A base da Indy

A Independent, marca de trucks mais respeita do planeta, possui uma história inigualável. Isso fica bem expresso em seu livro "Built to Grind", que contou os melhores momentos dos já passados 25 anos de existência da marca.

Para revelar mais curiosidades sobre seus produtos, o Instagram da Independent Trucks postou um protótipo, feito de madeira, da base que originou um de seus primeiros trucks, lançado em 1977. A raridade você confere na foto abaixo:

INDEPENDENT TRUCKS: STEVE ALBA

Steve Alba doesn’t quit; he’s never even thought about it. He’s been tearing backyard pools, parks, and pipes on Indys since 1978 and wouldn’t trade ‘em for anything. Almost 35 years later he’s still hopping fences and draining the world’s best swimming pools. We wanted his Limited Edition trucks to be tough looking and have classic “Salba” vibe so they have polished hangers with black baseplates, Indy orange cushions, black hardware and Salba tiger inspired Bar / Cross pad print. Comes with Salba tiger hangtag.

New 159s are unquestionably the best combination of features and geometry Independent has ever produced.

By combining the best modern performance features and iconic look of our Stage 10 design with newly reworked geometry based on Independent Stages 5-7, offering superior turning and stability, Independent has again created a truck to which all others will be judged.

New 159s feature lightweight Hollow Body hangers with No Hang-up Yoke and Pivot Cavity, heavy duty 4140 Chromoly Steel Axles and Grade 8 Kingpins.

Every component has been carefully designed and tested to be responsive, light weight, and durable.
159s have 156mm hangers with 8.75 inch axles and are 55mm tall at center axle.

Independent trucks are Guaranteed for Life!
