They are light, like most bushing trucks but have a nice ride feel. The bushing seat feels as if it fits the bushings perfectly so with a setup like 81a and 85a super carves for 140pound bloke like me, has the carve to cruise with but the resistance for speed. I have hit 50km.h with this setup and still carve on it like a dream.
They are long lasting, having had them for about 6 months and the guy i bought them of before had them for about a year. I have done hundreds of early grabs and tricks, and they haven't bent on me whatsoever. The base plate can be bought in 3 options, 35 degree, 42 degree or 50 degree. The lower the degree the more stable they will be at speeds and generally less carvy. Keep in mind the lower you go the more chance of wheel bite.
Highly recommend these trucks for freestyle/cruising trucks and all round performance for beginners to longboarding or bushing trucks.
I'd give these trucks a 4/5 for performance and a 3.5/5 for general looks.

Personally, i am not the biggest fan of these trucks. Don't get me wrong, they are great, but not for my style of riding. The one flaw i see with them is the bushing seat. It is very weird, to say the least. And they trucks only feel nice when loose, so when you tighten them down, they don't feel very good. But the thing that is very good about them is that they are very solid. i don't think they are ever going to bend. Overall, if your looking for a truck that will last forever, and you want to use it for free ride, cruising and carving, by all means, get these trucks. 3/5 for performance, and 3.5/5 for looks.
