pros:
solid design
great all-around truck
easy to clean/maintain
decent price

cons:
bushings aren't great

these were my first trucks and learned with them. they have served me well and would gladly buy a new pair when i need to replace them. they've definitely held up. i've gone over my share of curbs, scraped them up, run over rocks and these things have taken quite a beating from a beginner longboarder.

if you're looking into buying these trucks, seriously consider the fact that you MIGHT want to invest in some new bushings. i love Khrio blues, they work good for me. if you're new to longboarding, you might want to consider buying a Khiro bushing kit so you can experiment to find what feels best for you.

as my title suggests, randals are a good, solid truck. you really can't go wrong with these even if you're a first timer or seasoned veteran. you'll find these trucks STANDARD on most completes, and there is a reason for that! these trucks are SOLID.

These are great multi-purpose trucks and i would reccomend them to beginners (like i was when i bought them) because they are very stable and give you a nice steady ride as well as the versatility to carve all at the same time.
Equipment Reviews
How long have you ridden them?: about 5 months
What Setup are you running them on?: S9 Nosewalker, abec 5 bearings, 76mm gumballs, stock yellow busings, no riser pads
Typical Discepline?: DH/carving/cruising
How much did you pay for them?: 5 bucks (they were an add on when i bought the board)
Where did you buy them?: Skatesonhaight
What are their weaknesses?: They can get wobbly if you do not have the correct footing when going above 30
What are their strengths?: i ride them extremly loose and they are still stable for light downhill, they allow me to carve and have great turns on my nosewalker
What similar equipment have you ridden?: Independent trucks (don't ask me the model i don't remember) they were great as well but almost no difference.
Would you recommend them?: Yes
