These are great all around trucks, I just wouldn't reccomend them for dowhill, on dropped decks, or with wedging. If you want to carve and cruise around with a smooth consistent turn, these are your trucks.
Equipment Reviews
How long have you ridden them?: 4 months
What Setup are you running them on?: Started on a Landyachtz Evo, then moved to a S9 wedge.
Typical Discepline?: Downhill, carving, cruising
How much did you pay for them?: $70
Where did you buy them?: Longboardskater.com
What are their weaknesses?: At around 30 mph, they start to feel unstable. They don't feel good with wedging or with dropped decks.
What are their strengths?: Very, very carvy, a smooth consistent turn, best non-precision stock set-up you can buy. The bushings are amaing, they take a month or two to break in. The hanger is compatible with many other trucks.

Great stock set up. Maybe the best out there
Equipment Reviews
How long have you ridden them?: 6 months or so?
What Setup are you running them on?: Fibreflex 38" w/ 76mm 78a Gumballs, Lucky swiss, Khiro risers, bolts and spacers AND a Sector bamboo pintail 46" w/ 86a Big Zigs, Lucky swiss, Khiro bolts risers and spacers
Typical Discepline?: cruising, carving
How much did you pay for them?: $30ish wholesale
Where did you buy them?: Southshore Distribution
What are their weaknesses?: They could have been polished but about an hour w/ a Dremmel tool fixes that. The whole hanger bottoming out on the top washer, but flipping the washer fixes that. Can't use after market bushings, pivots, or kingpins to tune the ride
What are their strengths?: Luckily the stock bushings, pivots and kingpins are really good. Super carvy. Hot looking when polished
What similar equipment have you ridden?: Paris, Revenge
Would you recommend them?: Yes

Polish them with wet&dry, it looks so much better. Also, use silicon grease on all moving parts (bushings etc.) it makes them glide through turns even more smoothly.!
Equipment Reviews
How long have you ridden them?: five months
What Setup are you running them on?: Dervish Flex2
Abec11 Pink BigZigs (75a , 76mm)
Red Bushings (holey of course)
Bones swiss laberinth bearings

Typical Discepline?: carving, crusing, dancing, sliding, and pumping
How much did you pay for them?: £40
Where did you buy them?: Apollo11shop.co.uk
What are their weaknesses?: The cup which holds the bushing in place restricts the movement of the truck, the solution is to flip the cup thing over.
What are their strengths?: They have an amazing feel to them, even when they are very loose there is still a gradually increasing resistance as you carve. They are very ajustable/ customisable. They look awsome too! I have polished mine to a mirror shine, it look soo good! especially because of the drop through section.
What similar equipment have you ridden?: randal R-II's
tracker

Would you recommend them?: Yes
