Caliber III 10" 44° Rakeless Raw longboard trucks

New for 2022, Caliber has updated their trucks, making them one of the best on the market. Price is for a set of TWO trucks.

The rakeless version is an updated Caliber 2. The original Caliber had no rake.

Rake gives a divey turn, and generally makes the truck feel more lively. The initial turn is slow but then it turns a lot like you are diving into a turn. It is more about the feel of the turn. A rakeless truck has a linear turn. The turn feels faster to start, compared to a raked truck, but progresses the same. So the turn feels the same the whole time you lean into a turn. If you like the old Calibers, then this is your truck.

This truck has a shim, it is a plastic insert under the boardside bushing. You can remove the shim and put in tall bushings without affecting the truck geometry. A bigger bushing will give the truck more dimension. Big and soft to create an easier turn or more response, but a harder bushing will restrict the turn when going fast and create more stability.

The baseplate shim is the big feature in Cal 3 trucks. The only other new addition worth noting are custom flat. This model (rakeless), the hanger is identical to the Caliber 2 but it has 3 stamped on it. If you have the older Calibers, you can swap parts between the trucks. The rakeless Cal3 and Cal 2 are identical in weight. The rakeless model is about 50 grams lighter, hardly any difference.

Caliber 2 or Caliber 3, they are both amazing trucks, definitely worth the money.

These trucks are 10 inch wide from axle to axle.
