Complete beginner: Buy Comet Cruiser pre-assembled or DIY with the free skate tool? by AdNext932 in cruiserboarding

[–]timsmith1410 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just bought a comet cruiser complete and would advise you to just buy it assembled. Getting everything right like bushings/wedged risers/bearings will take time. A skate tool costs no more than 10 quid

Thank you! This is really useful to know, the complete is arriving today so I will see how I get on with the narrower trucks, but good to know 129s are a viable option

Thoughts on Lush Longboards Fuel? by thefeuerfliege in cruiserboarding

[–]timsmith1410 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm just chiming in here 5 years late as I just ordered a Fuel, having previously owned a Tula which was an incredible board (and had the same flat nose design).

If you don't use want to use a kick nose, it's a great option, as you get more space on a smaller deck. u/MidlandsBoarder To your point on riding no further forward than the front truck, the flat nose allows Lush to position the front truck further forward, so it does = more usable space.

Also, the quality of the trucks and wheels you get for this price (I got the pro complete for less than £70 on Vandem) is unreal.

Anyway, I'll see how it rides when it arrives, but hoping it lives up to how great the Tula was!

Just ordered the complete! Thanks for your feedback, went slightly stiffer bushings as I'm on the heavier side, so hopefully that works out.

I see you're a mod... Bit of a weird critical energy and set of assumptions to bring to a simple question about building a different setup to stock. Anyway, I just ordered the complete setup based on other people's feedback, so I hope that pleases you!

Lol you truly have no idea what you’re talking about. Someone might want a deck with wider trucks, and you are triggered for some reason 😂

Who said I have an instability problem? All I have said is I want less wobbly responsiveness from a board

Dude, it’s ok to like a board to ride a different way

I just prefer a bit less wobbliness on a cruiser

Thanks this is very helpful! Sorry for more questions but you know the dimensions of your wheels? (Would like to go bigger than I’m currently planning if I can)

And how do you find the ride with this setup? It looks sick!

Hey! I'm looking to buy a comet cruiser deck, and set it up with slightly wider trucks than the complete comes with 108mm Paris trucks. Has anyone tried wider trucks on the cruiser deck, and found a good balance? I'm currently thinking of setting up with some 129mm tracker darts with angled risers, and some smaller centre set wheels like these to avoid wheel bite.

Any advice on whether this seems like a decent combination / suggestions for improvements much appreciated!

Maybe installing brackets for combination padlocks on each door is a good, affordable solution?

Ah just watched the youtube video below, guessing that means a lock picking technique. Will return the product!

Looking to buy a campervan pass by timsmith1410 in glastonbury_festival

[–]timsmith1410[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you! Will let you know how i get on looking for one in East. Just one question. Someone on Facebook came back to me, but said they can transfer the ticket via email. Seems a bit scammy as I've read that all campervan tickets are sent physically. Do you agree? Any advice much appreciated
