Update: The new Meepo Cyclone 110mm rubber wheels are 68A so the ride feel is more softer and it feels way better than the original 73A durometer

Ya but the range tho lol

I own 120 cloud , 110 cloud and the cyclone wheels. I prefer the 110 cloud over all, They feel a bit closer to a non electric skateboard wheels and roll smother. The 120 cloud feel dangerous at higher speeds because of the smaller amount of surface area touching the road. The cyclone absorb bumps better than the 110 cloud and are a little less wobbly at higher speeds by a small Margin, they grip better too. It feels like you need to constantly have your finger on the trigger with the cyclone wheels because of the resistance against rolling but with the clouds you roll much further once you stop accelerating which feels more fluid.

I own a Meepo Hurricane and also purchased the 110 mm Cyclone Wheels. Do you know if when you install the Cyclone Wheels, do you have to insert a black spacer between the inner and outer wheel bearings? I think they came with the wheels, but I am not sure if they need to be installed. Thanks for any help.

Currently working on my review of these wheels too, they're super heavy and suck up battery. Overall I found them less comfortable than both cloudwheels and the Onsra rubber. Not my favorite wheels ever Also, cloudwheels get grippier as you ride longer. Same with the Meepos, except they are rubber to begin with so the starting traction is higher. Maybe on wet pavement they'd be more slippery, but on dry, they're better once they're worn in.

When I rode the Cyclone wheels over cracks and terrible conditioned road to me it felt like the cyclone wheels take more of the impact. But yes I agree the Cloudwheels do get grippier when they’re worn out with more contact path however they’re really slippery on wet surfaces. And yes they are a range killer for sure lol the only benefits I could possibly see with the cyclone wheels are for racing or a drag races.

The threading doesn’t really make a difference honestly it’s not meant for off-roading.
