paris 195mm trucks?

hi guys,
just wondering what you thought about the new paris 195mm trucks. i ride an 09' avenger and was wonder what the would be like on that. i like freeriding and downhill so i thought they would be a good allround truck. agree/disagree. would you recomend them.? cheers!

You can dh seriously on 180mm paris...i don't see why 195's would be an issue. And Mercado is dhing on indy/cindys which are completely different from paris

Doesn't mad man mercado pretty much prove you can go downhill on anything considering he is bombing on indies?

indy's aren't as unstable as you think, just need to get used to them and maybe play with some wedge and dewedge

actually mercado is riding his own trucks.......a "randal style" (perpendicular) kingpin design.
