    Default bear 852's or 10" chargers

    Im going to get a motion bigfish and I have heard good things about each of
    the trucks, but I would like to get some second opinions.

    I would the board to cruise and carve, slide, and sometimes bomb a slope.
    I have heard that the chargers don't perform as well as the bears when it comes to
    stability, but I don't know about the carving ability of the bears compared to the
    chargers.

    Any info is helpful.

    852's for sure. i have them on my kebbek and perfect for crusing and pumping but when you need to bomb a hill just flip the hangers your good to go! mos def i'd grab the 852's for all that but if you want to get more serious about dh then grab the 42 baseplates

    and also i have "heard horror stories" about chargers being cheaply built and its sad because stims don't fit as good on chargers.

    VOTE BEAR!

    maybe you got your bear yet... but for anybody interested; I rode chargers for a long time now I they beat any other not precision truck you name as a stable carving truck.

    now i'm testing a grizzly with different setups and it feels different; so I yet have to AB them and decide wich I like the most.

    If any of you are interested, reply and I'll post my experience bout them.

    But for now I can tell you If you're interested in stable n agile fast carving both are great Just change the big orange bushings in the new bears for some good cones. Charger's stock are great. (I'm talking about the USA chargers...)

    Oh, what gabriel says about broken chargers may be bout the new china made...

    Stims? If you're into downhil get bears for sure, and put some stim like shaped if you like.

    For stable and agile carving you shouldn't care bout stim shapes at all. And for that; I'll tell you my thoughts bout both trucks.
