Bear Grizzly Gen 6 130mm 40° Trucks – Stability and Precision for Downhill & LDP
The Perfect Trucks for Speed, Control, and Efficiency
The Bear Grizzly Gen 6 130mm 40° Trucks are built for riders who demand stability, precision, and durability. Designed with a 40-degree baseplate and 130mm hanger, these trucks excel in downhill racing, long-distance pushing (LDP), and technical carving. Whether you’re bombing steep descents or covering miles on a pushboard, these trucks provide a controlled, responsive ride that enhances both stability and efficiency.
Key Features and Benefits
- Optimized for Speed and Stability – The 40° baseplate keeps you locked in at high speeds with a lower center of gravity and controlled turns.
- Ideal for Long-Distance Pushing (LDP) – The 130mm width reduces drag, making every push more efficient over long rides.
- Durable and Reliable Build – Precision-cast construction ensures these trucks hold up under extreme riding conditions.
- Smooth and Predictable Turning – The refined geometry provides a controlled, consistent carve without feeling twitchy.
- Customizable Setup – Compatible with aftermarket bushings and pivot cups, allowing riders to fine-tune their responsiveness.
How Do They Feel Compared to 50° Trucks?
When mixed with Bear Grizzly 50° trucks, you get a unique split-angle setup that enhances control and carving ability:
- 40° Front / 40° Rear – A fully downhill-focused setup that maximizes stability. This combination keeps your board locked in at high speeds with a predictable, controlled turn response. Ideal for racing or high-speed freeride where precision is key.
- 50° Front / 40° Rear – A balanced setup for riders who want both deep carves and high-speed stability. The 50° front truck allows for more maneuverability, while the 40° rear truck anchors the board, reducing speed wobbles. This is a great option for freeride, long-distance pushing, or aggressive carving.
- 50° Front / 50° Rear – More agile and surfy, great for cruising and freestyle but less stable at high speeds compared to a 40° setup.
Review – How Do They Ride?
The Bear Grizzly Gen 6 130mm 40° Trucks offer a noticeably more stable and controlled feel compared to their 50° counterparts. Riders who prefer speed-focused setups will appreciate how these trucks reduce twitchiness and allow for deeper, more controlled leans.
Pros:
- Superior stability for downhill and high-speed freeride
- Efficient push mechanics for LDP and distance skating
- Predictable turning with no sudden oversteer
- Built to last with a strong, precision-cast design
Cons:
- Less agile than a 50° setup for low-speed carving
- May require some adjustment for riders used to looser trucks
Who Should Ride These Trucks?
- Downhill Riders – Perfect for those who need maximum stability at speed and confidence in deep turns.
- LDP & Pushboard Skaters – The 130mm width reduces rolling resistance, making each push more efficient.
- Freeriders & Carvers – Works great in a split setup with a 50° front truck for a versatile ride.
Final Verdict – Are These Trucks Worth It?
For anyone looking for stability, efficiency, and control, the Bear Grizzly Gen 6 130mm 40° Trucks are an excellent choice. Whether you’re hitting high-speed downhill runs, logging miles on an LDP setup, or fine-tuning your freeride game, these trucks provide the precision and performance needed to elevate your ride.

Changing delivery address while your order is in transit – if you decide to change the delivery address after the delivery service was confirmed and the information was entered into the system, a redirection will lead to a different delivery time and therefore, a delayed delivery. Note that even if the new address is very close to the initial one, the information still has to be changed and the package re-labelled, which can lead to a change in the delivery date as well. In such cases, it would usually be quicker for the delivery to fail then pick up the order from the local depot in the evening of the due date.
Almost all deliveries will take place as scheduled. However, certain issues may be out of our control resulting in possible delays. Due to this, we advise against taking time off daily routines, such as work, to avoid any issues. An order can be placed to go to a business address if needed.
