Now I know what you're thinking, "there's no way a hollow kingpin and axle is going to hold up the same way a solid one does." But let me tell you what, it really does. I've been skating a set since they came out, because I said the same thing, and I have not had one problem with them nor I have seen any come back to DLX.
The kingpins and axles are made of forged steel, which is actually much stronger than your average kingpin. I do not know the exact science behind this, but it's been explained to me a couple times and it completely makes sense. Something about 5000+ pounds of pressure is applied to the metal when they're forged and that makes them a lot stronger. Insane, right?
They are honestly the best trucks I've ever ridden (which sounds cheesy since I'm trying to sell them too...but they are!). Do yourself a favor and find out why Thunders are quickly becoming the #1 truck in skateshop!
You know who rides Thunder Trucks? Dennis Busenitz (from the video yesterday)!!
Call me with any questions or to get more info on the lights! Guys like Malto, Marc Johnson, Ellington, Chris Cole, etc... can't be wrong!
