| ^With locknuts, and different bushings, I don't really feel a difference between BRT's and china wides. Except in my bank account. |

| i dont believe that the chemistry trucks come with any hardware. from what i read on the site it looks like u would have to buy screws, locknuts and bushing |

| I dont think their worth the money, but still really good trucks.
I recommend woodywood since their like $40, and they look nice. |

| I don't think they're worth the money but no doubt nice trucks. I don't get how people always break them though.. they are solid trucks. The plus side to them is they look much nicer than standard china wides, etc. 10/10 quality but I see no noticeable difference from china wides, even with brt ed wheels. I can be blind folded and not even tell if I'm using a deck with brts or china wides. |

| Whereas I feel that the whole concept of "professional" fingerboard trucks to be an unnecessary racket, I do experience a night and day difference between my set ups with tuned chinas and those with BRTs and Ys. I find the performance differences between BRTs and Y-Trucks to be very slight.
I am yet to get a pair of Woodys, but I keep hearing great things about them. |

| How many of these threads have there been already? Lol
But I personally think brt's are amazing. I can feel the difference between them and the china wides that are on my two setups. Brt's grind better, and brt Ed wheels roll faster on them then most regular wheels do on my chinas. Not to mention that they also look pretty badass.
However, I don't think they're worth $65. If I do get them, I just buy them used but in good condition. |
