| this morning in the post I got some FBUK blue laser ingraved trucks and they are amazing as soon as I opened my package from them I opened the trucks and put them strait on a board and they are amazing they are so smooth to ride and in my opinion the best trucks ive had yet. the design on them are amazing quality and so is the paint work of them. in my opinion they are best when they are half and half (loose and tight) because it gives that extra bit of pop when you are doing tricks. all the colours match. like mine I got the blue ones with black base plates and they are such a good combination. please go and check them out they are so friendly and such a good company I also have one of there decks and it is amazing to ride, the quality of the products that come out of the shop is amazing. go and check out FBUK (website below) www.fingerboardsuk.com |

| yup, all china. he might laser engrave the logo onto the already made product, but he doesn't make them himself. There's a reason why the trucks are so cheap.. probably made by a 8 year olds hands in china. |

| Not if everyone ignores them!
More seriously, the rebadging of China products is one of the most deplorable things in fingerboarding, taking potential revenue away from artisan manufacturers like BRR or Ytrucks and miselling substandard kit to the less discerning/newcomers.
Suggest you either knowingly buy China, pay the going rate and accept what it is or invest in one the premium suppliers rather than give these duplicitous bastards another penny of your money Godwinfingerboarder. |

| I started fingerboarding a few months ago, and I bought one of their completes not knowing anything about them being Chinese manufactured, and how supporting these companies wasn't a good thing in the community, they do have a range that they claim are made in their own molds here in the UK, but someone here said that it's not true and that they are still China decks.
The trucks are just painted 29mm China trucks with o ring bushings and washers, and the wheels that came with mine are grim.
And the guy who suggested to go on Aliexpress is right, you can bulk buy the bearing wheels and trucks say 400 sets of wheels which works out around 20p a set, yet FBUK sell them for £6.99 or thereabouts.

| Yeah it sucks that the new people in fingerboarding have no idea.. that some assshole with his logo slapped on china turds is ripping you off.

| I know now. Edit: you say these are the best trucks you've owned, so you're saying they're better than the Y Trucks it says you have below your avatar???! :/ |
