if the thunders are 8.5 and thunders and venture are both made by deluxe does it not make more sense to have a truck in between 8 and 8.5 seeing as they is a massive call for it. and venture has in my eyes been a more tech/street skater truck.

indy 149's use to be a 8.25 and they had a 159 wich was an 8.5 i do believe. they cut that a while ago though

This has me cracking up, what exactly does Black Flag have to do with measuring your dick starting behind ya nuts?

Skateboarding is nothing but a game to find the right fits to appear like you're a proportional human being instead of a midget or a giant.

i'd like to know the exact width of venture 5.2s.

or any truck really, the width of skateboard trucks is on some bilderberg seating plan type bullshit.

The number they're giving is the width of the hangar. Indy 139's = 139mm-wide hangar. Venture 5.2's have a 5.2-inch wide hangar, which is a little less than 139mm.

I know, but still.. Why dont they just dont tell the exact size of the whole truck, it would make everything a lot easier.

every truck company has three different sized trucks.
with venture for instance its

5.0
5.2
5.8

thunder is

145
147
149

it matches up perfect with every board brands main sizing.

7.75
8.00
8.25

just match em up.
its not that hard.
when it comes to those weird in between sizes it's just a matter wether or not you like your trucks to stick out or in.
personal preference.
easy.
blah

Indy 149's are 8.25.
Thunder and Theeve also make trucks to fit 8.25 boards, and so do Destructo.

Can't seem to find them online and my shop doesn't have them. Not even sure if they'll get them.
