Can you feel a big difference between the lucky and flowmaster headtube angle?

I'm curious because i want to get a flowmaster and it says the headtube angle is 83 degrees and my friend just got a lucky pro and I hate it, it's so steep and it says the headtube angle is 81.5.

From what I hear, Lucky supposdly has ben dishonest about their headtube angles according to someone who has ridden a Lucky, TSI, and Ultra Pro all for good amounts of time.

TSI's are too much for me, I've never had a chance to ride a lucky but I won't cuz the HT angle is always debated on, I'd say wait for the district or get the TSI freestyler, both have a HT angle of 81.5 and it feels amazing. Lucky says that the HT angle is 81.75. if you dont like that then you shouldnt be wanting a flowmaster

yeah i know 2 people who im 100% positive used a pro model headtube on their lucky deck and the HT angle is like 86*, while the flowmaster is legitly 83*

so yes, you can feel the difference.

This lucky headtube debate is ridiculous, either the headtube angle is inconsistent from deck to deck or someone needs to measure it properly and find out the truth.

NOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! the headtube angle is between 81 to 82. that's final everyone stfu. just email lucky. my boy chuckie already talked to them. dmazz had a tsi and he didn't like the headtube angle so he bought a lucky and he said it's a lot less steep.

idk. lucky feels more than they say. it wouldnt surprize me if it varies from deck to deck. i want a 1 piece with 80 degree angle though

I'd be down for 81.5, the Ultra Pro angle (~80) is too slack, while TSI's with 83 are a bit steep for my liking. The only Lucky I've ridden was steep, like, really steep.

its completely inconsistent, i am absolutely sure. if you say that, 2 of my friends have more than 85* angle HTs. lucky tbh has no idea about the angle and it litterally varies and u have to hope for the best
