i dont think any stunters run aluminum cuz theyre light, its cuz theyre cheap and easy to get.

+1 on that. I run a 15 /62 combo on the f4i it makes learning circles much easier the bike goes nice and slow and does not stall out. but i only run around town and in the lots. If you go on the high way with this setup you will want to shoot yourself

im sick of squids giving out advice like theyve been stunting for 10 years.

The best, hands down. You have to be a authorized dealer to get one (which I am). Hit me up if you want one. Prices range from $45-$70 w/color being $10 extra

I have a PMP and love it, good price and great craftsmanship. It also looks cool when the sun glares off it.
