heres something you dont see every day,or never! nos radikals in the orig box :shock: not a particularly sought after truck but a nice bit of history, i remember the ads but never saw anyone ride any back in the day,presumably they cost a fortune but peanuts by todays prices :lol:

Those are stunning and real collectors items, would look really good on nice Quicksilver deck.

They make Wasps Trucks look comparatively common and $700 nos Gullwings expensive.

yes its strange how something this rare doesnt command top money but then, like you say, common old split axles do :lol: i suppose its because collectors want what they couldnt afford back in the day and radikals wouldnt have been on anyones list :lol:

Yep lovely them bet there’s none of them on our shores , watch punkboy say he’s got 3 nos sets of them :lol: , yes it’s weird what fetches money and what doesn’t , popular stuff like you say gullwing split axles always sell at a decent figure but proper rare stuff if it doesn’t have the popular title people aren’t bothered about , I like the wackier stuff nowadays really , like the rare stuff which fetches good prices like shogo kubo airbeams etc but I equally like stuff like Steve it’s only money has collected U.K. decks which probably hardly sold when new but are actually a lot rarer than the popular sellers like fiberflex etc , rebound trucks are another thing I wouldn’t mind but you hardly see them in uk

I've just got these on a vintage Turner Summerski, Radikal DSX trucks. These came after the three bushing ones apparently.
