I agree with most of the posts here. The wheels are slow but grippy. The reason they are so slow is two-fold. One, the wheels are way heavy and the stock bearings suck. I replaced both. Reds with ABEC 78A's and now I go way too fast!!!!

I had the board for less than two weeks and the trucks broke on me. Before that I had to take them apart completely once because the adjusting arm froze up on me. After greasing everything up I went for a days run and by the end they were frozen again [Poor Design].

Finally I bailed on a corner and my board kept going. Trucks hit a curb and snapped the adjusting arm in half. I'll post pics later.

I was so pissed I ordered the new c2's and shot of a nasty e-mail to Ben [Manager of Grom Biz]. Still haven't recieved my C2's or heard back from Ben.

Look out for another post from me about the C2's and with pics.

its true the wheels are slow , but with buying any standard complete deck theres always things you wanna change . Sucks to hear you had some troubles with em , ive been skating mine everyday for the last 2 months and no problems whatsoever. i opted for the axle upgrade and also had no problems, everything is working fine , and is quiet stable with all the bushings in tight , i wacked em on an evo with 83mm ,81a flywheels and swiss bones super 6's, think ive created a monster haha . im thinke only got it up to about 80kms so far and its stable as i love it . also i actually kept the front springs on so when im in town i just take out the front bushings so i can easily carve around everyone in the street.

yeah its all cool if u got the axle upgrage and paid another 66$ on top of the 250 for what is really not a prescsion truck
but if u don't u cant actually change the wheel, the axle is to small

must be magick then or im just lucky , cause the 1st thing i did when i got the scriber standard was replace the wheels with kryptonics and new bearings , i had no problems.... may i ask what you mean " not a precision truck" (not being smart , just trying to clarify what you mean ? cheers...

He means that it's a cast truck, not CNC'd from a solid block of hi-grade aluminium - like kahas, smokies, kookies etc.

sorry i forgot to mention , dont use the original nut it cam with it has too many threads and hangs off the end of the axle when used with other wheels/bearings, i got some other nuts from the skateshop .

Anyone had any experience with the C11 Scriber??
Apparently it's built so you CANT get speed wobbles, even at 90Ks
Grom Biz Pty Ltd C11 Scriber
Worth checking out just for a look. Think I might grab some.
Opinions??

By far the best ride out there. Started with a c11 then upgrades to c2 and couldn't be happier. The fact that it is so versitile is a plus. I get folks braggin about theer sidewinder trucks or how sharp they can turn for slolomn(sp?) then I do a quick adjust and I've got a better set up than anyone talkin crap. That is, after you change the wheels and bearings, they are terribly slow but way grippy.

Can anyone with the scriber tell me what a good setting is for around 40 km. I'm headed to a garage tonight but I haven't taken them but pushing speed for cruising. I'm running reds and purple tangs with the stock board.

Buying one of those bloody things was the worst purchase i have ever made, took me about 2 months to sell it off to someone too.
