<p>the answer is simple RONIN.</p>
<p>They're more tunable (more baseplate configs. and hanger widths, that sort of thing).</p>
<p>Grizzly's are the strongest out of the three, but have no baseplate options.</p>
<p>And Aeras are super overpriced for what your getting.</p>

<p>Pretty sure someone said this earlier but im to lazy to look back but here goes .... <br/><br/>When you are at the level where a CNC truck might suit your riding you will be experienced enough to make an educated decision. This will be based on knowledge you will then have regarding what different rakes, angles, heights and widths of different trucks and what they will do for you. <br/><br/>There is not such thing as the best truck for a rider, rather a rider will learn to use any given truck to it best potential.</p>
<p></p>
<p>So untill you can actually afford one of these truck you dont need to know anything. Learn the difference between a caliber, paris and bear first, cause that all you can afford and they all have differnt heights, rakes, and widths just like CNC trucks. <br/><br/><br/></p>

<p>Bro I didnt say they felt bad, I was simply saying they feel very different to the k3, or any other truck, even you would probably say that I'd assume, they definately dont have slop, but I guess I've only actually ridden gaydos's down a hill.

<p>most trucks are epic but only come alive at high speeds, the best part of the K4s is how responsive they are at LOW speeds without having to loosen them right off and run the risk of wheelbite. i run the 50deg and they are stable as hell at high speeds (thats because speed wobbles dont exist) and are so responsive when they need to be. i would compare the feeling of the ride to Paris trucks, which is somewhat unheard of in CNC trucks.</p>
<p></p>
<p>K4s ARE the answer, and are by far the most versitile truck on the market to date. accept no other imitation and listen to no one when they say they feel weird, they arent good, they have slop or anything like that as those people are far less experienced and do not know what they are talking about.</p>
