    What kind of riding are you going to do? I weigh about 200 and that is kinda hard for me. THen again, I like soft bushings.
    At the top of a hill at a very rapid speed there's only one place to go.
    At the top of a hill at a very high speed there's nowhere to go but down.

    At 140lbs I would run a much softer Elim. You would probably do fine with an 85a elim and 85a barrel. You could even drop a duro down on the elim.

    Really we can't say for sure. You will need to just try it out and see. You may want to pick up a bunch of barrels and elims in different duros and try out a bunch of different combos.

    For your weight I wouldn't go over 90a though. I would however start with 85/85 and then go from there. I would try some 81a elims too. Elims are wider are sort of like having a barrel in a duro up. I suggest trying combos of the below. Maybe throw in 87a in the mix too.


    85/85 barrel/barrel
    81a elim/85a barrel
    85/85 Elim/barrel
    87a/85a barrel/barrel
    87a/87a barrel/barrel
    90/85 barrel/barrel

    4X 85a barrel, 2x 90a barrel, 4x 87a barrels, 2x 85a elim, 2x 81a elim,

    Don't you worry your pretty stripped head we're gonna get you back to Tyson and your cozy tiger bed.
