    There's definately a wider Randal coming.
    Indy measure the axle, the 215 - isn't...

    Really? I don't like when companies do that. It's very misleading...

    There are tracker 219's as well as original which makes original s8 (200mm) and s10(250mm).

    Neither is really a speedtruck though if that's what you are looking for. I think the trackers could be set up pretty well for DH if you dewedge the back a bit though. they are a bent pivot so they give a little bit slower, deeper carve rather than a faster initiating straight pivot (Indy's).

    edit: yeah the indy 215 is actually closer to a 180mm truck, the tracker 219's are actually 219mm hanger length.

    .....are they still slated to arrive by the end of this year? Or will this be like the mystery model
    Would you rather eat a hotdog that costs a dollar or a dollar that tastes like a hotdog?

    make your own. Get an old hanger, bang the axle out, stick a longer one in, add spacers.
    Easy.
    works really well. A friend did mine for me, they are great, although sometimes I wish I had asked for 190, 200 is perhaps a bit too wide.
