Apex Scooter Decks

Apex uses 6082 aluminium with precision CNC machining for the headtube and extrusion for the deck. This combination provides a tough structure that handles heavy landings and grinds while remaining relatively light. The headtube welds are done by hand and heat-treated for extra durability.

The classic Apex 4 deck measures 4.5 inches wide and 19.5 inches long, aimed at park riders. Apex also offers wider models (5.0–5.5 inches) with lengths up to 21 inches, giving street riders more foot space and stability.

Most Apex decks feature angled or tapered dropouts that reduce weight and promote clean landings. Street editions offer slightly flatter dropouts for improved grinding. The latest models incorporate removable dropout inserts so you can replace worn ends without buying a new deck.

Apex decks generally fit wheels up to 110 mm. Some models can handle 120 mm wheels, but always check brake clearance and fork compatibility. Their tight wheel cutouts ensure foot safety and maintain a sleek profile.

Apex decks usually have an 82.5° headtube angle, providing quick, responsive steering for park tricks. This angle helps riders whip and spin the deck efficiently while offering stability during manuals.

Yes. The 4.5″ model weighs around 1.2 kg, thanks to CNC-machined features and careful material removal. Wider street models weigh more (around 1.5 kg) due to added surface area. The weight savings make a noticeable difference in park tricks.

Inspect welds regularly, particularly near the headtube and dropouts. Keep bolts tight, check the brake’s wear and avoid riding in wet conditions that may corrode aluminium. Clean the deck after street sessions to remove grit that might scratch the finish.

Apex decks command a premium, reflecting the hand-built construction and precision engineering. Riders who want a deck that performs at the highest level and supports pro progression will find them worth the investment.
