Does anybody have the durometer for the Indy bushings yet? Been wanting to get some but I wanna make the best choice in the hardness and turiness.

Thanks

Anyone? There has got to be someone that knows the durometer on the Indy bushings right?

Holey hour-glass bushings: 85A (Red)

Lush also have genuine replacement bushings in 95A (Blue)

I simply cannot imagine the need for harder Holey bushings.

45 deg DH truck? Could carve like a crail. Hard bottom with the soft top?

I ordered them and tried that, it became very tippy, with none of the progressiveness of the stock trucks. I find the blue bushing are better for my weight (240 all geared up). They're on a loaded vanguard flex 1.
Where the red stock bushings are super responsive, to the point of being twitchy when going faster, the blues just seem to settle the board down. I have to be more decisive when I make the board turn but I like that.
I don't feel that I've lost any of the boards ability to carve what-so-ever when I really go for it, but when I straighten out and bomb a short section, like in a garage with my friends for example, the board just seems more stable.
My friend however, who's about a hundred pounds lighter than me, said it made my board feel dead, he liked the stock ones more.
In summary, I like them because I feel like I can be more aggressive on the board, move around a little, really push into carves, with the blues.

I like hard top, soft bottom more.

GFH means there new Green Khiros, which are 78a.
I don't think they updated the pics of the trucks yet.

[Xgecko]

Green Khiro's ??? where and when do I find these Green Khiro's you speak of?

[Astronomical]

Anyone get a reading for the Bennett bushings?

Actually, there is no difference between the "new" GFH Green Khiros and the Blue Khiros except the color. I spoke with Khiro Bob and asked about the alleged 80A Green GFH/Khiro bushings that people were talking about and he said it was all a misunderstanding. They are making a green bushing for GFH, but it is the exact same formula as the 85A bushing in a new color...

does anyone know anything about the duros of force bushings. Maybe Mark can help?? and do both the r7 and c7 come with the same bushings. Its a barrel bottom and a conical top btw for the rest of the guys to know.

Mark from Mile High indicates in the recent thread, "Stability of Bennetts", (this Forum), he's looking into this.

But the stock and after market ones are tottaly diffrent right?

[Slim]

Yes, they are different. The stock orange ones feel like plastic, but the aftermarket ones are ok. Similarly, the indy brand replacement pivot cups are way better than the ones they put in the trucks stock. Go figure...
