SOLD INDIVIDUALLY — MOST SETUPS REQUIRE TWO
Pivot cups are the single most critical interface in a truck system. They define the axis the hanger rotates around — and therefore define how the entire system feels.
Core Function: Pivot cups control axis fidelity, steering response, and system stability.
This is where Riot started — and why the industry began paying attention to pivot detail in the first place.
The pivot interface is responsible for keeping the hanger constrained to its intended axis while allowing smooth, controlled articulation.
- Too Loose: Uncertainty, twitch, random movement, poor feedback
- Too Tight: Stick-slip behavior, delayed response, fights turn and return-to-center
Both conditions degrade control — just in different ways.
Instability at the pivot interface compounds quickly and can contribute directly to oscillations at speed.
