Default RE: lowering

If you do, it it a lot better to lower the front, otherwise the front will sit a lot higher, and will be more difficult to control. I lowered my girls bike, but she isnt tearing up corners either,

This is with both the front and rear done.

Its 3 in the rear and 2 in the front. The bike it level now. Also, you have to buy a new kickstand or cut the existing one and take about an inch out and weld it back together.
