Details That Matter
- Inverted kingpin construction
- Mid height profile
- Polished finish
Who These Trucks Are For
These trucks suit skaters who want a mid profile setup for street skating, ledges, and general park riding, where the inverted kingpin design is built to hold up under repeated grinds and impacts. The polished finish also gives the trucks a clean, finished look on a built-out deck.
Setting Up and Maintaining Them
Mounting these trucks means matching the correct genuine hardware and tightening the kingpin nut to the rider's preferred turn feel, looser for more turn, tighter for more stability at speed. Check the kingpin nut and axle hardware periodically since regular grinding and impacts can work hardware loose over time, and clean grime off the polished finish with a soft cloth to keep the trucks looking sharp.
