I DONT KNOW IF I SHOULD BUY ONE SOMETHIME
The decks are unique looking, and good performance. They're cheaper than bigger brands like Berlinwood/Yellowood, something like $30, I don't know exactly, but they're great, if you want something nice without spending too much money on a deck. Check some reviews on YouTube, or ask someone that has got/owned one, see if they agree. |

| Do BRT2.0's tunings soften as you use them. I bought a set of BRT and was kinda surprised the trucks were so tight and doesnt turn |

| also you could take off the washers. this may take away from the responsiveness of your turning but youll be able to get more range. |

| If you tighten them loads, like super tight, then loosen them again I found that it makes them a bit softer  |

| I tried setting up my roll9s on a friend's set of BRTs and it didnt work, maybe the new roll 9s changed something, or something different bout the berts. |

| roll 9s fit but the wheel slips, v6s work fine if you've got locknuts. |

| @Kerry: No issues with v6s as long as there is locknuts? That would make v6s a better choice

| New Question: I have an old set of BRT's that I don't use anymore, but I was thinking about putting them on a deck just to have another set up... Anyways the kingpin came loose on one of the trucks and just spins freely when I try to unscrew the nut. Any tips on what i can do. It won't tighten or loosen.. Btw I have to unscrew it so I can replace the hangar which is busted |

| take the kingpin out, and apply superglue to it, and put some in the baseplate hole as well. hopefully that can keep it from moving. if not, they have replacement baseplates on BRR if youre willing to spend the cash |

| I can't take the kingpin out though, because you have to take the king pin out from underneath, but the nut wont come off... |
