 2x extra M4x16mm Socket cap TORX Bolts directly opposite the valve - which in turn counter-balances, creating a smoother rotation & faster spin rate!
Megastars are available in a variety of sizes, with different spoke/bearing positioning for a number of different applications!
CENTER-SET Bearing position, which is a direct aluminium replacement of the original plastic-injection Superstar rim. Keeping the bearings centrally-located within the hub leaves the wheelbase unchanged, for a nimble feeling & riding board.
Megastar 8 CENTRE SET RIMS fit all 3.75x2 inch Rim Tyres & Regular Superstar / Skinny BB-Star Spokes.
OFF-SET Bearing position moves the wheels further from your feet - widening the boards wheelbase, which in turn increases stability - perfect for large people & small Boards. Initially created in conjunction with narrower Truck Models (12-Fifties & Mini Spring Trucks) in order to grant clearance for bigger tyres or rear-mounted battery boxes.
Megastar 8 OFF SET RIMS fit all 3.75x2 inch Rim Tyres & Regular Superstar / Skinny BB-Star Spokes.
Megastar 9 OFF SET RIMS fit all 3.75x2.5 inch Rim Tyres & Regular Superstar / Phat BB-Star Spokes.
DEEP-DISH Rims are as pimp as it gets! These elongated rims both widen the wheelbase of a board as well as the contact patch of the tyres - improving both stability & grip! While also granting extra clearance for fitting larger tyres or rear-mounted battery boxes.
Megastar 8 DEEP DISH RIMS fit all 3.75/4 x 2.5 inch Rim Tyres & Regular Superstar / Skinny BB-Star Spokes.
Megastar 9 DEEP DISH RIMS fit all 3.75/4 x 3 inch Rim Tyres & Regular Superstar / Skinny BB-Star Spokes.
The CENTER SET & OFF SET (3.75 x 2 Inch) MEGASTAR 8 HUBs fit ANY of the tyres in TRAMPA's range up to 8 inches in Diameter - including the 5 Inch Gummies tyres, 6.5 Inch URBAN Treads, 7 Inch Inline tyres & ANY 8 inch tyre option.
The DEEP DISH (3.75/4 x 2.5 Inch) MEGASTAR 8 HUB fits most tyres in TRAMPA's range up to 8 inches in Diameter, widening the tread & increasing the contact patch - including 6.5 Inch URBAN Treads, 7 Inch Inline Tyres & ANY 8 inch Tyre option.
The OFF SET & DEEP DISH (3.75/4 x 2.5/3 Inch) MEGASTAR 9 HUBs fit most of the tyres in the TRAMPA product Range up to 10 inches in Diameter, widening the tread & increasing the contact patch - including the 6.5 Inch URBAN Treads, 7 Inch Inline Tyres & ANY 8, 9 or 10 inch tyre options TRAMPA offers.
TRAMPA's REGULAR SUPERSTAR SPOKES are made from Extruded 6061 Aluminum (Super Strength Aero-grade quality) & comes in a range of colours to satisfy your taste.
TRAMPA’s new BB STAR Spokes are as lush as it gets - CNC’d from T6 Aluminium, available in two models - SKINNY (fits ALL MEGASTAR rims) or PHAT (fits OFF SET MEGASTAR 9 ONLY).
The MEGASTAR's hub construction is held together by using 5x Socket cap M4 x 40mm A4 (Marine Grade) Stainless Steel Nuts & Bolts that'll never rust on you!
Further pimp up your Megastar hubs with M4 Socket Cap spacers - anodised in 10 colours!
TRAMPA's MEGASTAR Hubs can be used in conjunction with any of the Pulleys that fit to SUPERSTAR hubs.
It's possible to fit any Bearing size TRAMPA offers into MEGASTAR Rims. As Standard the Superstar / Megastar spokes accept Mountainboard bearings for 12mm Axles - these bearings can be fitted with Reducer Sleeves that allow the hub to fit to 9.525mm Axles. If you use the Special Spoke Support Spacer into the assembly of the hub, you can fit to 8mm Longboard Axles - where hundreds of top quality bearing options are available to choose from.
TRAMPA SPOKES fit all SUPERSTAR & MEGASTAR Hubs. TRAMPA's Spokes are produced using the finest 6061 'Aero-Grade' Aluminum, which to maximise strength & performance are produced with the use of an Extrusion Die, which means TRAMPA spokes are made in one continuous piece before being sliced like bread to the required thickness. Before being sliced the extruded profile is T6 Heat Treated making the resulting Alloy extremely strong.
Once sliced the Raw Spokes are sent to the CNC machine to mill out the bearing housing perfectly. Before being anodised the spokes are bead polished which not only gives a top quality finish but also removes all & any sharp edges, then finally sent away to the Anodisers to have the relevant striking colours added for top surface protection.
Check your spoke support spacers, O-Rings and hardware are 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!!
INNOVA's 8 Inch INLINE TYRE is an off the shelf "Old Skool Classic". Its 'Straight cut' tread & ballon shaped sidewalls suggest this tyre is the perfect option for easy rolling.
Measuring 8x 2 Inches or 200 x 50mm when inflated, INNOVA's 8 Inch INLINE Tyre will fit to all of the TRAMPA Hubs that measure 3.75 or 3.75/4 Inches at the Rim. The factory's recommended max tyre pressure is 50psi but the TRAMPA hubs are so strong that top riders have been known to inflate these tyres well beyond their recommended pressures with no problems to mention. If you do decide to go beyond the max inflation pressure ensure your nuts & bolts holding the hub together are adequately tight & deflate to a regular pressure after use. We recommend you should look to inflate these tyres to somewhere between 30 & 45 psi for optimal use.The 3mm deep INLINE grooved surface, encourages the tyre to "Track" in a straight line & unlike the Long Board sized / style wheels, the 8 inch pneumatic rubber tyre is plenty big enough to not even feel small cracks or obstacles you might encounter on the street when riding on longboard wheels, with no problem at all....!
A 3.75 Inch Steel Band is moulded into the Rim of the INLINE Tyre to give structure whilst a regular TPI (TPI = Threads per Inch) gives the tyre its stiff structure when stitching the Steel Bands together. Slightly heavier than other tyres we offer the INLINE tyre is "4PR" rated. PR means "Ply Rating" & refers to the number of layers of rubber. so this tyre has 4 Layers of rubber smothering the regular threaded surface. Some tyres in the TRAMPA range are 2PR, so having 4PR means its double thickness & therefore heavier as consequence but also longer lasting & arguably more resistant to punctures.
Measuring 3.75 inch at the rim, the 8 Inch INLINE Tyre will fit to all the 3.75 inch Rim hubs, which will in turn fit to several different sized Slave Pulleys that TRAMPA uses in its Drive trains. Connecting a 66 Tooth pulley to an 8 Inch tyre/wheel will give you the best all round hamonised performance. Fitting a 76 Tooth Pulley to a 8 Inch Tyre/wheel (Only connects to 5 spoke wheels) will increase the Torque & acceleration but reduce your top speed, this is a great combination if you are perhaps riding on a pump track or if you do a lot of up hill riding, or if your a particularly heavy rider needing a bit more gearing. Fitting a 62 Tooth Pulley to a 8 inch Tyre/wheel will reduce acceleration but increase the top speed. If you are a light weight rider this combination could work very well for you.
Its true, the more you inflate your Tyres the faster you will roll! It also true that if you inflate your tyres too high or too low you will also see excessive wear on your tyres much faster. The official maximum inflation pressure set by the factory for the INLINE Tread 8 Inch Tyre is 50psi, but the INLINE Tyres are made so well (By Innova) & the TRAMPA Hubs are so strong (The tyres are only as strong as the hubs they are fitted too & our hubs are incredibly 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. Its also true that over inflating your tyres may lead to an explosion which could seriously injure you, so use a pressure gauge if your going to inflate them high so you don't go too far. If you do decide to go beyond the max inflation pressure ensure your nuts & bolts are tight before inflation & once your done riding at the high pressure deflate them back down to a regular pressure to rest,
