Looking at getting a new frame. Need some advice. Looking for a short arse end, which bone cs, sort of a mix between a howler and a Tierra.

Narrowed down to:

Doom wizard
Funday
Or the colt45

Any first hand info on these frames would be rad. Or know of anyone riding these

So I just got my taska ufree from flatland fuel, wheel looks amazing. i held it in my hands and when i spun it forward it felt really gritty and rough...but backwards was really smooth. I looked at an article about maintaining it, and found no matter how much I turned the driver anti-clockwise, it would not come off. Is this something anyone has dealed with? Or should I just email FF and see what they think? I should also mention this will be my first freecoaster....(i've been learning with a cassette the whole time!)

Perform an act of kindness without posting it to social media. Love one another.

Whats the difference between a challenger stem that says 'S&M RACING' and the one that says 'CHALLENGER'? Just an earlier version?

The racing one is thinner than the original Challenger. Uses a 1/4" allen key. The new Challenger is slim like the racing one but takes a 6mm.

If I'm trying to learn handplants over spines and I'm right-foot forward and spin to the left, which hand should I be using?

I guess it's preference, but I'd use my right hand to go straight over it.
