It's got a good hit, and it's tractable and predictable - plus it's got great brakes for stopping in little arenas. You have to make the suspension stiffer for landing from the big jumps we do, and it's nice to have the strong wheels (my front spokes have a bigger diameter than the stock rear spokes). I have custom grab handles for tricks, and the bars are low with no crossbar to make it easier to get my feet through." eN eye. _ n _ _ os • DECEMBER 12. 2001 73
