[PVD] the high cost of fast living...

$200 for a single truck is a lot of money. I have tried to keep the cost of my trucks as low as possible but I have not compromised in quality or design. These are truly high performance items.
One way you can justify buying these trucks it the modular design.
1. Different axle and hanger widths can be purchase separately to make wider trucks.
2. Any of 9 stock angle plates (20-60, every 5 degrees) can be purchased at about $15 per truck to experiment with new setups. I will produce prints at no cost to those who would like to cut their own.
3. The standard truck height is 2" from the center of the axle to the deck side of the base plate. Custom angle plates allow this dimension to be 2.25 or 2.50 for use on downhill or drop through setups.
Taking these points into account, these trucks start looking very affordable for the serious racer.
