Skateboard Cruiser Trucks
Cruiser Trucks to Match Your Style
When selecting cruiser skateboard trucks, there are no fixed regulations on which type of truck you should choose. You can opt for standard kingpin trucks, commonly found on contemporary skateboards, or reverse kingpin trucks, typically utilised for longboards. Nevertheless, most smaller cruisers are equipped with topmount trucks, which are fastened beneath the deck.
For cruisers, trucks are generally somewhat looser compared to those on skateboards or longboards, allowing for rapid turning.
What Size Trucks Are Ideal for a Cruiser?
The general guidance with cruiser trucks is to select a pair as wide as your deck. Generally, the size that complements most cruisers is 150mm, although it is feasible to choose sizes larger or smaller than this.

The size you choose is ultimately up to you, but ensuring sufficient wheel clearance is vital. Trucks that are too large will heighten the chance of wheelbite and diminish your cruising enjoyment.
If you still encounter wheelbite, then consider getting some Cruiser Skateboard Risers.
