    Sounds awesome to me.

    For future reference, don't bump your own thread not even 10 minutes after making it.

    Go with the Crail/JimZ bundle and save some dough. Sure, the trucks are silver, but they're just trucks, after all. Swiss bearings are nice, but your tuck/technique will get you more speed than spendy bearings. Reds are just fine.

    BigZigs might get wheelbite. I can always toss in some extra risers, though.

    i know that.
    but there is no "normal" height for a top mount. It depends on wheel size, trucks, etc.

    get your facts straight.
