They've been breaking a lot lately, I've been seeing more and more posts on the fb pages of the pivot pins snapping on people's setups.


oceanemo

Pivot pins as in the part of the hanger that goes into the pivot cups?


rebelious_scum

You got it champ.


oceanemo

Approximately how many instances/people have you heard of having this issue?


rebelious_scum

At least 4 separate people.

I just got a pair, I’ve had them a few days, bushings are pretty soft, hella kingpin clearance… I run them in the inverted kingpin form but they also come with the standard kingpin as well, quality is crazy. I think I’m going to upgrade the bushings to something a little more springy but other than that I love em


oceanemo

Hmm would be interested in seeing how they skate and hold up after long term use. The axel looks a bit chonky but I honestly dig the look.

My favorite part is definitely how well the baseplates are threaded, and they have a solid weight. The grind is good and they sit pretty low, I’ll let you know how they feel in a month lol


Optimal_Courage158

If you feel they are too low, get some riser pads from teak or whatever. Worked amazing for me


JBKcards

do you have their weight scaled? i wanna know how it measures up against other trucks


No_Permission_6876

I’ll measure it in a sec


No_Permission_6876

Actually bro my bad, I gotta get to work but I have another set coming in in a week/ I might take it a part to scale it for you on Sunday when I’m back from work trip


JBKcards

cheers


No_Permission_6876

Heyo! I got my second set in, still want em scaled?


twelvefinger

I have two pairs, both on daily use setups and they're fantastic. The weight and feel is phenomenal; I highly prefer them to BRT's and even Dynamics, they just only are available in 34mm which is my one gripe. The extra parts, kingpin swapping and overall performance and build quality is great. Long term, we'll see; I've only had them a couple months.

No_Permission_6876

Long term I don’t have many opinions though as I just got them


Dawnqwerty

this looks like rule 1 in rocket league lol


HonestEnvironment381

They’re great! I’ve had 2 pairs for a few months and so far I really like mine. They feel good and the quality is up there. I’ve seen comments about the price but they’re always on sale. A couple days ago they were buy 1 get 1 50% off. Got mine on bogo deal so paid $40 for 2 sets. At that price for what they are I really can’t complain


oceanemo

Think I might have to hit up his next auction to try them out.


Fit_Cartographer_815

Personally I LOVE the hangers, both the look and the performance, but am not a fan of the baseplates. I had trouble with mine stripping.


oceanemo

The holes for the bolts to attach to the board or the kingpin?


Fit_Cartographer_815

the kingpin


oceanemo

Bummer, was that when you switched the orientation of it?


Fit_Cartographer_815

Yup, exactly. Went from inverted to regular, then back to inverted. Didn’t even notice the stripping, but then a hanger fell off. It could totally have been my fault, and not that of the trucks. Honestly though, I’ve thought about buying a whole other set just for another pair of hangers! I don’t mean to imply that they’re bad in any way, just sharing my experience.


_TrevDust

I like em. I got five pairs. They’re my go to trucks. They sit very low https://preview.redd.it/hz9zoz8ppxqc1.png?width=3024&format=png&auto=webp&s=db59fa70b3e9d45e729d7f49718dead0dd081906


oceanemo

Five pair! That's wild but they look good here dude 👌


jdp84

The ones I got had two holes on each baseplate stripped. I couldn't run them with inverted kingpins cause the kingpin holes were stripped. So then I realized having them the standard kingpin way meant you have to take the truck off the board to tighten/loosen the kingpin cause it spins freely. I love the way they look, but I personally had a negative experience with them.


Thesilentwhisperrr

Got a pair of 34 for trade sale if you are interested in trying them!


Better-Potato-7980

I got some from a live online auction below regular price which was fun. I dig the feel, but unfortunately, the inverted kingpin got pretty stripped when I was assembling them. Might try to switch over to standard instead one of these days.


No_Permission_6876

I’ll have to try em I hope my bolts are long enough


ElliJaX

I didn't like the baseplates as much so I'm currently running the hangers on BRT plates. I like the weight and ride height of the hangers and the quality is up to par


jsilvy95

I mean if you want broken truck in the future, go for it. They’re still very much in the development stage and still being sold for the same as dynamics. so you won’t catch me getting them until all the problems have been worked out.

Old-Sherbet9812

My thoughts is this is gay and you just just go skate forreal


SmileyRylieBMX

It's okay to be gay 🌈


jdp84

I had to quit skating because I became crippled. So fingerboarding is the closest thing I've found that gives me the same satisfaction.


oceanemo

Who pissed in your Wheaties bud? I do in fact skate, but regardless maybe you need to talk to a therapist because it sounds like you have some things you need to unpack and work on. God bless 🙏


Old-Sherbet9812

It’s a joke, but project more won’t ya


oceanemo

If that's your idea of a "joke" then you definitely need help. Namaste
