Orangatang Longboard Wheels Durian Pink 75mm 83A with Loaded Jehu V2 Bearings
by
Orangatang
SKU: OTANG-DURN-PNK + LO801
Description
The Orangatang Durian 75mm 83A Longboard Wheels (Pink) with Loaded Jehu V2 Bearings pair Orangatang's Durian with Loaded's longboard bearings in one package. Firmer: easier slides and more speed on smooth pavement.
Much like its botanical namesake, the Durian is a big, meaty, and succulent gob of urethane designed to carry you across town to the not-so-local fruit stand, or to be smeared liberally over your favorite downhill freeride run.
It's poured in Orangatang's Happy Thane formula for high roll speed, plush feel, and smooth, predictable drifts. Rounded lips and a stone-ground contact patch mean it slides ripe out of the box, with buttery hookup and release and no break-in period required.

About the Durian Shape
Rounded lips let go smoothly when you slide, a stone-ground contact patch slides from day one, and an offset hub lets the outer lip flex and grab the road, per Orangatang. This mid-size diameter balances roll speed with quick acceleration.

How Durometer Works
Orangatang color-codes every wheel by hardness. Lower is softer: more grip and more cushion. Higher is harder: easier slides, more durable, and faster on smooth pavement.

|---|---|---|
| Blue | 77A | Softest: the most grip and cushion |
| Orange | 80A | The sensible middle, and the one Orangatang hands to friends |
| Pink or Purple | 83A | Firmer: easier slides and more speed on smooth pavement |
| Yellow | 86A | Hardest: the easiest slides and the most durable |
About Loaded Jehu V2 Bearings
Loaded Jehu V2 bearings have extended inner raceways that eliminate the need for separate spacers and speed rings, so you can crank your axle nuts all the way down and keep your setup tight. They use rubberized steel shields for durability and easy maintenance, the highest-grade chromium steel, and an interior step ring that keeps them lubricated. Loaded developed and tested them for the speed, durability, and demands of performance longboarding.
