| Just see how you get on, mine was fine at the height i ran it at but then it was on a stiffer setup..... Speed bumps didnt really cause a problem, it was more humps in the middle of the road that i had to try and find a way round, or go VERY slowly and cause a massive backup (usually followed by me quickly dissapearing as soon as i was clear if the obstical) ![]()
