The lower 43° baseplate turns less for the same lean, so it stays calm and planted at speed. It suits downhill, fast freeride and riders who want a confident, predictable board.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe V3 uses a new alloy forming process with true T6 heat treatment, a stronger redesigned hanger and a lighter, reinforced baseplate. Improved 90a conical bushings and 96a hand-poured pivot cups give a smooth lean and a clean return to centre. Ride height matches the 50° V3, so you can pair them for a split-angle setup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e43° baseplate:\u003c\/strong\u003e more stability and control at speed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e180mm hanger:\u003c\/strong\u003e suits most full-size longboards around 9\"–10\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eT6 heat-treated V3 alloy:\u003c\/strong\u003e stronger hanger, lighter reinforced baseplate\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eImproved 90a bushings:\u003c\/strong\u003e redesigned conical shape for smooth, even lean\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e96a hand-poured pivot cups:\u003c\/strong\u003e tight, slop-free pivot\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSplit-angle ready:\u003c\/strong\u003e same ride height as V3 50° for mix-and-match setups\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecs\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHanger width:\u003c\/strong\u003e 180mm (7\")\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAxle width:\u003c\/strong\u003e 245mm (9.6\")\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBaseplate angle:\u003c\/strong\u003e 43°\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAxle height:\u003c\/strong\u003e 65mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eKingpin:\u003c\/strong\u003e Reverse kingpin, SCM435 alloy steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAxle:\u003c\/strong\u003e SCM440 alloy steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBushings:\u003c\/strong\u003e Paris 90a conical\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePivot cups:\u003c\/strong\u003e 96a hand-poured urethane\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e About 462g per truck\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Polished\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBest for:\u003c\/strong\u003e Downhill, fast freeride, stable carving\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSold as:\u003c\/strong\u003e Pair (2 trucks)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat Size Board Does It Fit?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs a general rule, longboard trucks suit decks within about 1\/2\" either side of the axle width.

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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eToday 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFAQs\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat size board do the Paris V3 180mm 43° trucks fit?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nBoards about 9\" to 10\" wide. The 245mm (9.6\") axle lines up with the rails of most full-size longboards. For narrower decks under 9\", look at the 150mm or 165mm V3.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat's the difference between Paris V3 43° and 50°?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThe 43° turns less for the same lean, so it feels stable and planted when you're going fast, which suits downhill and fast freeride. The 50° is turnier and more lively for cruising and carving. Both share the same ride height, so many riders run 50° front and 43° rear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow tight should I set my Paris trucks?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nStart with the kingpin nut just snug so the bushings are lightly compressed, then ride and adjust a quarter turn at a time. Tighter feels more stable at speed; looser turns more. If you need to crank them right down, try harder bushings instead.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDo I need risers with Paris V3 180mm trucks?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nOn drop-through and most top-mount boards with wheel wells, wheels up to about 70mm usually run without risers. For bigger wheels (70–75mm+), a loose setup or decks without wheel wells, add a 1\/8\" to 1\/4\" riser to stop wheelbite.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDo these come as a pair?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nYes.
