Paris Street Trucks Matte Black | 149mm

Paris Street Trucks Matte Black | 149mm

Paris turn, street-truck feel. Taller for bigger wheels.

Paris Street Trucks bring Paris's smooth, predictable turn to a traditional kingpin truck. This is the 149mm size in Matte Black, built for street, park and cruiser boards. They fit everything from mini cruisers to big double-kick boards across the range.

They're gravity cast from 356.2 virgin aluminium with a secondary heat treatment, faced hangers, Grade 8 steel axles and branded kingpins. A taller profile than a standard street truck (57.15mm axle height) gives more clearance for softer, bigger wheels and less wheelbite, while 93a Paris bushings keep the turn lively but controlled.

What Size Board Does It Fit?

Paris Street trucks are named by hanger width. The three full-size options are below (there is also a 108mm mini size for 6"–7" boards). Board ranges are Paris's own recommendations.

The taller 57mm axle height gives extra wheel clearance, so these suit cruisers and wider boards running bigger wheels.

About Paris Truck Co.

Paris Truck Co. started in California in the mid-2000s, building precision longboard trucks at a time when riders had few good options. Its reverse-kingpin V-series trucks quickly became a go-to for carving, freeride and downhill, and the V3 is the latest evolution of that design.

Today Paris is known for smooth, predictable turn, strong cast hangers and a huge colour range, plus the Street truck for skaters who want that same feel on a traditional kingpin. Riders choose Paris because the trucks do exactly what they should, every session, without needing to be babied.

FAQs

What size board do the Paris Street 149mm trucks fit?
Boards about 8" to 9" wide. The 8.5" axle lines up with the edges of decks in that range. For other widths, Paris Street also comes in 129mm (7"–8") or 169mm (9"–10").

Are Paris Street trucks high or low?
They're on the high side. The 57.15mm axle height is taller than most standard street trucks, which gives more room for bigger, softer wheels and more leverage when turning. If you only skate small hard wheels, a mid or low truck sits you closer to the ground.

Do I need risers with Paris Street trucks?
With wheels up to about 56mm, most boards need no risers. From about 56–60mm, or if you like your trucks loose, a 1/8" riser helps. Big cruiser wheels (60mm+) on decks without wheel wells may need 1/4".

How tight should I set them?
Start just snug and adjust a quarter turn at a time. Tighter feels stable for landings and speed, looser turns and carves more. Paris 93a bushings break in after a few sessions, so recheck after your first rides.

Do they come as a pair?
Yes. You get two trucks, enough for one board. Hardware, wheels and bearings are sold separately.
