Hey Jon,
Weā€™re going to be distributing boardnamics hangers in the EU. Our delivery will come in at the same time as the US one, but weā€™re based in the UK. We will also supply baseplates, hangers and kingpins as a completed truck set if thatā€™s what youā€™re looking for

Regards,
Ben from Nexusboards.co.uk

For an EU customer, yes. Not for a US one though

I totally forgot about your shop, just to confirm you actually have UK stock and ship from UK?

#26

I have all stock in my crappy uni apartment and I live right next to the post depot, so all orders before about 4.45pm get shipped and arrive on the next day and I can even dispatch on sundays.

I also make all the remotes and CNC stuff in my apartment, and nothing I sell is drop-shipped or in a Chinese warehouse. All VAT/taxes are included and I make no profit on shipping, so the rates are very fair especially for UK orders, most go under 4 GBP for shipping.

Thatā€™s awesome. Good to know for EU-buyers!

Kingpings are a standard size for rkp trucks. Bushings and pivot cups you can get from anyone in the UK that stocks riptide as they are probably the best bushing and pivot cups available.

Will you also have some of the 184mm ones ?

#30

Nope, as its just our first order we didnā€™t want to stock the 184s quite yet. But in the next batch, depending on how many 220s go weā€™ll see :slight_smile:

It really shouldnā€™t happen, I undid everything and set them at a different angle, hopefully they hold

Same has happened to me on TB mount too. Thatā€™s the problem with smooth surfaces. I solved it by lightly sanding the mating surfaces.

I tighten the death out of mine and they hold for a bit. Iā€™d jb weld them but donā€™t wanna mess with it. I think mounts with holes instead of cutouts would be neat.

If you are talking about mounts being bolt on to trucks +1 to you.

If not please clarify
