im lloking into a new set-up i just broke my last pair of trucks (titan ti-lites) and figured i should get new ones. the new grind king titanium sound really good bt i was wondering if they are worth the cash. do they really last twice as long? if not id go with the ti-lites again but i thought the way they broke was kinda weird( i cracked completely through the metal covering that you grind on about halfway between the center and the right wheel and then the axle slowly bent and snapped and there are cracks on the metal casing on the rest of the metal casing in the same spot.) i was also looking for new bearings any reccomendations? im thinking reds bones.

It's common for trucks to break at the hangar like that when you grind on 'em a lot. If you're looking to solve that problem then you might wanna look into Independents. Yeah they're heavy, but super durable, I'll guarantee that.

Bones Reds are my bearing of choice right now, they're absolutely worth the $15.

the reds are good bearings a lot of my friends ride them i personally like the swiss bones. as for truck i just ride regular krux and have yet to have any probs. indys are good like jester said i rode them for a long time. I personally dont like the ti lites. my friend rides ti lites and i dont like the way they grind on concrete, seemed really rough and had a tendency to hang up on chunked out sections that my kruxes grind like butter.
