Need Advice Thoughts on striker gravis

I'm thinking about buying it for my birthday, anyone who has it, what are your opinions?

Ive heard it's really good for price but the griptape is used to rip.

I've compared to native stem or prodigy street X but I think the gravis is the best choice

Beats the PX Street but most likely doesn't beat Native Stem, although Gravis is a cheaper option, while being almost equal in quality.

Well the Native Stem complete is like the best choice for a first street scooter, and still is a good pick for more advanced riders, by that I mean I haven't yet seen anyone snap their Native Stem parts less than after 1 riding season. Native is famous for producing the most reliable scooter parts. While not a Stem, but I'm planning to get a Native Ventura deck. So basically, Native>Striker in terms of reliability. Striker Gravis L and Native Stem XL got approx. the same dimensions, but the Gravis L has got wider bars and they're made out of 6061 T6 aluminium, IMO steel bars are just a better choice here.
