Thunder Polished Inverted Skateboard Trucks
They did a really nice job with this one. Bit more grind clearance with the inverted kingpin. The bushings may start out quite soft for some who skate a tighter trucks, but they hardened up after a few hours. I have not noticed the kingpin loosening up after riding for several sessions now. Otherwise, everything great you get for a typical Thunder truck!
thunder trucks rule. and i always wanted to try an inverted king pin. i can’t say alot just yet as i broke my leg months ago. but they look great. thers rely a lot of room now from the truck to the kingpin to get on wich is rad.
pretty cool. i ride thunder titanium’s but always wanted the inverted king pin. but thunder didn’t have them. so even tho ther not titanium when i saw them i gave in. now the inverted pin is hollow so if i put one of my titanium hangers on it wich just the axel is titanium but if i swap that i can have titanium inverted. i may do just that. Rad trux. thunder titanium other then the tensor mags are one of the lightest trux made. and ther strong tho. tensors i tried. didn’t feel hard
