They were some of the coolest looking trucks I have seen.
Come with the poorest bushings imaginable (but they look cool). Broken within 1 week off a 6 inch ollie. Ridiculous riser padding that almost makes you need to buy riser hardware, and makes your truck nuts easily fall off.
I have never wasted my time writing negative product reviews but, this is such an extreme case of a poor product I couldn't resist. I have never bought something in my life that looked so cool and performed so badly. In all defense to the board in question, I do weigh 220 lbs, and I do love my trucks extremely tight. Regardless of this, the biggest trick I did on these trucks was an ollie. Excuse my ignorance on the correct term but the round hole that the bushings sit on either side of was snapped in half. At the end of day 1 I had to replace the bushings (the softest I have ever seen), by the end of day three I had to peel off the ridiculous riser padding (because my truck nuts kept falling off). By day 7 or 8 they were broken and I was out 46 dollars. I can replace the hangar, or get an exchange for the exact same product but to be honest I don't even want anything that terrible on my skateboard at all. I had a pair of grind kings for 3 years and a pair of tensors for 6 months and had no problems out of either one (with the exception of the fact that I don't like using an Allen key to tighten my trucks on the GK's. Please don't waste your time and continue to let the manufacturers make money).
