Details
The Aera K5 is upgraded in each and every way from our previous generations. With a larger and longer pivot mating to an made in house pivot cup, the truck has more stability and accuracy, and the hanger and baseplate have been designed such that they add stiffness and strength to the truck with their highly engineered angles, curves, and features. This is the truck of choice by 2x World Champions Carlos Paixão, Kevin Reimer, and World Champion Patrick Switzer.
Widths available:
164mm (uses +4MM axle)
168mm (uses +6MM axle)

- Best truck for going fast Review by Alvaro Cova
these trucks have improved my skating, helping me to push harder, go faster and stay in control all the times. The craftsmanship behind it is off the charts. Well designed, light, strong and precise.

Lo mejor que existe para mi en el mercado hasta ahora (The best thing that exists for me in the market so far) (Posted on 12/12/2017)Rating - Sweet trucks!! Review by Jo Nate
You honestly get what you pay for with these! After putting some k5's on my board it made every carve feel slide worthy. It's been a huge confidence boost for me and towards my progression in dh and free-riding. I ride 46* plates front and back for free-riding, and I also use a 30* plate for when I just want to bomb a hill and get the feel for going faster. I have axles for a 168mm set up and for a 184mm set up. The 184's are currently my favorite setup for going sideways. The 168 axles will stick in a turn fantastically!!I prefer to ride them with a positive rake out of reasons of personal preference.Rating
The biggest reason I chose Aera trucks over other precision trucks on the market was the amount of help and suggestions they have for the setup of their trucks, and the fact that you can customize them however you want, whether you want a narrow sticky truck in the back with a wide curvy truck in the front or you want something symmetrical and versatile, Aera has something for you!

Absolutely Perfect!Rating
Everything that wasn't quite what it could be, with the K4's, has been perfectly improved!
Very grateful and impressed!
Thank you! (Posted on 9/8/2017)- Awesome Review by Marnix Zimmerman
I have a bunch of #$%! to say about these trucks so if you dont want to read it; by far the greatest trucks you can ever purchase, and if you have the money you HAVE TO BUY A SET. Now for the people that want to read on; ive been riding these things for about a month now after making the big switch from cronins. I am not remotely disappointed and the price was totally worth it. I'm riding them on the 42 plates but they have been wedged about 3.5 due to the rocker on a truncated tesseract. I am also a lighter rider so i'm riding the hardcore bushings with a short kingpin nut for freeride and a tall one for downhill(i never use the bottom washer). Love the trucks but do have 2 minute things, you MUST keep the pivot cup well lubricated. If you do not lubricate the pivot cups the trucks will tell by screaching like banshees, this also makes the ride worse. Second is the kingpin clearance, if you dont ride at least 72mm wheels on negative rake you can not kick up your board without hitting the kingpin, and it scratches slightly in the process of removing the hanger.

AAAAAAA++++++ :D (Posted on 4/27/2017)- Smooth Review by Linden
Dope trucks, excellent improvement to the K4, ball pivot, urethane cups, stable, gusssshy turn paired great with some snakes. (Posted on 4/12/2017)Rating - Fantastic trucks! Review by Todd
Just got a new set of K5's. So far I really like them. I have been out riding them trying different bushings and with the hangers regular and flipped. I am looking forward to when they will release the full line of their own bushings. Well engineered trucks! Also, ordering from Skate one is always a great customer service experience! (Posted on 4/10/2017)Rating - The PRIMO Review by Jacob
I am currently riding 46/42 with the 4+ mm axles (164mm) and they are extremely responsive. I am amazed by the amount of tuning that can be done to these trucks. I have been playing with all sorts of bushing duros and brand and continue to find "better feelings" for my riding preference. This truck is also one of the prettiest things Ive ever seen, I mean that arch, no one is going to reverse engineer anything close to a K5 for a long time.Rating
If I had one complaint it is the lack of bushing options currently available from Aera, or Hardcore skate products. I would like to be able to tune my Aera truck using options from Aera.
I have 184 hangers in the mail right now and cannot wait to take those free riding or just fast and drifty.
Solid solid truck! (Posted on 3/31/2017)- Great trucks, great service. Review by John Cookson
1st - the service is fantastic. Over the phone, very helpful to clear up a couple of questions, then on to the site to order. Ordered on Friday morning, here on Saturday (local in SoCal). The trucks are sweet as hell, but I need to continue to dial them in. I have 46/46 and +6MM axles, and although I am no shredder, these feel super responsive and stable. And through FB, I got a little feedback from the pro on bushing set ups. Highly recommended. (Posted on 3/30/2017)Rating
