Gbomb Cambiar Specifications

[st3v13]

how are the brackets different?
Will you sell them individually?
B/c I have a G-bomb and have been using it for LDP. I can't get quite enough leverage.

Regarding the pumping. We recently started to offer the 15mm drop bracket. I suspect that the drop you are riding is closer to 20mm. Below is a picture of the 15mm drop with a .1" riser above the truck. Note that the truck is positioned closer to a drop through with this binding/bracket. Well, a drop through without all the stress concentrations of putting a hole in the middle of the deck . This 15mm drop is a good compromise for balancing the push/pump/fun equation. The more aggressive 20mm and 25mm drops are available for those who are more push focused. We at G|Bomb really are focused on optimizing this equation for our customers.

And we are now offering the brackets separately for you do-it-yourselfers. Contact us for details and pricing.

I am having so much fun with my Cambiar. I have had it just over a week and it already has about 30 miles on it. I love the versatility that the brackets provide. It is nice to have a board that can handle any style riding. The stiff platform generates a lot of rebound and really gives me speed when carving hard. Saturday was an epic soul carving day. I was really laying down some smooth fast turns and could practically reach out and touch the ground on the toeside carves.

Thanks Mark!

my randal baseplates conflict with my rubber
guard thingy...

I just flipped the bumper so it screws in from the top & shaved it down a bit with razor blade.

Several months now with my GBomb...I use it every day to ride home from work, and get some crazy looks from people when I ride by as they never saw anything like it. I just recently started classes again, and took the board up there for a spin as I have a 30 minute break between classes...dash over to the cafeteria for lunch, dash back...perfect ride. Fellow students were shocked as well seeing the board.

Are Seismic trucks compatable with the Gbomb truck mounting plates?

i was able to get one on the rear bracket by taking off the rubber bumper but it doesn't slide over the full range of the curved bracket. wouldn't be an issue with the front angled bracket of course.

Interesting. Is that a Seismic 155 or a 180 on there? How far can you dewedge the rear with the Seismic?

The pavedwave blog really sparks some ideas. I think I am going to really start experimenting with different truck and wheel combos. I have a set of Revenge trucks that may turn out to be real fun when paired with the Cambiar.

The new Gbomb site is up and running. It looks great Mark!

[markgroenenboom]

Thanks for the site compliments. It was a long overdue update and we still wanted to keep it simple for this spring and summer. Lots of verbiage for those few left who actually read . We are continuing to push on getting the e-commerce in place and we will embrace using videos to communicate more details about our products too.

Regarding some more tinkering, see the pictures. The 97mm wheels are too big on the G|Baby (or Baby Bomb) and prone to a bit of footbite. However, check out the pavedwave forum for some photos with some 75mm wheels that worked well. Believe it or not, it is actually pretty functional and we will prove it with some video to come. www.pavedwave.org

Aw...the baby bomber is cute! I just showed my bro and now he wants to 'make' one. By the way, the site's awesome. I did a 'mockup' site for my web design class last quarter remaking the Gbomb site and the design now looks pretty close to what I did, color-wise. How long is the platform for the G-Baby-Bomb?

[markgroenenboom]

Thanks! We really want to work on the site more, but time is limited.

How long is the platform for the G-Baby-Bomb?

13.75"

The site looks really nice, the shots of the boards are very appealing

We got creative a the last second before shooting that....can't slip a thing past some folks

4-ply for up to 140 lbs? Mine's been holding me up w/o bottoming out and I'm between the 190-200 range...Not a single scratch on the bottom of the deck! Just feels ultra cushy and lively, just how I like it!
