These are great trucks, great first buy.
Equipment Reviews

180 Randals
Reds Bones
Big Zigs

Typical Discepline?: Cruising, Sliding, Slalom
How much did you pay for them?: 40
Where did you buy them?: Core Board Shop

You have to have a good balance going at speeds higher than 20-25 to maintain a good ride without speed wobble.
When I did get speed wobble, it was pretty bad, for these trucks.

What are their strengths?: Looks great
Carves GREAT
Dependable
Easy to maintain

Used Bennets for my mini though.

If you want a good truck that is both stable and carvy, get Randal's. They are cheap, durable, can handle most things you at it. I've been running them for almost a year, and they've been flawless.
Equipment Reviews
How long have you ridden them?: 11 months
What Setup are you running them on?: Sector 9 Nosewalker, Khiro red barrel (90a) on the bottom and Randal bottom yellow's on top, Bones Reds and 84a gumballs.
Typical Discepline?: Cruising, Carving, Light DH and light lugeing
How much did you pay for them?: $40
Where did you buy them?: skatesonhaight.com
What are their weaknesses?: The older ones (the ones I have) aren't casted that beautifully and their bushings seats aren't the greatest and the kingpin sucks (its head is very small and its hard to get a grip on it).
What are their strengths?: They are an excellent all around truck that are ready to carve with stock and are plenty of fun to ride. They are agile and can handle many things that you throw at it.
What similar equipment have you ridden?: Grizzlies, Paris 180's.
Would you recommend them?: Yes
