get a scotts or gpr.. i had a hyperpro rsc and that $hit would get in the way.. that piece looks even bigger than the hyperpro.. spent a couple extra bucks more & get a good one

Shindy ones are garbage, they feel like you tightened the steering stem bearings too much and thats it. Matris ones are pretty good but not as user friendly and adjustable as the GPR. At my shop I sell GPR 10 to 1 over anything else

stay away from matris, i had the eye joint or whatever its called break and I couldnt get any place in the usa to service them.

Seal Clubber · 11-26-2006, 01:20 AM

even for 100$ its no good?

Raider9170 · 11-26-2006, 04:02 AM

If you feel like giving it a try for $100, give it a whirl ,it's just money, right??. Actually two bros used to sell the matris stuff and they were pretty easy to get serviced but anymore it could get tricky......that guy on ebay probably bought out all of the ones they had left.
