Independent 169 Stage 11 Forged Titanium silver skate trucks are designed with Independent’s superior and precise turning geometry for increased stability when landing tricks, better "speed-wobble" control and decreasing the chances of "wheel-bite". This makes Independent stage 11 trucks one of the most versatile skate trucks on the market, excelling in vert and transition, street and park skating, and general cruising and carving.
Titanium axles offer the lightest Independent hanger since Skatan said, "Let there be vert". Titanium is 40% more dense than steel and is much higher in corrosion resistance and heat tolerance.
Forged baseplates have an aligned grain structure, offering greater strength in specific directions. This makes forged baseplates a super strong option. Forged baseplates are lighter than their cast cousins, and more slimline so you can run 7/8" bolts perfectly.
The stage 11 trucks also have improved grind clearance to avoid grinding down your kingpin, as well as an improved "Yoke" (divider round the bushing seat top and bottom) reducing hang-up potential for grinds like smiths and feebles.
