that deck is named after my local park, not sure how I feel about that
The Razor El Dorado complete isn't a bad deal when you can find it on Amazon for cheap. Today the white one is $53.81 (free shipping). The wheels suck, but the bearings are the best I have. The deck itself is aluminum, though only 108mm wide. The bars are chrome moly but heavy. They are also narrow. I am using them anyway. So for around $50, you get a usable deck, great wheel bearings and axles, a fork and grips. I had another El Dorado deck so I am using that now. Next deck will be something wider.

Had my Protos (with new bearings) for only a week, heard my rear wheel squeaking, had a look and my bearing casing had come off, exposing the ball bearings.. -.- how the fuck does that even happen? Anyway, I emailed the shop I got it from so hoping they can replace it haha

Happens to me all the time. I just buy cheap bearings and replace them whenever they explode on me. The cheap ones tend to last longer for me anyways.

Although the proto bearings that came in my proto wheels that I got like a month and a half ago are still in a really solid condition. Some of my favorite bearings in awhile.

Oh wow.. I've never had it happen before haha. But I got a reply from the shop I bought it from, apparently bearings aren't covered on warranty (obviously) but he'll send me a new "setup" (so I'm guessing new proto with bearings included?) :D

He'll probably just send bearings if he does.

So much for the bargain $49 Razor El Dorado deck. The lightness of a 2.6 lb deck is nice, but this one didn't even last a year. I has one more of these decks on hand because I knew it would eventually beak. But what should I get now? I want a wide deck. Maybe sledge?
