Anyone ride Thunders with conical top, barrel bottom instead of the stock conical top and bottom?
i did for a little less than a year, the double conical style was too twitchy to me.
ace bottom/bones hard top with shaved plastic bit/flat washers
ace bottom/stock 90a top shaved/flat washers
these both worked for me and created a deadzone before the responsive turn hit. i was running bigger wheels than i should have (53s on a 51mm tall truck) but the wheelbite became a lot more manageable.
the "negative" is that the deadzone feel only fully lasts as long as it takes the ace bushing to break in. the only truck that stays stable after the bottom gets blown out is venture.
definitely would recommend trying it out in your thunders though
