Description
The new Byron Essert wheel from Powell-Peralta!
This wheel is a freeride based wheel with a centre-set core that allows you to flip it for even wheel wear, and with large radiused edges for smooth slides. This new Byron wheel features 75a Soft Slide Formula PRO, which has more traction than the standard 75a SSF which is found in Snakes and you’ll find yourself gripping through corners you didn’t think you could, but still sliding smoothly when you want it.
Byron is an all around downhill skater and wanted a wheel that could both grip canyon corners, as well as slash and slide through the grippiest neighbourhood. We’ve delivered. One of the best wheels in the game!
