I'm thinking about buying the Subrosa Street Rail and was wondering if anyone has had any problems with it breaking or flipping? Thanks!

I've only ridden my friends, and only twice (for both of us), so I can't give an accurate review on how durable it is yet, but we rode it all day the one day and it didn't bend or show any noticeable wear besides scratches obviously. Doesn't flip even when doing hangers(my friend hanger 180ed it and it didn't even look like it was gonna flip) and barely (If at all) moves on the ground. We did 180 grinds into it and I don't think it moved, and if it did it wasn't noticeable enough.

I have one. And it's really useful if you're like me and have no where to ride a lot of the time.

They do move, and they come crooked if you don't build it right haha. But once you get it going its awesome. Definitely worth it if you have the cash and live in a shit hole. Makes a spot automatically more versatile and stuff. The pads didn't stick well, which i had to stick with tape and shit.

As for how it rides, it's great. I SUCK at hard 180s and i can actually do them on it without it moving too! 180 to double pegs aren't super fantastic, but they're not bad at all. I like crank arms on it the most actually! That's the main grind i was stoked on too. The rail is the perfect height to do them and they lock in really well. The rail does move if you bump it the wrong way, obviously if it's not mounted.

They do have connector kits and extensions coming, which I imagine will be rather cheap in comparison to the rail. I can not wait for the extension because the biggest downfall of the rail is that it's not really very long. Another 3-4 feet and it's perfect in every way.

And you don't need plastic to slide it. Metal pegs are great on it, even aluminum ones if you're into that. I learned a lot of jibbery on there too. Like tire slides and stuff like that on it. Goofy but fun stuff.

I bought my first subrosa rail off amazon and i was really impressed with the quality, very durable and smooth to grind. I went aheqd and a second one at dans comp which for some reasson seems to be a little better, It's more stable and it connects perfetcly when attaching both ends unlike the first one wich remained a small gap in between connecting ends. Anyway, i got the kit connecotor and its super fun, i've learned many dofferent tricks and i most definitely recomend it.
