86 and 79 headtube

[mattttyler]

I was looking on proride and I saw the 2 different head tubes
What's the difference???

 

[Mickey G.]

I think the difference is the angle of the headtube.

 

[Zach!]

yea its most likely the headtube angle

 

[Rob.]

Yes. 79 is like ultra pro, 86 is ridiculous.

i thought pro ride only made 81.75 (lucky angle) and 79 or 80 (ultra pro angle) one of my friends have the lucky angle and one has the ultra pro angle, but i just think pro ride made a mistake cause there is no way that they made a headtube that is 86 angle and even if they did that would just be realyyyy gay!

yeh it says 86* angle but theres no way it is two of my freinds have it and its like the lucky angle. Get the "86" its waaaay better.

is 86 like superr concave or like almost straight up??

 

[B-Gon]

thats like wayyy gnarlier than a tsi like falling over the bars ^

86 would be almost straight up but its not its really like 82

 

[Billie Rainbow]

i said this somewhere but proride actually copied the lucky deck in stats so that gives me the idea that lucky deck really has a 86 degree ht angle, definitely feels like it.
but dont get 86 unless you wanna die, go for 79.

naw man you can get what ever you want from other companies and it will work with the proride deck and headtube.
You will need to drill a bigger brake hole if you don't buy prorides brake tho, there brake bolt is smaller but thicker so it makes it stronger. I just did that to my fakie brake works great

And get the "86" angle it'll take a day or two to get used to from the razor angle but after that you'll luv it. My friends regretting getting the 79* angle. I have there stem piece not the headtube but there supposed to be the same and i really like it.

believe me its not 86 its the same as luckys and lucky r like 81.75 and a phoenix is 82.5

you get used to it its better.

the difference is:
79 sucks
86 sucks more
lol
nothing against proride cause they have that attachment for putting razor HTs on

 

[Isaac Coy]

both of them are pretty stupid angles

 

[guzzyscoots]

79 is great for tuck-nohanders but $120 for the deck and $120 for the headtube... reallyyy!?
