    no, because flipping your hangers doesn't change the angle.

    I run *50 front and *40 back, I reckon that averages out to *45 overall.

    lol also pwnd

    all it does is change the relationship of the axle to the bushings, and lower the hight. not the angle of the turn. that is determined by the pivot, and the angle of the kingpin. the hanger still turns the same exact way, its just the leverage changes because the axles are further away from the bushings. lol. flipped 42*s are still 42*s.

    i personally hate flipped trucks, feels like poop imho. not hating on those who do, i just don't like them. i like all the leverage i can get out f my trucks. its not loose trucks, but responsive trucks that save lives. lol

    on that note, i like Crails, but don't own a set myself. have all the trucks i need to fill my quiver.

    This is a great thread idea, and even funnier responses. I'm not sure what pivot angle my Cindys end up being but I think the front one is just about 45º. It's awesome.

    Turbo fail!

    I'm running some Sabres on me soft wheel sliding board, they're RAD.

    45 seems nice, not as much lean as a 42 so it feels to much, not as much wibbly turn as a 50 so it's stable. Lovely.

    Sabres with Sphericals. Maybe the perfect combo of price, performance and er 'prettiness' ?
