Trucks and Kingpin issue?
«
on:
April 15, 2012, 08:45:20 AM »
for the last 5 years, the only trucks i've ever skated were the krux downlows because of the lowered kingpins. other brands ive looked at always had the kingpin sticking out over the bottom trucks. they would catch on 5050s and smiths of any sort would be impossible. does anyone know of other brands that don't have an elevated kingpin, or a possible way to switch them out? im looking to change brands, because krux are like impossible to find now, and the ones i'm riding, i've had for around 2 years now. thanks.

Theeves are generally mids. If they are hi or lo they are specified.

Krux Downlows are had to find because they are out of production and have been replaced by the newly launched
Krux Mahollows
. Any shop that carries NHS product will be able to get these in for you if they don't currently stock them.
