|
|
Hey, I have a set of Tensors right now, and they're not bad, except that the kingpin dealie is kind of high up and gets caught on concrete ledges and such. I was just wondering if there is any lower profile truck that has a better kingpin placement. I'm not too picky, just something for a decent price that will work well. |

there are tensor "highs" which will not catch on ledges but i found them to be a little awkward to ride _________________

lows are gonna have a higher kingpin. The best trucks for the money right now are Thunders, they have a nice low kingpin too. |

iloveareed has these silver trucks and I have been riding them lately to help break them in and they have these crazy upsidedown kingpins. Makes it a pain to adjust the trucks evenly but I guess its not as obtrusive.
but, I like my thunders way better. |
