I rode them for about 6/7 years and loved them. Took a hell of a lot of abuse and didn't effect them at all. Required no maintenance once they were set up I never touched them again.

Yup, they're designed for kiteboarding. They are completely closed off from the elements, so no salt water, sand and dirt can get in and ruin things. Strange looking trucks, I'd like to have a go on them.

Oh yeah, those things are pretty awesome.
the guy who made them was on silverfish a while back, and I got to pick his brain a little bit.
I just forgot they were named revolution.

I know they look sweet and are lighter than my matrix trucks but as they are designed for kite boarding does anyone know if they withstand abuse of mountainboarding ?

Yes! They can withstand mountainboarding! A few of us in the fens have been riding them from when they first came out including prototypes and never managed to break or damage them.

I know someone selling some revo's at the moment. They are attached to a trampa with raptor bindings. £200 but might be negotiable. Not sure if he wants to split
I can put you in touch if anyone is interested

Fair enough. I am surprised they are still in production.
