Flatspot Longboards – JimZ SpeedParts
We don’t make claims like this often. But we’re almost positive JimZ’s were the first precision downhill truck, ever. The best part: They are still awesome.
You might be wondering who JimZ is or why his SpeedParts are so special. Well, JimZ SpeedParts goes way back. They were rocking out before many brands today were even a twinkle in their founders eye. JimZ makes bushings, precision trucks, and has a pro-model kebbek board. Which is arguably one of their better boards.
JimZ trucks are unique because the hanger is two pieces that sandwhich the hanger. You can undue the pins and open them up for yourself to check them out. It also means that its fairly easy to change the axel out if it bends. Bending the axel on these is going to be rather difficult because its a 10mm hanger. This means you HAVE to use 10mm bearings. But fret not, we have 10mm bearings and will include a set with a purchase of the trucks.
They aren’t the lightest trucks on the market. But they are TANKS, will last you a lifetime, and are easily maintained.
