Plus lightweight wheels will make a bigger difference for you now than suspension bits from what I've been told. You can get into the expert ranks before you need suspension.
Whoever told you that doesn't have enough money for suspension. The right suspension is a thing of wonder. Plus I have done adjusted the best I could to the stock shit and it is still not right for me.

Nothing is crash proof, plus I can get used stock replacements for cheaper than any woodcraft replacement. Their skid pads hardly ever protect the case cover from getting rashed up from what I have seen of the ones that have gone down. Waste of money to me to buy something that costs double that still is going to get rashed. They may take a little more of a beating, but they still look like shit after sliding across the asphalt and then you have to chunk out more money to get another skid pad and that is like 1/2 the cost of buying a stock used part on fleabay. The skid pad still doesn't replace the scratched up case cover either.
