Good Points
+Lighter than most company names that are famous for light trucks
+Incredibly smooth ride in any situation, stairs have been awesome
+The great pop and flick I have come to know from Royal
+Mike Caroll says he's a picky bastard and they are all he rides now :)
Bad Points
-As stated by the previous reviewer they will grind down quicker than say a Grind King or Indy, but with a truck this light that performs this well it is worth the payoff
General Comments
Royal 4 Trucks are the best trucks ever. I just got back into skating and used to ride Royal Original Lows all the time, they were literally all I bought for several years until I quit. I was gonna get the Evo's or these and although I can't speak for the Evo's since I opted for the 4's, these are amazing!!!! Mike Caroll said their geometry combines the feel of a low with the performance of a high and after riding them for a couple weeks now I couldn't put it better. I have the amazing pop and flick I look for in a low and the control and stability of a mid or high. For how light they are they also seem incredibly strong, and so far have needed no adjustments after handling a few abusive skate sessions. Buy these featherlight badboys now.
