too expensive unless you buy them used, but they're great trucks for DH and high speed carving. Sphericals are a weird beast to get used to but they feel great once you do.

Equipment Reviews

How long have you ridden them?: 3 months
What Setup are you running them on?: XL Voodoo, Venom bushings and Orangatang 4Presidents. also used on an 09 Hellcat with similar components.
Typical Discepline?: DH
How much did you pay for them?: 200 used
Where did you buy them?: silverfish classifieds
What are their weaknesses?: Not very turny, even topmounted. Cleaning them is a bit more of a task because of the sphericals. Rough ride, especially on bad pavement, because of all the metal to metal contacts.
What are their strengths?: Super stable, strong 10mm axles, completely different ride from cast trucks
What similar equipment have you ridden?: no other precision trucks
Would you recommend them?: Yes
