If you have the trucks, why don't you set them up and try them out yourself?

**Bomb303** · 11-16-2009 05:08 PM

pros: lean to steer.
cons: lots of bearings, slow wheel changes.

Cuz i'd like to keep them new in case they are not good for that and sell em... i guess i could do that but id like to do some "research" before hand and see what everyone who has tried it thinks...

Lean to turn.... Figured that out. Lots of bearing...Done it before.. how do they perform standing? around corners standing?

CO local has taken them 70+, and down many mountain passes. I cant speak from experience, but stand up skateboard them, you can.

**Bookworm** · 11-16-2009 06:49 PM

1. Don't be a whiney bitch.

2. They are good for standup, yes. A little wide for my taste but good they are.

Or...you could set the trucks up and go try it out yourself? I'm going to be really honest, there's a super good chance you won't be able to sell the Comp 2 hangars right away, so you might as well ride them.

Also, it's demanding tones like that that will deter people from answering you...just as an fyi, so breathe, k?

Lol. He asks a simple question and he gets bashed on.....what's the point of bashing on him if your not going to give him advice. If you can't give him advice just go look for another thread. Isn't this what forums are for? To ask for opinions and recommendations.
