Diamond Fingerboard trucks are re shaped trucks and perform very well. So I have been riding these trucks for what feels like forever, and I have been loving them. I haven't really seen much about these trucks so I decided to do a review.

First Impression: When I first got these, the shipping took a couple weeks, but to my knowledge I think they're from  a good distance from me.But out of the package they looked amazing nonetheless. They came with pivot cups and bushings and some stickers, which was really cool. They were about $20 with shipping, which made them pretty affordable for a professional look. 10/10

The Truck Itself: Well the trucks definitely look amazing imo. They are nice and rounded and slim, they are also about 30-31 mm  hangars which is also pretty nice. The only downfall with these trucks that I have noticed is that axles are allen key tuned, which they end up coming loose (but some glue will easily fix that). The kingpin is flush to the baseplate so you wont have to worry about that sticking out. The kingpin is also just a normal, standard screw on, no allen key required. 9/10

Performance: For the performance, I would have to say that they work amazing. The grind is really smooth, and that has been told to me by people who even ride black-river, and y-trucks. They are nice and light, which is what I like in a setup, so I'm a fan of that. Black-river wheels compatibility is something i'm unsure of. I just ride some homewood wheels, and they fit on the axle fine. Like I said, the axle is similar to the allen key trucks, so I would maybe test to see if the wheels can fit on those. 9/10

Overall: Overall, I'd have to say that these trucks are an affordable alternative to more expensive trucks, and perform beautifully. They provide a nice, smooth and solid grind and are very durable. I would recommend these to anyone looking for a nice and clean truck, but not so expensive. So for the price, and the performance, I would give Diamond 3.0 Trucks a 9.5/10

These are the axles I was talking about, they screw in, but they occasionally slip out. Glue fixed that for me.

Sorry for the bad pictures, they image upload kept re arranging my photos

But hope this little review helped some people, if you have any further questions, just ask!
And go check out Diamond here !

[Edit] I should mention that the deck is 33mm, and there is some space due to the trucks not being long enough.

As far as tuned td wides go, these don't look too bad.

Enjoy your purchase

Yeh, it's what I meant

k

nowt wrong with reshaped tdlbs! I wish I had more

$20 is a very steep for modded chinas (sorry dude), there are much better deals around.

Plus, imho, Allen key mods do not work. All the ones I've tried have come loose sooner or later (usually sooner).

The trucks are 15 but 20 with shipping, so yea I see what you mean with the prices. But I was looking at chemistry when I was getting these and they were more expensive for about the same thing.

About the allen key mods though, the axle kept slipping out so all I did was put a small drop of super glue on the hanger hole for it, and just screwed it back on. I left some space so the wheels and washers wouldnt get stuck and it worked perfectly. (and that was a month or so back)

These trucks are good for me right now at least, but I'm definitely trying to get some brt wides and overall a more professional set up

Any links to other companies that offer wide trucks? Other than ytrucks or br trucks. Any company offer handboard trucks?

If you're looking for a company that sells 32 mm hangers that are shaped and painted Roswell isn't that bad of an option really. As for handboard trucks I think Redemption is still working on them.
