You can flip the hanger on the randals to....

I run randals on my downhill setup but not with the stock 50 degree baseplates i run 35 back and 50 comp/dh front and have never suffered a speed wobble not much difference there.

I have black grizzlies with the pumpkin stock bushings and they ride really well. I have flpped the hangar on the back and it can handle speeds well. Though I hear that the randalls are much the same but can carve better.

both are similar in their riding feel,
randals have more baseplate options and are cheaper,
bear trucks have in general nicer aesthetics, better bushing seats, more axle width options and probably better stock bushings

bears are sick. i just recently got a set and just as a muck around truck, much prefer them to the randals, they have a nicer turn, seem to have a nicer build quality and look the part. flipping the hanger makes a noticeable difference between a faster, or smoother turn. i ditched the pumpkins and replaced with some orange retro bushings and i love em! would definately reccomend over the randals. theyre just more fun

grizzleys are just a fraction lower than randals, and also the way the hanger sits in the grizzley baseplate it lengthens your wheel base just a little bit too. so theres some differences between the two.

i like the feel of grizzleys more than the randals personally
