Sabre Trucks
Just got a set of the Sabres as a birthday present from my dad. :)
Thoughts Id pull them apart take a few pics.
They are VERY turny trucks.
They are very nicely finished too.

i just love hte way they feel. i have a set on my pushe board. they have all the 'turniness' of holeys but just lock in stable when at speed. I also have a set on my pagan dh board and love them. super stable with the harder barrel on the bottom.

I think these are some very nice cast trucks. I have yet to ride them properly though.
They look and feel like high quality to me.
@ Dillon.
Nah man, these seem to be pretty light too.
Drop Wedge (9ply) + Kahas and alligators approx 3.65kgs
Kebbek Smoothcut + Sabres and Zig Zags approx 3.65kgs

Is this truck good for free ride? or only good for bombing

Have you tried putting elims in the boardside bushing seat?? If so do they fit well?

Pretty sure my brother Pete was running them with an 87a elim for little while. Seemed to fit alright, quite restrictive though.

Elims fit well boardside and are a good way to stop the wheelbite you can sometimes get with these trucks

@Golf,
I rarely do any "bombing" mainly just carving round and the Sabres are great, the Pump Station was
set up as a GS course prob 2.3rds were riding their slalom boards and the rest on longer boards.
@Matthew/Steve,
I've got Sabre green barrel boardside, harder than i'd normally run (i'm 100kg),
to hold the hangers away a bit to stop wheelbite.

what are you guys talking about......
elims fit crap
sooooo muck fricking slop!!
like at least 3mm
wish venom would make the bottom bit of the elim wider so that there isnt soo muck play in the trucks...

try a harder duro elim. No slop at all in mine

really, i have blue, orange, purple and ive seen reds as well, all of them are at least 2mm smaller in diameter on the bottom than a normal barrel, like if you were to only have the hanger and you put the bushing in, the seat holds the barrel nice and snug, but as soon as you have an elim in there, you can move it about 3mm from side to side....

The kingpin keeps them totally centralised once fully assembled regardless of gaps when you put the bushing just in the hangar. Maybe you ride your trucks really loose and that can account for the slop. I use green elims cranked down to just a bit more than medium and I get none. These trucks are awesome, Love em
