Kudos to Dustm for modding my 6.0 with a spherical pivot. Flawless performance on rough urban riding and pedestrian slalom in Chengdo, Guangzhou, HK and Macau on a recent trip. I had this mounted on my Gbomb and I will post on that later on that thread. I like the machining work and at no time did i ever doubt that the truck would fail. It does increase the performance of the Bennett a notch or so. I think I logged on at least 60-70 honest miles, including riding off curbs and taking lots of knocks.
The bottom bushing needs to be taller than normal to work, although I don't have an exact measurement. I used 1/3 of another bushing and bonded it with glue to an abec tall.

Most pi'jio (beer) is in quart sized bottles. Cans are rare. Beer cans use the old fashion style. Other beverages use modern style- like the myriad of tea based drinks. But i will get a can if i can find one and i am just pitting for a nav check.
Edit: bars sell small bottles by the bucket.
Normally i will get something besides Tsing Tao, whatever the local brew is. But the Tsing Tao there taste better for some reason. And you can use the Gbomb as an opener.
