| ^lol quite grant.
Got mine, seen how shit others have found them, not even gonna use them on my brr 2.0s. BRR normal bushings are lush imo. Gonna use mine with inverted kingpins on china wides that will go on my oldschool, becaues that'll be loose, and not used much.
They need to be a sturdier material : o |

I don't believe he's "Moaning" about anything, his bushings he spent $8 on and they broke. He's not sitting there whining about it, he's informing us. |

| ^well said. I think these bushings really are a rip off, seems if you don't like trucks so loose that you glue on your nut, and they just tickle the bushings, then they'll die. No product should do this, especially on loose trucks, and people shouldn't defend them. 5 euros for them to do this is wrong imo. Stick to brr normals, or brr tkys. I'm just gonna rep brr normal ones though, had mine for over a year and they're perfect, shall keep the normal ones in my brr 2.0s too |

| Fuck off Toebox.. It's a fingerboard forum, i'd get your point if it was on a different forum. If you don't want to hear about fingerboarding and problems with products get the fuck off. |

Didn't really ask your opinion. But his post was irrelevant to the whole thread, and he talks about other people whining but yet since he has been on here he has been crying and moaning about wanting to leave and people not liking him. Plus he is super cocky about his videos and shit and he supports the worse company possible. I just think he is stupid. Like the 3-4 useless threads he has posted in fingerboard discussion when they really aren't a discussion at all. and OBF that is the problem.. The washers are like casted inward and they eat through the material of the bushing.. No matter how lose or whatever the hanger is. |

| get the tkys grant, if you like looser than the standard brr bushings tkys are great, but just make sure you use them with the original pivot in the brr baseplate and not the blue pivot cup...although i think brr have taken out the pivot pieces in the new stocks being sold???
i really like my tkys, they are good and work well, and ive not had any problems with mine...the only problem is that the hanger pops out from the pivot, but thats only if you use the blue pivot.....stick to the original white pivot in the base and they work great |
