Colors Black
Truck Width 174mm, 190mm
Truck Axle Diameter 10mm
Truck Angle 20, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50 and 55 degrees

Designed to be super stable and provide maximum traction. The 10mm axle uses a 9/16ths nut so you only need one wrench for you trucks. In order to reduce as much unwanted play as possible within the truck, the Smokey uses spherical bearings at both pivot points. The two bearings work together to provide a ride with incomparable traction, responsiveness, and stability. The CNC baseplates are available in 20, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50 and 55 degrees making them ideal for high speeds as well as intense cornering. The precision CNC manufacturing process leaves the Smokey straight and true, not to mention looking completely badass. Available with JimZ speed bushings.

Landyachtz's mission for these trucks were to make a super stable truck. They succedded, but neglected turn. I personally right DH on cast trucks since I believe you can achieve stability with a good tuck, however turness comes from the truck.

 

Don't turn

These are for going fast and going fast only, they don't turn until you go above 40.
