Can you take preorders?

MBS · February 20, 2019, 12:58am

Maybe we’ll put them on mbs.com a little early for pre-order… will discuss it.

Can’t Wait!!!

Will motor mounts for the original trucks fit?

Andy87 · February 20, 2019, 10:34am

would be great if we could get an opportunity to pre order! Guess they will be sold out pretty fast. Looks promising! definitly need a set!

@MBS they will come with the hollow shaft like the pro version or with the solid shaft?

MBS · February 21, 2019, 10:59am

Hollow shaft on these.

MBS · February 21, 2019, 11:02am

Yes. The hanger is the same as the Matrix II and Matrix II Pro trucks we’ve been making for the past few years. Motor mounts will still fit.

Any way will be able to buy the metal baseplate only?

Edit: I know now. Yasss.

Damn, I was hoping for solid axles, is that an option?

Will you guys be selling regular matrix II with sold axle and metal top truck?

ninTHIENdo · February 22, 2019, 2:25am

Not sure what it is or looks like, but I’m in for the Dylan Warren II pro board…

MBS · February 22, 2019, 2:52am

Oh, interesting. I haven’t planned a solid axle version at this point but always happy to consider it. In the meantime, you could buy the normal Matrix II trucks (solid axle), then upgrade them with the Metal top trucks. It might cost a little more that way, but not too bad. Have you had problems with the hollow axles?

MBS · February 22, 2019, 2:59am

Man, it looks GOOD!!! Can’t wait to release it. Where did you get word of it?

Ixf · February 22, 2019, 3:05am

Whoa whoa whoa… timeline?

370HSSV · February 22, 2019, 3:06am

No, these will be my first set of channel trucks.

I am always under the impression that the solid axles are stronger and more durable than hollow ones, I have nothing to back it up, and it might be wrong, just my thoughts.

I’d love to hear your professional opinions about which axle are stronger and more durable or they both are?

Ixf · February 22, 2019, 3:07am

They probably are… but the better question is are hollow 12mm axles are strong enough… trampa use 12mm hollow too. I actually haven’t heard of any axle bending or breaking… I could be wrong

MBS · February 22, 2019, 3:20am

Early March release for the DWII - same as the Metal Matrix II trucks. Release video will be sick! Stay tuned.

Gaza65 · February 22, 2019, 3:29am

Yea I’ve bent a trampaboard hollow alxe and I’m thinking the same solid axle…trampaboard does say solid axles are stronger

Ixf · February 22, 2019, 3:30am

damn… how did that happen? I run their 9.5mm titanum axle. I did have a few crashes they look like they are tiny bit off but other then that no issues yet
