CNC'd and Proformance DH Trucks

I used to ride mine dropped through on my CLB Double-D. I took it to some big hills, but anything with a sharp turn i would sometimes overdrift or get highsided and fall. I topmounted them for better grip and they feel awesome.

Yes, it can be done, but you sacrifice grip.

What the BLEEP are these?! I found them while searching for pictures of Maguns.

oh and does anyone have some good pictures on maguns? I'm looking to CNC my own baseplates and hangers at my university and I'm gathering ideas from everywhere for my design.

Those are PVD's I love mine!! They are by far the most advanced truck ,and grip like no other as a rear slalom truck!! Peter Verdone made very limited numbers and hasn't made any new ones in a few years!

One day while trawling the internet for pictures of PVDs, i saw a picture of a wide set of pvds on a luge or buttboard. the would be awesome for downhill

Like Radikals Peter made different length axles. I have all the lengths, but the downhill.

Maguns have a 200mm hanger, not axle. And I tghought they were flippable

And a good pic

+ there's a difference between the front and reartruck

Whats the difference? I'm trying to design my own trucks and I'm doing my research.

The axles thread in different front and back so as not to twist out from normal riding use. Every axle is either threaded forward or backward so as to make it impossible for the turning of the wheels in the forward direction to unscrew your axles.

oh magun axles screw in and out?

Maguns can be flipped. I have tried it and ridden them like that
It's very strange but not necessarily bad.

Sounds like the left side is left hand threaded?
