I got A1's but I'm not a fan. Honestly the hills near me are so damn chip sealed I don't even feel safe downhilling on big wheels and trying to grip lines so it's Green kebos and 88 Mcflys and chop...

@Kurt Derow Was too scared of the track to watch tbh
@Nicolas Tognoli big ones up front, rotate side to side.
