So far, Boardnamics trucks got my attention. Still, I want to know if there is more high quality trucks out there for aggressive and heavy riders. After riding for a year… The axles is the weakest point for me. I have two electric skateboards where the wheel pulleys is now touching the motor mounts.lmao So far, Torqueboard and Mboards trucks failed for me.
Anyways, I want a brand that has great parts, able to carry more than 280 lbs, take impacts and stable at high speed. So far… Boardnamics is pretty much the only one I know, but I need test results on YouTube or something. For example: Torque-tension testing and hydraulic press test. I want to see if the trucks could carry madddd pounds. I’m tired spending money you feel me?
It’s often not as much about static load handling ability as it is about resistance to cycle fatigue. Almost any truck can take 135kg (300lb) once on a press. But repeated sidewalk cracks slowly eat away at the material’s integrity.
If you want stability at high speeds and money isn’t a factor, LaCroix hyper trucks, stooge raceboards 3 link trucks, and I heard good things about Juma skates up and coming trucks. If durability is your main concern, boardnamics trucks should work great and be decently stable as long as you’re not going ridiculous speeds. Plenty of other good truck options out there too. Honestly though, anything would be better then the rebranded Chinese trucks mboards and torqueboards have. I mean they work, until they don’t. Also, riptide bushings make a world of difference. The stiffer ones seem to be preferred for high speed stability.
Wait aren’t those channels ? Doesn’t sounds quite right with “stable at high speed” more about comfort and offroad.
Actualy, @Darkstar826 I asume you are talking about uretane wheels and street riding ?
Are you looking for something more stable at speed or more resistant to jumps, curbs and bad asphalt ?
Some of their motors are good and some are trash, the recent ones seems to be better since a year or so.
Electronic isn’t bad per se, it just totally lacks qc like most of low cost chinese business.
For trucks, well it’s a new thing that they make trucks, never seen any except their old copy of maytech’s copy of the matrix 1, and those were “meh” at best.
I’m not against flipsky, they have low prices, even the vx1 was good, you just need to be wary of not top motch quality.
I would not have argued against them on an other post, but here OP’s saying he eats great quality cnc trucks for breakfast, so it’s an extreme.
Yes, honestly bummed the rkp trucks have a max load of 120kg. And lol their channel trucks are certainly meh. I should not have suggested them howver if the load was higher I believe they could be a game changer for me.
Hoyt St UAV Trucks axles is made of Hardened stainless steel.
Boardnamics axles is made of 12.9g Alloy steel.
I read alloy steel is stronger.
For example:
“alloy steels have a higher tensile strength than stainless steel. While the tensile strength of stainless steel ranges from 515-827 MPa, that of alloy steels range from 758-1882 MPa.”
I’m trying to understand MPa. What is that? Anyone?
Just to make sure I understand correctly, do you mean you’ve only had the axle bend on you? Or has the hanger itself started to get warped too?
Asking because I’m a insane person who prefers messed up hangers but I don’t weigh enough or ride in a way that would ever cause damage to my hangers. I can’t help you find better trucks since at less than half your weight I never really need to worry about weight ratings. However I could potentially help you dispose of hangers you messed up
Even some generic Chinese trucks can hold up and still work after being run over by a mid sized American car our cars are all larger over here so around 3000 pounds or 1360 kg based on the first Google result for average weight
