Need info on District V2.

[Kieran Mayhew]

Basically I want one because they look lush.

But can anyone tell me a few things please:

- What is the HTA?
- How does the "No Noise" brake work? Pics would be ever so helpful.
- Do the "No Noise" plastic axle spacers actually work?

And can someone post some close up pics of the deck in general. Extrusion, headtube etc.

Thanks.

The angle is 81.5.
The brake is aluminum, with a pin through it holding it to a large piece of rubber. The rubber is held in place by the axle, the tighter you make the axle then the more resistive the brake is. The plastic spacers DO actually work, too. I'd post pictures, but I no longer have one.

Thanks man! Do they have a nice feel for stuff like Inverts and Fingerwhips? Because they are probably the tricks I whore the most lol.

 

[Joe Riley]

It's the easiest thing in the world to fingerwhip, and yeah inverts feel pretty nice, too. If you like pro models, you'll like these. It's the most simiar deck to a pro I've ever ridden, and I've ridden a lot of different decks.

Yeah districts are my favorite decks right now. I love the feel sooo much.

 

[Joe Riley]

The only problem really is, they don't last long enough.. AND some decks feel steeper than others. Some feel flimsy. They don't all feel exactly the same, even though they're made to be exactly the same.

 

[Kieran Mayhew]

But I thought the V2's were supposed to be quite strong?

 

[nitroRCs]

I thought that the HTA was 82.5?? And the V2's and strong but a lot have still been broken. The day district puts there headtube through the deck that's the dry they will have a strong deck.

Stronger, yes, but not so strong.

okay so i received a district fo christmas and I love it, I dialed the brake with an odi flange i just stuck it under the brake compression and hammered everything else in, its really nice actually you just have replace the flange... every once in awhile..
MY PERSONAL OPINION: the district feels stronger then the ultra pro very similar to a wider Old A in comparison ... in deck feel..
