Ive got em, and all i have to say is god dam ive never seen a more bad ass looking truck in my life.
the new ultra light trucks have the same geometry as the old smokies but are much better, improved pivot points, and i just cant stop stareing at them, as soon as i get premission to post pics of them from Mike at Landy then they will be up in a second.
i am pairing these new lighter trucks with my ultra light deck, ill have the demo model at the burli race this weekend.

Dayum those are nice. I personally like the two tone. Now I'm sure landy's done their testing but man are they ever skinny at the cutouts on the hangar....

I agree those look soooooo awesome but unsafe. Aluminum is not that strong, I would be VERY worried. We break aluminum thicker then that everyday at work when parts get dropped. The angles they are cut at thou will make it imposible for them to get bent, but breaking is still very posible.

They look purdy.
Hopefully they were tested more than the first few batches of grizzlies...

very soon it will be a good time for people looking to get a set of smokies but cant afford new. as soon as the new gen ones are released the fish will be full of old gen ones and im sure you will get a wicked deal on them.
im a fan of the two tone.
you may not be able to tell me, but Napes, how did you get your hands on them?

This is just a light version of the old smokies... I saw a few sets at DB I also saw the new smokies at DB they are much much different then this
Super cool for your light deck though, I've always bitched about the weight
