My 10 year old rides the backfire electric skateboard, we replaced it's original wheels with the baby blue cloud wheels last weekend. She noticed the difference immediately. She said it's so much more of a smoother ride. And it's easier for her to go over rough asphalt, side walk cracks and small gravel. The fact it made her feel more stable and safe on the bored was worth the cost of the wheels.

Dampens vibration, stops feet from going numb on long rides - can easily handle small stones and branches - best for long commutes.

AWESOME product. easy to install. love working with Backfire USA. They take the time to match you with the right product for your application

A much needed upgrade over the standard wheels, greatly reduced felt vibration and increased ride enjoyment.

I like the wheels very much. I was glad they came with bearings and screws. It was disappointing that it did not include any Truck spacers. First time I rode the wheels bed and knocked me off the skateboard. I had to buy spacers to raise the board versus the factory wheels on my backfire mini.

lots of fun and power

I got these for a galaxy. They are big and cool but the deficit they create in torque on this particular board along with the range lost makes them not a great choice for a 10s board. In turbo the torque is ok but range suffers drastically. For a galaxy or any other 10s battery board id say stick with the 97mm wheels

Wheels are smooth and look awesome. Easy to install

Changes the ride for the better definitely! Gives you more confidence while carving at higher speeds. I'm dropped a star because I have used them for about a month and they have worn very quick especially in the back. The nature of the hub motors heating up adds to quicker wear. For 140 dollars I most likely will put my original wheels on after the cloud wheels wear out. I ride daily and am a heavier rider at 225 lbs.

I was a little skeptical about cloud wheels but I am so glad I bought them. A lot of reviews I came across said the grip wasn't that great and the durability wasn't so hot but I haven't had any issues with any of that. In fact I think it felt better while carving and did increase the top speed a bit. It lowered my range slightly but not too much of an issue. Installation was a breeze.
Overall, super glad I got em. Thanks Backfire!

I love them, so much less vibration when I’m hitting boarded trails or rougher paved roads. These wheels have made riding even more enjoyable

These wheels are game-changers. So incredibly smooth on crappy asphalt, and they demolish acorns, small rocks, sticks, etc. You won't regret this purchase! They are a challenge to put on since they are a snug fit. You must line the screw holes up perfectly the 1st time or you'll have to reseat the wheel. I suggest a small piece of wood and a rubber mallet so when the holes are lined up you can 'hammer' the center of the wood and have the wheel slide on easily and evenly.

LOVE the light blue cloud wheels with the Backfire G3!!! I just went 5 miles today with my wife and daughter on their bikes. We had a blast!
30 miles total so far. I can ride on the sidewalk when needed. On the road, the carving and feel was really nice!!! For super super smooth roads, I still prefer the original G3 wheels. For sidewalks and rougher asphalt roads, Cloud wheels all day!

Straight up game changer. If you're looking for a good slide wheel these aren't it but these have an insane amount of traction which I like for higher speeds. Worth it.

Superb G3 now fitted with backfire cloud wheel. Dramatically changes the board on rougher surfaces. Would highly recommend the cloud wheels. Board has great flex and I am nearly 100Kg and still boarding age 59. Never stop pushing the boundaries.

Very smooth ride, more confident at higher speeds and I believe they go a little faster than the 96mm, however I got around 13 miles if range instead of a usual 18-20 miles. Nice wheels for woody areas, festivals, ect.

These wheels are a game changer for the mini. The bigger softer iclouds give it a smoother ride with significantly less vibration I love them. They were a bit expensive yet they were worth it. You get what you pay for.

I was skeptical about these wheels because of the price but they are very nice wheels and high quality. The wheeels do a really good job getting rid of vibrations and makes the ride much smoother. highly recommend

Installed on my black, it roughly eliminated 60% of the vibration. For me it's a new board now, perfect for riding on the paved road and the side walk.
Marco A.
Installed cloudwheels in my mini , its a completely different board now , all vibration from rough pavement is gone .
