thats exactly what i wanted to do with glh up front and tww in back. i rode tww in front before and loved it but i want that glh up front cuz it seems like it would stick to my foot better for foot jams

yeah my friend rides 23 offset and airs out fine and does hips all the time at the park we go to. it might be a little twitchy but nothing to worry about at all. its all in your head

best pedals in the universe are the new fit mac pedals. sooooo much grip best pedals I've ever run. and for shoes i suggest etnies maranas. best shoes ever. last a great amount of time, great pedal feel, just perfect in my opinion

I've had deharts and I loved them for street. But those things slide like hell at park and I have no doubt they would slide all over the place on dirt

well i went to this new skatepark that was just build recently and i slid a little bit because it was so slippery but i think everyones tires were sliding there. but it was only like the street section of the park that it was noticeable. but on non slippery ... more »

You don't have to be a dick about it. I was just trying to be smart before buying someting that might not even work on my bike

Oh fuck! Thank you for being sarcastic dude. I went ahead and used my dans rewards on the stolen 22 cranks instead of the thunderbolts right after you told me! I'm much happier with that instead of having a bunch of odyssey parts on my bike like everyone ... more »

damn that sucks. thank you

just get stronger quality parts if you don't already. it might be that you don't have a great bike. when i started biking i was like 100 pounds and broke my pedals, bent my bars, bent my forks and bent my frame. oh and popped about a million tires cuz ... more »

make sure you like tall seat tubes

i have the party bars. i personally think the party bars are the sexiest 4 piece bars out. its just their kinda heavy

another thing that helped me a ton with getting them flat was going faster and carving a lottttt. take a really really sharp turn before you hop. thats what i did, but just to learn them. you'll get used to getting flat and won't have to carve as much ... more »

hawks are only a tiny bit bigger in diameter. refuse are 527mm (20.75") and hawks are 528mm (20.8") . i say you'll be fine. hawks aren't even really that big. my friend has them and their small compared to my chase dehart 2.35

yes they'll fit. the hawks inflated width isn't exactly 2.4, its 2.36. and even though the premium refuse says its 2.25 its inflated width is really 2.36. so if you used to run a 2.25 refuse then you can run the hawks
