Ditto everything that’s been said about dualities.
I’m biased, but this is true. I didn’t know how awesome your decks were/are until @Titoxd1000 brought one out to track with his trucks.
Hypertrucks are the weakest point of Lacroix boards imo.
- the brass/plasic pivot bushing wears often, requiring replacements (and that frequently aren’t easily available/provided out of the box)
- the shoulder bolt requires fine tuning with washers to avoid squishing the pivot bushings. @fessyfoo knows more then I do about this
- every board shipped with the hardest bushings (at least a couple years ago). I actually originally really disliked hypertrucks when I was joining the scene- every board I tried felt like a cargo ship. This leads to riders running them with nearly no preload (so they can turn), causing the board to have no defined center.
- wedge bushing designs aren’t ideal, because they act like lean stoppers, preventing large deck angles. This is why the singularity bushing is so great, and another advantage of dualities
