Mounting advices

For this O'Brien Reaper 9.85", we recommend traditional geometry trucks with a width of 169mm (such as Independent 169). The choice of wheels depends on the usage, but a diameter between 58 and 60mm (consider using 1/4" riser pads) is a good match. Prefer a soft durometer (lower than 90A) if the usage is primarily cruising or pump track, or 95A and above for skatepark riding.
