Just ordered them can't wait
Softens the ride on rough surfaces but not great grip and on wet very slippery.
I have them on my Lycaon GR 2021 and i love them! Doubt that ill use the 90 PU that came with my board ever but they make a hub feel amazing
I got the 120’s on my ownboard Zeus. So far I really enjoy them. They take about 100 miles to really break in and flatten out a bit giving you more contact surface. Great wheel in my book.
That's what I was wondering if they wear down and eventually get more contact
Reptilian they do for sure
cloud wheels are good for a particular need. They are good at bad streets and light grass and other semi offroad stuff. they are quite light and they don't impact the range much compared to bigger street wheels or air filled tires. they aren't as good offroad as tire and aren't as good onroad as pu wheels but they are a hybrid so its logical. some people say there bad because they don't do one thing good but others say there good because they can do multiple things well enough. btw I got the 105's I've ridden 300km+ on them and they hold up good, I also recently got the 120's they aren't fully ridden in so I can't judge on them jet
@SNOW & POW Adventures that’s good I haven’t had any off my wheels break so it’s good these don’t eather
are the 105s you have for meepo themselves? how does it feel when riding on pavement with small seperation gaps in between them?
FINALLY - someone who acknowledges these are slippery wheels. Not enough contact on the ground. They’re dangerous. You need to consider this heavily
@SNOW & POW Adventures Grip has to do with ground contact (which clouds have less of) so that’s incorrect - but are you referring to the tread, after they’ve been broken in?
Cause that much is true. Clouds are flat out better for going over short grass, bad-ish roads, etc. Because they have better tread, making it more comfortable - but it can’t be confused with Grip! PU wheels are fully contacted…if you carve the same on PU and then clouds, you’re less stable on clouds
I think I see what you’re saying, but in general more influencers need to mention the cons of cloudwheels rather than just considering them “in between PU and AT” because that’s misleading.
I hardly fall on PUs, and I’ve fallen on clouds when I shouldn’t have, because they’ve slid out, a bunch of times. I don’t want to hear or see people getting hurt bc they want cool-looking wheels on their board and don’t know the risk
I just started riding clouds and slippery is the last word i would describe them with if it's wet PU wheels or most wheels will lose a bit off contact but to say dangerous is not accurate might have just had a bad experience and it depends on the rider.
@SNOW & POW Adventures Lol I appreciated this until the last sentence...we didn't need that in this thread. If you think I'm wrong just say so and why, being a jerk doesn't help me or anyone reading. I still think we're talking tread versus grip. The AT ground contact vs PU makes sense, but AT wheels are basically bicycle tires so I think it's apples to oranges.
I guess people can buy what they want, but I know I'm not the only one that's felt they can be sketchy on turns vs. PU. It's not a popular stance bc they're a buzz on the internet. Idk man/woman, I'm going off personal exp and a few people who I've ridden with that's all. A few YT channels have mentioned it but they usher it under the rug bc of clouds popularity prob. I think they can be dangerous under certain circumstances a middle/high speeds, if those conditions remained the same with PU wheels
@SNOW & POW Adventures fair enough, didn’t know my comment could be taken that way but you know, the internet
Yeah idk I’m sure you ride well and have tested. We watched the same video - the maker of which thinks they can be slippery at times which I why I posted my original comment
So maybe grip is how you handle the board and not as much an objectively measure able thing for wheels, idk!
You guys are both gay. When it comes to grip the rider is the variable not the wheel. I can break stock wheels loose and still maintain control so I guarantee you I can break these wheels loose if I wanted to. I doubt either of you could.
The 120 mm donut upgrade is good 👍🏽! Also looks like a remote controlled monster truck, but, you can ride it
😁
Yes get it get it
Beastboard wind wheels or cloud wheel?? In your opinion which is better?
I've been on the fence about getting these for my BF Zealot S. I might take the plunge one if these days. I mostly just ride around the city anyway. Roads here are decent
I think you should give it a try with the 105mm wheels. And i ride mines in the city which has been smooth everytime
if you're going over bumpy roads cloudwheels will be more efficient though?
Have you found the battery pack casing is fragile and breaks on the AwD pro? Have you ever tried to repair or strengthen the enclosures?
What is the internal diameter of the 105mm cloud wheels.
I've seen in videos how cloud wheels can ride over rocks and pebbles on dirt roads. I'm assuming a part of the reason for that is that the ground gives a little and enables the wheels to roll over them without locking up. However, do cloud wheels handle rocks better than 96mm street wheels on paves roads? I'm about to buy my first board with no skating experience. I'm hoping to minimize my chances of my wheels locking up.
I have my first Eskate from Enskate and the 83 mms wheels are literally destroyed because of the horrible streets here in Mexico
I'm starting to think about getting a better board with Cloudwheels.
is there any other off road wheels for hub motters
👍👍👍
Can some one answer a question for me. In my city most trails are concrete with cracks every square. Are the 105 or 120 better for this application? I hate riding my 90mm street wheels it’s so bumpy and has cause me to break multiple decks at the trucks.
Sorry late reply, 120 mm is always better for comfort, but u will have less power.
Interested in these for wet, cold, possibly lightly snowed in streets. US NE approved?
It behave the same way as a standard PU wheels on wet roads. The only good one for wet roads is rubber wheels.
Does this fit with era 2
Not bad but why take so long to ship??
Only 'problem' is that the blue TorqueBoards 110mm wheels are "discontinued"...and, the black ones are constantly "out of stock".
I thought the black were discontinued. The blue are on their site right now.
@@cbillings6 I got that one SOOOOOO backwards. Seriously, THANK YOU, for catching that one. Gonna get them ordered asap.
Can I use them on my Jking hub board? Thank you
No you can’t
what board was used in the video at 4:37
I bet its exway flex
I love being treated better lol
Sponsored by meepo ..... but u cant get them for a meepo???? Unless it's the belt pos
Hi Robert!
The Cloudwheel Donut 120H supports Meepo V3/MINI2/NLS PRO/AWD PRO..
If you wan the 105H version then... you might be out of luck though..
@@ElectricSkateboardHQ you should look again Because the do not have them
They have them for almost everything else!
First ones on the list but as you will notice they do not have any.... see the line across meepo? Ya that means they dont have them
I have contacted cloud wheels and they have no information as of now on when they will have them
Still don’t get what’s wrong with the rubber, except skates pretty much everything on earth rides on rubber, and it’s the best material for wheels so far.
Most skateboards have polyurethane wheels which technically have rubber in them but are not at all the same as rubber
@@stpierreorama I meant the real rubber tires like any other transport in the world.
@@shalvami Most AT boards use rubber tires but I think lower budget boards can’t really make them work considering their lower power ranges
Be careful ordering from meepo. I ordered the wrong part and immediately emailed them, less than five minutes. I received an email that said they couldn't do anything cause it was shipping out soon. So basically I have to take parts that don't fit my board. I will no longer buy from a company with this kind of service and neither should you.
Cheeto wheels
I've had the worst experience so far ordering from these guys. First they sent me the wrong set of wheels. Then one day before the right ones arrived, they changed the address with UPS! They sent them to another province! To another customer I can only guess. asked them why and they just said sorry it was another mistake.
Before I made my order I asked them if they could Send express and they said no problem. Here I am almost a month later still no set of wheels. I have the wrong ones which I will send back once the right ones arrive. I want collateral in case they don't arrive although they are useless to me. UPS also failed miserably as they said 100% it was coming to me when I noticed they changed the recipient one day before arrival. Just extremely disappointed E. No idea how it will turn out. Out $220 CAN so far but I will fight it if I get scammed outright.
clouds r better to carve on than 6” pneumatics??? LOL yea okayyy 😂😂😂😂.. u also forgot to mention how it takes away power/acceleration and agility.. i put in one of my videos, even smaller wheels like 85mm wheels can accomplish what cloudwheels can. its just a personal preference of “comfort”…
