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

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.
