that work? or If anyone knows of a freestyle frame that has a longneck
and 42mm bearings, tell me please
I think it would be VERY difficult to grind down the frame so it fit
well. Maybe if you had access to a milling machine and the skills to
use it, or someone to do it for you.
You could shim the bearing holders w/ a few layers of increasing length
of metal tape. I did this on my Nimbus X to get clearance for a 2.25"
Max Daddy. The bolts loosen much more easily and I'm sure the frame is
weaker this way around the bearings, since there is effectively a
smaller lip over the edge of the bearing.

Ride everywhere and never just ride anywhere. If you can ride where you
are going within a hour, do it, and if you can do a trick 50-75% of the
time do it along the way.
Parafrasing a pro skater when asked for advise to kids who wanted to
get much better and maybee turn pro one day.
