Hi,
I'm just curious to know a little more information about Revo trucks. The D-Ex website doesn't tell you much about them... What are the pros/cons to
having them? How much do they weigh? Can you turn well with them? Does it matter what your deck tip angle is? And how much do they cost? Thinking of
redoing my board.
Thanks.
EDIT: Forgot to read kitedeck site. That helps a lot. (DUH) Some personal feedback would still be great.

To the best of my knowledge, Revo trucks are discontinued. If available, it's through the secondary market and most of them are on the UK side of the
pond (read shipping burn).
If you find some, they will not go cheap:
Factor in the fact that it might be a one time dance, when the elastomers or boots go, you are going to be hard pressed to find replacements.
ATB,
Sam

@dylan
I'm not getting rid of anything. I'm just curious. There are a million and one
custom board combinations, and I wanted to find out more about them. How could I resist? I love love love the Bionics though. I just put together a
board in my mind... 12 ply Trampa 15 deg short deck, titanium skate trucks, Hypa hubs, Trampa tires, grab handle, and Talon bindings... and that setup
weighs like 2.5 lbs. less than my Flight 93. I'm not ready to spend that kind of money for 2.5 lbs. less weight when what I have works just fine. I'm
sure it'd weigh damn near the same as my Flight if I used Revos instead.

Are they really? I didn't even know that. Everyone was foaming at the mouth over them. Why the discontinuation?
