GT rails whats peoples opinions?
-
@wheelwizard It's something you can totally get used to. One of my mates Alicia sill rides stock rails and she raced in RFTR so I think it's mostly just learning the new feel. That said I much prefer the lowered feel.
I ride WTF Steep & Deep rails. I only picked them because last Black Friday TFL listed the price for those super low. Like actually a steal so I went for them. I've tried standard ones too and they're just as good. Feel super locked in like I used to feel on the XR.
Black Friday is around the corner again so definitely get a set of rails during the sales if you find a set you like.

@lia wonder if they will do the super cheap price again be definitely worth a look.
I have got used to the GT ride I just wondered if I was missing out as I see a lot of riders riding other rails and was wondering what they felt like and the benefits.
Like you said the wtf's give you the lowered ride which you like.
I have seen quite a few riding dub tails as well which you don't have to worry about tilt adjustment with. -
@wheelwizard Fingers crossed. I read somewhere that the super low price was a mistake on their part but like the legends they are they kept the price.
I will say with the WTF's I cannot nudge to save my life. I see others do it but when I try I bottom out the bumper close to the wheel so if it's something you wanna do in future I think it makes it a little harder.
That's my experience though. I end up cheating by locking in the fins and dragging it up and over.

@wheelwizard I have a set of the standard GT WTFs, and I like them. A GT will never ride as nice as an XR platform board, but WTFs will at least give you the best possible ride for the platform.
Note, I also have standard WTFs on my XR platform VESC.

So I made a decision 😊 the sale was too good -
@wheelwizard Those are some nice rails!
Hope they ride great ^-^ -
@lia thank you ^_^ can’t wait to get them on! Just need to find time to fit it all as I have a tyre change to do at the same time but this silly bugger agreed to be IT cover over Christmas!

SHE'S ALIVE!!

@wheelwizard The rails and fender look ace!
How does it ride? -
@lia thank you :) it was a bit weird for the first few minutes as I have a different tyre now as well but you feel more locked in at the back and I’m liking it so far.
