30 Euros each

It's 30 Euros (no bucks) each, without postage.

(I doubt you get a pair of these truck tuned in the same way as mine for only 45 Euros.)

Boyd, those from Sickboards are ordinary Trackers and don't come with 8mm axles as mine do.

Let me explain for you:
Bearings fit more properly on 8mm axles. This reduces vibration of the mounted wheel and makes your board perform better. The regular Tracker-X is defintely a good truck to start with and -that's my very personal opinion- better than a Seismic. If you are into racing cones sooner or later you will be in need for 8mm axles on whatever truck you might choose.

There are many others but Tracker has the best trucks for a starter setup at a low price.
You might have noticed that you can combine it with a cheap Tracker-S which serves as a rear truck.
