Why buy Core Scooter Decks?
What headtube styles are used?
Core uses both extruded and forged headtubes. Forged headtubes are stronger because the metal is shaped under high pressure. Extruded headtubes are lighter but still durable. All headtubes are integrated, simplifying headset installation.
Do decks have boxed ends?
Some do. Core’s street decks feature boxed dropouts with welded inserts for grinding. Park decks may have angled dropouts to save weight. Choose based on whether you prioritise grinding surface or agility.
Are Core decks heat-treated?
Yes. The 6061-T6 aluminium is heat-treated for increased strength. This process aligns the metal’s grain structure, making it less susceptible to cracks and bends.
Which wheels fit?
Most Core decks accommodate 110 mm to 120 mm wheels. Some wider decks accept 125 mm wheels, but always check clearance for the brake or fender.
Can I mount any brake?
Core decks come with a flex brake or fender. Aftermarket brakes are available, but ensure they match the deck’s mounting holes and wheel size. Some riders switch to a fender to eliminate brake interference during tricks.
How much do Core decks weigh?
Weights vary. Park decks can weigh around 1.2–1.5 kg, while wider street decks weigh 1.6–2.0 kg. Light weight boosts agility; added weight provides stability for grinds.
Who should choose Core decks?
Riders seeking a balance of affordability and performance. Core decks are mid-range in price but use high-quality materials. They suit intermediate riders upgrading from entry-level setups.
