    Default Hooray for Choices

    Hooray for having choices in trucks! not that far in the past the only trucks that were easy to get were Randals, now thanks to MHM there are Force, Holey, Crail trucks, so no reason to get crappy Randals!

    better while you can, mark said this would be the last run due to the great deal of trouble it took getting them here. so unless you are looking to spend close to $100 and then have to worry about them actually making it to your location, its now or never.

    Fear not young padawan's, I know of inquiry's being made into another Vandal copy being imported by summer.(fingers crossed) The quality is not as good as Force trucks, but still better than Vandal's. (another Vandal copy)

    In fact 50 degree plates are already here..If I hear more I will post more.

    Crail's and Force Trucks though have the superior quality. You WILL get what you paid for.

    Depending on how quickly this shipment of Force trucks sells through, I may- or may-not place another order. It has nothing to do with Force, the quality of their trucks, or anything like that, it's strictly an issue of how much hassle it takes to get them into the US (as well as how costly it is to ship 100+ trucks from Down Under to Colorado).

    The folks who pre-paid were offered the option of splitting them. Currently, we're only offering them in matched pairs.

    Probably. Michael Stride (Octane Sports, UK) has commissioned his own solution to the "Randal issues" that begot the Holey: Taiwanese knock-offs that have perfectly aligned baseplate and kingpin holes. The producers also make them in a version without his logo on the baseplates. That may be what Mark is after, dunno...

    Photos of the trucks I'm talking about are tucked in the very back of the TS Challenge gallery and also in the ASR gallery.
