Orangatang Nipples Bushings

The Nipples are the supportive over-achievers of the lineup: big, lively, and a little forward. They hold you up through every lean and spring you out of every carve like they’ve been waiting all day for the chance.

Poured in our Randy Thane formula, a high-rebound bushing urethane with energy to spare. Available in soft (orange), medium (purple), and hard (yellow) to match your weight and riding style.

Compatibility matters with bushings: the Nipples are designed for reverse-kingpin trucks such as Paris V2 and V3, Carver CX and C2, Tracker Fastrack, and Randal RKP. They are not intended for traditional-kingpin street trucks. Please check the measurements and compare with your current bushings before ordering.

Pack includes two tall barrel bushings, two short barrel bushings, and four thin and strong flat washers.

Nipples are NOT recommended for every truck on the market. They work great on Paris V2 and V3, Carver CX and C2, Tracker Fastrack, and Randal reverse-kingpin trucks.

They DO NOT work on any traditional kingpin (street) trucks, such as Independent trucks or Paris Street Trucks.

If your truck is not on this list it may not be compatible, so please check the measurements and compare with your current bushings.

In the standard configuration, the tall barrel (0.66″ / 16.8 mm with the Orangatang "g" logo) is placed on the bottom or board side and the short barrel (0.56″ / 14.2 mm with the "nipples" graphic) on the top or road side, with one of the included flat washers against each bushing.

Also try swapping them (short barrel board side, tall barrel road side) or running two talls or two shorts: trucks with deeper or shallower bushing seats often turn better one way than the other. Replace the included flat washers with large cup washers for a more restrictive turn that firms up at the end of the lean, or mix durometers (a softer bushing on one side, a harder one on the other) to fine-tune rebound and support.
