    from what I heard FOR UCAs are very high maintenance compared to others. i’m not sure how true it is but I would like the peace of mind and not having to maintenance every 5k miles

    chiming in late! (browsing during quarantine) I just switched from Freedom to SPC less than a week ago and SPC is veryyyy nice! noticeable ride quality and straightened out my alignment without going to the shop.
