If you think Kahalanis feels good with Khiros, you`re really in for a surprise with Venoms! The difference is nothing short of dramatic! I set mine up with 90a`s all around and the Venoms made the Kaha`s come alive, the 90a Venoms feels softer than the 90a Khiros, but the amazing rebound makes for a totally different feel, my trucks turns way better, but still feels solid and stable in a tuck because of the rebound holding you back.


Zak:
How much do you weight? I'm trying to figure out my set-up of Venom bushing for my Dervish with Paris. I weight about 140lbs.

I was thinking bout barrel 85A bottom and conical/barrel 81A top. Should I bump the duro up to 90A bottom/85A top?

kroner is getting weak lately, luckily the dollar is worth something somewhere right now hahaha... if you've been following currency at all, the SEK (swedish kroner) was at a rate of 6 to 1 USD in late july/august, now it's up to 7.09 to 1, which means what was $332.50 USD in july is now ~$281.38 USD (kahalanis are therefore way cheaper than they were before).

if you want a deal just use paypal to pay in SEK instead of USD. gotta love economics.
